~ His Designer's Touch ~
We are moving in a few weeks = No posts on Held By Him + nothing new on Scrapbookers Bubble Bath + lots us unanswered emails :)
Wow, No one warned me buying a house would bring more sleepless nights than selling! I am up for the umpteenth night in a row planning colors, furniture, closet storage, and where I can hide my laundry between loads :) I have become a 'closer' at the local fabric store, a 'lurker' at the magazine rack at the local drug store, and, a 'regular' at the paint counter at the hardware store.
This morning, as I tried to figure out where in the world I was going to put my husbands seemingly 100 ft wide big screen TV, I had this beautiful thought....
I came to Christ as empty as my new house is. The walls of my life were bland and bare and my heart was as dirty as my new kitchen fridge, yet, my potential is unimaginable. Just as I can picture the beauty in my new home once I get my hands on it, He sees me not as others see me, but, as He planned for me to be.
We are each created with a blueprint of awesomeness, all we need do, is allow His Designing Hand access to our heart and life. And, as I look back over my life, I can see the beauty in His work and the love in His hands ~ my words can not begin to express the appreciation for the amazing makeover!
We can only begin to imagine the plans He has for us ~ A Designer's Touch that outdoes our wildest dreams. I pray I can daily be a life under construction that reflects His work and brings others to Him.
So, think of me as I try to make a "princess bedroom", a "baseball dugout bedroom", a "Steeler's football field bedroom", a "hockey, cooking and army bedroom" and, oh yeah, find someplace in my living room to fit that big screen TV :)
