Like me, life comes at us fast, but it's the "stuff that life is made of" that dictates our futures. I've often shared that I hate going through the difficulties in my life, but I love the person I've become. Just like my kitchen, it takes time and preciseness. Remember, it might seem like God is taking His time refinishing you, but remember God don't make no junk. He wants you to be polished, beautiful vessel for his kingdom.
For those of you who say I've had great patience over this remodel, I say to you, I almost hate to see it come to an end. The adventure of each day has given me something to look forward to and to marvel at the intricacies of many of the projects. My master builder is doing a great work on my kitchen - How about your Master Builder? Are you allowing Him the time and flexibility to do a great work in your life?
