Right now I am in the midst of a project.  I have a dresser laid out in the basement receiving its first coat of primer.  It was stained a honey”ish” color, and we are going to be using it for my daughter Grace.  So, here’s the deal.  We didn’t like the color, and we didn’t like the handles.  We liked the dresser overall though…  It has great potential.  It is in decent shape.  It needs a little love from the gorilla.  That is the gorilla glue… But, it will be a solid piece of beautiful furniture once we are done with it.  

Yesterday I sanded it down, roughed up the finish a bit so that it will be ready to accept the primer that I applied today.  

It is a work in progress.  

It is not perfect yet.

It is just like me.  

I am a work in progress.  I am not perfect yet.  

Every single one of us has incredible potential.  We have the ability to be incredible or just honey colored stained wood.  God has given each one of us and incredible gift- LIFE.  What are you doing right now, today, to increase the beauty that God has instilled in you.  What are you doing to refinish your life so that it radiates God’s glory?  What are you doing today to take care of the gift that God values at a cost non of us could ever pay?

I’m working on refinishing my life…

  1. I am striving to be a loving Husband to my wife and working to be the best Mailroom Supervisor I can be. Still it is my desire to encourage people to make wiser basic financial desicions. I am praying about how God will fit me into this. Thanks again for the thoughts, and good luck on the cabinet.

  2. By the way, what is that green creature next to my name. What are some of his characterisitics? I have never seen it before?
