 A lot has been written about new beginnings.  We know as people of faith that God is always up to something new.  Change is not always easy but it is necessary.  God, thank goodness, remains the same, but He surely does not want us to stay stagnantly in one place.  He wants us growing and changing!

One fun aspect about change for us is purging, packing, and then unpacking in a new space.  We have a beautiful, truly lovely, new home.  We decided to get creative when we moved in six weeks ago and turn a formal dining room into a home office for Steve.  I envisioned it as a room with lots of light (it has a big window that lets in lots of natural sunshine); a peaceful place for reflection, reading and music.  We found (ok, I found) some unique guitar hangers which I purchased as a gift for Steven when we moved in and today we got them installed.  What do you think?


 The room, like us, is still a work in progress. We will post more photos as we progress...

 What area of your life are working on currently?  We all get what we create; building good lifestyle disciplines yields positive results, typically.  Eat healthy, exercise, reading, time in daily prayer and Bible reading, etc.  Putting time and energy into relationships.  All the truly important aspects of life.

In this week's message Steve urged us to take a step of faith in a new direction and to leave behind an old, unhealthy (yes, sinful) habit or practice.  I was challenged yet again to go deeper - what can I do as my own work in progress to continue to be created by Him?  How about you?
