The Daily Ricky

My wife and I are buying a much larger home, my in-laws are also moving in and helping with the bills.

We have been in the process of remodeling now, for a few weeks.

If not for the help of our church family, we would never be able to move in.

We have pulled up carpet, torn down a wall, painted and torn out cabinets. I am amazed at the church and their participation.

Most houses in this town have problems with their foundation, it’s the Mississippi clay. Rather you are on a slab or conventional foundation; you have problems.

Well whoever built this house knew what he was doing, he brought in loads of dirt and packed it down, then he poured the slab. In thirty years, this house is one of the few that doesn’t.

It’s so important to build your house on a good foundation.

Sometimes the Holy Spirit wants to do some remodeling on us just as we have on this house. You see, we could have moved in like it was but, we want to make a few changes.

When the Holy Spirit moves in, He remodels as He goes. Sometimes, according to how much stuff He has to change; as in my case. It’s a life long thing.

As a Christian, we enter into The Way with a lot of garbage and ffor us all it takes a life time to filter through the mess.

Lord, we all are in desperate need of remodeling, come Holy Spirit and mold us like clay! Amen!!
