I have snuck away for a minute to update you on some things.
I was able to sleep in until 10 this morning which was great! We got to eat some fresh pastries from town and oatmeal that was delicious.
AFter that we took a walk to one of the other missionaries' houses (The Farmers) and got to spend time looking at their backyard. Here are a few pictures/words of insight I received while there.
I just got done sanding part of the outside/inside of a window frame that will be painted later. WE have a surprise for tonight that I can't wait for!
There's a hole in the rock on the side of the creek, how I wish I could hide in the stillness there. An outsider, beauty no one takes time to look at, ah but to look through at the beauty surrouding. What natural beauty this waterfall carries as water runs over the rocks covered with moss. I relate to the hole in the side of the rock, where alone I can sit and take in His beauty.
Oh meadow brook why you break//For love that's lost, my breath you take//With white and brown mixed deep within//My heart relates, my soul, my sin//For while you bring much beauty by//Such peace and sorrow within me cry//My mouth alone can speak no more//As your waters teach my heart to soar//Oh meadow brook why now you break//For my heart and soul and shame to take
This is the Art Factory that I'm living/learning from! They bought it for close to $300,000! It's incredible.
This is the window area I was working on sanding
God Bless You all!
These are beautiful photos! I am so excited for you. The Art Factory looks so awesome! I'm so happy you're soaking in the little blessings that God has given you.
