Mr. Roy and I (mostly Mr. Roy) just finished redoing our laundry room. Picture old vinyl flooring, shutters on the window and open shelving on the walls. U-G-L-Y! New ceramic tile on the floor, new lighting, new paint on the walls, new curtains, new cabinets and it's a thing of beauty. Mr. Roy and I seem to be in perpetual fix-it-up mode; Lowe's is our favorite place to browse and dream.
But the real home improvement around our house came a few years ago when the Lord got hold of Mr. Roy and brought him closer. It is magnificent to know I am serving the Lord beside my husband. I sometimes am moved to tears with joy sitting in church beside my husband instead of with my friends whose husbands also stay at home on Sunday. I love to pray with Mr. Roy, coming before the Lord's throne in unity as God intended. And while Mr. Roy and I are in perpetual fix-it-up mode in this aspect of our lives, too, that's okay because we are doing it together.
Life is good. Thank you, Lord.
Your laundry room is beautiful! You and Mr. Roy are some kind of special. fifi
