The Kitchen Timer



Have you ever prayed for something and gave up after what you would consider too long of a wait?


On May 19th 2005


my husband tore apart our kitchen, then decided fixing the outside of the house to be more important.


He didn't do that either.


I prayed for patience with his skills

for his stubborn pride

Strength not to hurt him.

I am sure he prayed for me to stop whining

It Hit me

and hit me hard

I have

NO

cupboard doors

BUT

I have food

My impatience and whining for 3 years completely

STOPPED
and

I started to Praise God for what I did have

a well intentioned man

who does all the grocery shopping

and

fills my doorless cupboards

with food

Yes my kitchen is ugly

and

torn apart

but I am content

and now am blessed

as


Tomorrow

September 12 2009

My husband is taking me kitchen renovation shopping

Woohoo

Out with the old and in with the new

Praise God, for His timing is always perfect

I know what I have learned during this past 4 years

and that is much more valuable than

any old kitchen or new for that matter



Looking forward to sharing the finished product with you
