Redecorating. Never as straightforward as one imagines at
the outset. Having replaced most of the lath and plaster walls with new
plasterboard, we left a section along the old staircase. Now we find it is
crumbling, won’t hold the paint, nor wallpaper, so … sigh … I guess it has to
come out and be replaced, too. Another unwelcome delay.
God advises us to confess our sins to him. To rid ourselves
of the old stuff because, no matter how hard we try to hide it, any camouflage
will soon flake away or fall off and our old stuff will be revealed. What is
done in the dark will be revealed in the light.
The old adage of keeping short accounts with God is so true.
There are no short-cuts to relationship with God. And there
are no short-cuts to redecorating an old house. Boo.
