Favorite Pic of the Day

Picture of the day

Today I was out in a community helping on a house building site...I got this shot of a man I just love! Last summer we built him a new house and the thing I loved about him was he wouldn't move in until his family and friends had worshiped in it..To bless it and thank God for it! Don't you love that!
Since then and before the building of his house he has helped us on every house site in that community. One day we pulled up to his house to tell him he would receive a new house that day and because he had not given us the documents proving he owned the land we had to move on to another site...I was so sad for him....But as we began building down the road..Here he came and picked up a hammer and with a smile built someone else a house!!! I love his spirit!!!
(he later recieved his house!!)
