Roadwork and construction in our city–it seems to be happening all of the time. One of our major streets is undergoing pipe replacement–3 meters below the asphalt!  It’s a disaster. Many times this affects our electricity and water supplies. This photo was taken across the street from our apartment.  Again, picture of pipes being replaced.  It’s so important that they do this work, but it creates such havoc!
Sometimes I feel the same in my own heart. It has been a year of digging up the “pipes” from 3 meters down–there are habits, attitudes, and perspectives that need to be replaced with grace, patience, and love. It has been a difficult year, but necessary–I’m so glad He takes the time to replace our dirty and with His clean!
