Faith in action

James 2:25-26 (Message translation)
"The same with Rahab, The Jericho harlot. Wasn't her action in hiding God's spies and helping them escape-
that seamless unity of believing and doing- what counted with God?
The very moment you separate body and spirit, you end up with a corpse.
Separate faith and works and you get the same thing: a corpse.

Day 56

I am beat.
But our dream of a place downstairs in the basement for Jared to have friends over, and a place for us to house guests in, is quickly becoming a reality!
We had accumulated about $400.00 in change and gifts that we were going to apply to the basement. We knew this wouldn't go too far but it was a start, right?
Our list in order of priority looked like this:

TV
Projector
XBox fixed
Call of Duty game
Couch
Flooring
Bedroom flooring
Paint
Drywall....etc...

Well, my mom donated her old tv, we found a projector on sale for fifty bucks, Tim found a place to fix the X box real cheap, a friend gave Tim his old Call of Duty game, a beautiful couch came from heaven, and today we went and got flooring for the basement area at 41 cents a square foot. Had enough money to also buy laminate for the bedroom area. Wow!! Its so exciting how it is all coming together.
I am beat from laying all the carpet tile and moving everything around so I am going to bed now to dream of all the fun things we will do in our basement very soon!

Thank you Father!
