We are in the midst of redoing parts of our kitchen—and what
a mess! Now in our third week, we can hardly wait to get everything emptied out
of the kitchen cabinets back where it belongs. Our living and dining rooms are full of dishes,
glasses, pots and pans, and cleaning supplies. Sheets of plastic hang from the ceiling around
the kitchen to protect the rest of the house. Despite the best efforts of the
workmen, however, there is a layer of dust on everything, and the smell of
paint is giving my husband a daily headache.
Why deliberately make such a mess? Fixing problems brought
on by time often requires making things seem worse before they get better.
My heart is similar to my kitchen.
