armor

how do you prepare for meeting evil each day?
i choose to use God's armor...
Ephesians 6:13-17 (Good News Translation)
So put on God's armor now! Then when the evil day comes, you will be able to resist the enemy's attacks; and after fighting to the end, you will still hold your ground.
So stand ready, with truth as a belt tight around your waist, with righteousness as your breastplate,and as your shoes the readiness to announce the Good News of peace. At all times carry faith as a shield; for with it you will be able to put out all the burning arrows shot by the Evil One. And accept salvation as a helmet, and the word of God as the sword which the Spirit gives you.

Here is my man, being the man, snowblowing after the big blizzard we were blessed with.  He was always a 'get it done' kind of guy, no matter what he was faced with... cleaning up this snow, putting in the new flooring, and getting a new lock on the garage door.  i'm glad we had the communication that we had - his most recent little project at our new house was the service door on our garage - it had obviously been broken into in the past and didn't latch.  so, the immediate fix was to affix a padlock, which we used the entire time; however, was a pain.  he had gotten a new nob to put on the door so we could just have a normal lock.  i remember him telling me that he had to give me one of the keys - so the project was half done, kevin finished it this weekend, and i found the keys and gave myself one.  i'm glad he didn't just keep to himself and not tell me about things like that... of course there are many things that i don't know what he was doing with in the garage, but i didn't need to know everything, he had a lot of projects and enjoyed keeping busy... but if it was something i needed to know, he was sure to let me know.  Heavenly Father, thank you for the time Joe and I had together, for our beautiful wedding and for our child you are knitting together in my womb. Amen
