January 2022 Highlights

January 15, 2022:

Josh had been wanting to get the boys their own set of scriptures for a while, with their names on them.  They each picked out a different font and were excited for their own set!

Josh had seen this artwork of Jesus a while ago and had wanted it ever since.  While we were at Deseret Book I looked to see if they had it and they did.  It is call the "Finisher of Faith" by Kelsy and Jesse Lightweave.  And it is really beautiful.  We hung it in our living room.

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. - Isaiah 41:10.

As Peter discovered in his journey across the water, when we lose sight of the Author of our Faith, we can quickly become subject to the vying forces around us, and have our faith become deposed by fear. In such moments of darkness and calamity, we may sink to our knees with the same desperate plea uttered by Peter when he called to his Savior: Lord, save me. The hallowed hand of the Master is never far. We may slip, and we may stumble, but we are never lost when we look to him for help. He will help us up, he will complete our lack, and he will Finish our Faith.

 

January 27, 2022: Versii and his friend Logan with their home model project at school.  They used the home plans and input the measurements into the computer to laser cut their house model out of plywood.  They ran out of time before they could complete the 2nd floor, so the 1/2 inch scale model you see is just the garage and main floor.  I love how it turned out. 

The garage with Band room and main entry.

The main entry and 1/2 bath.

The first floor of the house.  

It has 2 bedrooms each with their own bathrooms, a living area, another 1/2 bath, the laundry and an office.
