We do our best and let God do the rest

The Kraal Michigan Team and Trinity Church Group was busy on Friday as they finished the vinyl flooring at the community center and worked to paint the exterior walls at Nicole’s house.

Today the luxury vinyl crew finished up the flooring at the community center. Everything went smoothly, they had enough supplies with no injuries 😉 The floor looks amazing and the upstairs is ready to use. Aaron really loved this project as this gave him time to do what he enjoys and also gave him time to work side by side with his boys and new friends. Serving the Lord in that way was truly fulfilling for all of us! 

I (Casey) primed exterior walls with the girls at Nicole’s house. Nicole had picked a beautiful color called tame teal. Her excitement for her house was contagious and as you asked her face would light up as she showed us the color sample on her phone. We finished priming and will return tomorrow to paint.

As we work on projects we want things to look perfect when we are done, that is what we strive for. But with projects like these where tools and supplies are limited, and the conditions are less than we are used to, we are reminded that God only needs us to do our best at accomplishing His purposes and He will see it to perfect completion. We will do our best and let God do the rest!
