| | Workin'I guess its time to post a bit of John's life! Somehow when he is doing contracting work, his computer time diminishes... sorry he has not even found time to comment and hang out with y'all!
Stained glass windows are a spectacular sight in many churches, and ours has probably more than its share of them! It is a wise thing to keep them protected from the weather, and the storm windows are badly deteriorating!!! This is the bottom of a window in comparatively better condition than the rest:
I don't know if I have much skill in storm window work, but hey, the people who built them used various dimensions of lumber in the same window, so I guess I am allowed to make it up as I go. This window used to be one piece - 12 feet tall, and 4 feet wide. When we took it down, it was light enough to handle because almost all the glass had fallen out of it.  When I rebuilt it, I made it into 3 sections for ease of handling. The bottom section is all new construction :
Me working in the shop (which used to be a nursery - nice mural, eh?):
Washin' the window at about 20* F before hanging a finished storm window:
Encourage your hearts in God our Savior! He is at work, even in the mundane things of life. Some days it is hard for me to remember that, but He is faithful:
"If we died with Him, we shall also live with Him;
If we endure, we shall also reign with Him;
If we deny Him, He also will deny us;
If we are faithless, He remains faithful;
For He cannot deny Himself."
2Timothy 2:11-13
Die to self daily! Allow Jesus to resurrect you daily! Grow in faith!
Blessings~
Sir John the Mysterious
