I think Jesus would be proud…

During my Sabbatical, I have been doing some work around the house. We recently moved the children to share a room, and converted the third room to be what we are calling “The Sabbath Room.” It will serve as a library / guest room / prayer room. I repainted the room, removed the carpet and installed laminate flooring, and scavenged craigslist to furnish it.

In developing the room, I envisioned a kind of desk / table for the room that I have not been able to find used and I did not want to fork out a fortune for it. So, I built it. (It seems that I’m not the only one who has taken up some sort of carpentry during this Sabbatical season) Carpentry is by no means a strength, but I have to say I’m pretty proud of my creation, and I’d like to think that Jesus as carpenter would have been proud as well…

Here are some pictures:

    Wow. Nicely done. Did you turn the legs yourself? Did you make the design too?

    “Remember the Sabbath Room, and keep it holy. In six other rooms shall you labor and do all your work, but the seventh room is a Sabbath. In it, you shall not do any work.”

    Nice work!
