Loft by Carouschka Streijffert
Conversion of attic space into a loft in Stockholm.

There was a man who was given plentiful bricks and mortar to build a house. He came upon a nice piece of land with a solid rock foundation. So, he started to build the walls of this house on the foundation. After he dedicated a time of good and diligent work, he stepped back to marvel at the progress of the house. It was magnificent, and so awe inspiring that others who are also skillful in craft joined the construction.
The man decided he had started a good work, and that his task there was finished. The beauty of the house drew others to build on top of her solid foundation. So, the man left for a period of time. And during those passing of days, he became weary and in need of shelter. So he returned to the house he had started a good work in, but it was not finished. He attempted to enter anyways, but the door was not ready to be opened. In deep depravity and need, he pushed the door, shaking the bricks he had laid with his own hands.
The builders who came after the man laid hold of him. They moved him aside and continued the work that was delayed.
Dang these people are good looking, can act, sing and play an instrument. Motivated to step it up >:)
I’m in love with this.
Me, too. Made me wanna watch 500 Days of Summer again, but then I changed my mind when I remembered they break up at the end. :(
I have been extremely excited for the past few days. The reason? I am hungry for the word of God, ie. the Biblical truths found in the Bible that unveils the blessings and atrocities of world and provides insight into God character. This matched with the realization that about a half dozen “people of old” who have walked the narrow walk following Jesus can feed me. It makes sense to look to those who have struggled hard with this faith for insight.
I’ve only found roughly a half dozen, but here they are:
Jonathan Edwards
C.S. Lewis
Andrew Murray (have yet to get to his stuff)
John Piper (Still alive!)
The great thing about these guys is they are so old the copyright on their works have expired (except Piper who decided to not charge for his work), meaning you can get most of their books for free! just Google it or search on Amazon. The amount of wisdom to be gained is endless.

God hates people like me, finds people like me, saves people like me, then works in people like me so I can be the me God intended. God does everything.
I want this.
