As the first day progressed these two Pastor Dudley and homeowner Wuilmer became inseparable. They worked together on making this house a home. They trusted each others actions since there was a language barrier. This language barrier was removed by the power of the Holy Spirit. Both gentlemen allowed the Lord to lead and guide every block and mescal that went into this house. I caught them on the last day before the rood went up looking together at the craftsmanship of the four walls which went up very quickly Pastor Dudley shared on the night before the fifth day of construction. Pastor Dudley shared how Mike said on their first night this week will fly by you if you are not careful and you will miss the opportunity of building relationships as well as building the home. Mike said this house will get built but you may miss an opportunity of a life time by not taking time to get to know these beautiful people. Pastor Dudley did not miss out on building relationships because what I witnessed with him and Wuilmer, the home owner was humbling and amazing action of God's love for us. The way Wuilmer looked up to Pastor Dudley and the way Pastor Dudley looked at his new friend Wuilmer was only something God could have created. All because Pastor Dudley said yes to God to come here and build a house which actually Wuilmer could have done without the help of Pastor Dudley. He is a skilled craftsman. Wuilmer took so much pride in his home and the way it was going to turn out. He smoothed the joints daily and kept the area clean where they were working. He made sure the floor was prepped for the concrete going on it. He was one proud man and his family is blessed to call him husband and father. Thank you Wuilmer for teaching us so many lessons this week about how to be like Jesus. Thank you Pastor Dudley for taking the time to build more than a home you built a lifetime memory for you and Wuilmer this week by simply taking the time and not being task driven but Christ driven. How beautiful it is of the hands and feet of Jesus.
For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Ephesians 2:10
