My hobby

I restore antique license plates (for cars). I love doing it. I get to take a rusted, bent piece of metal, weld up the holes, straighten it out with a hammer, dip it in an acidic fluid overnight, sandblast it, prime and sand it - all that before painting it to look so beautiful.

Come to think of it, it sounds like what the Lord desires to do with me. But to tell you the truth, I want to look beautiful (in His eyes) without all that comes before. But you see, without all that the beauty would never come forth. So I wonder what the Master will do with me today? Meantime, I'm gonna work on license plates.
