Ashamed and grateful

We're working on our house. We've had the bathroom done, we did the bedroom, and now we are doing the kitchen. We live in a dump. Our house is a dump,I'm ashamed of it. We don't invite people over( other than family, or very close friends who are like family) due to the fact that our house is an embarassment.I'm ashamed of it, yet I'm grateful to God for it. He is there, and lots of love is there.Ashamed and grateful,kind of a contridiction,but it's how I feel about my walk with The Lord, too. Ashamed of the life I lived before finding Him, ashamed of some of the things I still do today, but GRATEFUL for His unending mercy and forgiveness.

i like your house, and i always have. it's a cozy warm place where we've had many good times and have always felt welcome.

i like your house, you should not be ashamed of it. some people own houses and show it off,yours is a HOME that you should feel proud of.
i have had alot of fun times there, remember the dinner in the snow storm that we came to?
