maximizes existing structures

This is a gift I made for Pastor James' birthday.

Eric made a comment once about how some 

personality test in Jim's history said he "maximizes 

existing structures." The phrase stuck with me,

and it seemed ironic that while this is his bent

organizationally, it's also what he's been doing

literally for the past year, both on our newly

acquired (or "newly gifted", really) building, 

and on his own recently purchased house.

I also love the hopeful sentiment of Isaiah 65 --

it communicates how God wants good things 

for his people, not just spiritually, but also the 

practical, human stuff of a stable and abundant life.
