Bathroom Disaster!

I remodeled our downstairs bathroom with a friend back in 1993 2003. Here's how it looked:

I noticed some dripping last week above the shower. Finally got the plumber in today, and the tiles started coming off. We had a small leak, undetected, and the wall started to rot from the inside out. I had to rip out a ton of tiles. We may have to redo the whole tiling job.

All from a pin-size leak. The bathroom now lies in ruins.

Could almost be a parable about something.

Like how the smallest sins, not repented of and not atoned for, could have great consequences in the future?Or perhaps, how a little maintenance can prevent huge disasters?

Probably has something to do with all of the Coca-Cola propaganda.

Wow. You sure went out of your way to create a great story for a sermon. And to think you began that story creation back in 1993. :-)

I like Ian's comment.
