One More Turn
10 01 2007Our agent called me today with very discouraging news. Our buyer for our house just backed out. That means that the truck I just reserved, the change of address forms, and transfer of all those wonderful services was a bit premature. Maybe.
So we are actually still moving even though our house has not sold. We really have no other choice but to go ahead and rent a house in Birmingham. We have to start generating some income and it looks like we will need even more since we will possibly be paying rent and a mortgage.
So how is my faith? Well, it is certainly being stretched. I can’t imagine what God is doing and I have no clue as to what is next. But I believe something good is coming. I guess I just have to. After all, things could be much worse. Who knows, we should get the escrow from the buyer ($3000) and our house could still sell quickly. So this might actually be to our benefit.
One little plug to our agent. Cheri Hulke is the best agent I have worked with bar none. She has worked with us and helped us more than anyone could imagine through this. She has even babysat for us. She’s more than just an agent for us, she is also a great person.
Thanks Cheri and Coldwell-Banker Real Estate.
bummer! I guess, though, there’s no reason for trusting God unless you actually HAVE to trust God. . . I’m still praying, and won’t stop
I once complained to a friend when we were in a time of transition that I’d go and do anything God wanted me to do just point and show what and where. My heart was willing to be obedient. Then she reminded me that it’s the process of waiting and trusting that builds our faith; not the obedience.
Hmmm….something to ponder anew!
