Monday Musings

Two days ago my house was put up for sale. This hit me like a ton of bricks. Putting the house up for sale brought me to one of my most panicky moments so far in this process. Things became very real. Then my mom came to town. I love how Moms make everything better. She was only here for about 17 hours (including sleep), but I'm so thankful that I got to see her for that time. I realized yesterday that I have rarely had my faith tested for material things. I have gone through some tough stuff that I have had to lean on my faith to survive. I have made choices, both good and bad, that have made me lean on God and trust him, but never for material things. I have to now. I have to trust him that my house will sell at exactly the right time. That opportunities will open up at the right locations at the right time and that every thing will fall into place exactly as it's supposed to. That is not something that is easy to believe. But I know that it will. I have more faith right now than I have ever had, now I just have to keep believing no matter what my reality starts to look like. I'll get there. Me and God :)

  1. I read a bunch of your blog today while on school break and am so proud of you. You are really strong for going through all you are and handling it so well. I would love to get together soon for dinner or something! And by they way I don't want you to move to Florida :(

  2. You are strongly in my prayer, cuz. Don't know if you know what Scott and I just did, but we sold our Atwater house in November and moved 4 hours away for Scott's new job. TOTAL change in life, pace, routine, everything. God confirmed every single step in the process (and still is!). I pray that for you. That He will confirm and confirm and confirm again for you and Terry. I love you!
