God sold our house in Wisconsin!! It is amazing to see His faithfullness displayed in our lives. We closed on our house 2 years ago, October 15. If our house would have sold before that date, then we would have had to pay taxes on what we made since it was within 2 years of our purchase date. In the back of my mind, I kept thinking to myself that God wasn't going to sell our house until that date. And guess what? The papers were drawn on that date! We serve an awesome God!
We are now in the middle of deciding what to do regarding housing. We had an apartment lined up to live in until our house sold, but now that it did sell, we are not sure if we still want to rent or if we want to purchase a house.
Heston is actually out looking at houses today, but last night, we found a house that we think would be ideal for us and our future family. We are going to go look at it tonight and I am so excited!
I don't know if God will work in the same way as He did with our last house purchase, but on the way home from turning down a rental contract, we came upon our house in WI. With that house, it was as if the Lord was laying it in our laps and we couldn't deny His perfect hand in it.
I have been praying that we could make enough money off of our house in WI so that we would be able to purchase exactly what we need for our family. I am excited to see how the Lord is going to work!
My husband mentions often about my lack of blogging. Sorry!! I have a more time consuming job than I once did and a lot of times I don't feel like I have a lot to blog about!
I do thank you for keeping up with us and for your prayers; we greatly appreciate it!
No matter what happens with the house we are praying about, we will be moving somewhere in 2 1/2 weeks as Hillary & Steve, Heston's sister & her husband, who we are living wiht sold thier house and they have to be out the middle of November. We know God has all of those details under control.
