• Wednesday, July 26, 2006 - Yet Another House Showing...
Tomorrow we have another house showing between 10:30 - 11:30am. Please keep it in prayer. Mike and I are cleaning up tonight... tomorrow our boy turns ten too so I'll write more then. Thanks so much for all of your prayers. Things have been tough, but we know that in looking back, His mighty hand has been guiding it all. Thanks again... and I can't wait until I can actually sit to blog again!!!!
Amy:
I'll be thinking about you and will pray for a successful showing! Not too long ago, DH and I were in the same situation...trying to clean the night before a showing. I know it's so stressful, but you're right, God has His plan in His time. It was so hard for me to see then, too. But, DH kept reminding me!
I remember selling our last home, and how we has soooooo many showings... and it was a lot of work with a new baby... but on the positive side, I loved having the pressing need to keep the house perfectly presentable all the time, I grew to like it, a lot! In fact, when things start to pile up on me around here I often look back on that time and remember how nice it felt to have such a lovely home, and when I clean I think of it as though it's for a showing... and I try to make it lovely, and when I manage to succeed (not often enough lately) I just stop and look around, then sit and relax, and it makes me happy... it's so calm and inviting... flylady would be proud of me in those moments... I wish there were more of those moments!
Hang in there, try to enjoy the process, it may be long, but eventually this phase will end, and then you'll move on to the next one...
We've never owned so I don't know what it's like to sell, but I do know what it's like to try to find a rental home and that can be very frusterating too! We ran on several dead ends when we were moving from Cali back to Ind.
Now we are looking at another rental this weekend, Lord willing. We are very excited about it and feel like it really dropped in our laps right at the right time. We're praying that the Lord will show us if it's not for us though......
and a woman seeking the Lord's Will (daily), a wife (striving to keep the romance alive), a "Smamma" (Step- mother) of one and a homeschooling mom of seven (I was never going to have children), who starts every day over (after messing SOME thing up the day before), knowing God's grace is overflowing (just like my laundry), and so thankful He's blessed me more than I'll ever deserve.
