Isaiah 28: 9-10 “Whom will he teach knowledge? And whom will he make to understand the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just drawn from the breasts? For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, Here a little, there a little.”

"He gives strength to the weary, And to him who lacks might He increases power.  Though youths grow weary and tired, And vigorous young men stumble badly, Yet those who wait for the Lord Will gain new strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary."  --Isaiah 40: 29-31

This was not what we wanted to hear, but everywhere I turned, every time I got quite, that's what God said to me, "Tabitha, those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength" or "Someday you will mount up with wings like eagles, but you have to wait" or some version of that.  Then the songs that came to mind, the blogs I read, the songs at church, spoke of waiting.  At first I thought it may just be a 'don't rush it' kind of thing, until we talked to the realtor.  We wouldn't have come away from the table with much for our new house. 

I told Josh about what I had been hearing on the way to church, but told him it was his decision anyway.  The first song at church was about waiting!  Okay God!  Not exactly what I wanted to hear, but I am listening.  And after Josh decided to call off the moving for a while longer, a peace really came over me about our little townhome.  My home looks so clean now and I'm determined to keep it that way.  I will not be unpacking all those boxes!  Our home looks so much better without all that junk.  I might have to dig for a few needed things, but the rest of it can stay packed for awhile.

We might still be fixing up some things around here.  The back of our house needs to be redone and our floors look the worst.  I'm just going to leave all that up to Josh and help where I can.  He's thinking about laying tile downstairs--his mom has a tile saw and he knows how to do it. 

Anyway, thank you all for praying for us in this process!!  He answered.  I still believe God has a house out there for us, but it's not His timing just yet.
