In His Time

On Saturday, just 17 days short of one year since we signed the listing agreement, we signed an agreement to sell our house. 

The house was shown on Friday, and on Friday afternoon we received and accepted a verbal offer. On Saturday it became "official".  And "real".

 It's overwhelming!  And we're still a little numb.  After months of praying and waiting, we have our answer.  And in many ways, it's hard to believe it's real. 

But it is!

And our God, who is able to do "exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think" (Ephesians 3:18), has done exactly that, and we are set to close in just 45 short days.

There's much to be done in these 45 days, including finding a new house.  We had a good afternoon of house-hunting yesterday afternoon after church, and now must make a final decision.  There's the packing to be done and lots of decisions to be made.  These 45 days will likely pass very quickly.

God has answered our prayers concerning the sale of this house.  Now we're praying about making the right decision about our next home, for wisdom as we make all the decisions that are part of the moving process, and for physical stamina as we have much to accomplish in these days.

This process took longer than we expected.  Longer than we had hoped.  But God answered our prayers.  In His time.

To God be the glory!  Great things He has done!
