EVERYTHING GOD TOUCHES - TURNS TO SOLD!


Holy Moly People! Well I blogged about our house needing to sell...about 1 hour later we received a call from our realtor...here is ths story:

1. The people came to our open house and loved it and put an offer down.
2. The only catch was they had to sell their house. They put a closing date of Aug 29th to give them time to sell their house.
3. They had someone look at their at 5pm Sunday night - the people bought their house!!!
4. Therefore...OUR HOUSE IS SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They are moving in as renters until the closing day which will be within a month or so.... FABULOUS!

For those of you who know me well...I am a worrier. I feel like I have lost 100 lbs. When Jerry told me the house had sold...I started weeping.

You know, sometimes it is easy to doubt God. Especially when what we are asking for doesn't come exactly when we ask for it. But here is the deal...we prayed that our house wouldn't sell until the perfect time. We are moving on Friday and this is the perfect time. Anyhow - I did say the next post would be in Indiana - not true. I had to let you all know the great news!!!

ADIOS AMIGOS!

Goodbye Winterset, Iowa - Hello Nashville, Indiana

Well, our time here in Winterset is coming to an end...but we know God has great things in store for our future. Today we had an open house and got an offer...if they sell their house. So EVERYONE pray that something happens soon. Again, God knows. This has been a true test of faith and trust the last month. I am a worrier by nature and this has pushed me to the limit but we have both grown and learned to depend all on God.



Today we took a few pictures with some of the youth and friends. It is hard to leave but refreshing to know friendships last and since we live in a techy world - we ALL have cell phones. So, saying that, we will text you all our new numbers and want you to call us! Any time - Any day. (Just keep in mind we are an hour ahead of you...)




So, hopefully I will keep up with this blog to let you all know what we are doing and show off some pictures...the next post we will be in Indiana. Those of you who have trips planned to see us...don't cancel! :)




Love all of you and thank you for your prayers. Keep praying that our house sells and the move is smooth.
