Housing

We still have not heard anything about the home we put an offer on. Dave Dabbondanza (our Realest agent) had a round table discussion yesterday with some of his Realtors and the thought is that we may not get this home because the second bank stands to loose so much money and the fact that they haven't contacted us. Dave and Tom have been working very hard on our behalf, there is alot of phone tag trying to get a hold of the other realtor and the bank (I guess it isn't really phone tag- because Dave is the only one playing).

Anyway last night I was very tempted to despair, we have waited so long for this home, there is little we can afford it seems, at least as nice at that house and now we could be back at square 1. I'm so ready to be settled in a home (so much is in storage! I think I packed too much but who knew!). Luke and I are praying and this morning I feel like there is much more faith. Not in this home but in the Lord and that this place is not our true home, we are just passing through.

We would love to own this home yet if that home is not the Lords' will for us, we don't want to be there. If you could please pray for direction, clarification, favor with this bank if that's the Lord's will and wisdom. My parents are also waiting on this home, we know the Lord will provide for both of us in his time. Please pray for the Lord to guard and direct our hearts. To remember the truth, that where the Lord guides he will always provide and that none of his plans can be thwarted.
Also huge thanks to the Kovlaks and Alebergos for taking us in =) You guys are great, we couldn't have asked for better places to stay! Thanks for you hospitality!
Thanks for your prayers

I am praying for you today! That God would put your heart at peace knowing that He is in control of the offer and that he cares for you all.
