Please Pray

I don't know how many people look at this blog, but it only takes a few to urgently pray.

Some of you know that for the last four months we have been looking for a new rental house. Our current location is small for our family and the ages of our children. (Basically we need another bedroom so we can split up the boys a bit.)  We also have had a number of problems while being in this house, mainly water and mold issues.

We have been actively looking for another house. We have looked at many. We have been excited about two. In the one situation we look back and realize that God was most likely protecting us from a problematic situation with the property management company. The second one was so recent we don't yet see why God allowed it to fall through for us.

We believe that our God is big. He is sovereign and has a perfect plan. We also know that He is aware that our current lease in up in just 10 days. (We might be able to get an extension, but are not 100% sure at this moment.)

God has done some absolutely amazing things over the past week in our lives. We have tangibly seen Him work in ways we were not expecting. He is so very faithful. Yet here we are with a huge need that just doesn't seem to be changing. We don't understand why God hasn't provided, we don't see the plan He has for us but we will choose to keep trusting.

Please join us in praying that God will provide in a mighty way, something that can only be attributed to Him and Him alone. We believe that 10 days is plenty of time for our God to work this situation out.

He exists outside of space and time, is bound by neither and WILL provide for your needs. Praying for a perfect arrangement in his Great Providence for your family. Take heart, He is in everything, especially this!

Sorry to hear that your housing arrangements have not panned out. Hope that they find their ways to completeness. However Evan believes that Gods plan is for your to find a home and work closer to Warsaw. Hope you have a merry Christmas. Keep your eyes and heart open to the perfect arrangements for you.

As your father says so perfectly, (he is always good with words) "God's clock may run slow but He is never late for an appointment." This is no exception. I'd say you could move in with us (again) but I guess the commute would be a little far. We love you and are praying God's best for you and all for HIS GLORY.
