We are constantly amazed at the hand of God upon our lives. There are times our faith is tested beyond what we think we can stand, but over the past month we have walked through the test of perserverance! Many of you know that we have been in the process of buying another home here in Anthem. Unfortunately it is not a seller's market right now and we have had a rough time selling our house even though it is very competitively priced. This new home in the country club is gorgeous. It is safe to say that this new house is our dream home and above our wildest dreams that we could ever live in a home like this at this point in our lives. We kind of "stumbled" upon it and had honestly not planned to move, especially since we just reached the one-year mark of moving into our current home last summer. However, we have had an undeniable peace about going forward with the new house. With our closing date encroaching upon us and yet another day gone by without any "lookers" we seriously doubted if this was even going to go through. However, we pressed through in prayer and asked the Lord to clearly show us if this not His will. It seemed like obstacle after obstacle stood in our way. But God has truly removed everything that seemed like a mountain and it's like we have plowed straight through any barriers! To make a long story short, we have been approved for our new home and Pulte and our lenders have done everything they can to make this dream possible for us. We are blessed beyond measure and are looking forward to moving into our new home on Aug 22nd. I want to encourage anyone reading this blog to not be afraid to ask God for the BIG THINGS! Sometimes we are afraid to ask God for the big stuff for whatever reason. Maybe it's fear or we just don't think that we CAN ask! Or maybe we don't believe it will ever "happen" for us. However, I am convinced otherwise. Since Scott and I got married God has done miracle after miracle for us in regards to finances and our homes. Even in times of lack or need, I have never felt that I lacked or needed anything. God is a miracle working God and I am blessed to share yet another miracle with you!
