Mark is attending the Pastor's conference this week. Let me first say he doesn't feel lead to be a pastor. His band is playing late tomorrow afternoon at the conference and because he has the time right now he decided he would go for the whole conference. I am glad that he has the opportunity to go. It gave him something to do for a couple days.
I emailed a friend this morning and told her I hope he comes home renewed. When I talked to him tonight it sounded like he is being renewed and that is refreshing. We are at a cross road in our life, but things are moving SLOW. We know that God has a plan for us it just isn't crystal clear to us at the moment. Our faith is being tested daily.
We are living in perpetual limbo. It is hard because you are constantly questioning your purpose and you tend to want to do something to "fix" what seems wrong in your life. Even when it is totally out of your control. We can't fix the economy single handedly. I wish we could, but it will take a nation of people to spend some cash in order to get things moving.
Although we are in limbo a few things we are pretty confident about. One is the attempt to sell our house. We look at it like this, if we are meant to sell our house it will sell. On the other hand you can't sell your house unless it is for sale. Touché? So our house sits on the market.
The realtor emailed us at 6:30 and said that a caravan of realtors, 20 to 25 in number will be here anywhere from 10:30 to noon tomorrow. To that I say "of course Mark is out of town". I'm ready though. I feel like you have to come into our house to really appreciate what it has to offer. Half the battle is getting people here. A parade of realtors will be here tomorrow hopefully to help us find a buyer for this lovely abode. And if we sell...? We will cross that bridge when we get to it. We are stepping out in faith and we will go with the flow.
Matthew 6:25-34
