the house saga...part III

Well, sorry I have vanished from the blog world temporarily. I determined that if I could not sleep, I could not blog...and not having gotten enough sleep for...well, for awhile, I have had to steer clear of my blog. It has been difficult at times, as I have had so many things rolling around in my head that I wanted to put on paper...but another time, I guess.

So, to keep in step with the rule (no sleep, no blog), I should probably not be blogging now. However, there is something I would like my few faithful readers to lift up in prayer. You may recall the news about my parents' home and their upcoming move. Well, apparently, that wasn't God's plan...or perhaps, just not His timing. Some things fell through that were out of my parents' hands and now they are caught in the frustrating inbetween, not knowing if they're moving or not moving or when or how or...you get the picture. I think the most frustrating and draining part for them right now is the unknown, not knowing which direction to move, so instead, feeling slightly paralyzed.

Please pray for wisdom for both of them. Pray for willingness to listen and obey even if it may not be what they'd hoped for. Pray that God would speak loudly when He does so that there is no question about their next step...not that He would reveal the whole path, but that they would know with certainty where to place their foot next...as it is currently hovering over an unknown. Pray for patience as they wait as well. And pray for joy...that they would find joy in knowing that the God that they are waiting for to show them the way, is the same God who is in control of every moment. Also, please lift up the family who had set their hopes on buying my parents home. As far as we understand, they are facing an unexpected financial hardship.

Thanks for praying as you're led. I'm excited to see what He has planned. I know it's good. It's always good. Now for that sleep my body's been longing for... God bless!
