House for Sale - Shopping Online

I mentioned in a previous post (Financing) that I walked out of a meeting with a mortgage specialist with a much better (and bigger) number of what we could afford in a house. Well soon after that, our realtor sent us several links to the types of houses that we are looking for. And while not all of them were in the exact range, I cannot tell you how encouraging it was to see that there were some possibilities. There were actually some houses that were close to our price range that were close to what we thought we wanted! And while God has been constantly encouraging me through this process, this may have been one of the most encouraging moments of all.

Sure, God can do whatever he wants for however much he wants to do it, but still when you see things in actuality that look like they will work it can be very encouraging! And while I am growing in my faith and my ability to be encouraged by things I don't see, there is still something to seeing something that works.

And while we are not focusing on looking for homes until we get our house on the market and sold, this one look has been enough to sustain me and trust that when the time is right, God will provide exactly what we need at a price he wants us to pay. You see, it is all His anyway it is just how he wants me to manage it.
