Houseless

Yup it's official, I'm houseless. Today we sold our house. I know I should be very happy with the price that it was sold at, we more than doubled the price we paid for it, but unfortunately to I'm not. After the buyer left I actually cried :( I guess it proves again and again that money cannot prevent sentimental feelings or emotional detachment. The buyer was so eager for the place that they paid the earnest money even before looking at the house. After spending 3.5 years, living in this house it's really sad that we have to move out in 4 months. So until the new place is ready Hubbs and I will be houseless and and homeless and that could mean anything from 4 - 6 months depending on external factors. I guess it is not easy to be leaving a place where Hubbs and I shared so many memories of the start of our life together. If only we could move all those along with us :(

The upside to this whole thing is that I believe God is leading us to a newer better place and He has plans for us that we may not comprehend. Maybe this is part of God's plan to move us to a bigger house so that we will feel the need to fill all the empty rooms :) I'm grateful to all who helped pray for the right decision and I know God will lead the way.

This remind me of a passage from Proverbs 6:13 "Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans" I trust that this step we are taking is part of God's plan for Hubbs and I, just as He has promised in Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. "Jeremiah 29:11





Bye bye house...I will miss you. Thanks for all the memories :)
