  • Well, we shall see what unfolds this week. Minimally, Freddie Mac should contact us as our landlord and set up that arrangement. Hopefully, we'll inch forward toward a sale!

    "Sinking times are praying times....In our hours of...pain and mental anguish, we find ourselves as naturally driven to prayer as the wreck is driven upon the shore by the waves...Short prayers are long enough...Not length but strength is desirable...
    Our extremities are the Lord's opportunities...
    When we can do nothing, Jesus can do all things..." ~ C. Spurgeon


    Well we are, thankfully, not sinking, nor are we in anguish, nor are we a wreck - at least not yet! But, we are driven to pray. I'm so grateful that it makes a huge difference in how things turn out, when we pour out our hearts to Him.

    "As he began to sink, he cried out, 'Lord, save me!' " Matt 14:30

    We don't have to wait until we are on the quicksand or in the tumultuous waves.
    He's always ready to listen and extend grace.
