Has God been holding this house for us? I'm not sure. Our offer was placed at our highest point of comfort. We entertained changing it to full asking price until 11:45pm last night. That would have meant countering our own offer. Who does that?! We decided to stay with our original offer and let God do the rest. If this house really is the one he's been holding for us, then he's also fully capable of making the other people's offers less attractive than ours. If it's not the one he has reserved for us, then we'll be sad but totally willing to accept that path.
Our kids are in love with this property. They even wrote letters to the sellers asking them to accept our offer. They are priceless. If we end up moving in, I guarantee you they will be framed and proudly displayed.
I'm at peace and I am calm. I know God's got our backs on this one and we will find out today if that includes this house or not. But, like I said, it will take a miracle!

Hi,
You don't know me and I have never left a comment on your blog but I do visit regularly. I am praying for you, I was in the same boat with 3 kids under the age of 4 and a short timeline to find a home. God found us the perfect house and I was so glad we had "lost" all those other ones (the last one was particularly hard). But the home he had for us was BETTER than all the rest. It's hard to see past this time, but if this is not the one there is a better one! I thank God all the time we didn't get the other home we bid on before we found this one!
As long as your kids are with you they will make any place a loving home, but I know God has a good one for you (praying this is one is it).
