Well we are still not quite done with the remodel. Ben works 2 jobs plus helps out at church so it has been slow going. It has been fun to see the change. It really is a cute house now. Last few weeks we have been residing the house and yes I was out there too. Had my tool bag on my hips using a nail gun and cutting tools... I thought about putting on a tierra because everytime I would shoot a nail in I would close my eyes or I was gripping the ladder with all I had as I would climb (yes I am still very much a princess!!) So we are almost to the painting part and I would like to paint the house white, trim black and door a red. This has always been my favorite color scheme for houses. Click on the picture to see our recent work and leave a comment on what you think for painting ideas.
Our plan for leaving is the second week of June. We feel this is the best time to go for a many of reasons but mostly because Ben feels this is the time The Lord has given us. No we haven't sold the house yet, No he doesn't have a job lined up yet, No we don't have a home set up yet and No the funds aren't there yet either. In our eyes it looks virtually impossible and when I start thinking about it 'logically' my anxiety really goes crazy (shortness of breath, red face, the works!!)Then I talk to Ben and he has this amazing peace and faith. He's like a rock in this. The Lord gave us word and has continued to confirm it and has continued to build us up. Ben just stands firm on what The Lord first said to him and The Lord hasn't said anything differently, yet. And then my anxiety subsides and I start to have that faith too. FAITH= Belief in the things unseen. TRUST=firm reliance,confident belief,faith.And then I know why... He is going to work things out in a way that all glory all praise belongs to Him!! And we continue to bring these things to prayer, to lay these things before the cross, to petition, to "ask and you will receive". So please take a moment right now as you read this and pray for us.
