House update

Okay, I know it’s a bit devious but I’ve been stalking everyone coming and going from the house across the street to determine if we have a chance of getting it or not. Here’s what I found out from the latest fella, he’s married with two kids (might be a nice neighbor even if we don’t get it), 90% of houses that go to auction get bought back by the bank because they final bid doesn’t cover their debt, this house has FIVE mortgages on it, he’s got a lot of friends in the business, his top bid is our top bid (CRAP). So we still need prayers…

Prayers Needed

The house across the street from us is going up for auction on Thursday. We (I) have thought about moving before but we really love our neighbors and don’t want to move just to move. We see this as an opportunity to get some things in a home we are currently lacking; garage, basement, flat back yard. If we could get it for a good price it would be awesome, of course we haven’t even thought about trying to sell our house and this has come about in the last two days. We thought maybe we’d rent, or sell, or…who knows, but none the less we are moving forward. We’ve worked out the details, called the bank, prayed. So now we ask the few who stumble across this blog from week to week to just please pray that we see God’s will clearly in this. It will be a huge struggle to handle the two mortgages in the transition period, so if He’s not in it, it’s going to be disaster and one thing we’ve learned is that our family under finacial stress is a bad thing. So please please please Thursday at 11:30am pray for us to just be calm and be able to hear Gods prompting when it comes to what we should pay for this house. Thank you!!!
