"Home is Where the Heart Is".......or so the saying goes. I say: "Home is where your stuff is and it's the structure you pay your mortgage on." It's currently the place that I am sick of not being sold. How's that for an update? It's been over a month since I posted so I thought I'd jot down a quick update.
We had an offer on our home. We booked the packers and movers and a flight for Nick to be there for all the final stuff. Then, they walked.
It is an amazing thing to trust God in the midst of everything!
I know He is conducting the symphony of our transition. I trust His rhythm. Although I wouldn't choose an hour and a half of my wailing-snot-sobbing to take up a few measures, He did. Being on the market for over 100 days and putting a family of five in a basement of a home with a family of six is trying....BUT... there is always a "but"...
But, as trying as it is, God has given me His Peace. We haven't slid off His radar. In fact, He is pursuing me each day. I am eager to hear the debut of the final song. This Composer is using instruments of pain, longing, stillness, patience, hope, desire, trust and peace.
I believe I'll hear the final arrangement when my home and heart are in the same place in His perfect timing!
