Big Blow

It's the renter's nightmare! Yesterday after my blog about how great things went at Creekside, my landlord called and informed me that she needs to move back into her house. She and her husband have apparently been having problems and are splitting up. That is a sad event in and of itself.

For my family it is truly a sad event. We have to move. She would like for us to be out by August 30. I just don't know about that. Seems awful sudden to me. The whole thing seems like some kind of dream, but it's true. I even pinched Ellen yesterday to make sure it was real.

So, here's what I need from my blog family. Please begin to pray. Here are some specifics. We would like to stay in this school system. Our kids have been here for nearly their whole life. Britney and Brandon have been in this system their whole life. We also need a house big enough for the "Brady Bunch." We would like to rent if possible because in four or five years, we would like to move back to Florence to be closer to the majority of our church family. Either that or try and buy a "fixer-upper" and try and make money on a house.

I know this sounds like a "wish-list," but Jesus said, "ask anything in my name." God has never let us down on His promise to provide for us. I have all the confidence in Him to continue to do the same.

Just a side note, but an important one. It is interesting that I have been preaching for the past three weeks on "Living By Faith." God help me and my family to practice what I preach.
