?????

I am wondering how in the world house inspections can be so different! The first time our house "sold," the inspector basically told us nothing was wrong. This time a different inspector came out and he listed several things -not big things, but still it makes me wonder how two people in the same line of work could see things so differently!

Anyway, we have a few minor things to take care of repairing for the buyers.

We also have this ISSUE with our corner piece of property. It somehow never got recorded correctly when we bought the house and so the land shows the name of the lady we bought the property from. We are in the process of getting this corrected, but the sale is dependent on us getting that corrected.
The appraiser came out yesterday, and our realtor told us that homes have been appraising for lower than their worth because of this crazy economy that we are in right now.

So I guess this post goes to ask for your continued prayers:
1. That the loan for the buyer goes through
2. That the appraisal is at least what our contract amount is
3. The property issue gets settled quickly
4. That the inspection repairs don't cost us an arm & a leg!
5. That the apartment that we want is still available (we have talked with the landlord, but I know there are others on the waiting list wanting the same apartment).
6. Mostly, I want God to be glorified and lifted up through this process. I want people to see how awesome our God is.

I know God knows what is best, and I want to be right in the center of His will. I don't want to be ahead or behind.

I love your blog. I pray for you everyday. I know it seems like there are a lot of mountains to climb right now but I believe God is going to perform a miracle for your family. He has a perfect plan and perfect time. It's hard when it's your life on hold but this is coming from someone who has done a lot of waiting. However, I know what it's like when He comes through and it is SOOOO good. I can't wait to see the miracle He is going to perform for you!

Love you guys,
Crystal
