Do not worry...



"I tell you, do not worry..." "Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?" -Matt. 6. 25 & 26

Hello Friends, we're coming to you in need of prayer (again). Please pray and believe alongside us that God will bring along a buyer and sell our house by July 31st. I know you may be a bit confused thinking, "Wait! Didn't they write a while ago that they sold?/Had a buyer?" So...here's the run down: 1.) The bank has approved our short sale for that 1st buyer that had LOTS of cash. 2.) That buyer backed out. 3.) Open Houses are happening each weekend. Last weekend 2 people showed up for the whole weekend. 4.) WE NEED A BUYER and get this thing DONE! We've had an INCREDIBLE Realtor Buzz Jensen who is a 'Thune Family Friend' helping us with this. Not sure if he knew what he was getting into, but we're very thankful for him and the INSANE amounts of work he's been putting into this.

We move into our Townhouse and start paying rent on August 1st (SO EXCITING! The moving part, not the rent part) but it would be easier to get excited about with the house sold. (Especially for Jeff, as the man/provider/leader of our house, I can see it weighing on him.---*another prayer request for ya!)

Thank you friends...I promise once our POD gets dropped off, and we get unpacked, I'll upload pictures from our summer!

We love you and are SO thankful for your prayers.

"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you." --1 Peter 5.7

Complicated Buyers.

So as stated in the last post, we're very very thankful that the bank has approved the price at which we can sell our house, now is the next complicated part....We had a buyer. A very rich buyer who was actually an investor (great idea, if you have TONS of money you also should be buying up these 'steal-of-a-deal' houses) was ready to purchase our house in California. Turns out his bank said he has one to many properties and would have to put down 30% on our house. He slept on it, while we prayed hard about it (God if it's your Will. God PLEASE MAKE IT YOUR WILL!!!). Turns out, he didn't think it was worth it to him to put that much down which then means...we need a buyer for our house. Nuts. But I do trust that God has this all timed out accordingly, AND Phillippians 4:6 helps. "Be anxious for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be known to God..." SOOO, if you remember to pray about a new buyer for us that would be very much appreciated. :)
