Today I had the opportunity to fall in love. And when I say I'm in love, I say it broke my heart driving away.. from what you ask? Well, it's house No. 5. I have been house-hunting for a little over 3 weeks now. I've seen about 9 houses so far. The first 4 were a nightmare. They had basements that would make you feel like you were in the movie "The Blair Witch Project" and in neighborhoods that would make you feel like you'd have to lock your windows, doors and get an armed guard.
What a crazy ride this has been for me. I've been praying for more lately. More good things, more blessings.. you know, MORE! There's a few scripture verses that I've been clinging to these last few days..
"Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full--pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back." Luke 6:38
"Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you." Matthew 7:7
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11I was told that we should remind God of His promises, not for His sake, cause obviously He already knows them, but for our own. So as I'm going through this experience of buying a home I am constantly reminding God of His promises for me. And dear Father in Heaven.. I can't help but feel hopeful.
Today filled me with hope. And I just want to have all of what God has for me!!
