The Bigger Plan

Sometimes I think life would be a whole lot easier if we understood God's bigger plan as the daily events around us happen.

Last week, I was so excited and praising God for the miracle of hour house selling and all the next steps falling into place. This week I'm just frustrated and confused. After finally getting settled into the new apartment, getting caught back up on the t0-do list, and adjusting to the new routine, our train got knocked off its track. Our house isn't sold. The deal fell through.

Now, we're living in one bedroom of a condo with two roommates (nice people, but weird to be living with people again), paying a mortgage on a house we don't live in, and renting a storage unit to keep all of our possessions in boxes. Hmm....

There's only a couple things keeping me sane right now. 1). I have amazing parents who do everything in the world to bail us out of our ridiculous situtations and make sure we survive 2). Somewhere behind all the frustration and confusion, I believe that God has a better option than us selling the house for $100 (that's would have been our "profit" had we closed when we were supposed to). I would have happily taken the $100 and gone on with life, but apparently we're supposed to wait for something that will be better off in the long run.

Keep Praying.
