SOLD!!!!

Yes, you read the title correctly . . . it says, "SOLD!!!!" Our house, that is.

Here's the funny/Divine details . . .

Way back in the summertime, a house a few blocks away from ours went up for sale. Through strange circumstances, it came to our attention that these people used to own our house back in the day. After meeting them at a neighborhood yard sale, we were informed that they would love to buy our house back, but they needed to sell their house first. And we all know what the housing market has been like lately ~ we were not holding our breath.

For those of you who attend our church, you know that we are in the midst of a Capital Campaign & that the date of the "First Fruits" offering was November 18th. So we made that our new deadline. Just a few weeks ago, we began praying earnestly that God would sell our home before the First Fruits offering.

Sunday morning came & went . . . no sale. On Sunday afternoon, we stopped to gas up the van at Sheetz & noticed that that same house had a "SOLD" sign on it. The questions started to fly ~ "I wonder when it sold?" "I wonder if they're still interested in our house?" "Maybe they've changed their minds & want something different?" We had not heard a word of interest, so we assumed the worst. Oh ye of little faith.

Tonight at dinner, we got the official phonecall. Those same people put in a bid on our house on Friday, but through miscommunications in the office, we were just hearing about it tonight. We fax the papers tomorrow. Our house is SOLD!!!!!

With God all things are possible!!!!
