Today is Monday. On Mondays I fix breakfast for our little family. On Mondays we call it "our day" - because we are together and there is nothing that gets in our way of taking time to be a family on these days. They are a gift. For years, a good friend and mentor encouraged us to take a day together in honor of our vows to God and one another - our marriage is our highest (Earthly) covenant and we want to invest in one another - so we finally landed a few years back with Mondays. I do not talk on the phone, I stay "away" from the world......minus my wife and my kids.
Today, as always - breakfast....a big breakfast.
Yesterday - we showed our house two times....it's for sale. We received two offers. Both were from the same people and we had to reject / counter them both. Still, we are in limbo. Today, we are embarking on the fringe of having our house for sale 30 days now. We are doing FSBO. It will be our 3rd time. We are in the middle of simply trusting the Father and His provisions for our lives and our home. We feel like we can sell this house and move to the next one - we trust in God's faithfulness. That means we will wait for Him. He will provide our meals, our paychecks, and a new home if that were to happen. It's all His.
So, perhaps you can join us in praying that we do trust God the Father and live our lives our of the overflow of our faithfulness to Jesus Christ - and even when we are not faithful to Him - that we come back....and trust him. Always. Forever and ever.
Amen.
Blessings.
