I felt the Lord impress on my heart it was finally the right time to put my house on the market. In the 14 years we lived in that house there were many wonderful memories of my little ones growing up, times at the dinner table with family, making home improvements and entertaining friends. There were also many losses endured and regretful memories. I had debated off and on over the last several years whether or not I should sell it. But not until recently, did I receive confirmation in my spirit “it’s time”.

Statistics in the current housing market were not looking too favorable, but I was reminded the Lord is above any and all statistics. So, I moved forward in faith and obedience, entrusting the outcome to Him.

With the help of my realtor, who also happens to be a sweet friend of mine for many years, we received a listing price offer in under 3 weeks. The entire process ran smoothly and I was asked for only 2 minor repairs after the inspection. Closing was completed this week without a hitch! So, yes… the Lord is above any statistic. When He wills it, it will happen.

And although I had 1 good cry saying goodbye to my home, it is still just brick and mortar. My home is wherever the Lord leads and my heart feels fully at home in my new, “smaller” place because He guided me here. And I know He’ll continue to guide and provide on the road ahead.

“Unless the LORD builds a house, the work of the builders is wasted. Unless the LORD protects a city, guarding it with sentries will do no good.” Psalm 127:1

“My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the LORD. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine” Isaiah 55:8
