Buying a Home

June 24

When we arrive in New England I ask Joy how she feels about that house we saw in Florida. She suggests offering what we can afford and leave it at that. Steve presents our offer and the other realtor laughs. That is that, we'll look again in the fall. A month later Steve calls, "The owner wants to know if your offer still stands?” I’m stunned but Joy isn’t at all surprised.

"I have been praying about that house since we saw it," Joy says.

In three weeks we have our new home.

“Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.” (John 16:24)
