Prayer and buying a house

June 24

Our realtor calls and says, "the seller wants to know if your offer of a month ago still stands."

I say yes and I hang up. I turn to see a smiling Joy (my wife) standing behind me. "I'm stunned since they laughed at our offer before but you don't seem at all surprised."

"I'm not, she says, "I have been praying about that house since we saw it."


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