Rent Control

Oh, this blogging might be the death of me yet.

I do not live under the guise that millions of you have faithfully check in everyday with bated breath seeing what new nuggets lie here.  But for those of you who have peeked in to this little corner of web-world, I do apologize for lack of new material.

And today, I come with little entertainment and actually begging for your help.

Kim and I need a place to live. 

The joy of landlords and rent.  We found out this weekend that our rent would increase $100 in September...and we swallowed our stomachs.  So out we are at the end of August.  But the catch is we need to tell our landlord by the end of this week our staying or going plans.

Therefore, my friends, we need to find a place to live by the end of this week.

And contrary to our native popular belief, there are not a lot of places for rent these days.

So I am humbly asking for prayer, prayer, prayer.  Provision.  

We are asking God to set us the neighborhood in which we can best minister to our neighbors.  We are asking for a place where friends, students and random strangers feel comfortable.  And we are asking for financial margin in our budgets that God can use the excess how He sees fit.

So what do you say?  Will you pray for us?  Kim, Sophie and I would be extremely grateful and never taking for granted the awesome power of coming before the throne of God with ANYTHING.  It's humbling isn't it?  And I never want to take it for granted....

"So do not worry, saying 'What shall we eat?' What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?'  For the pagan run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.  But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these thing will be given to you as well.  Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.  Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matthew 6: 31:34

Kim is calling several properties today.  Please pray for her specifically.  There is one we found we LOVE and the opportunities would be incredible, but it is extremely out of our price range and nearly a jillion conditions would need to be met, but we are going to throw it out there, just in case and see what God does!  We are totally leaning into Him.

Thank you friends...

Favorite thing today: There is something about these pictures that just scream out to me.  They might just be hanging in a new house soon....
