Selling via the Kingdom

I have this notebook and about every month or so I write in it. I write about blessings that happen and words of knowledge that the Lord has given to me. It was started in June 07 and I love it because I can look back and see all the great things that happen to me and it makes me feel a lot better about life when I'm feeling down.

Last night I was writing in my notebook and when I finished I set it down and started to work on my bible study. About half way through my lesson I felt like the Lord was telling me to pick up my notebook and look back at what I wrote down for the end of August 2007, right around the same time as this past weekend.

This past Saturday the for sale sign was put in our front yard. We'd talked about putting it up for sale but never really acted on it until last week when we decided that yes it is time. When I open up my notebook and look at August 2007 I realized that the same day one year ago was when we were at our friend's house in S.Lyon and I heard the Lord clearly tell me this would be my new home. I about cried it was so amazing!! I'm so excited to see what will happen in the next few months

Welcome to 516 N Elizabeth St.

We finally did it, we put our sweet little house up for sale. God told me last summer that it's time to move. Most people think we're crazy because of the market, I think I'm being obedient even though it's not easy.

In the news

See if you can find me in this article
Then, see if you can find the pretty obvious editing and content mistake the reporter made. After watching this woman write her notes down I'm not surprised she screwed up, it looked like pure chicken scratch.

Raise the Roof

Watching the elephant raise the tent at the circus in Redford this morning. Note to self, next time don't go at 8:30AM like it's says in the paper. Wait until about 9:25 to show up and see the 5 minutes worth of elephant. Otherwise all you'll see for an hour is Mexican workers pulling a big tent around for an hour, booooring.

I also wonder if the elephant is just for show because they're using this little tractor too. hmmm, odd.

Congrats!

Congratualtions to Ryan & Megan our friends and Bradley students who welcomed Ava Elizabeth this morning at 6:10AM. Ava weighed in at a whopping 9lb. 7oz. and was 22" long.
