Ever felt like that with something that has caused you stress? As some of you might know, my wife and I are trying to sell a house. We purchased our first house in 2004 about 2 miles from Mandarin Christian School. Around that time we found out we were expecting our third child and my mother (a widow) had moved in with us. This house was now way too small. Then, we learned of something called a "pre-payment penalty." Hey thanks mortgage company. Ouch. So we had to rent it out until that time elapsed. Well the renter moved out and the time to sell is here.
So now we are trying desperately to sell it at a time when there are enough empty homes out there for everyone to own two each. Did I happen to mention that we are paying two mortgages for 5 months? "Savings" account...nice knowing you.
I will be the first to admit that I am not overlooking the fact that I am blessed beyond what I deserve. Who am I to complain when some people are homeless? Or don't have a job to pay a mortgage. All true. Which is another reason I am trying not to stress. We have made it this far by allowing God to fill the needs. And now I think God might be telling us to lower our asking price and just get rid of it. Gulp...here, just take it.
