Disappointment

Well, after having our house conditionally sold for two weeks, then signing the papers for the sale on Thursday, unfortunately the deal fell through last night. To say we are disappointed would be a understatment at best.

This is one of those times that although we know that God is faithful and we only have to look back in our lives to see evidence of it, we are asking "why"? I was talking with a friend last night and she was telling me the difference between belief and faith - we can believe that a chair will hold us, however faith is actually sitting in the chair. We believe God is faithful and has everything in control, but having the faith to actually rest in that promise can sometimes be really difficult, especially during the hard, disappointing times.

Right now we are praying for wisdom and guidance to know for sure what we should do. Our moving date is exactly two weeks from today, Dec 13/08 and there is a lot that needs to happen between now and then. We would appreciate any additional prayers for wisdom at this time.
