Leap of Faith

When I hear the phrase "leap of faith," an image of Indiana Jones pops in my head.  You know the one, where he is to walk across an invisible bridge.  Brave as he is, ole' Indiana hesitates before taking that first, big step into what looks like thin air.

I took a "leap of faith" about two weeks ago.  I don't think I ever prayed over an email before that day - but I did.  I sent in my 60 day notice to the apartment complex.  Not that big of a deal, right? 

Let me explain.  We are scheduled to move out of our apartment by June 14 (the same day the baby is due). As of right now, we don't have a set place to move in to.

Awesome thing about having faith  - all you need is a mustard seed.  Mrs. C (Becca's Mom) and I had a wonderful convesation just a couple of days after I hit send on that email.  She reminded me that we have all the faith we need already  inside us - we just have to trust in it. 

Since the email, we have found a realtor who has been very helpful.  She gave us a list of several homes that match our criteria, we gave her a list of about 11 homes we were interested in.  She was able to weed out homes and show us ones worth looking into.  Our number one favorite is under contract - but thanks to her, we got to see our number two and three pick.  Turns out, we LOVE the number two pick and we are planning on putting in an application for it in the morning.

This is where faith comes in.  We've asked God for a home.  We have faith that God will provide.  Now it's just a matter of details - which I feel will be handled for us.  I know that if we are meant to have this house - God will provide it. 

I will keep you posted on the results!  Pray for this situation for us!  Thanks!
