The Lights Are On, But Nobody Came To Visit

Is it an "Open House" if no one comes to look? That's my question concerning this last weekend. We had an open house on both Saturday and Sunday, and not one soul came by. Actually, in the last 7 months of our home being on the market, we have yet to have even one person come by to look at the property. According to the comps in our area, we have the home priced correctly. We keep the property clean. Folks have even taken fliers from our signpost out front. Still, not one person has come to look. It would appear that I jumped ship in Oakhurst too soon. Here's to hoping that everything is resolved soon.

House and Home

Moving your place of employment before you are sure that you can sell your house is a task best left to those with either lots of money, or a desire to live out of a suitcase for a length of time. Not being the former, I fall into the latter category. That said, there is still a home for sale in a beautiful neighborhood of Mariposa.
It brings to mind a song I learned as a child. Sing along if you know the song.

Have patience, have patience. Don't be in such a hurry.

It's hard to wait. Our family prayer request is that the home either sell, I manage a transfer back to the area I worked in, or that God come up with something better. I'm open to ideas. I am also looking forward to being able to sleep in my own bed again.

Now. On a different note. I'm feeling nostalgic. If you were born in the late 70s or early 80s, click on the links below to take yourself back to what was likely a church program you did as a kid.

If you feel the need to listen to these songs again, you can find them here. 28 years later, and they're still selling.

Can That Mustard Seed Move Me FROM The Mountain?

Pray, if you would, for the timing in all of our family's future affairs. In the next few weeks I expect to be called to report to Bakersfield for my new job. My wife will soon need to start going to the doctor every two weeks for checkups. We have a house to sell. Hopefully it will draw a buyer soon. I know that finding a buyer this time of year can be more difficult. By December my wife will need to go to the doctor's office every week. Very soon we will be downsizing our income: we have planned for my wife to stop working at the office when the baby is born.

There's a lot that will be going on in a very small amount of time. Throw all of this into the mix; birthdays, Christmas, Thanksgiving, a birth, a home sale, a home purchase, packing and moving a lot of stuff. To be honest - I hope that the LORD really is behind this move, because it will be too difficult to handle on our own.

With all of this on our plate, I ask that you would help us by mentioning us in your prayers. Hopefully, we'll be inviting you all over to our new home sometime soon. I can almost feel myself losing another game of Settlers of Catan (you know who you are).

All in the LORD's timing.

Matthew 17:20

20He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."
