House for Sale


This summer  along with the wedding we were  preparing our house to be for sale.  It went on the market in May 24th.  We showed the house once before the wedding.  There was another showing last Thursday.  This time they want to see the house again.  The realtor is hopeful they will make an offer.  This brings up many emotions.  Yes we have agreed we cannot keep the house.  It is too hard to manage a home living half way around the world.  Our kids as of right now do not live here. It belongs to God.  It is His.  But what do we do with all the stuff in it.  We have lived in the same home for over 17 years.  We have accumulated a lot of stuff.  What do we store, sell and take with?  It is God’s.  Help us remember and give us wisdom.

We have missionary friends with Wycliffe that state on their blog Matthew 13:44.... 
"selling everything to buy a field"
