The Lilies of the Field (UPDATE)
I thought I would update you briefly on what is going on with our housing situation. In our previous post on this subject I mentioned how we were quite up in the air, and asked for prayer regarding God's leading.
We want to thank you for your prayers, and report that God led in a very specific way. Namely, He closed every door except for the option that we absolutely did NOT want to do--move in to the vacant dorm at the seminary. Having settled on this option (it did indeed turn out to be the only option), we are finding out that God had a plan in mind, and that not only was it the only option--it was the best option. Staying here will allow us to live much more economically. It will give us much more contact with the students to whom we minister. Mikey and Nathan will have plenty of room to roam without ever leaving the grounds. And I have even started a vegetable garden.
I was just talking to my mom online, and trying to describe for her where we now live. Then I remembered Skitch, and sent her this picture...
...and this one...
Later I will take some pictures of the inside of the house, as well as of my garden!
