Fiasco!

Crazy busy lately. Things just haven't gone my way for about two weeks now. I don't know what it is but everything I try to do is about three times more difficult than it should be. Despite that, or better, in spite of that, God is demonstrating his love for me.

As Provider, he is kind and gracious. We have finally found a house to rent. It is beautiful and much more than I deserve. Pictures will come shortly (be about a week and a half). It was a fiasco trying to get everything settled. When the troubles first came I just though it was a little inconvenient. Inconvenience gave way to ridiculous. Then a couple days ago I officially deemed the situation a fiasco. In fact it's still not all settled yet. We sign/close (or whatever) on Sunday while I'll be in Charleston, SC!

As sovereign Lord, he is powerful and loving. I have to say that the more trouble I'm in, the more I try to figure out just what that trouble was intended for. I think this comes from a healthy understanding of God's sovereignty. Why was I allowed to go through trying times such as those? What fruit of the Spirit is God cultivating in me with all of this pruning?


As my Advocate, I trust him.
