We don't know where to begin with this post, so much has happened in the last week, so how about the beginning. Two weeks ago we had a 'looker' at an open house on Sunday. Monday they want a second look and utility bills. Wednesday is the third look and a contract. The offer was very bad, so we countered back with the original amount of sale and a couple other tweaks. The buyers counter came back this time with only a $1000 reduction in price. So on Friday, (my Dad's 80th birthday the Lord sold our house. Wow!
The buyer set a closing date of Nov. 2 which gives us 6 weeks to wrap everything up. Knowing that God will orchestrate everything, Hal called FamilyLife with the good news. Since then we have received the approval to come look at homes in Little Rock and try to move right after closing on Nov. 2. We will go to Little Rock on Oct 1 to look for a new home. God already has the right house for us, hopefully within 10-15 minutes of FamilyLife.
Pray that we find our home quick, the seller will accept our offer, and we can close the beginning of November. Pray also that the remaining 19% of our support comes in quickly because Hal will have to come back to Tulsa to finish if we do not have 100%. That means that even though we are in Little Rock, Hal cannot start serving until that goal is met. We need about 20 to 'partner with us in the gospel' at $100 or 40 at $50 or any other combination. We are also looking for more prayer warriors.
Exciting days are ahead as we see God's hand at work every day.
Hal
