As for the house, I think SS and DM have decided to let it go, which is fine with us. The auction is now rescheduled for this Wednesday, November 28th. We still have no idea what God has in store, but I have complete confidence that it will all work out.
Lately, I’ve been reflecting on why we’re going through this process. I truly believe God is stripping away anything we’ve relied on other than Him. For so many years, my job, my credit, and even my credit cards became my safety net—my gods. And now, He’s asking us to lay them on the altar and trust Him alone for our provision.
That led me to think about Abraham. Could it be that he had idolized Isaac? After waiting so long for a son, I can completely understand how that could happen. Maybe God wasn’t just testing Abraham’s faith—maybe He was asking him to surrender something that had taken priority over God Himself. That realization hit me in a way it never had before. Suddenly, Abraham felt so human to me—so relatable, fallible, and real.
God keeps amazing me with these deeper insights into the people of the Bible, making them tangible, making them alive.
Tom and I keep going back and forth about getting licensed. Tom keeps asking, “Why are we doing this?”—and honestly, we don’t even know. In the end, we may not get approved at all. Part of the interview process requires a background and credit check, and with our current financial situation, I’d imagine our credit is not looking great. If that’s the case, we’ll be denied.
So how will this all turn out? I have no idea.
And the plot thickens! :)
