Hey gang! I am beginning to think that Ken and I have bad luck and I am an AVID non-believer in luck...as a child of God, it has never really existed in my world, but it is slowly creeping in :)
In short, we did not close on our rental property yesterday. We got to the closing table, spent two hours reviewing and signing documents, and walked away thinking that we were closed. Well, when we left, our tenants, who had parents co-signing for them, decided that they were not happy with the loan product. The lender was not real truthful about what they were getting. So, we are back to the drawing board, still with two tenants.
Our prayer was that we would sell at least one of the properties before we adopted so one or two things is going on. Either, we will not be adopting a baby ANYTIME soon or we are destined to keep these properties FOREVER...LORD HELP US!

Oh sister, I'm so sorry you are discouraged. Once again, all I can say is I REMEMBER!!! : ( It's SOOOOOOOOO HARD!!! I wish I could just say something to fix it all Please don't take what I desire to share as Bible bandaids (that's what I used to call them) b/c I know YOU know God's truths!!! What I feel led to say is KEEP clinging to HIM who does not disappoint, to Him whose love never fails, and to Him who is with you and will watch over you wherever you go, who is faithful to all His promises and loving toward ALL He has made : ) He may not give you a baby tomorrow, sister, BUT He will turn your mourning into dancing! He will renew a right spirit within you! And I wish I could give you a BIG HUG!!! I'm praying for you and the baby the Lord ordained BEFORE time to be yours!!! I don't know if that ever encourages you or not, sister, but that was ALWAYS an encouragement to me when I was struggling....when I was able to remember that I didn't want just "any baby", BUT I wanted the baby the Lord had ordained to be our baby before there was time....when I was able to seperate myself from the longing and emotions and focus on that amazing truth, it somehow helped me come out of the fog of emotions and trust Him for His perfect timing. I say this all with much love and hmmmmm....empathy b/c I KNOW it's hard....it's just hard! But hang in there, sister - praying for that property too!!!
