Prayer, Please!

Tuesday, November 13, 2012


I sent this email to number of friends and family this morning and thought I'd post it here too in case anyone checks this before 2pm today and would like to lift us up.  Thank you!

Good Morning Y'all,

Most of you probably saw my update on Facebook yesterday, but for those that didn't, here is the latest:

Our buyers' loan is in final underwriting, but they have not given us a closing date. We have been granted an extension by our sellers and their lender (huge praise that this came through already!), but the extension states that we must close by November 30th. 

Since the "For Sale" sign went up over six months ago, you all have been so faithful to pray for and support us through this insane saga.  We would like to ask you to intercede yet again, but this time at a specific moment.  If you are able, will you please take time at 2pm today and lift us up?  There is nothing magical about this day or hour, but I do believe in the power of prayer and in the power of a number of people praying together for the same thing.  

Here are our requests:
  • First and foremost, that God's will be done, whatever that might be.  Since we lost our first contract, that has been my honest prayer.  We want His best and His timing, regardless of whether that includes a new house right now.
  • That IF this is God's plan, that we will be able to close on BOTH houses before Thanksgiving.  
  • That all of us, especially Audrey, will adjust accordingly be it in new surroundings or existing ones. 
  • Pray for strength and endurance to see this through a little longer - this process has been long and tiresome, and we are incredibly ready to be settled one way or another.  

Thank you all so much!  We love and appreciate you more than you know!

David & Heather
