Chance

Well, these weeks just continue to fly by (do I say that every week??). And each week is a reminder that we are creeping ever-closer to the top of this roller coaster . . . you know that feeling?? Where they're bringing you s-l-o-w-l-y to the top of the huge drop off? And then you kind of teeter there for a couple of seconds, directly at the top, ready to roll. That's how this impending move feels to me.

And this has been a big week--our house has gone "live" and is officially on the market!! Granted, we still need to get that "For Sale" sign out in front (details, hmph!), but our ad is online on numerous real estate websites now. Ahhh!! Scary, exciting, and nauseating, all at the same time.

So today's poem is motivated by this circumstance--and more so by all of the naysayers who constantly feel the need to remind me that today's real estate market is--for lack of a better term--crap. Um, thanks for that reminder! At any rate, it gets SO tiring to hear the constant barrage of negativity. Thankfully, I happen to know the Creator of the Universe--so I think we're good :-). Even still, this whole process is going to be a huge faith-tester and faith-booster, and I am trusting in the Lord to do something great here!

So with that in mind, here ya go:

Chance

The house always wins?

Wait quietly for the LORD--

Close the yapping mouth.
