Thanks

Thanks so much for the prayers, dear friends!
We have some things that aren't so easily solved to deal with over the next while so it calls for some heart searching and prayer. So keep praying please! We have a guy that isn't following through with his deal on the property that we own and is living in the house. We also desperately need the money from that property to pay off some other debts that we have. We have tried most every reasonable method to get this guy to do things legally and he doesn't seem to want to cooperate. He actually seems to have gone through a personality change since we first met him and we wonder how we got messed up with a guy like him? Legal action is going to cost money and we really don't have that kind of money to spend.
It is a busy time of year. I have corn to freeze and peaches to can this week. I am also hoping to get a few more blueberries. Tomatoes are starting to produce now and we froze some beautiful peppers last week. I just wish I could live off of fresh garden produce and fresh fruit year round and not have to do so much canning and freezing. We are also eating fresh potatoes and green beans--yummy yum.
Last night I was feeling quite stressed out and then our church service was about "beholding the glory of God" It was a good reminder to me. Nothing is too hard for God and we are dearly loved by Him. My job is to embrace the cross He sends and to be open to both the joys and sorrows of life.

    Yeah, you are in a tough situation, and I am praying. I can't give you any advice, other than to keep praying to the One who has the BEST advice. I will keep you all in prayer. Keep us posted.

    We serve a miracle-working God. He can do things that we never even imagined...much better than the legal system. Yet, regardless, God will provide and is also working in your heart. We don't always understand the why's in our lives. In heaven, it will be crystal clear.
