Yesterday’s blog ended with Jesus’ admonition that we should always pray and never give up. (Luke 18.1)

So how am I feeling about our prayers for the house sale? I had asked for:

• The right people
• The right price
• The right time

I haven’t met the people who tendered the offer, but I know they are a 49-year-old married couple, one of whose mothers is going to move into the house with them. The price was certainly right: our asking price and cash.

What about “the right time”? I thought “now” would be the right time, but apparently God thought later would be just fine. These folks can’t buy our house until they sell theirs. A central theme of this move has been blessing others, mainly with our excess furniture. I think our house is going to bless these people. They’re moving from a 2,000 square-foot, two-bedroom house in the desert to a 3,600 square-foot, four-bedroom house in the woods. It will feel like a mansion.

So we pray…for no glitches in the process and a quick sale of a home in the Phoenix area. As always,

We should always pray and never give up. – Jesus
