timing.


Yesterday we met with a sweet woman who is putting our house on the market to LEASE.
LEASE, not SELL.
Why?
Because we are moving in TWO WEEKS and still haven't had an offer on our home.
I'm feeling a bit sick inside-- a kind of deja vu... 
5 years ago we were in the SAME predicament.
Surely that wouldn't happen to us TWICE?  right?!

Today I really, really want to sell my house. 
I don't want to rent it-- I want to be DONE with it.
I want to see a miracle in my life.

I had a friend tell me yesterday, while we were packing up my linen closet,
"Let it go.  Just accept whatever happens.  It doesn't have to be your plan to be a great plan." (thanks julie)
And then I read the quote "Faith in God includes faith in his timing." from this blog (thanks Heather)
Blah!!???!!!!

And I thought... 
1. I can't change my situation.
2. I can change my attitude.
and I remembered this scripture...
"Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed."
D&C 123:17


I think I want that scripture tattooed across my chest...
CHEERFULLY DO, STAND STILL and SEE!!!!
It's all about timing!! 
And I'm trying not to yell at God to HURRY UP!!
Life is good... (and hopefully better tomorrow.)


and, can't i just whine for a little bit?
Life is good... but it's HARD!!!!
ok, i'm done...
time to turn OFF my tv (for kids) and computer (for me) and start scripture time...
another day, another day...
