Housing
Monday, February 12, 2007Today I was thinking of the need once again to find a place to live. I’m not totally sure about the 3-5 year house-sitting plan, but it doesn’t look good in my favor. So that leads to the point of looking—either for a place to buy or a place to rent. I’ve always thought of renting as a waste of money, but with my current income, I might be able to borrow $50-75k. That, as you may already thinking, won’t buy much! So, the other options available are buying something like a camper-trailer, or renting something small like a studio apartment.
I know God is faithful and fully trustworthy. Just knowing what to do is often the problem. Some say, “What are you trusting God for?”—meaning: make a list and believe God to fill it. That sounds good, but my list is short: A place to live. A garage would be nice, a place for my tools and possibly to work on other’s vehicles and the like. But that’s extras that aren’t a part of the contract.
We’ll see what God does! In the mean time it’s prayer for wisdom and foot-leather (or is it elbow grease?)
