*celebrate good times, come on!

Our house (in NC) sold!

It is worth celebrating.  The truth is, we have had many things to celebrate since our house went on the market a year ago - yes it was on the market for a full year.

Eric left NC in March, so it has been vacant for 6 or so months.  It was a long wait. I know full well that God was doing something all along the way. We were pounding the Heavens with prayers (many of you along with us) and we asked His will to be done, in His timing.  Of course it was done in His timing, but I must tell you that from the time of the offer, til the closing, God was "showing off".  Everyone we have worked with from our agent, to the buyer to the closing agent to the contractor doing repairs, was phenomenal - picture perfect!  We went from an offer in first week in October and closed in the 3rd week of the same month.  Astonishing.

This home holds many special memories for our family and many dear friends, those we will cherish for many years to come, but we are grateful that this house will now become someone elses home.  May as much love, peace and joy - no, may more, fill this house as did when our family lived there.  Good Bye North Carolina, our heart will be fully in Florida now.

  1. Praise the Lord!

    We took a leap of faith when we started building our home in 2008, hoping and praying our other house would sell quickly - and thankfully, it did sell - eventually. It was such a huge burden for us to have them both, God saw that and I believe He worked it out perfectly for us. The circumstances were hopeless, as there were no houses selling, the house was not in a great location...but when it sold, I knew it was God.

    Enjoy your celebration!

  4. That's great news! We're still praying for my parents' home to sell. It's been over a year since they've moved into their new home closer to us. We know that it will sell in His timing!
