“We just bought a new home. This has been a dream that my husband and have for ages. We’ve lived in a trailer previously and outgrew it. We’ve just worked really hard, hoping we could get something to work out. We looked and searched for two years. It’s kind of funny how God worked it all out.
“The house that we bought was my favorite teacher’s and good friend. When she first was moving, she contacted me and said, ‘I’ve heard you’re looking at houses. We’re selling ours, not sure what you’re interested in. I looked at it and said, ‘I don’t think this is going to be in our price range’. “I didn’t even think about it again. They had it up for sale. We looked at other places. We just weren’t feeling comfortable with the mortgage company we were with, so we decided to just take a break. We took off a couple months in the winter, and then started looking again. “We decided to go with a different mortgage company. We loved them! It was a great experience. So I started looking at houses again. They sat down with us and said, ‘This is what you qualify for’, which was actually quite a bit higher than what the other mortgage company said. We were still a little nervous, though. We want to make sure we’re financially responsible with our money. “So we got a number we were comfortable with and started looking again. My friend’s house was still for sale. So, we went to look at it again. We fell in love with it. Then after the closing and everything, my friend said, ‘I just want to tell you that when I was first looking to sell, and kept thinking, ‘Who do I know that would want to buy our house, you popped into my mind’. “It’s just awesome how God worked things out perfectly. It’s funny now that you look back on it, you’re like, ‘Oh, ok. I see how God was working that out.’”
