Hello Friends! I'm so happy to be back!! All of my needless worrying..gone. The Lord prepared the way for us to find the perfect home. I looked at so many homes, and this one welcomed me with a peaceful, serene feeling the minute I crossed the threshold into the home. It sits on top of a hill about 10 minutes outside of the town. I have two acres, and three neighbors. One of the neighbors (across the street) has a large horse ranch that takes up most of the acreage. There are two homes on either side (a nice distance away) and the view from the back porch is Stunning! The inside is so beautiful with windows everywhere that lights up the home with a lovely glow! A bright light home. The kitchen and breakfast room is an entire wall of windows facing the view. It's lovely! You are viewing the home now, in winter; but in the spring and summer the trees are green and the grass is lush. The sky is forever out here! It reminds me of Montana. We are so happy and pleased with our new home, I can hardly wait to move!! The floor plan is open and airy with vaulted ceilings~and I even have a perfect sewing room with shelves built in the closet for fabric. (the lady that owned the home was a quilter) Thank you Lord! The Lord is Great! How could I have doubted?
This leaves me with my home to sell, and I will not doubt that this will happen. I will pray for faith, and forgiveness for not believing that my life is in the hands of the Lord, that the Father has a plan for my life as a child of the Living God, and that even the smallest details are looked after and fulfilled by my Creator.
I would like to thank you so much for your prayers, and continued prayers for this wonderful adventure that we are on.
I must mention also that the people of Marshalltown are so welcoming, and friendly. I was overwhelmed at the kindness of strangers during my stay there. What a Lovely Town!!

  1. How fabulous! Looks like the perfect home. And what a great view and yard. You sure were blessed in finding it. I bet you can't wait to see what flowers come up and where you can plant new things. How fun! Happy packing! And I'll keep praying for a buyer for your old house.

  6. Congratulations on your new home. We just moved into a very small cottage ourselves. IT is enough for us and i'm thrilled to know that for the next few years we'll be renovating it. I hope you find much joy within the walls of your new place.

  8. Your new home looks divine, and I'll bet you're going to have lots of fun decorating and putting things away (always the best part of a move IMO)!
