Getting Closer to departure

Wow, this last week flew by! I finished summer school on Thursday, Steve and Sue got home Thursday night, we had round 2 of our estate sale Friday and sort of Saturday (it rained all day). Now we are into the final homestretch and there is so much to do. We are still trying to figure out what will happen to our house. Fortunately, God is bringing things into place, we just don't know what the final product will look like yet. We still need to get rid of stuff, pack, get out, and clean our house. Plus try to spend time with family and friends. God is good, and He's giving us the strength we need. I added a countdown timer to when our plane takes off from PDX next week. Pretty crazy.

Last night, it was neat to see God provide for us. We were both stressed about everything that needed to get done. I was actually on the phone with my mom sharing the stresses and how I didn't think I could handle another thing. At the end of the call, a family that Heather had talked to earlier came over to buy one of our car seats. When we told them we just needed to get rid of stuff, they ended up buying stuff and clearing out many boxes for us. One of their daughters and her husband work at a church in Kaiser that could use the kid clothes for families in their congregation so they took probably 5+ boxes worth of kids clothes and blankets. Afterwords Heather and I looked at what was gone and we praised God for meeting us where we were at and providing what we needed (getting stuff out of our house). It was like He was saying "I've got you covered, trust Me."
