We did something today

"Practicing what I am preaching" my family and I really stepped out and did something today.

First, you have to have some history. We moved to Missouri about 8 years ago and for most of that time worked for a church. Salary included housing so when we left that to become massage therapists and follow our passions to help people find health and healing, we had no resources/equity in houses with which to purchase our own home.

For two years now we have been looking for houses, knowing what we want/need to fulfill our vision/dreams to be a place of healing and respite for folk. But with no resources we have been stymied and paralyzed at every turn. It got to the point that we were just speaking lots of negative thoughts into our lives; was difficult to trust that Loving Father even cared even more.

Finally, recently, we realized it was time to change that and really get back to believing in our Father, and in ourselves; time to believe that we really have what it takes and that we can have what is in our dreams.

So, with that background, we have been looking the last couple of weeks. Saw a house last week that would work in terms of function but needed work and was in the wrong location. Scheduled today to see some more and decided last night that if we saw nothing today that work we would go for the one last week. Even if the location wasn't just right at least it would get us out of the paralyzed mode. We just needed to DO SOMETHING!

Today we went looking, walked into the first house, one for which we had the least expectations and wouldn't you know? It was the perfect house for us! Better than we could have imagined, perfect for the "haven" which we want to be available to people who need our services and information.

AND - get this - we put a contract on the house! We DID SOMETHING! Hallelujah!

And you know what else - even better than that? YOU CAN DO SOMETHING TOO! Whatever it is, take the first step.

Tell us about it!
