A new Rental Home for our family!

On monday morning. Chris and I were praying to God to show us ways we could lower our bills. We have had three months in a row because of the exchange rate, where we don't make enough money to cover our bills. Yes, this is a bad thing. So, we have been praying for God to show us ways to make our bills less. And, one of the areas we have specifically been praying about is our Rent.

On monday morning an hour after we had been praying. We got a phone call that a house was available for us to come look at. The interesting thing is... 2 months ago we were told this house was available and that we should look at it. However, the church thought that we were going to buy a house so, we didn't go look at it. And, another family signed the lease to start renting it. But, coincidently on Monday morning, that family decided to move to KAlgoorlie(hundreds of miles from perth.) So, they called us right away to come have a look. And, we looked at it at 1:00pm and by 3:00pm we had the paperwork signed. By today (wed.) at 3:00 pm 48 hours later, we were approved and found out we will move in on September 17th.

This is how God works.... Sometimes you ask for more and you get less ( Because, God knows you don't need more.) sometimes God knows that you need more when you are praying for less! This house is a much bigger house and we will be paying $35/week less. We will have office space and a bedroom for each of the kids. We will also have a play room so the house is not a complete toy factory! Also, the church has been desperate for space to have Bible study and room for child care in the same location. And, well we have solved that problem.

Also, just a side note for those woman who are as interested in crafts as I am ..... I will be able to fit a few more tables in for my woman's scrapbooking bible study.. :) So, this is awesome.. God is good.

In His palm,
Melissa
