LOL, I say Renter's forever because that's what it feels like right now... maybe in about 10 years when we make more money and are able to actually save then maybe once the market has gone up and then down again we'll be able to consider buying a house.
Listening to this song by Francesca Battistelli called "Beautiful, Beautiful." And I feel like this song was written just for me sometimes because I feel like my life is kind of a mess right now but God is making my life into something Beautiful. Just like a tapestry, when you flip to the back it looks like a mess but when it's finished it's a beautiful masterpiece. I know that all the things in my life are put into place for a reason, I just sit with Hope and Faith that God is turning this mess of a life into something so Beautiful, Beautiful. I am waiting in anticipation ALL the great and wonderful things He is working out for our future.
Here are some lyrics I will listening to with the song:
"Don't know how it is you looked at me
And saw the person I could be
Awakening my heart breaking through dark
Suddenly your grace
Like sunlight burning at midnight
making my life something so beautiful, beautiful
Mercy reaching to save me
All I need is you
So Beautiful, Beautiful
There's a joy inside I can't contain
But even perfect days can end in rain
I know it's more in doubt I can see you though the clouds
Shining on my face"

Great song, super message, REALLY gifted singer/songwriter... I just bought Francesca's EP on iTunes. Her entire CD comes out in July -- and I can't wait!!!
Geez, you and I are in the same boat, sister. :) I feel like we'll never own a home. And I like to think that God has "more" in store for us (i.e. homeownership) but when I really think about it... Maybe owning a home is NOT in my future. Maybe that's not one of God's blessings fr me. Maybe He wants me to learn to be content with what I have - and what if it takes my whole lifetime for me to get to that place of contentedness? Believe me, I hope this is NOT the case. But still... I wonder...
I don't mean in any way to rain on your parade... :) I just wanted to share my heart with someone who feels like I do a lot of the time. Know what I mean?
WDYT?
