Welcome New RV

Well, it's been a couple of crazy weeks. Last time I wrote, Ben and I were waiting to see if we actually got the RV...well we did!! Yay!! Since then, I've been meaning to write and get pictures up here, but things got a little crazy. So anyway, here we go:


Here we are the day that we bought the RV.

This is looking towards the back of the RV.


The kitchen.

Living Room/Dining Room.


The outside (it's covered because Ben fixed a little leak in the roof).

Thank you to everyone for all your prayers! We are very excited to have this RV and are working on getting it cleaned and fixed up and ready to go out on the road starting in January!!

3, 2, 1...

Last night Ben and I went to look at an RV that was a 3 hour drive away. We found the RV on Craigslist and felt we needed to jump on the chance to go look at it, since it is something within our price range.
We went and looked and both of us really like it!!
So we are getting it!!!
Yep that's right we have found the RV for us! Although I am feeling a bit on the anxious side, as we won't go and get it until Saturday...and I keep thinking, "What if this gets sold out from underneath us?"
But,

"Perseverance must finish it's work so that we may be mature and complete and not lacking anything." James 1.4

Am I going to trust the Lord with this?
I kind of feel like I am holding my breath...but to hold my breath until Saturday is a long time! So the only thing I can do is to turn my eyes toward Jesus and know that he is in control. If this is the RV for us, then everything will be fine. If it's not, well, then the Lord has something even better in mind and who am I to go against the Lord's best?

So I am asking for prayer...
-That Ben and I will continue to trust the Lord to provide.
-That everything works out with this RV and that we get to go pick up our new home on Saturday.
-That all the anxiousness that I am feeling would be laid down at the foot of the cross as I seek to trust the One who knows my heart best.
