Praise God from Whom ALL Blessings Flow

I have a big praise to let everyone know about, as well as asking for some mega praying.  (Is there such a thing as mega praying???) 

We had a wonderful family come and look at half the ranch on Sunday.  It is a family of 5, with the oldest 2 children grown and married with children.  The youngest is still at home and is Josh's age!  They are homeschooling, are Christians, and are a sweet family.  They have registered Angus cows (!), raise horses (!!), do 4-H, show steers, and do rodeos.  The greatest thing is that they are really interested in making the whole neighbor thing work.  I mean really work.  They don't want to be your "average" neighbor.  They are wanting a good friendship.  They are only interested in part of the ranch which means that we would both be able to run about 170 cows.  A good amount. 

After a plethora of e-mails back and forth, they are coming out Sunday to join our church for Lunch, and then they will stay and we will talk some more.  Please be praying that we would be able to work it out so that we can both do what we are able to do.  Time wise, this couldn't be better.  We were both needing to get something worked out ASAP.  They have a lease that is expiring, and we need to get something moving!  (Doesn't that sound like God?) 

One of the things that was talked about was that instead of us selling the headquarters and have to build and move, they would buy the raw land and they would build and move.  (instead of us both moving)  Because the relationship is such, they could use our corrals until they get theirs built. 
At first we were a bit unexcited about this option.  As Mom and Dad talked it over, we realized that it would be a bit of work, but not bad to get this place fixed up the way we want it.  Plus it would save us the headache of building and moving.... :)  We would build a new house, just slowly and with us working on it which would save us a lot of money and we can build it just how we want it.

I had to share our praise with you and let you know.  I know many of our friends have been praying with us for a looong time. I can't tell you how much I appreciate it.  For those of you who don't know, you know how to pray for my family!  No, nothing is on paper and signed, but we feel like that is where it is headed.  Please be praying for open doors if this is where God has us going.


In His Strong Arms,
Rebecca
