I am in love, and we need prayers

I have been checking this place out since last July. After seeing it, I even went so far as to go thru the place with a realtor, then I proceeded to talk with my loan officer. Problem was I didn't have enough equity in our current home to sell and have a down payment. The farm, 26 acres of this beauty is still for sale and I now hope (10 months later) to have enough into our place to sell (refinanced last summer) and still have a down payment. But, there is a bottom dollar I can accept for my current home, and with this market I am not so sure we will get it. Today the girls and I went out there after church and prayed a family prayer over the farm, and the circumstance to move in our favor if purchasing this little beauty was the direction for our family. If you are the praying kind, please pray with us for all things to line up for the purchase or shut down tight so we know that we are not to take this move.

I know it looks cold now, but when we were standing out in the yard last July, feeling the warm breeze and watching the sun go down, it was truly glorious
