Play Ball!

So, the dream house was fake, someone posting a prank.
We talked to the agent, and it's definitely not renting.

Disappointing? Yes. It was a cool story. But I had reservations about such a big place and I'm still forever connected with that beautiful sunrise experience.

The question is: it was counterfeit, but is it coincidence?
Perhaps God used this miscreant to keep my attention
on a neighborhood where God is working to meet needs.

And we're so thankful for all the good. We can't overlook
the miracle day series of events (from a power outage to ER).

God turns plays. Every situation, no matter how uncomfortable,
God turns obstacles into opportunities!

No matter what life throws at you, God can turn two...
sort of a divine Ozzie Smith : )

We're in this thing now, suited up and ready to play.
Swing for the fences. Dive for the ball. Run through! Shake it off!
Come what may, we're here to play.

Guess all I ever really needed to know...
I learned in Little League baseball :)

Church is a Team Sport, and what a team we have!

I'm amazed at all the friends we've made in just two weeks.
And getting a rental near Nat's train, central to the region and kids
across the street (7, 8, 14) for Macy (8) and Levin (7) to play with.

Nat and I are thrilled to have two incomes (first time in 8 years!)
in work that's challenging and fun. We can finally pay off debts!

So being fooled is neither embarrassing or sad. It's just part of life.
A swing and a miss.

I'm ready to step up to the plate... and Play Ball!
