Things have not been going "according to as planned" with the closing of our house. The sellers side is holding everything up. The property we bought was a home and 80 acres. The seller didn't want or need the house. They only wanted the land to farm. They put the house and 5 acres up for sale, which is what we bought. After having the land surveyed, we ended up with 6.24 acres, an added bonus! They had to draw up a new abstract and get that all legalized and filed with the county. That is taking longer than anticipated, so we wait. They are saying closing will now happen hopefully by next Wednesday!
I've been a little anxious as there are many things that need to be done in the house before we can move in on the 24th.
When our realtor called yesterday and told us of the new closing time, I lost it! "How on earth are we going to get this all done before moving"? I told her. Being the wonderful realtor that she is, she immediately contacted the seller's realtor and said "The buyers will take possession of the house at 8:00 a.m. on Friday morning"!! So, we may not close until next week, but at least now we can get in and begin our work. I am relieved at that and thankful that the Lord allowed that to happen.
This whole process has been a learning experience of waiting on the Lord's perfect timing. He knows what is best and *I* have to rest and trust in that!
