Over due

Too much has happened to recap in deal seeing that the last time I blogged it was 2009, we were looking at buying a house, headed to Africa and so on. Now it's 2010, we are not buying a house and not going to Africa. God has done a number on us and it has been one-such-an-adventure. The house, and the houses after that, fell through at the very last minute after each time we felt peace to move forward on such sure deals. The beautiful of it all was how we had peace when each house was a final no. What we gained from the experience then was learning more about our faith as a family when God is asking us to move. We both learned and experienced what it would look like when God would move Alex and I and then we would make a decision together. What a bonding moment for all three of us! Trusting each other while not know what God was doing but having faith in His steps before us.

Even months later we are still getting confirmation from God on how we were not suppose to get a house right now, even if it is a "buyers market" right now. I love how our Lord works and makes Himself known to us. I love how He even uses it two-fold by also teaching us something in addition or bring us closer to others or answering other prayers. Or such as answering prayers. We have been praying, asking God what life looks like after Alex graduates. Through this journey we are more than confident to say in the apartment until he is done and then God will reveal something then. Something we new but now have confirmation to hold true to that truth.

Also, God shut the door to Africa the same day He opened a door to Haiti. Again there is more but the it all boils down to God making Himself known to the Constien Family in a way that has given us inspiration to keep on keeping on for His Glory!
