First Step

The first step in our process to making Restoration Farm a reality began today. We placed our house in Louisburg, KS on the market and it will be listed with ReMax of Louisburg.

Once our house has sold we will begin to look seriously for the farm that we will call Restoration Farm.

Sometimes as you go through a process like this you become disappointed with either how slow things are going or how things are developing. It isn't wrong to be disappointed but we need to avoid it becoming a discouragement.

With the housing market like it is our wait may be 6 months to a year before we can actually purchase the farm. In the mean time we need to be continually moving forward to our dream. It may mean taking a different route to our dream but we need to keep moving forward.

To me it is like this: Pray then plan, pray and then act, pray and then achieve. I believe as I pray and then act as if the prayer I just asked will be answered God will meet me wherever I am on the path to making the dream He gave me a reality.

The real first step just took place today. Please come back often to see what updates I have posted. Not every post will be an update but it could have a little nugget of gold just for you.

Update 9-16-2011 We experienced a minor hick-up this week when our realtor let us know she was changing agencies so it will be another week or so before our house actually goes on the market.
