Healer

I am getting to experience a rare moment of "me" time tonight. I am a person who NEEDS this time. Our life stays so constant, I rarely get it. I am enjoying quiet and reflecting on everything that has been going on. I know that I have talked so much about our housing situation. And just when we thought it was over. It continues. While refinancing our Newcastle house, we found out that we bought this house thinking it was bigger than it really is. Dont get me wrong, we LOVE this house, and it does not change that fact. This is our home, and we love it. The bottom line is we paid a price for a house that was a certain size, and it is NOT that size. Well, I guess thats "to be determined". I really do like our builder, and he has been nothing but a pleasure to work with, so I dont want to think of him as a deceiver. If anything, it is an honest mistake.. but I do think that it needs to be fixed. He is insistent that he is correct in the square footage, which is WONDERFUL.. he just has to show us WHERE it is. An appraiser has been out twice now and has come up with the same square footage both times.. and it is not the correct amount. Needless to say, there will be a meeting of the minds tomorrow. And I am sure there will be tears shed. Mine. Its time to quit being beat up.

So.. all of that to say. I am listening to sweet sweet Kari Jobe. I have listened to this song over and over and everytime I listen, I think of my cousin who is fighting brain cancer. And what an encouragement these words would be for her. But tonight, they are more for me.. Here are the words.

You hold my every moment
You calm my raging seas
You walk with me through fire
And heal all my disease

I trust in You
I trust in You

I believe You're my healer
I believe You are all I need
I believe You're my portion
I believe You're more than enough for me
Jesus, You're all I need

You hold my every moment
You calm my raging seas
You walk with me through fire
And heal all my disease

I trust in You
I trust in You

I believe You're my healer
I believe You are all I need
I believe You're my portion
I believe You're more than enough for me
Jesus, You're all I need

Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible for You

Jesus is all my family needs. What a blessing. He is walking with us through this really hard time. He wants us to cling to Him. Nothing is impossible for him. Not even our $30,000 loss in this housing fiasco. We trust that when He called us to Newcastle that He was not going to leave us. He never promised us that things werent going to be hard.. but He is all we need. Even though he is not healing me from a disease.. he is healing my heart from hurt, distrust and worry. What an encouragement.
