Hello again!Psalm 111:7 (New International Version)
The works of his hands are faithful and just;
all his precepts are trustworthy.
Thank you for joining us on this journey! Yesterday we received word that the agency received our formal application, and is beginning to process it. We are very excited! We realize everything will go according to God's timing and plan, and we are grateful we are truly in His hands.
This weekend is Labor Day weekend. And we will be laboring! We are going to get the house, basement, and garage clean! I've already taken out all the dishes from the cupboards, and rearranged them. I've been sorting out dishes which we are not using, and do not need to keep. We need to sort out what's left in the basement and garage too. But this should not be that big of a task anymore. We had previously sorted through the garage and organized it into categories.
When we have everything cleaned out, we'll need to get the remainder of our furniture out of storage. The whole house is finally coming into order! It's not that it was really out of order to begin with, just that it was never completely unpacked. So it's good to finally get completely settled in.
I have the Christmas music playing while I'm cleaning. I know some people might think it's far too early in the year to be playing Christmas music. But I grew up listening to Christmas music in the summers. My mom used to play it, telling us it would help us stay cool. Christmas was her favorite time of the year. She passed on in 1992, and is truly missed.
Well, on to the cleaning!
Love,
Julie & Joerg
