I hope you dont mind me sharing this story here as it has brought me hope in knowing that as scary as it was when my husband left me I know that God is in control and I can always rely on him.
The city I live in at the moment is experiencing a rental shortage. Which means that every time I went to go for a rental property to live in there were at lest 20-30 other people there appling for the one house. I started this journey in November when My husband first said he wanted out of the marriage. Of course he wanted out but did not want to give up the home and of course wanted to keep carrying on with the girlfriend. I was caught as It was killing me inside to live with this man who after 9yrs did not love me and wanted this other woman who he met online and was being very cruel about it all. I decided to take the kids and rent. I applied for so many houses that wernt nescarly what I wanted or met my needs but as I was desperated i applied after two mths of being knocked back God gave me the courage to stand up to hubby and have him kicked out. he left but always on the understanding that when I found a rental I would then move and he come back. Now our house is for sale and all this time on I still hadnt found a place. All this time I felt God saying that it was not the right time and to stay put. But I kept looking as I was worried that my house would sell and I would have no where. dishearten at the amount of others looking I gave up on the suburb I wanted (as it was close to daughters school). and started looking further out still with no luck. My friend who was moving in with me and I discussed the situation. I said I wasn't going to stress it anymore and leave it to God. We both agreed that when we found the right place that it would have everything we wanted and needed because God new our needs and we would be the only applicants. Well this week I felt God saying the time was right. I looked online at the rental sight and saw this house just listed in the suburb I wanted, a 5min walk from my daughters school. I did not dare get my hopes up as It was a popular suburb. I went to view the house and there were only 3 others there. This threw me as its unheard of in this area even the agent was surprised. This house was perfect, it did not just met our needs but our wants as well. I decided to put an application in. Still not trying to get my hopes up because they usaly leave it a couple of days to get as many applicants as they can and start a bidding war on it, and I could not afford to go any higher in rent. I went off to my councilors appointment and we were talking about it. She prayed "Lord I pray She gets this house". I said no "pray that Gods will be done here. because he knows the best time for me to move as with this house selling and my ex moving back in concerned me. I love the house but I need it to be in Gods control" so we prayed "Gods will be done". 5 mins later my mobile rings. My application was successful. God must of given me favour with the agent because instead of waiting for more applicantions he decided to fast track mine. Mine was the only applicantion and we move in Next week. I am over the moon at the moment. The house is everything I dare dream for. And the property agents name is Guardian Angles properties how funny is that.
Its left me with peace knowing that as scary and new life is at the moment for me and my kids I can find peace in the fact that God knows my needs, my hopes and my dreams and he will never let me down.
