Last Sunday was our first "hard" day. After being here for 9 days, we were all anxious and ready to move into our rented and hopefully "furnished" house. I say hopefully because after looking at some other supposedly furnished houses, I'm learning what the Dominican definition is. So, when our contact called and said the house would not be vacant and available until NEXT weekend, there was a bit of disappointment in the air.
Hmm...what to do, what to do.
Call the owner of that other house we almost took! The second choice! What? Can't reach him until later this afternoon? That's ok. We'll wait. Surely that one will be available.
What? Not available. Hmm...what to do, what to do.
Let's look at some other options. We look around a bit. Get a break on the Villa we're already staying in. Decide to wait. It's a good house, good neighborhood, good distance, good price. We'll wait.
Hebrews 6:18-20
we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us. We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain, where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek..
