Hot, Hot, Hot

It seems as though the past little bit has been sweltering here! I don't remember our summers here being so hot...seriously. Other than the heat, and soaring electric bills, our summer has been good. God has shown up as only He could have and now comes the difficult part, trusting Him with the rest. He changed hearts and minds, allowed a huge calamity to be avoided, blessed us financially with the things we needed, and gave us a desire to renew ourselves in Him. Things still are not great, by any means, but not on the verge of destruction at the moment.

There are still some huge prayer needs:
1. Our current rental home. We are meeting with the owners soon to discuss future renting and we really need the rent to stay the same or lower for us to be able to afford it.
2. Med School. Applications/Fee's are being sent out and we are hopeful.
3. Family issues with both sides of our families. God is the only One who can resolve this, so we are leaving it in His hands as best as we can.
4. Future housing/job/income/etc. Everything for the future is still very up in the air and we are praying that God will provide and direct us as He see's fit.

Praises!!!!!
1. We rafted the Ocoee River and had a blast! (without falling out!) This was an amazing trip and a great memory we now have together. Swimming down the icy river after we braved te rapids where the 1996 Olympics were held!
2. Reliable vehicles without going into debt or having monthly payments. Praise Him for that!!!
3. Getting back in the Word on a daily basis together...this excited me, to grow with him in the Lord!

Well, that is all for now.
