Downsizing...

Downsizing sounds so good, so right, so wonderful...

Until you go house hunting!

Then it is just downright confusing!

Should we cram our kids into a smaller space... really?

How much money do we need to shave off our house payment to make this move worthwhile?  (Because that big house with the great sunroom would cut our payment a little, but just a tiny bit.  Not really much of a downsize - but it sure is pretty.)

Is all the clean-up, fix-up on our current home really worth it?

Maybe we should just forget it all.  That would just be so much easier.

Yet I know we are not called to easy.  We are called to lay our treasures at His feet. 

So we continue to touch-up paint, clean, and fix all the little stuff - because it is all His.  We will lay it at His feet.  We will wait on Him for what is to come.

Stay?  Go?  Only He knows.
