I don't know. I am not sure why this happened the way it did. Is it God or deceiving spirits or just coincidence? It just seems to incredible to be coincidence.

eileen,
above all else, remember that God the Father of Jesus Christ is Sovereign and has Absolute power and control over all of His Territory. with Him there is no such thing as coincidence because if there were, it would mean something happened that He was not aware was going to happen. and i know that you know this is not true. for a surety eileen, this is ALL of God no matter what the outcome. we, and many others, have been praying for you and your family, and your situation. He hears our petitions. i got so excited reading your post. please, please keep us posted.
love in Christ,
claudia

Well, I have yet to hear a discouraging word neither here or from any family members. Even my son TJ who would not be coming with me was encouraging and when I asked him what would he do he said "I'll figure something out". If I could work at the branch near this house, it's actually closer than to where I work now.
My husband's sister said "I know it's impulsive but I want to encourage you and it's so serendipity"
The only one against it is Jeannine who simply does not want to leave her dad's home. I understand that and so would Mark. He had such a hard time moving to this house from our old house. He wrote me a 4 page love letter pertaining to our old house. I know where she get's her sentimentality.
I really would like to do this. I pray this is where God has led me as it appears ideal in so many ways.
Thanks for your valued input.

Hi Eileen. I know everyone has experienced an opportunity come knocking and I do think all this is of God. Like Dave said basically it will boil down to what you want. And the indecision, the back and forth, will show you how much you really want this.
As we get older most of us have to downsize and we have to look out for ourselves, children will take up their own lives eventually and we have to remember that.
I wish you well for the future.
love, Judy

Something similar happened to me Eileen. We had lost our home (won’t go into details) and I was wrought silly trying to find another place to stay. My emotions were shot and I had fallen down the stairs, in the rain, of the last house we’d last seen. I cried to God (I cried to Him telling Him I knew not to ask about “things” as the Pagans do but BUT We needed a HOUSE!) God shot back a thought, “over the road with water frontage” I was so limp and drained I could not respond. On the way to see yet another house, my husband said his Father told him of a property that was for sale “over the road with river frontage.” I was so excited. We cancelled our appointment and turned around. We have been living in the house that was “over the road with river frontage” now, for over a year!
What I wanted to share with you, is that God made us pay everything we had to show that we wanted what we knew God had appointed to us. God tested us MANY TIMES, to purge out any doubts. He sent buyers who offered more than we could pay. He made the partner of the Agent through who we purchased the house, try to persuade her to get more commission on the bigger offers she had received, that included a Church that bought next door from us and has put up a HUGE building (church). They had the money means and intentions and desires YET God had other Plans!
God put us through a grueling time, before He released to us our new boundaries. I know you have not had a easy time that may also have been the necessary preparations to spring you into action to go get what God has for you? I don’t know. I do know and believe God can turn us around.
God can give you a place to live and whether or not you believe your Aunt’s house is the one that is good and well for you, God knows what’s best. The first house I prayed to God to give us, was trashed by vandals the same week our offer was refused by the Agent. If that wasn’t a sign God said NO, then…..I don’t know what is! :o
I am so happy God has shown you what He can do and arrange for you! God can do anything.
Through our Brother Paul 8)
Act 17:24 GOD who made the universe and everything in it--He, being Lord of Heaven and earth, does not dwell in sanctuaries built by men.
Act 17:25 Nor is He ministered to by human hands, as though He needed anything--but He Himself gives to all men life and breath and all things.
Act 17:26 He caused to spring from one forefather people of every race, for them to live on the whole surface of the earth, and marked out for them an appointed span of life and the BOUNDARIES OF THEIR HOMES:

I agree with this saying that somebody else said: 'peace and solitude i long for
is not going to be found 'out there somewhere', but within, with God, and i
try to be content with whatever my physical surroundings are...'
At list God knows I try it.
However once you are already content in within, You can go anywhere and you will be okay.
Personally I am getting tired of cities.
We always do what we prefer and we can't always get what we want.I a firm believer of destiny, predestination, no chances out of nothing... I am a walking miracle! (just as we all in here are)
Regarding places, I know that feeling of missing much, sometimes not much because the place it self but the good memories there. One thing that used to help me on the process of changing is having pictures just to remember and even share somebody else about that precious place.
well. I have to go now
