Here it is. Julie and I have bought a house in Portsmouth. The home inspector took this picture as we were doing the walk-through. We are thankful for the confirmation of the sovereignty of God once again in this matter. This is our first time buying, so naturally, we were nervous about the purchase. But the Lord has orchestrated every step and it has gone smoothly the whole way.
Our true desire in this purchase is to be good stewards of the time and resources God has given us. We would like to put some "sweat equity" into the place and sell it when God moves us following seminary. We trust Him to provide between now and then. God is so good. There is nothing greater or more satisfying than living every minute of your life as an active worshipper. May every step we take, whether it be involvement with a local church, going to seminary, or buying a house be done as we give control to Holy Spirit.

Your house looks beautiful! Congratulations on making the largest purchase of your life. We'll look forward to visiting you someday. Have fun fixing it up to your liking.
Rob,
It looks great! If you guys need help moving, call Russell. I hear he works for beer!
Seriously, we are happy for you and are praying God enables this home to be a tool, a $100,000 tool, for his glory.
may it be a $100,000 tool!!
Thanks for that info on Russell, I didn't know labor would come so cheaply. This house really will be a profit!! although that info sounds more bloganesque than anything else.
THAT IS A GORGEOUS HOME!! I am so happy for you both. God is good and always meets our needs and most times, our wants :) I'm glad to know your newest "additon"... :)
Excellent, love it!
