Not room enough to receive it...


We have been so truly blessed in the last week. Robert has been interviewing for an amazing job over the past two months. One of the hangups they were having is he could not work past 5:30 pm on Wednesday's, since he is serving as the YM President in our ward. They often have nights where they will be staying a little late and wanted him to commit without prior obligations. Thursday we got a call from the Stake President's office asking if we could come and meet with him. We went in and the called Robert to be the Elder's Quorum President. So he will no longer have nightly obligations during the week. Friday he received a call from the company that he got the job!! He is super excited and can't wait to start next Monday. So within a 24 hr period he had a new calling and a new job. What a day! And on top of it all our house is supposed to close this week. We did the final walk through last Wednesday. All of this puts us one step closer to achieving our dream of welcoming children into our home. We are so grateful and know our Heavenly Father has truly poured his blessing upon us. We literally feel like it says in 3 Nephi:

"Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in my house; and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of Hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing that there shall not be room enough to receive it." 3 Nephi 24:10

Chantelle and Robert I am so very happy for both of you. You have both been so patient and so trusting in our Father in Heavens timing which we all know can be hard at times. Congratulations again and again you deserve it! Love, Mom

Andy, Beth and Jennah, too! said...

Timing is everything... Whenever I start stressing about how things will work out (the "what if" game)... Andy always says... don't worry it ALWAYS works out... and it does! It's great to look back see how our lives are guided in the right directions... by a loving Heavenly Father, who knows what we need and when!! Can't wait to see what the future brings for you!!!
