House Fund: First Anniversary

The journey officially started this day last year.

Looking back on that entry, I can't help but linger over the part that reads:
But we hope our friends and family will be rooting for us and helping keep us accountable to dreaming big. We can't do this on our own, and to that same degree, are hoping to rely fully on the wisdom and provisions of God who has been so gracious to lead us this far.
And you have. And we have. And more than both of those combined, He has.

I am so very thankful for that and excited about what lies ahead. We are more than halfway to our year-end goal and hope to remain faithful in giving and free to enjoy what a little extra savings beyond the house affords us in the way of trips to visit family and the requisite get-aways we so enjoy.

Let us always be mindful of how much we are blessed, in whatever way God chooses to do so, and of what, then, is required of us because of that.
