Yesterday I spent some time on the phone with a roofing contractor in Nashville. It seems the hail and windstorms that have come through Middle Tennesse over the past couple of months have caused quite a bit of damage to roofs all over the area and the same kind of work I’m doing right here in Houston is being done also there in Tennessee.
In the next couple of weeks, I’ll be going home to “test the waters” in the surrounding Nashville area to see if I can do this work there. If so…there’s no question, I’ll be home by sometime in September. If God leads, I would be able to work out of the house for all my paperwork, and drive all around Nashville looking for roofs and homeowners to help.
The vision for ministry and paying off our debts is still out in front. But the way in which all that happens has great potential to change in the upcoming weeks. For that I am remaining optimistic and hopeful. What a blessing it would be to be able to do what I am doing here, right in my own backyard! We will be watchful and prayerful. I need discernment, wisdom, and patience. And I can’t relax from the work I’m doing here yet either.
Plans may change..the vision never does.
