Well I just got my first listing tonight. I'm so excited to help this family sell this home. It's been an investment property for them and they are ready to move on. I hope I can facilitate that soon for them!
I did not give up doing real estate last fall very happily. I was upset, felt like a failure, and held a grudge towards the work of the business my husband and I owned because he needed me to work it with him at the time. Sometimes you hit on a hard time and we had to sit down and look at where we were and what we needed to get where we NEEDED to be because where we were, wasn't working. (say that 3 times fast!). I laid down that desire to do the real estate thinking this wasn't the time in my life. We knew I would have to reactivate and get the rest of my continuing education credits to keep my license valid, but I didn't think I'd actually get to reactivate and use it. I guess I can't really put words in God's mouth, but I felt like he was saying ok, you laid it down for the time I asked of you, you can have it back now. Maybe I'm trying to put a spiritual spin on something that isn't...but I have felt so free and at peace pursuing the options I have in realty right now.
God really is awesome. He loves us so much and really wants to give us the desires of our hearts. He created us, He knows our desires and wants and like an earthly parent, wants to give them to us. But He also knows the future and sometimes, the things we want aren't good for us-and we can't always see or understand it.
My heart's desire is to be the woman He created me to be. I hope to take every new experience and learn from it.
