PRAYER REQUEST!!!!! PLEASE!

OK, EVERYONE, I HAVE A SUPER IMPORTANT PRAYER REQUEST FOR YOU ALL. AS YOU ALL KNOW, EVER SINCE WE MOVED HERE, WHICH WAS A MUST AT THE TIME, WE HAVE BEEN LIVING IN A REALLY TIGHT SPACE, WITH 6 OF US CROWDED INTO A VERY SMALL HALF DUPLEX. IT HAS BEEN EVEN MORE SO SINCE I WAS MARRIED IN NOVEMBER, AND WITH ALL OF THE EXTRA THINGS MOVED, WE BARELY HAVE ROOM TO BREATHE, ALMOST LITERALLY! BEING CLOSE TO THE CHURCH WAS A COMPLETELY IDEAL SITUATION FOR US SINCE MY MOTHER TEACHES THERE, AND BOTH OF OUR KIDS ATTEND THE SCHOOL. I CURRENTLY HAVE TO DRIVE LOGAN TO SCHOOL MYSELF AND IT IS NOT A GOOD SITUATION AS ONE OF MY DAYHOME PARENTS DOES NOT WANT ME DOING THIS, AND I CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE THAT CHILD, SO IT IS CAUSING A PROBLEM. THERE IS CURRENTLY A HOUSE DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE CHURCH, A WHITE HOUSE, WITH A FOR SALE SIGN ON THE GRASS AND A FOR RENT SIGN ON THE FENCE THAT WE HAVE CALLED ABOUT, AND AFTER SPEAKING TO THE OWNER, WERE PLEASED TO FIND OUT IT WOULD BE AMAZING FOR ALL OF US. TWO SEPARATE AND COMPLETE SUITES, 3 BEDROOMS UP, 2 DOWN, SEPARATE ENTRANCE FOR THE BACK, FENCED IN BACKYARD, AND BEST OF ALL, 30 SECONDS FROM THE CHURCH! uNFORTUNATELY, THE OWNER IS ASKING WAAAAAAAAAY TOO MUCH MONEY FOR THIS PLACE AND WHEN I SAY WAAAAAAAAY, I MEAN HE IS ASKING ALMOST $3000 TO RENT THE ENTIRE PLACE, SOMETHING I CHOKED ON WHEN HE TOLD ME. CRAZY...SO I AM ASKING FOR YOUR PRAYERS ON THIS MATTER, THAT FIRST IF GOD WANTS US TO HAVE THIS PARTICULAR PLACE, THAT THE OWNER WILL DROP THE RENT BY QUITE A BIT, OR DROP IT STILL BUT INCLUDE UTILITIES IN THE RENT. I AM CONFIDENT AFTER THESE MANY MONTHSOF PRAYING FOR THE RIGHT PLACE THAT GOD KNOWS WHAT WE CAN DO, SO I AM JUST GOING TO LEAVE IT IN HIS HANDS. WE DO HAVE TO MOVE THOUGH, SOONER RATHER THAN LATER, BUT TO THE RIGHT PLACE WHERE WE CAN STAY UNTIL WE CAN BUY A HOUSE, HOPEFULLY IN A COUPLE YEARS. PLEASE PRAY FOR US, AND WE WILL WAIT AND SEE WHAT GOD WILL DO!
