Looking for an apartment

I have a list of desires for our first apartment in Vienna.  I pray over it quite regularly.  I think about it a lot.  When we were in Vienna back in November, I found an apartment that seemed to fit almost every desire on my list.  I remember saying to Gregory, "This place is such an amazing fit for us!  I know I have to just give it to God and trust He has something for us."  And I did.  I mean, what are the chances that a place that was available in November would still be available in July or August of the next year?!

I randomly did a quick apartment search two days ago.  My dream apartment was still listed!  I couldn't believe it.  So this time, I did a little more digging, found the real estate site that's listing the rental, looked into the neighborhood, measured distances to our church and grocery store and library, thought about how furniture would fit, etc.  And I love it even more.  And here I am again, back at that place where I say to Gregory once again, "This place is such an amazing fit for us!  I have to just give it to God and trust He has something for us, whether or not this is it."  Our God is so good.  I am excited to see how He leads us in the next few months, and what He determines to be the right fit for us.

I am so ready for our "home" to be back in Vienna.
