Prayer Request

I love to hear that people are actually following my blog! So I'm going to take this opportunity to ask you to pray along side of us for somethings we are facing in the future.

The first is our well situation. Our well has been working on borrowed time for several years now. I feel blessed that it has held out this long! We started losing water pressure about two weeks ago so I borrowed a compressor thinking it was just that we lost air in the bladder on the well. I unfortunately was wrong. We have the lowest amount of water we've ever had in the well. Thankfully, we will be getting our tax information in a few weeks and we will be able to use our refund to go ahead and tap into city water. Please pray with us that our well will hold out just a few more weeks! Until then we're using a lot less water and trying to conserve every day. God is faithful and no matter what happens I know we are in good hands!

Secondly, Matt and I are praying about him applying for a new store that is opening in Asheville. Matt worked the Arden branch for several years before we were married so he knows this territory very well. We would have to commit to at least a year to two years at this branch before he would move on to the next level. While we have thought God would open a door for Matt to move up while in Marion, we really feel like this could be a great step for our family. He has the potential to make a little more money, and Asheville is still on it's way up as far as industry goes. Anyone who knows Marion, knows that the industry here is at a standstill. Several businesses Matt was servicing have closed their doors in the past few months and there really is no way for Matt to land too many new accounts. We would also be closer to Matt's mom which would be a plus as far as help for me is concerned with the kiddos. Matt would have to work longer and more hours to get the branch up and running and the kids adore their Granny and uncles and aunts. Pray alongside us that if it is God's will, that Matt will be able to take this position. If it's not, pray for direction for us this next year. Matt will probably go on to district manager training this year if he does not take the Asheville store.

Thanks for praying with us. It is the most important thing anyone can do for us!
