As many of you know I will have to be moving out of this little house trailer in within the next three months. I have know this was going to happen for over a year.This trailer is unfit to live in, the roof leaks there are holes inthe ceiling, but it has been a cozy home for me and my two wonderful dogs for 1 1/2 years. This is what I am asking the LOrd for.
A small 2 bedroom home either a house , duplex or mobile home, where my two over 50 pound dogs are welcome, with a fenced yard, within my budget. I know by faith that God has a place he has chosen just for me and that fits my every need, I need direction and guidance to find this place that he has set aside for me at no more than $500.00 per month.
MOst places here are more than my budget will allow me to spend, HUD (subsidized) housing does not allow dogs. MOst places do not allow dog. MY dogs have been with me since birth, Happy is almost 7 and Bebe will be 4 in a few weeks..
Thank you I do covet your prayers. Working 7 days a week doesn't give me much time to go house hunting.
God knows where you need to be. Trust in the Lord and He will guide your ways.
I will be praying for you also, Marilyn. There is no telling what God will provide for you! But you can bet he will :)
Marilyn: I am praying for you - for a good home! Carol
Thanks for sharing with us, Marilyn. I'll be praying for you that the Lord's choice of a new home will be made perfectly clear to you in the very, very near future. This is just such a difficult time for you.
God richly bless you my sis!

MARILYN ~ When Bryan got out of the Army and began working toward establishing his new life as a civilian, one of his first priorties was a place to live. He looked online for apartments or rooms to rent but there was nothing that he could afford. Finally, he put his own ad online. He stated his needs and that he didn't have a job (yet) or a lot of money. He felt that renting a room would be the best because he wouldn't have the expense of utilities, phone, furniture, etc.... or whatever it is that is involved in renting on your own.
That ad was answered and he is in a home with just another couple and very close to where he can find employment, etc.
I tell you this because it may be a way for you to find "just the right place" that meets your criteria. You might give it a thought.
I am definitely praying for your peace of mind and comfort in the knowledge that our Father already has that home set aside for you and your dogs. He will lead you to it. I know!
Marilyn be prepared for changes in your life, God moves us on.
We have to be open to His will.
Lord God, lead this dear woman on, and into a new place on the pilgrim path. amen.
Marilyn, I will also be praying that you find that special home that God has picked out for you.
Marilyn, have faith. I too am praying for you.
Oh Father, I pray You'll move as only You can to provide living arrangements for Marilyn. Help her to look in just the right direction to see Your leading. And I pray You'll also move in her to make her willing to do Your will, no matter what it is. Oh do these things, Father, within the timing You know there is for her - through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen! (to Al's prayer)
Marilyn: Any news regarding a home or place of residence for you?
I've been wondering the same thing, Marilyn. How are you doing? I know the time is nearing when you will need an answer and a place to live.
Nothing yet. I got a rental list that I had to pay $35. for I get a new list every weeek day. About 200 listings on there but I haven't seen one yet that Is either where i want to be or in my price range. Some are too far away for McKinleyville because I ahve to be close enough to get to fay with in a short time if there is an emergency. God is in Control!!
I seldom post here, but want you to know that you are in my prayers Marilyn.
Jesus' Greetings, Marilyn.... I'm a newbie here, but I wanted to give you some encouragement. For many years my income has been well below poverty level, but The Lord has always abundantly provided more than I could imagine or deserve. I am a "day mom" and because I'm considered "self-employed" the s.s. taxes are very high.... No problem for our Father, and He's no Respecter of persons. God can make a way, when there seems to be no way. Tender Blessings, rosebud \ :)/ Praise Him p.s. I've heard other people say it never comes out on paper, but then, doesn't that give Father more glory?
That was such an encouraging post, Rosebud. I hope Marilyn comes in and sees it.

Thank you Very much Rosebud for your encouraging post.
Well the time is drawing near that I must get moving and I still haven't found a place. Please continue to pray for me to find a home very soon. I really appreciate the prayers of those who are praying that the Lord well reveal the place he has for me. Thank you
Marilyn: I have this on my prayer list....and prayed just a little while ago!
How much longer before you MUST move Marilyn? I'm sure you have said, but I have forgotten.
Three weeks
I am praying that something acceptable and adequate comes to you very soon!
Whoooooopeeeeeeeee: I'm dancing in the for the Lord. My landlord came to me to let me know what was going on around here in the near future. However amidst all the construction to start in April sits a small trailer with a lady and 2 dogs living on the property until about July/August. Then when I told him I was 50 short on the rent and could I write him a check for $450. now he said "oh no Marilyn, just wait until you have it all and give it to me then." He is going away for a few days and wanted to let me know all this before he left.
Hallelujah
Just wanted to give you the Good News.
Marilyn
Oh, what timing! I understand how thankful you are! Still praying, my sister.
What a relief to know that you still have time to find the right home.
I think the saying is PTL! Father, we thank You for Your mercy and grace to Marilyn! Now, seeing how much You care about this, we're encouraged to pray that You'll reveal to her just where You want her to go and what You want her to do next.
Oh, Marilyn, this is wonderful. God knew your place wasn't ready for you yet, so He changed the timeline. :) Tiime for rejoicing!!
Thank you, Father, for taking such good care of your children.
Oh, Marilyn, I'm crying with joy here for you. Glad to read this news dear sister.
Marilyn, that is indeed wonderful news. He obviously has come to know you and know that he can trust you to pay him as soon as you can. Maybe this will give you time to recover from having to buy a car so suddenly. God is so good.
Marilyn: I am rejoicing with you! Isn't that kind of your landlord? Perhaps you will find a suitable place this week. I am praying to this end!
I will find a place in God's perfect timing. My place that He has for me nmust not be ready yet. God is the one who sent my landlord to me to to give me another 6 months to find a place. Thank you everyone for your prayers. and Most of all thanks to you Jane who prayed on the phone with me the same day the landlord came to see me.God answered her prayer within a few hours.
Yes, God is sooooo GOOD ... ALL the time! Remember? I prayed to bind his mind to the mind of Christ and that even he would be surprised at what came out of his mouth. Bet he really was surprised, what do you think? :D
Yep I think he was.
What could be more wonderful, than to have a friend pray with you over the phone, or in person!
My landlord has given me until the middle of September to find a place ,however, I am now asking you to pray that God will show me that he has heard my prayers by leading me to the place he has for me before the end of July, as the first of August the college students will be returning to the area and taking up all the housing. I really would like to be out of here as soon as possible.
I reallly neeed His direction in this effort.
Marilyn, I am still praying too.
I know Jesus has something very special for you, you are a very special person :)
Any news on a new place to live yet, Marilyn?
No news yet.
Marilyn, I'm still praying.
Ruth Ann
Oh Father, please let Marilyn know with assurance whether the place she is going to look at is the right one.
Lord, You know my heart on this matter, please grant me discernment as I go to look at this place today. If this is NOT the place you ave for me let me know. If It is the place, I pray that everything will move along smoothly. In Jesus Name. Amen.
