Scott's New Calling

Are you up for a long story? Well here it goes...not this past week-end but the one before, Scott decided we should go out and look at some houses (vacant ones). So we went on that Saturday and saw about five houses. Then we went back out on Sunday after church and looked at nine more. Two being the two we really liked the day before. One of them has been on my mind ever since. Like the furniture is all arranged and everything. Not like our house has come close to selling. But I have been feeling lately that maybe it would. It was fun...I love looking at houses. So we get home and there is a message on our machine. It's the Stake executive secretary, he wants to meet with Scott and me. So Scott calls back and they set up an interview for Thursday. That is like torture to make someone wait that long! We pretty much already knew what the calling would be. Scott was the 1st counselor in the Elders quorum already. So then we get all confused thinking he shouldn't get called to a calling like that if we have a for sale sign in our yard! We are trying to better live within our means and sell this house. So we wait four excrutiating days (for Scott, not so much me) for our interview. We go in and of course Scott is called to be the new Elders Quorum president. Scott was fully expecting the stake president to ask for a time commitment or to take our house off the market to serve, but he didn't. He just told us that if Scott would serve and we would continue to pay our tithing the Lord would provide. So now we just need to be faithful and put our trust in the Lord that everything will work out for the best.
