Do right, then trust

When my family and I moved to Massachusetts several years ago, a man whom we’d previously met asked us if we would like to rent his house. It was a lovely home in a beautifully wooded area, and our relationship with our landlord was very amicable. We’d been living there some time when he announced that he was engaged and had decided to sell that property. Feeling it was not the right decision for us to purchase this home, we began searching for other rentals in the area.

At the time, available rentals seemed to be very scarce. Our search lasted weeks, then months. Throughout our search, we kept in touch with the landlord and kept him abreast of our work in looking for another place. After a while, we received a registered letter that informed us that we needed to vacate the property by a certain date. The difficulty of the process and the approaching deadline resulted in a lot of fear and “knots” in our stomachs. 

We had learned that God cares for us in every way and that we could trust Him unconditionally.
