We currently own property that is fraught with problems. We want to move but don't know where to go or how to make that happen. How would you pray about such a situation?

The 23rd Psalm is a wonderful piece of work to think about in relation to home. All the lines in that Psalm are so healing. It presents the idea of the shepherd guiding, guarding, and directing all along the way. The psalm's last line says surely, absolutely, without a doubt, that goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of that consciousness of love forever. So pray with that psalm and all the beautiful promises in it. That will give you a sense of peace, knowing that God is loving you. The love of the Shepherd is with you, guiding you and providing for you everything needed for your well-being for eternity.
