Morning everyone! We have been a little anxious and full of a myriad of emotions since we accepted an offer on our house to sell. Yesterday the act was finalized as the buyer signed the paperwork.My wife and I have been driving around looking for places to live and being resigned to the fact that we may have to go back into an apartment for awhile till we see how we come out of this deal (How can I play my drums ,neighbors all around,whine,whine!!.Houses to rent are more than my mortgage payment.Anyway,believe me its all good and I am greatful that we can bail out after so many years,free ourselves of debt and move forward.So today,in my daily office of prayer ,I open my spiritual readings and here is the message"Be anxious for nothing,but in everything by prayer and supplication,with thanksgiving,let your requests be made known to God,and the peace that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds through God"  Another coincidence....not!!!"it rains" a lot, thats life, but my Hp always has an umbrella to get me thru the storms....Living free and clean and serene has been such a blessing and the process of our program Narcotics Anonymous has taught me to rely on spiritual principles in all my affairs even when Im whining,I remember to "stop" be greatful for God allowing me to even be here on this planet at this time in my life. I just wanted to share my joy and happiness with everyone.One of my friends in the program always says"Do not let anyone steal your joy!Not that profound but sure has big meaning.Have a blessed and productive day!smile

Thanks for the message of assurance Mike.
I can't help but think that you will come through this OK.
Your faith is strong and your head is screwed on pretty straight too.
It's just another bump in the road.

Thank you Mike for sharing that. Just the thing I needed to pass on to my brother. He's been living in Lansing, Michigan since 1997 when he moved there from India. He lives with his wife and 2 kids. Recently, he's been going through an economic crisis, having to sell off his house and move into an apartment, debts etc.

I heard that he is depressed due to all this due to the financial meltdown that happened worldwide recently...

Sharing this with him, I'm sure will do him a lot of good. I hope you don't mind.

Thanks once gain, big Hugs!
