Assertive by Joyce Schafer

We had found the perfect retirement home in the country. Our dream was about to come true – a cabin for me and a 2 car garage/workshop for my husband. Then the floods came and our place-to-be became a victim. God was being very assertive in telling us – this was not the place for us.

One of my favorite verses has always been Proverbs 13:12: “Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when dreams come true at last, there is life and joy.” I take comfort in this verse. I know that God will take care of us and has an even better dream for us. All we have to do is be patient and wait.
