The Power of Prayer

I've talked about it many times on here before and I'm going to preach it again.

Today after I picked the boys up from school, we headed over to the bank to make a deposit and from there drove over to what will hopefully be the location of the fall 2008 consignment sale. While sitting in that parking lot, I asked the boys if they wanted to see where mommy was hoping the SPRING 2008 consignment sale was going to be held and they said sure. Homer (the Odyssey) drove us over to the former Sports World next to Aldi's in Hendersonville. As we pulled in, I asked the boys if they would like to pray with me over the space. They both laughed out loud and I said, "fine, mommy will pray anyway!" I proceeded to loudly ask God to continue to show me his will and that if this space was the place we were supposed to be, that he would make it known to us TODAY!

I just got the phone call that we got the space. As soon as I hung up with our leasing agent, I walked downstairs and told the boys, "you remember mommy praying over the consignment space today" in which they answered "yee yuuu" (yeah in their best country twang). Well guess what boys, he answered that prayer with a YES!

So it is official...ENCORES AND MORE NORTH will be in Hendersonville Plaza next to Aldi's Grocery Store! 10,000 sq. feet of heated and cooled, well lit space with TONS of parking! We will be updating the website tonight and hope to have fliers out by Monday! Can you tell I am excited!?!?!?!
