Land Sale

Today I worked on a land sale in a small town on the border of Phoenix. It is an 11 acre mixed use site that sits in the midst of major development. The Seller is struggling with the loan and I am looking for an investor to pick it up and close quickly. Perhaps you know an investor who would like more information. It is dissapointing that the Seller, a church, got themselves in this situation. I know there is a bigger picture for all of us to learn. As I sat in a meeting with the leaders of the church my heart went out to them. I want so much to help them. I listed the property at $9.00 p/s/f and will sell it for much less.

Maybe one of the people I spoke to today will be the Buyer. Hope so!

Weary today

Today I am a little weary and tired. Drained might be a better word. I have been writing all day and that sure makes the eyes tired. I made a little french coffee earlier and that picked me up some but then like a dud dropped me off somewhere in the afternoon. Tonight we go to church but I think I would like to wait and go tomorrow. It seems so not right to go on Saturday night instead of Sunday but I gues that is relative to whether or not a person grew up going on Saturday or Sunday.

I am glad I go. Church has become a huge part of my life. I like the community it brings into my life. Webster Dict says community is a place where people can meet with common goals and ideas. I like that. This is what my church is for me. I say my church but I can find this community in almost any church I would attend. I just finished the book, Blue Like Jazz and I love the way he talks about community and its neccessity in each persons life. We were created for community.

So perhaps tonight or maybe tomorrow which ever it becomes I will go into my community and worship God with all my heart. Perhaps I will see you there?
