A place to call home* - Joey Tempest

Finally! We got the keys last weekend. It seemed a little surreal, to be honest.

Our house-hunting has taken us on a roller-caoster of a ride - and it was one long one. It came to a point when we did not dare to keep our hopes up as it has been crushed so cruelly so many times. Maybe that's the reason why getting the keys seem surreal - perhaps i still dun dare to rejoice...

But thankful, we truly are. Expecially to God who has led us thru so much. We wanted to buy a house but we ended up with more than a house. We ended up with a house as well as having our faith in him strenghtened. We experienced also the support and love of frens and family - and of each other. We learned that God is truly in control. We learned to let go of hurts and forgive those who wronged us.

Now we look forward to a new chapter of our life together - it is exciting as we know that God has planned out everything for us and his plan is the best!

We forgot to take a photo of the house on the fateful day!!!! But here are some pics of the interior that we took before.


It may not look much but we are looking beyond the dust and dirt and stains - and we could see a place that we can call our home. =)
