Today is a particularly rollercoaster-y day and this past
week has been action packed. I spoke in my video about how there has been
miracle after miracle in my last real estate transaction. But when push came to
shove and the final documents needed to get signed, panic ensued. Both the
escrow agent and the listing agent became frantic in wanting to ensure
everything was done.
And that’s natural. But what puzzled me abbot this is that
the listing agent and I knew in our hearts that this transaction even going as
far as it did was a miracle and that it would close. We knew in our hearts and
so as complicated as the transaction was, with as many moving parts as were
involved we didn’t lose faith.
But yesterday she lost faith and today I lost faith. I
notice when someone in the transaction loses faith then the others have to
carry the positivity or belief in the transaction closing, the loan funding,
the money literally appearing electronically in the buyer’s escrow account.
Miraculously.
I felt that this whole transaction was a deep lesson about
faith. When do we have it, when do we keep it, how do we lose it? It’s easy to
keep faith when, despite difficulties, everything appears to be going your way
but what happens when things start to seem to fall apart?
I lost faith and that was the whole test. There were 88
individual miracles in this one transaction and this family’s faith and good humor
in going through each seemingly impossible obstacle was amazing and I felt
completely blessed to be a part of this. I felt privileged to be doing the work
I do.
I lost faith, my clients lost faith and for a minute
everything looked bleak. Then I remembered how God carried us all through every
obstacle in this transaction. And I decided to believe that there would be another
miracle and the necessary funding condition would appear. And once I decided it would, it did.
I decide to live a miraculous life and I decide to be
fulfilled. I decide to have faith that everything I need will show up for me
and that all the moving parts needed to arrange themselves for me will. And they will.
This decision changed, is changing and will change my life.
