This has been an exhausting month.
After moving across country, Iv'e become a renter after nearly two decades of home ownership in a hot market wildly skewed toward landlords (many tenants are the foreclosed, driving up demand for nice homes in great neighborhoods).
I just signed a lease on a wonderful place (though I paid more than the asking price) and I am finalizing the details for the big move.
Throughout this process, when my faith faltered, I tried to think about door closing and windows opening.
Parker J. Palmer writes in the book Let Your Life Speak: Listening for the Voice of Vocation, that we must "take the no of the way that closes and find the guidance it has to offer, and take the yes of the way that opens and respond with the yes of our lives."
