Rejected!

I don't take rejection well; I don't think anyone does! I'd much rather be accepted, feels better that way! Luckily in my life, I have not faced much rejection. I have been very blessed and I know it!! With the exception of several break-ups with boyfriends, rejection has not been a common thing for me. I know it sounds aloof and snobbish to say, but it's true! I made all the sports team I tried out for in school, got all the jobs I interviewed for, never experienced the heartache at not being able to get pregnant or more horrifically, lose a baby. We have just been really blessed!!

Well, our streak ended yesterday! We were denied for a re-finance loan through our current lender! Rejected! Told we weren't good enough to qualify! I was angry and upset. How could they turn us down?! Well, they can and they did! See, it turns out that me staying home in the fall and being reduced to one salary, has made us undesirable for a loan! How awful is that!?! Of course, they're just an institution and they only see the numbers, and apparently we're a risk at this point! Sad, awful, hurtful!

Well, at this point, we can just keep our current mortgage, but with rates much lower than what we are paying, we'd like to re-finance. We could have saved at least $200 a month! Please pray that we can see the light through the clouds, that we can find another door to open, since this one closed! Please pray for wisdom for us!! We could use some! :)
