When God Doesn't Answer

So we opened escrow on a condo in Tustin on Thursday. The night before I was praying about it, for God to show His will on this; whether we are to buy or not. But He didn't give me an answer. Not that He has to answer to me. It is just that over the last few years I have felt pretty in touch when it comes to things like this. Whether the answer is what I want or not I get an answer. It could be something like what Elijah went through where he thought he had it all from God. However, I started to think about maybe if not getting an answer was God's answer. What could He mean by that. Maybe it is that to God whether we buy a condo or not does not change His will for us. Not that buying doesn't matter to Him, but in a way it doesn't. God's will for us (Alise and I) before He sends us to become missionaries is mostly about prep for going. That being said, my priority needs to be going to school. As long as buying doesn't change my schooling or my focus on being a missionary or my desire to focus on Him, then we can buy the house (if we qualify) if we want to. It doesn't matter either decision we make.
