Just thought that I'd take a minute to "pop in." Life is crazy but God has so graciously blessed us. I am so amazed when I think of how He has done "exceedingly abundantly above all I can think or ask." For 2 years, we were living in poverty. I don't know how we made it. But God blessed me with a job in August, one that's no so bad (but I wouldn't mind having a little different job description.) Since August, we've been able to pay off 2 small credit cards & slightly larger debt. We've been able to pay for the "extras in life" i.e. fieldtrips, parties, etc that would have been such a sacrifice for us (but we did anyway.) When the kids need shoes, we've been able to purchase them. We've been able to buy Christmas presents for the kids w/o having to rely on other people.
Blessings started to flow in January. God had spoken to me about giving a certain amount of money in January above our tithes. We were so poor. I said "God, I don't know how we can do this." But when God speaks, you better answer. Dh & I made this commitment & we've kept it. As He has blessed us, our giving above & beyond has increased. Not showing off by any means. You ladies have listened & supported me when we had nothing. I just want to praise God for what He has done. But I know it has been because of our obedience.
I try to pop in every week day, but most of the time I don't have time to post. Thought that I would take a short break & tell you of the wonders of God.
DH and I are still climbing out of a very deep financial pit, but there's hope now, and we're doing 1,000 times better...sounds like we all have a lot to be thankful for this season .
