Hi All:wave
I just wanted to share the blessing that I received through answered prayer and hard work.
I found out last week, Friday, that we would not receive a stimulus check until next month because we were not on the direct deposit list due to the fact that I split my refund between two accounts:hehee (one since being closed because it was too long overdrawn:doh)
When I learned this news I litterly cried...but only for a short while. I felt the Spirit promt me to get to work. Well work I did! I went to work getting the garage ready for a garage sale that next day (Saturday). I worked all day into the night, by the Grace of God, boy was I sore and tired, I didn't go to bed until 2am. The next day I had the garage sale and was blessed by the Lord.:faint
The bills that I needed to pay were taken care of, I was able to buy much needed groceries, and I was able to get a needed text book for school (I'm a f/t graduate student) with the help of a neighbor:thumb
Nevertheless, bills, bills, and more bills, by Wednesday I was concerned again, but not too much as I am continuing to trust in the Lord. I know that He is with us all. But, being a mom & grad student, with A LOT of things to pay for:panic I have been praying for finacial blessing that I do not have to pay back to anyone...I do not like having to borrow money:twitch
I went to the mail box today and out of the "blue" (read DMIL heart prompted by the Lord), my mother-in-law sent us a nice check:yeah:
The note attached: This is a gift for you and the boys:hug
The Lord has provided, as He says that He will:yeah
