Hebrews 13:5
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."
Oh how true it is.Its been a crazy ride these past few months. And crazy hard for me not working, but for those of you who have supported me through it all, thank you. I am so thankful for having friends who are supportive. Some days I feel like crying, throwing a fit, and stomping my feet until someone comes to dig us out of this hole. Other days, I feel quite optimistic, knowing this is just temporary and God is in control, and he already knows the future.
God knew I was going to sell my camera, and not get this wedding I had my heart set on. He knew how devastating the email would be. And thankfully, I had things to do that day, so I couldn't sit home and dwell on it. I know things will work out and I'll get a new camera, just not as soon as I had hoped.
God knew where we would be financially right now. Me being out of work for the last 14+ weeks is wearing us down Financially. Thankfully we had the good sense to take Financial Peace University earlier last year, so we had our emergency fund in place before this happened. I will hopefully get a disability check soon. But when? Well, God knows that too.
God knew that I would need the kind of friendships I have now. I have incredible friends. I have friends who I thought were incredible who have disappeared over the last 13 weeks. But I am even more thankful for the friends that I do have because of all of those things.
So, here I go. The beginning of 2010, learning to be content with what I do have, because I am very richly blessed
