Dinner #11

Ok so I have to admit something came in the mail that required me to go pick up at the post office. I was sick to my stomach for what it was and my husband prayed with me to stay strong, focused and still. I was still thinking the old way and the Lord told me to trust Him for all will work together for good. To not rely or trust in man but Him and Him alone. Okay Lord, I will. So my husband told me he would go pick up whatever it was for me so I ran into my bedroom with my kitties and did my devotions and just stayed in the spirit and asked God to give me peace and protection. For the way I left my employer, there was not full closure and I simply wanted to move on. I was already so far removed and beyond the place that held me for half my life. Only God can do that. But this "card" brought me back to the secular world and its flesh and I was sickkkkkk to my stomach. So my husband comes back with the envelope and I open it to find a check for a substantial amount of money. No letter, no explanation, just a check. I rejoice in the Lord and thank Him for His faithfulness and I am forever now sure this is all the work of the Lord. And I vow never to stumble or question again. How great it is that for all my life I had to lead, make decisions and take control and now I have someone ready, willing and able to do it for me. Thank you Lord for taking over the reins. You are awesome and I thank you for bringing this blessing to our household. What a miracle and what a sense of peace it has brought me. I sleep at the pool on a lounge chair for the first time in years. I am peaceful and still for the first time . When I stop to ponder it all, I am simply overjoyed with gratitude to my friend and Father.

I need to point out that because we truly do not know the future of our finances I shop for the rest of the challenge so the kitchen will be stocked with milk, vegetables, fruits. There will be no more visits to the supermarket for 21 days. Cost: $75
