Today is the 91st day. I cannot believe I have stuck with this, I know it must be God! :O)
This morning as I was walking from class to the gym, I got a text from one of my best friends. "Prayers, please." I had a minute so I called her. We talked for a few minutes and she thought she might be coming down with something and really didn't want to. She had a stomach ache and a headache since the night before.
We prayed. Nothing really happened. While we were praying though I kept getting this feeling that I was missing something. The word "unforgiveness" kept coming from somewhere. After several minutes I just asked her if there was anyone she needed to forgive. At first she didn't remember anyone, then all of a sudden she remembered that she had had a dream last night about an old boyfriend who was less than a stellar companion. We prayed a simple prayer forgiving him and thanking God for taking care of him wherever he is.
As soon as we finished she felt entirely better and like a weight was lifted off of her shoulders! Go GOD!!!
I have to brag on God for a minute for myself as well. I got some incredible news today. Worry had started to creep in about my finances again when I went to the ATM to move some money from one bank to another today. I quickly reminded myself that I am a tither and an offering giver and God will sustain me. Later this afternoon I got a phone call informing me that I will be receiving a large and extremely unexpected check as a result of some money that was owed to me. Now I don't have the check yet, so I don't want to count the chickens before they are hatched, but I am pretty excited! Thank You Jesus! I am so blessed beyond measure!
A few weeks ago, I really felt led in my heart to plant a large (for me) financial seed into our church. As a single parent it was enough to really hurt. I will admit I was nervous doing it. The return on that investment was slightly over TEN FOLD!!! Praise GOD!
I really wanted to take my son and his friends to a karate tournament out of town in May and now it looks as though I will have the funds and more than enough to do it!
I love being a child of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords! He takes such wonderful care of us! That was even the scripture that came to my heart as I sat down to read earlier...
"See, I care about you, and I will pay attention to you. Your ground will be plowed and your crops will be planted." Ezekiel 36:9
