I’ve wanted to start this blog for some time, but have been procrastinating as usual.  🙂  I will attempt to post at least weekly, or whenever I need to get thoughts out of my head and on paper.

Things seem pretty bleak… we are out of gas in the van, and I wonder if we will be able to go to church on Sunday.  The deadline for rent was today, and we are down to $5 in the checking account, and $6 in savings.  It definitely keeps us before God in prayer.

THEN… We got a call today to let us know we got another $1000 scholarship, and through some hard work from Karen in financial services, she figured out a way to get us a $1000 credit, which enables us to pay rent, with the rest going towards next semester!  We were also gifted $250 from another friend, which enabled us to pay utilities and gas!

I continue to be amazed at His care and love for us.  I often find myself wondering if we are doing the right thing.  I long for encouragement from people in our life… I actually mentioned that to Sten the other day.  That night, we came home to find a grocery cart full of food outside our door.  It even had dishwasher soap, which we had been out of for two days!  It was a good reminder to me to keep my eyes on our Father for encouragement… He has been so faithful to provide!

    I like your title and your picture!

    It’s amazing to watch God work like that. We’re in the process of watching Him do something similar in our lives… There’s a lot of waiting involved, but I’m being surprisingly patient about it.

    It’s funny. He’s promised to take care of us, to meet all our needs. We know it and talk about it, but it still seems to surprise us – or at least put us in awe – every time it happens.

    I’m looking forward to reading more!
