This Past week

What is God teaching me this week?

I think this is a very important question to ask on a regular basis. I try to do this and try to stay focused on Him... The one thing I have noticed is once you are in God's will, you can quickly recognize when you are not in His will... :)

So a synopsis of this week in the shortest fashion... Adam and finally talked and I am finally listening to God's guidance and finishing my time as a Youth Leader with refuge (March 7th is my last night). This is such a good thing in so many ways, definitely a God thing... lets see what God has up His sleeve. So I am closing out this chapter in my life. It's one of the smaller ones, yet still important. I truly believe God wants me to spend more time with OUR Home and ROCK though... and at the end of the day without going into much detail, this is truly following God's path. Let's just pray for Refuge and new leadership as they step up (BC another leader just left to take a new job)...

Financially God has blessed me more than i could ever realized and i finally feel like i am back on my feet. I mean just a few months ago bc of a long story that isn't important my disability got cut which financially made an impact esp with a car payment and paying rent for a one bedroom (in a safe neighborhood=not cheap) and so i have learned really really well what living on a budget was all about. There were moments it was so tough I didn't think I would be able to pay everything but through Gods miracles and help i slid by............ but my tithing went out the window COMPLETELY....just bc logically i couldn't afford it and bills... but God really touched my heart about it and i kinda collapsed at His feet like 'i know i am suppose to and it is a trust thing, i just don't see how its possible. if you want me to tithe please show me that you will provide for my needs" (now i get you shouldn't pray to God like this but at the time i just felt helpless so ...) well the new week i get a letter in the mail, no return address, just simply "i will provide for all your needs, love, Jesus" and a gift card to a grocery store... NO JOKE and no one about my prayer.... such a GOD story!!!!!!!!! and then Megan found a job (my friend who just came back from Asia and wanted to move to Orlando) so now we can get a two bedroom to save money and other small things that have happened that is so God ordained in God's timing and you get the picture, right?

So if you can't tell God has taught me a lot in this last week. Trust, unexplainable faith and trust.... if I follow Him, I think He has exciting things on the road ahead :)
