update

Alot has happened in the last 2 weeks. We finally got completely moved in. Jacob left to stay with my mom for awhile and it is NOT because he is a problem child. We miss him terribly. He just wanted to try out for some jobs up there and stay with my mom for a time. He really got sanctified during revival and he is anxious to help with the kids at my moms church and that sort of thing. It sure was odd to be sending him off on the plane.
I also had a birthday on the 18th and Abigail made me a delicious "from scratch" cake. I do believe I need to let that little gal in the kitchen more often! She enjoys cooking and her results aren't ever bad so I will have to loosen the reins some!

"F" in faith

I have been rather worried for the past few weeks. With the move---which includes higher rent and all that goes with it as well as the slowed economy. To make a long story short I wasn't really praying about the issues. I was worrying, but sitting in church the other night I realized that if I had been given a test I would of failed miserably! I turned it all over to God and he has really helped me with the issues. I have been very sick off and on which has also caused me some concern. God did come through for us and we were able to get electricity in the new house without the $300 deposit which really helped alot! Another very small thing(to those looking on)After my last bout of sickness all I wanted to eat was the cheese in a can but I can't afford to pay $3.50 for something like that so I told Daniel that I wanted it but not to worry I sure wouldn't pay that. I had to go to K-mart to get Calgon and I was short on money(not an unusual occurance) but decided it would not hurt to go past the sale rack and lo and behold they had the cans of cheese for $1! I was so surprised! I was telling my mom about it and I started to cry and told her to excuse me for my bawling but to me it was much more than a can of cheese. Of course, I shouldn't of even said anything about my bawling to my mom because when she started to talk I realized she was bawling also. She told me that God was showing me that he did care about the issues in my life and he was rewarding me for accepting the fact that maybe I could be content even without it!
