Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone!!! I just wanted to tell you a little story about something that recently happened to me that was all the proof I needed for the doubts I had within... He is real... He is listening... and He is with all of us...
A couple of days ago I almost got into an argument with my boyfriend b/c I had a mad face and just gave him a "nothing" when he asked what was wrong... I thought about the program... I thought about the issues I am in process of overcoming and decided... "You know what... I'll tell you what's bothering me"... I started to tell him how my 2nd job was stressing me out... It has been stressing me out mentally also lately and I don't want to work a 2nd job anymore.... I have been there for 5 months and need 7 more months to get the dental benefits which I need SOOOO BAD!!!!! He told me to leave the job and that we would pay out of pocket (I found that surprising by the way) I felt that would put more stress on us also and just told him "we'll figure something out"... No more than 5 minutes later he comes into the bathroom opens the shower door and says "God answered your prayers"... It just so happened that the news that was coming up in a few minutes had a topic of "How to pay half or less on dental work"... OMG!!!!!!! I cannot begin to tell you what that did to me internally... I have to be honest and say my faith was getting low and that was all the proof I needed that God is real and He is with us, when we least expect it... That also made me aware of how important it is to actually let my boyfriend know what's bothering me... he would never have even noticed the tv had I kept my mouth shut... God is good and His mercy endures forever...
