God is Good!

So the past few weeks have been very stressful for our family. First off me starting a new job and my kids having to get used to me not being home all the time. That is a big adjustment for them and they have don't very well. Second getting served foreclosure papers on our house and being confused and frustrated and a little unsure of everything that was going on with that. Third Joshua's brand new phone breaks and we are told there was not insurance on it and we are out of luck, gotta get a new one. All of this happens in the same week. This was a huge blow to us and didn't quite know how to deal with it.
Finally after days on the phone with our mortgage company we come to find out that they failed to send a cancellation of foreclosure notice to the attorneys who a year ago started the process of foreclosure on our home. Fine I now know we are not loosing our home but it was still in the paper this past week.  This will be a little difficult to handle when people start saying things to us about it but like someone has said everyone has "STUFF" in their lives! We are very fortunate to have fixed our problem but we still have to face the consequences of our past. God has taught me that no matter what we are going through, HE is always there for us. All we have to do is trust in him and give him our problems and he will meet our needs!!

We are still trying to figure out the phone issue but we luckily had an old phone Joshua could use for now so we don 't have to pay for another one!

One major praise I have is we just paid off all of our debt we had accept our home and that has been refinanced and we can now pay it off faster! My goal for us is to be totally debt free in 5 years. I truly believe that can happen if we continue to let God have control of our money and lives!
