Hello, Lovelies. Today, aside from sharing some of my beach pics, I want to share with you something amazing that God did for Jereme and I last week. But first, you need a little backstory. At the beginning of this month, Jereme and I got hit with some disheartening news along with some unexpected medical bills. We had so many bills, that it ate up our whole moving fund (we are moving in October in case I forgot to mention in previous posts). We were both super down and stressed out that we may not be able to afford a move. On top of the health situation, our stress was super high. We were also heartbroken because we would no longer be able to take the vacation that we had planned. Boy when it rains, it really pours.
We had just found the house that we wanted, and we needed to put in an application fee. We honestly had no clue how we were even going to pay for that app fee. Let me also mention the deposit we would need in the event that we were accepted was completely non-existent. Going on vacation was so far out of the question that we stopped talking about it all together.
There are so many times that we just sit and laugh after the dust settles, at the ways that God takes care of us. Sometimes we have to live solely on faith just to get by. This month was one of those months. We just had to give everything over to God, and sit back and take it as it came. We didn't know how it would work out, we just knew that it would. He promises to take care of us and he did and always does. He says that we are more important to him than the flowers and the birds, but yet he feeds them. So, we had no choice but to trust that he would do the same for us.
No sooner than we had accepted that fact, a few blessings (that I can not really mention) fell into our lap. He was so good to us, that I could cry just thinking about it. He came through in a triple portion. Not only were we able to pay for the application fee, we paid the deposit and had money left to go on vacation (and all of the medical bills taken care of too). Can you even believe that? I am telling you, when Jereme figured everything up and told me that we were going to be able to go on vacation, I cried.
You are never going to believe it, but that is not all either. While we were living it up on vacay, another uh-oh happened. I got an email stating that a bill (that I knew I had already paid) was due soon. I was freaking out, like "What? That's not possible. I know I paid that." Well, sure enough, I did pay the bill. The problem was, I paid it too early. I forgot that the billing cycle was different than all of my other bills, so I paid it too soon. I felt so stupid. I told Jereme what I did, and he just shook his head. Great, chalk up another disappointment for the month.
Later, we went out to eat with his grandmother who had come to visit us since we were so close to Florida. She called Jereme aside and said that she felt like she needed to give him a little gift. She gave him the EXACT amount we needed to cover the minimal charge for that bill and guess what? We hadn't even told her about it. I know that God prompted her to do that. I am just so amazed that he did that for us. It is so amazing when he proves just how he cares about the tiniest of details.
How has God come through for you lately? Stay tuned for more stories and beach trip pics, and thank you so much for stopping by.
