| God will supply..... |

| Well, I just want to testify of what God has done. You know sometimes the storm of our life can blow us anywhere when we don't keep focus on what God wants in our lives. Not only what is good for us but also he cares of what we want out of life. Recently I had gone through a foreclosure on my home. This was the most terrible feeling in the world. The house my family and I planted together is now gone to me. Hurt, Pain, Madness, Sadness, every feeling in the world I felt at the time of the move. It was one of those things that wasn't our fault. My family and I had only 4 days to get out of the house. So my feelings had me down and out and I was complaining to God about every thing under the moon. My children were devistated as well as my husband and I. We searched and searched for a place to go and now only 4 days left. I knew with all my heart God will not fail us. My husband David and I prayed and worshiped God through this horrible storm. We had peace the whole time but very sad about the situation. Which is pretty normal I think. I had to explain to my children about our home and that was tough. My daughter Bethany had a rough time and cryed alot about it but we stayed connected as family and she came out fine, my son Cameron which is autistic and very hard to change at anything did better than we did. Praise God for that. I wasn't sure about him but I knew God had done alot of healing in him anyway. My son Benjamin had the roughest time. I had to carry him out screaming and crying and very tough on me. I had my meltdowns believe me but to my son he is only 2 and doesn't understand so I was mad at the situation. I went through so many feelings in just 4 days. I went to look at a trailer which didn't come through and time was playing against me. I cried and cried and just took a drive by myself and found myself in a parking lot saying to God, "Lord , what do I do?" I have now 3 days left and no place for me and my family to go to. My husband David started a new job so he couldn't get off work at all to help me find anything for us. I simply said "Lord I don't want to live in junk and I want my son Cameron to be able to go to the same school and Lord we need it to be in a good price range for us to be able to rent". I left that parking lot and went home. I got a phone call from my husband David that just got off work around 6:00 pm. He said "Misse I feel I need to stop off at a friends house for some reason so I am" I said "Ok see you when you get home. Then hung up. He calls me back in 15 minutes later and told me that his friend said that there was a house in Cross Plains that could be for rent. Funny thing about this was my husband David's sister worked with the people that owned the house. I called his sister to get the number about the house and that night we went to look at it. Needless to say it was beautiful. We loved it. We had to ask at that time how much a month and God truly did a miracle, it was lower that what we could do so that was good and no deposit on it. PRAISE GOD!!!! Although we sold some things to be able to get a deposit we didn't even need one and we moved in the next day. No electricity needed to be turned on or water it was already on. All we needed was to move in. He didn't even want the rent until the first of next month. Now if that isn't God I don't know what would be. My son can even go to his school. AWESOME! God supplied everything I prayed for that day in that parking lot. I know that we all go through so many things in life but when you stand and be at peace God will do what his word says he will do. We expected God to move and he did. We lived with expectancy. We didn't bend to the pressure of time. Of course God does it so well, we live in between a deacon and a pastor boy what message did God give us. We rent off the deacon. We have had 2 pastors of a Baptist church come see us and welcomed us into the neighborhood and the next door neighbor brought us a pie. Now is this not overflow. Well this is my testimony and I say "YES!!!" God may never come early but he will never be late, always on time. So everyone out there that is going through a struggle of life just stand and hang on to Jesus, he will come through for you. My favorite verse in the bible Phillipians 4:19 " My God will suppy ALL my needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus" Be encouraged and God Bless you all. |

| Awesome testimony, Misse! Thanks for sharing it with us. It is very encouraging. I too am learning about God's provision. It's not always when and how we expect, yet He is always faithful to provide. I pray God's richest blessings on your new home!!! |

Misse,
I am sorry we as a church family did not know about your need. I would have thought we could all have pitched in to help. Well, it may have been your time to move though. I have to think of that. I am excited with you that the Lord provided. We need to be encouraged! Alot of ppl, and even we, are going through rough times financially in this winter month. But, I have not been found begging for bread! Amen!
God bless you and your family. We will miss seeing you in Versailles when we are there, but I know you are in his perfect will. |
