Miracle on Dexter Way

So Liz and I were talkin the other day and realizing that we weren't making our budget...go figure. We were stressin about it and didn't really know what to do. I thought about getting a third job to try and make more $$$ for us. I even thought about backing away from working for the church as much and get a full-time job doing something else and work for the church voluntarily. I knew that wasn't really what God wanted from me. You know that feeling you get when you want to do something and God doesn't want you to go that way? Well that's how i felt about both ideas. Liz was shocked that i would even come up with the idea to back away from the church and she didn't want me to get a third job, that would kill us!!! I really didn't think that's what God wanted me to do either so i talked to Brent (my senior Pastor) and he asked, "so about how much do you think that you guys would need a month to make it?"

I said to him, "well about $500 give or take."

Now that conversation happened about a few weeks ago. Liz and I have also been talking about her transferring closer and an opportunity came up where she could, so she looked into it.

Here's the good part. Not only did she get the transfer (that would save us a ton on gas because she drives an hour to and from work every day), but they also gave her a raise!!!

Guess how much the raise was?

Just a little under $500!!!!

God is frickin amazing!!!

All I have to say is...have faith the size of a mustard seed.
