It's Rough Being Students

A tender mercy was delivered straight to my heart this afternoon.

Again, the Lord has shown me exactly how much he cares for me and my family. It's the end of the quarter, and bills are due. We were much too close this month and there was not nearly enough money in our checking account to go around. I have been praying for weeks to find a way to make ends meet. I started to squirm and freak out, and contemplate what to do. I had a feeling to pay my bills, and get on with it...not 30 minutes later I went to go count the cash I had on hand. (Big confession: I take out cash each quarter to set aside for the big insurance bills.) Somehow, I counted and counted ( I think I counted at least 4 times) and found there was too much. MUCH too much. It was what we needed. I don't know if I accidentally withdrew too much somewhere along the way, but my heart tells me it is a gift. I know my Father in Heaven is watching over us and taking care of us. I am so grateful for His hand in my life.
