I find a lot of times that when things really look grim, I really don't have anything else TO do, but give them up to God... today, we got the wonderful news that we will be paying over $2000 for car repairs. What can I say? Out comes the credit card we try so hard not to use, and there's nothing else to do, but pray again that God will send along a winning McDonald's Monopoly ticket or some "lost" money somewhere that someone's been looking for us so they can send it to us.
In the whole grand scheme of things, I'm learning that we really can't complain too much about financial problems. Everyone has them, nowadays. There might have been a time that we were some of the fewer people really struggling to get by, but with the economy the way it is, everyone is dealing with financial issues. We realized again, that we'd rather have financial problems than marriage problems or children with serious health problems or our own health problems. Of all the problems to have, I'd pick finances if I had a choice.
