Not everyone will read this, but I know the ones who need to read it right now will. Dont give up! I shared my last post because I remember that day I spoke 2014 would be a year of increase! Then, Pastor Hagin said 2-0-1-4 would be a year of MORE! I also claimed 2014 would be the last year my family would be on Section 8, not because there was something wrong with us having it, but because wed make enough that we wouldnt need it anymore. Things started great at the beginning of the year, but it was like everything started falling apart right after graduation! The truck was vandalized when someone tried to break into it, my hours were cut in half to lower than 20 hours a week, we lost our house and ended up without our own home sleeping in my moms one bedroom apartment, I was denied a promotion at my job, I started looking for other jobs for a better schedule and more money but I knew I loved my job, and there didnt seem to be a way to save any money because something always kept coming up that wasnt planned. I tried to hold it together as best I could and my husband stayed strong while all of this was happening within a few months, but I ended up sick with anxiety attacks from everything ready to give up and just live a normal life. We arent perfect, but we try to live as close to godly as we can. We pray, we tithe, we believe. Theres no formula to faith, but if there was, I thought we had it down. I was wondering where I missed it, what I did wrong, why this was happening to my family, and I even told God I know the problem isnt with you so tell me where I missed it so I can fix it. There came a point though after I left the emergency room where I realized all of this really was an attack/test. Not a test from God because God will never go against His Word to test you, but a test from the enemy. Something CLICKED after that and I realized Id done exactly what my workshop sermon said not to do....I let myself get deceived! When I noticed that I repented, I praised, I worshiped, I prayed, I REMEMBERED! GOD IS FAITHFUL!! Within a little over 30 days weve been blessed to be able to move into a new house that is literally twice the size of our old house and has been completely redone and they let us move in for only $400! Its directly across the street from what will be the kids new school, and its in a awesome and peaceful location. We have amazing landlords! We dont own it, but they are letting us rent with the option to buy and they are offering to pay toward our closing costs and use part of our rent to go toward the down payment. Ive gotten a new schedule that will allow me to spend more time with my family and Ill be working more hours than before, Ive been promoted to a Certified Fitter with $2.00 more per hour and the opportunity to earn commission, my new schedule now allows Isayah to spend more time with the family too, my total increase in pay this year now totals $3.20 more per hour and the increase in pay will allow up to get caught up, stay caught up, and have extra after meeting our financial obligations! All this to say....GOD IS FAITHFUL! If you arent seeing what youre believing for....KEEP GOING! The valley DOES END and youre not alone in it! God is with you!! I hope this testimony restores hope to someone today because I know what its like to feel hopeless. Place your hope in God! Trust Him. Believe. Be blessed!
