Wow. It's been a whole month since I've posted. The month has been a real roller coaster of emotions but as I write this I can truly say that God has seen us through it and we are hopeful for the future of our family. Every so often even now, something happens or someone says something that jabs at the healing part of my heart but I am much more emotionally stable to say the least. (Really honey I am!) For a while there I was starting to wonder about myself! We are making plans to undergo another round of fertility treatments in the near future and are praying for God's blessing on our efforts. We still feel strongly led that we are in His will in pursuing this. We have grown in our relationship through our struggle through the past few months.
Summer has set in and we are busy as ever. Both working long days, busy with some summer church activities, family gatherings, etc. Before we know it we will be staring fall in the face. Not that I mind that since fall is my favorite and we plan to try to get away somewhere for a week or so in September.
Something exciting that we hope to see come to fruition this summer is paying off the credit card debt that has been a heavy burden we are eager to be free of! God has done an amazing work in our lives financially and spared us from the disaster that we deserved after years of mismanaging God's money! In His mercy, he led us to the Crown Financial Program where we learned how out of line we were when it came to stewardship of what God had blessed us with. We committed in February of 2006 to getting out of debt and we set our goal to be credit card free by 9/9/09. Now I know in your head you are thinking "Holy crap, that's almost three years of paying on them!" Good math skills. However, God has been so abundently graceful to us that we are on track to be debt free with the exception of our mortgage by the end of this year! It has been hard, really hard at times, to stick to our plan, but the reward of being out from under the debt is worth it to say the least. As we near the end of this, we are praying for the determination to finish it strong and stay committed to finances that are pleasing to the Giver of all resources. What an amazing day it will be when we make that last payment!
Well, that's it for my return to blogging. I have a feeling my readership has dried up over the past month but that's OK with me. I can amuse myself my reading my own random musings!
God is so good, He's so good to me. Kendra
