talking...realistic!!!

So we are talking...trying to be realistic. It is well into the second month, and the first one revealed that we are paying a lot of debt...but are overwhelmed by the interest that we pay...so it is making little impact on the actual debt.

1. We need a miracle
2. We are testing God in this
3. We are looking to God...as our source...rather than man.
4. We believe that community plays a part...but at what cost...we know we are here to play a significant role...specifically to challenge how we view money, lifestyle and debt. How do we actually live it...and how do we actually give?
5. We seek help from others...be it banks, people, anyone to give us advice.
6. It makes me think of what we ask people to do...when we ask them not to sin...and to walk away from specific relationship...how do we provide for them, when they specifically leave relationships with nothing.
7. How do we care...and give...which then comes back to how we choose to live...sometimes over and above our means...or in luxury.
8. That I get disillusioned with the body of Christ...something I have to take up with God.
9. that talking about finances is important...because finances is important.
10. That God will supply our needs according to HIS glorious riches in Christ Jesus.

Some thought today...some good...some thoughts, not so good...or maybe vulnerable and real.

We are talking with someone regarding consolidating...to see if that works for us.
I need to trust God...really, I am testing Him, asking that He show me His character and His promises for us.

If you have time...we'd love for you to pray for us.
