I just placed my order!!!

Post by DHT1999 » Tue Jun 07, 2011 10:17 am

I just ordered the Creation to Christ Economy Package :D . I wasn't able to order everything else because we have had some unexpected expenses to come up. But, I was able to get the Economy Package and I am thrilled!!! I want to say THANK YOU for the new substitution policy. I was able to sub Famous Men of Rome, which I have wanted for a long time, for one of the books that I already had. I can't wait to see the Student Sheets!!

And, could ya'll please pray for us about these unexpected expenses?? My sweet husband is feeling very overwhelmed right now. He works so hard and is feeling so discouraged. We found out that our insurance company, who we have done business with for almost 20 years, is terminating our policy right here at the beginning of hurricane season and we can't find another company who will take us on without adding about $300.00 a month to our mortgage payment AND we only have six weeks to get a new policy. This is a big problem right now for alot of Gulf Coast residents. And, on top of that, both of our air conditioning units in our home are in need of repair and it is VERY HOT in south Alabama right now!!

So, we may be hot and uninsured going into hurricane season but atleast the kids will be educated :D .

Blessings,
Donna

Yay!!! So excited for you! Praying for you and your family too, Donna. I can so relate to the financial crunch...we live in South AL too near the Gulf and are also facing price increase in our home owners ins. all of a sudden. Bad, bad timing. :?

On another note...it's sooo cool to see a fellow South Alabam-ian :lol: on the HOD board!!!! I know no one else locally that uses HOD and would love to be able to link up to other local HOD'ers. Feel free to pm me anytime :P

Thank you! It was a bit of an act of faith to go ahead and purchase today and I'm certainly not advocating irresponsibility but I know the Lord will provide. He is so good to us.

I agree Donna, that our Father will provide. He is THE Provider of all our needs, according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Walk by faith and not by sight, and speak those things which are not as though they are! Like: "In Jesus Name, I declare that all my needs are met by my Sovereign God! I declare that I will prosper, that His Word will prosper in our lives. I thank you, Father, for providing all we need. I thank you that our insurance will not be more than we can handle, Father. I thank you that you have just the right insurance coverage for us, Father. In fact, YOU are the GREATEST insurance anyone could EVER have! I put all my trust in you, because you are good and your love toward me is never-ending, and all your plans for me are GOOD!" As we walk by faith with a pure heart before our God, laying aside all sins known and unknown at the foot of the cross daily, He is FAITHFUL to provide all that we need and desire, in accordance with His good and perfect will. Just speak His Word over this financial situation. Speak it in prayer and say it in order to renew your mind daily. His Word will NOT return VOID, but will accomplish what it is sent forth to do.

Bless you friend. I hope this encourages you. It is what our Father is teaching me, and I wanted to share it with you. Blessings and I will be praying and BELIEVING with you. Blessings!

God will provide. If He called you to do it, He will take you through it. I am praying for all of you down there in the Gulf region as well as those in MO and OK. It's been a tough year.

I will be praying that the Lord will show Himself mighty and provide exceedinly, abundantly above all you could ask or think of, as well as protection during hurricane season, and peace that surpasses all understanding for your dh (and you as well).

Yes, THANK YOU, you have encouraged me greatly!!

I appreciate everyone's kind words!! I will let ya'll know how God works and provides for us. I am so thankful for other believers and the blessing of prayer. It would be neat if we had a subsection of the forum where we could go to post prayer requests.

:D

Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm. It blessed and encouraged my heart today. :D
