“As for God, his way is perfect:
\nThe Lord\u2019s word is flawless;
\nhe shields all who take refuge in him.”\u00a0 Psalm 18:30 (NIV)<\/p>\n
I often need reminders of God’s provision and faithfulness. This weekend was a needed and very obvious reminder !\u00a0 We decided to purchase a new to us minivan in late May. The intention was that we would sell our current minivan for the same price as the one we purchased. We immediately placed ads on Craig’s list in addition to several other free sites. Initially we had several “lookers” but nothing serious. So six weeks later, \u00a0 Matt decides to update the ad to get some more attention.\u00a0On Wednesday, my car refused to crank and we knew the starter had to be replaced. I was not at all concerned because I just simply drove the red van to work while my car sat in the driveway. Matt was able to get the starter replaced on Saturday morning! The new ad on Craig’s list was already getting a couple of follow-up phone calls but not even a looker yet.\u00a0 Today, Sunday, we have someone drive down from Greensboro and purchase the red minivan.\u00a0 Not only does this allow us to pay down our overall debt but also makes it possible for us to afford Haley’s fall tuition without a hardship on our normal budget. I realized just last Thursday that I had not be saving enough to cover the tuition that is due in August. God already had a plan and I am so thankful that I can enjoy it.
\nGod’s timing is perfect, he knew we would need the van last week but more importantly, I need a reminder that we are in his will and he will provide as we need not as we want.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
