Car Payment and BEING the Church!
Good Friday Morning, World!
Today I get to work all day with NO interruptions, because I do not have any more commits to have to honor. I am now, officially, a National Call Center Agent.
Tomorrow is the Sabbath, but I have a friend who is in need, so I will be working for the Lord tomorrow to help him out with life-saving treatment.
Everything I make tomorrow will go toward his needs. He is only asking for $875 (the costs left after the funding he already gets). All he needs is $601 more! That's a lot of money for someone who cannot work due to having Cancer. Any help he can get is appreciated! I am determined to give my tithes (since rather than GOING to church, I have chosen to BE the church, my tithes go where it is needed to make a difference in someone's life) and to work toward his healing.
Jesus said,
Matthew Chapter 12
12 How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.
That is what I am doing. It has to be done. This is LIFE SAVING treatment. This means he will DIE without it!
And, whether he lives or dies, his life will have been changed by the faith, generosity, grace and fortitude shown toward him through all this if we reach out, BE THE CHURCH, and help him.
Well, time for me to get the day started. I have to make $309 today. Think I can do it?
With God all things are possible. His Will be done!
As soon as my car payment is made, I plan to go get my taxes done.
Yesterday, on Facebook, I wrote:
OH CRAP! I just realized that I have to pay my down payment installment this month for my car! That means I have to come up with $645 by the 5th of MARCH!
God, I need YOU! HELP!
Update: I went to the Car Mart and told them my situation. I have been with them since Dec of 2020 and have not been late on a payment (every two weeks). Even when I called and asked for an extension because I THOUGHT I was going to be late, I have NEVER been late!
But I don't see me coming up with the whole $647 by Saturday. I just paid $338 (every penny I had) gathered from 3 of my accounts. I still owe $309.
I talked them into giving me until next Thursday to pay it. They agreed. WHEW. I'll probably have it before then...but this gives me time to get my Elastic Credit taken care of (then I can use THAT if I need to!...so much for not being desperate!)
I have to have my car. Without it, I can't make a living!
At least my rent is paid...
Oh, BTW...Thank You, Jesus, for the extension! I know You are going to help me come up with the money before the deadline!
Boy...my life is an adventure...isn't it? Just when I get through one problem, another one suddenly appears....
Have a blessed day!
