Accolades to God All Mighty

I can say that the journey of Justin’s graduate school experience was based strictly on our trust in God. When Justin lost his job in January of 2008 we were set up perfectly to rely on one income. When we got married in August of 2007 we decided to live on one income (mine) and focus his salary on debt repayment and savings. In December of 2007 we had successfully paid off all debt acquired from the wedding. We had also managed to save a good amount of money. Sooooo, when we were forced to go down to one income, (although I felt like kicking and screaming) we were primed and ready to do so. I can say that I hated many parts of it all. We had to cut in anyway that we could. We did not take any big vacations and clothing allotments were out of the question. I have become a coupon queen. Eating out was a rarity. Gifts to family and friends were small if at all. (Sorry loved ones). Well to God be the glory. I can say that it is coming up on two years since Justin had a job that significantly contributed financially to the household, we still do not have any credit card debt. We have never gone hungry. We have always been able to pay our electric, water, and gas bill. We were always able to give our tithe to God and other ministries. We still have a little savings left in the bank. And we are closer to each other and closer to God because of it.

We are now trusting in God that he has a plan for Justin’s employment. He has trained him and we believe that God has a perfect place decided for Justin to continue his business career. Please pray with us as we wait on the job hunt to produce the right job.
