God is sOoOoOo GoOooOoD !!

I just wanted to share with everyone how God is so good! I tell you, he never ceases to amaze me to meet our EVERY need! As you all know Jeremy is a full time evangelist and after having our son, Piercen in December we made the decision for me to be home with him. I couldn't stand the thought of being away from him all day long and placing him in a daycare! I know some moms have no choice and others aren't happy at home so they choose to go back to work. This wasn't the case for me, especially when I wasn't even looking for my last job. God provided us with my last job working for a friend from church! I was on the job only three months when we found out I was expecting. God opened that door for us so that I could have health care while I was pregnant and he gave us peace for me not to go back to work after having Piercen.

For months now I have been so bothered with not having health insurance. I am a firm believer that God will take care of us but I am human and I worry! Alot at times. I am diabetic and so I do have health concerns. I began to pray about this situation but to be honest continued to worry about it as well. Several months ago I had a friend of mine approach me about coming to work for the company she is working for. She and I had worked together several years back for a huge company in our area ( I don't like to give all specifics because I have no idea who all lurks!). Needless to say she said it would part time with no benefits but the job would eventually go into full time. I told her to let me know when the time came for her to hire and I continued to pray if God would have me take the job. This job is a job working from home.... I prayed and Jeremy and I didn't feel I should take it at the time because there were no benefits and that would be the reason for me to be employeed.

Over the past few months I have been really discouraged because as hard as we try to work for the Lord I felt he wasn't meeting our needs for health insurance. I had even told Jeremy at one time if we both would get 'normal' jobs then we could have the house I WANT and the insurance we really NEED. Isn't it just like me to throw in that want!!!! God pricked my heart that we are doing what he has called us to do and that getting 'normal' so called jobs wasn't our answer. I kept praying.... two weekends ago on a Sunday... I had what I call a break down or pitty party! I finally just cried to the Lord and told him how I felt... You know it talks about in the bible to CRY to the Lord... I did just that. I told him how I felt financially it was hurting us not to have health insurance and how I worry constantly about it... how some doctors won't even see me because of no insurance. I felt so much better just to be real about how I really felt.

My cry was heard and God answered my prayer! My phone rang Monday morning at 8:15 and it was my friend... she was calling to tell me she had a recruiting assistant position open working at my home office , FULL time and FULL BENEFITS! NOT just health, but dental, vision, 401 K... and life insurance! This is the God I serve. When he does something he does it GOOD!

I started on Monday. It is going welll, I am working from home, Piercen is here with me. I am blessed. From October to the of February it slows down for Jeremy. He does alot of preaching but it is mostly on Sundays and Wednesdays. There aren't alot of revials and especially weekly revivals during the winter and holiday months. This timing is perfect! Gods timing is perfect!

I want to thank God for answering and I wanted to testifyof his goodness. I want to also encourage you who is reading this that if there is something you aren't sharing with the Lord, something you are holding back, something you haven't cried unto the Lord about to do so... After all, he already knows.. He knew my heart.. I just was trying to handle it on my own... worry was getting my no where.. He wanted me to release it.... He wants to meet our needs!

Here is a picture of our little family... I love my boys!!! I might add, this insurance even has maternity!!!! Jeremy just smiled when I told him that.... we are enjoying Piercen SO much .. maybe some day he will have a baby brother or baby sister!

God is GOOD, God is good, GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME! ALL THE TIME , GOD IS GOOD!
