a little wednesday miracle

in true "laurie style"... i'm keepin' it real!  and this is the story of my little Wednesday miracle :)

if you regularly read my blog, you read about my word from God regarding finances and NOT worrying...  as hard as it can be, we all fret from time to time about money!!  and lets face it, we all have that financial moment when we are PRAYING we'll make it to the next pay day!  THIS is one of those weeks for us!

we balanced our checkbook and realized we needed to put $40 in to cover all expenses.  ugh.  it pained me to take even $40 out of our little savings to cover until Friday.  but grudgingly, i took $40 and intended to go to the bank this morning before work.

last night, i was talking to God about the money.  the gym we had belonged to mistakenly withdrew $44.50 from our checking account on the 17th.  when i called to address the mistake, they reversed it but said it may take 10 days to arrive in our account.  ugh.  so i said to God last night "you know God... we sure could use that $44.50 tomorrow.  that's pretty much the amount we need to cover our expenses for the week.  i'm trusting that you've got us covered here!"

armed with my $40 from savings, i left for work today.  as i sat waiting for my McDonald's diet coke (my morning routine!), i logged onto to our on-line banking just to check....

and there was the $44.50!

$44.50.... seems so minor... such a small amount... but EXACTLY what we needed and in the PERFECT TIME!  God knew we didn't NEED it 10 days ago!  he knew we'd NEED it today!  and there it was!  just in God's time!

God's time.... is not always OUR time!  God's time is the Right time!  so that's my little Wednesday miracle!!  :)
 
be blessed!!!

5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight.[a]
