What a test

Am I ever being tested and I continue to hold firm.

Where to start.....well, I will start with my house. The adjusters came out the week of the December 17/07. That was fine, they were going through everything they have to go through. I understand that.....I phoned my insurance broker to ask if I should change my insurance now that I am not in the house ( it is unlivable ) "No, it can remain the same."

So, the next week again another break-in. I was away for Christmas, when I returned I found that the only thing really wrong was a BIG mess. Not a problem, I will get in and clean! Okay, I went down to check on plumbing to do it myself instead of paying $1000 deductible. Yeah, as I thought it can be done for under $400 ( actually under $200 ) Great! Not going to put in the claim or at least not going to use it.

Then this week I get a phone call from the insurance broker....my insurance company is canceling my insurance! WHAT? How can they do that? How will I get insurance? Will I get insurance? UGH!!

That's the house.

Daycare, for three days this week most of the children have been home sick. Some quite sick some just a little sick. Thank-you father for protecting Kendra and I as we have not gotten this flu that is going around...and is NOT covered by the flu shot. Different strain!

The special someone in my life is also going through a lot of trials in his life, so "our" getting to know and spend time with each other has been put on hold....well a little.

Now, when I look back at every curve God is through at me, let us look at the good.

God is a magnificent good God no matter what the circumstances that you have to go through. He has lifted me up and given me SO much to be thankful for over the past month. He has shown me that through all of this I will remain strong with him and only with him. He is constantly providing, from putting people in my life who CAN support and help me.

He has kept me safe and healthy, and he will only give me as much as he believes I can handle. NOW, this last one....over the past few days I have wondered if he REALLY thinks I can handle everything that he is testing me with. Last night as I was talking to God, he told me very clearly...."YES, JUST STAY STRONG IN ME"

I am going to go and fast today, and really be strong!
What a wonderful life I have!!
