I have to admit that I was feeling kind of down earlier in the week. Had a payday coming up with basically no pay. Had only worked one day this particular pay period. So, that little money was going on the necessities for the house. The hubby's unemployment check goes on the rent. He don't ever seem to worry about nothing and he always telling me "We are going to be ok" Me, I can't help myself sometimes. So, we had no way of paying the car note, no bills, and had no idea what we was going to do for gas money. I had my mini-breakdown Tues. Did all the crying and snotting everywhere, the whole nine. But then, I picked myself up, went to the restroom for some alone time and I prayed. I prayed on our situation and I gave it over to God. I'll have to say about 30 minutes later my job called asking me to come in the next day, which was that Wed. I've been working since that day and from the looks of it, will be working next week. Anyway, that was one problem solved, I had a future check coming in. Mind you after I prayed and gave it over to him, I honestly didn't think or worry about the bills or the fact that we had no money to pay them. I said I was just going to have to make some calls and pray that these people work with me. I called my car people before I went to work and they said they would work with me. That was one bill extended, I said I was going to call the other companies Monday morning. So, I go to work and I receive my check, as I'm opening it up, in my mind I'm figuring out what all I'm going to afford to buy far as my household items, with this 1 day check. I opens it up and it's not at all what I thought it was going to be. My initial reaction was, this is wrong, so I go to HR and double check my hours. Because I'm the type, if its wrong, I want to try and fix it so, later on it won't come back and bite me in the butt. Anyway, HR tells me that my check is correct. I just dropped my head and thanked God cause only he knew. The first person that popped into my head after I thanked God was my grandmother. My grandmother(may she rest in peace) used to always tell me "He may not come when you want him but, he's always on time" I am definitely a testimony to that. . God keeps me in awe of him!![]()
