Thank you for your prayers brothers and sisters.
My kids and I are still homeless and living in shelter. It has been exhausting.
I thought we were going to be moving into a unit today / tomorrow. The landlord promised me the unit and we were supposed to sign the lease yesterday. I even switched the electric into my name on Friday because he said the power would be off if I didn't. Now he is dodging my calls and won't answer my texts. He has been supposedly working on the unit, which would be great if we were going to be living there. But it's bad because he's racking up electricity charges in my name. This is terrible because I'm already strapped for cash. I can't afford to pay electric for a place I won't even be living in.
It seems that I was too quick to jump through the hoops he told me to. I should have had a signed lease first even if it meant not having power right away. I have been so desperate and I thought it was a sure thing. I feel foolish and taken advantage of.
Please pray for me. Pray for this unit to work out if it's a good thing. Or pray for me to have the wisdom to bail on it and disconnect the electricity if it's a bad thing. And pray for me to know what my next step should be. I looked at another place today but I'm not sure about it. My mind is frankly very confused and just surviving is a struggle. Making life-altering decisions while I'm in this disempowered position is proving very difficult.
i can soooo relate. Praying for you and your children, that God solidifies and rolls out extraordinary favor and provision for you and that HE lights your way, and that doors of blessings, favor, and protection open before you and your children. Father may it be so, in Jesus name, amen. (((hug)))
"Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more. For thy Maker
is thine husband; the LORD of hosts
is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called. For the LORD hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God. For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee. In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer. For this
is as the waters of Noah unto me: for
as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee. For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee. O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest,
and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires. And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones. And all thy children
shall be taught of the LORD; and great
shall be the peace of thy children." ~Isa 54:4-13
