Humiliation: An Element of Faith

This week has definitely been a test in faith and patience. I woke up anxious almost every morning wondering how/when God was going to work things out. Ever time I felt anxious, I confessed it to God, and my accountability partner, and turned it over to God in prayer. This week I have a new respect for the term 'surrender'.

One of the lessons I am learning is to contact the bill collectors and let them know what's going on. By making contact and trusting God for the outcome, I was able to work out new arrangements. Making these contacts is very humbling. So far the reps have been kind, and even understanding, but having to admit that I don't even know when I will be able to pay my debts is difficult.

I am looking for ways to get back to work to generate more income, but I haven't found anything yet.

It's such a juggling act "robbing Peter to pay Paul", and I'm ready to break free from this. I can't wait for the financial class to start next Wednesday.
