It Starts with the Truth

I am FED UP with my finances!

I am a Child of the King, but I live like a pauper's kid.
If anybody looked at my checking account, they would think I didn't know anything about managing money...but I do!

It's time to stop surviving, and start living in financial freedom!

It starts with the TRUTH!

1. Our credit is a mess! I ordered the free annual reports today from all 3 reporting bureaus. I had to order by phone due to some security breach, so I should have them in about 15 days. I'm expecting them to be pretty low, but there is nowhere to go but UP!


2. Our household annual income went from $90,000 to $26,000 for a family of 5 in 2 years due to job loss and disability caused by a stroke my 48 year old husband suffered almost a year and a half ago. I left my job to care for him full-time, but know I need to return the workplace asap.


3. Our rent and car note payments are based on what we made 4 years ago. I need to find a way to lower these, and other, expenses.


4. We have 3 daughters who are all college-bound in the next 3 to 8 years and there is no savings to help with the costs.


5. Unexpected expenses, especially forthe girls, set me back regularly. I get child-support, but it's not enough to cover their expenses. Extra help from their biological dad is inconsistent.


6. I have to go back to work, but I'm nervous about leaving Craig by himself. He doesn't qualify for a paid home health aide, he's "doing too well by himself".


7. I've recently recommitted to tithing, and have found success using Paypal to tithe as soon as I get income.

With God as my help, and using the resources He provides (FACC sermons and workshops, "Lee Jenkins on Money", Crown Financial Ministries, etc.), I will find deliverance from this financial pit.
