We have been homeless since December 17, 2008. It has been a long hard road. We would have never made it if it wasn't for God. He's been with us every step of the way.
We've never had to sleep outside. He has always provided for us a place to sleep at night.
We've always been able to eat. It may not have been what we wanted but it was food.
At times, I would get down right in my flesh and mumer and complain.
I wouldnt want to talk to anyone. I would cry myself to sleep at times.
For the new year, I went to church and the man of God preached on New Years Resolutions. Here is what he talked about.
Phillipians 4:4
"Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say rejoice.
Be full of joy all of the time. He has filled you with the Holy Ghost. We have so much to rejoice for.
Phillipians 4:8
"Finally breathren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of a good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
In a nutshell, fill your mind on good things. Think on positive things all of the time.
Here is the biggest thing for me to learn;
Phillipians 4:11
"Not tht I speak in respect of want: For I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
I have to admit this one was hard. Everyday has been a struggle learning to be content no matter what. It has been a learning expierience for sure.
I believe if we could all get a grip on being content we would all be happier people.
On a better note, my husband started working Wed and by faith, we won't be homeless soon anymore.
In Jesus name!!
