Update since the weekend

Yesterday was an amazing day. I felt that God really had a word for me during the sermon, but I was scheduled to work in the preschool. A sweet friend from Sunday school offered to work for me. That was the beginning of the blessings. Then the girls got up on time and got ready, and we made it to church on time! Doesn't sound like much, but that's a big accomplishment! Then another friend came out of the choir to come sit with me and pray! I am so blessed! The sermon was about Faith in God, studying Abraham. Wow...what faith. I felt so inadequate, but God showed me that he is teaching me patience and faith. Then I get to S.S. and the love I felt from everyone was amazing. Then my S.S. teacher and dear friend Rhonda, stopped class just to pray for Dee and I, and the girls. Praying for the meeting with the Inspector General. Dee was supposed to meet with him/her yesterday. The prayer really blessed me too! I felt such a peace.
Then John and Rhonda took us out for lunch and I enjoyed time with them. So last night, I was so at peace about things. I know God is going to take care of things. I just have to wait on HIS timing!
I spoke to Dee last night and they had been on the range all day, and he had not even seen his 1st Sgt. to see if he could schedule a meeting. So he met with him this morning and the 1st Sgt. confirmed that the Capt. was totally behind this decision to see the IG. This is huge. It's like tattling on the Army. But we have no choice. It's not like we haven't done everything we could.
So this afternoon when I talked to Dee, he said the 1st Sgt. couldnt even get in to get an appointment with her. (The IG) She had been in meetings all day today and yesterday. So we are still stuck! NO way to even talk to the IG right now. We just have to wait. So I was really frustrated.
I was blessed yesterday when someone gave me some grocery money, but I was torn on how I should use it. I had 1/16 of a tank of gas, and we had no groceries. Then today, someone else blessed me with bags of groceries and three cooked meals! So I didn't even have to come home and cook tonight. God is so good and my friends are amazing!
THEN I gave Dee the mortgage company's phone number and he made a call. I don't know what he told them, except he explained the situation. I guess God blessed us with a Customer Service agent that was understanding. She agreed to take the partial payment, which we were told they wouldn't. So I was able to Western Union and wire the money to keep the house out of collections! Praise God.

For those that don't know, Dee was out of work for 4 months this past summer. The Army took him on fulltime in October. The Army messed up his pay then too. We finally got it straightened out in November. We were able to use the money to catch up the utilities, the car, and other bills. We've been saving up some money for the mortgage to pay the entire amount that they required. This check was the check we were going to be able to pay the total amount. THEN no check! So..........the mortgage company took the partial payment! So that's awesome.

Then today, Dee was on the base which allowed him to have a phone signal. SO I've been able to text him and talk to him several times today. He got to talk to both girls as well.
So God heard my prayers of frustration and allowed blessings to flow through, in spite of the other mess. Having friends that text me, email me, call me...telling me they are praying is so amazing. God is so good to provide these ladies to me in my life.
I am so glad I was obedient months ago. I was in a couples S.S. class, but when I knew Dee was going to leaving, I felt I needed to be in a Ladie's class. PLUS, I felt God wanted me to be a mentor to other young ladies. SO I gave up alot......friendships, Sunday school class, changed services....in response to God's tug on my heart to do so. So for being obedient, I am reaping more benefits than I could ever give! WOW!

So if you are one of those ladies, know you bless me every day!
