Really...Really?

Frustration has set in.  It's time like these that I wish I had my Boaz!  Car problems again.  I headed over to a couples house today from church and my check engine light was flashing and car was jerking.  They sure don't make cars like they use too.  I remember cars lasting 15-20 years before you decide to trade them in.

On the news Thursday morning, they showed the top 3 worst jobs to have and #3 Social Work.  Well that's me!  If you keep up with the budget cuts that many state officials are making, it's in the social service realm.  I've worked for a non-profit organization for almost 10yrs now and I understand pinching penny's as my salary is based on grants and if we get approved for those.

I say this to say that those penny's that I pinch go to student loans and I just don't have enough to save up for another car.  I need just a few more years so I can get one paid off and then I can make car payments.  It's even more frustrating because I just had all this work done on my car so I shouldn't be having any problems.  My warrenty expires at the end of the month, so I pray that everything major gets taken care of.

Lord I come to you on my knees.  I want to have my pity party and cry and say why.  But I'm standing on your word that you will never give me more than I can handle and that you are my provider.  I come saying, I trust you Lord.  I trust that you have my best interest at hand, I trust your plan for my life and I trust that you are always working things out on my behalf.  Although at times I feel like I'm in this never ending storm and can't make it anymore, you seem to bring angels across my path to encourage me and remind me of your love.  I need you, this world needs you.  As I take my car in tomorrow, I pray that you are working on my behalf now.  I pray that I will not have to pay anything and the problem will be minimum.  Increase your strength in me, give me peace and the wisdom to make the correct decisions.  Thank you for loving me, hearing my prayers, and having mercy on my life.  Thank you for forgiving me when I mess up but most of all...Thank you for loving me enought that you died on the cross and three days later rising to save me!  By your Blood Jesus I am redeemed!

In Jesus name I pray...Amen
