You rock my world Jesus!!! ( Random blog )

Hey ya'll this is Nikke here. I just wanted to share a bit about what has been happening in my life lately.

2008 was a hard year for the most part. Lots of good stuff in between but overall hard.
With me not working and being a at home mom finances were pretty tight. God straight up told us that at home is where I needed to be so we have obeyed.
We have had to learn how to manage our money better (a good thing).
Adam started a second job in addition to being an apprentice electrician as a news paper delivery boy for the TNT.

The amazing thing is we needed X amount of dollars to get by and the route he got at the TNT covered what we needed almost to the dollar!! God is amazing!
Our goal is to be completely out of debt in 8 months and thus far the plan is going well.
Have I mentioned God is so amazing?! =D

We had to give up our car because we could no longer afford. It and that was tough but we need to be wise. We have made some poor decisions but we are learning from them and I am so thankful we are learning this now instead of later. Since we are still young.

Our families stepped up to help us out in our time of need which we are so thankful for and God has really shown us the meaning of giving.
Again God is so amazing!!!!

We have pretty much completely changed the way we spend money and now have a monthly plan each month to keep us on track.

It has been really tough having one vehicle the past 5 months or so but it has also been great at the same time. God has shown me that it is ok to ask for help when you need it. Like for a ride to church on Sunday or to help babysit at church. (Thanks Hansler's and Caroline) =D

Today, our friends Nathan & Kirsten called us and asked if we would like to have their extra car that they have. A resounding YES!!!!!!! was what I said =D
God is so AMAZING!!!!
It came at such a perfect time. It is hard being at home alone all the time and not being able to hang out with other moms and things during the day. At times I will admit it did depress me. God is so faithful though and has gotten us through all of this!!


I guess my whole point to all of this is we have been through a bit this year and God has shown us how merciful, compassionate and faithful He is.
We made our own mistakes with our finances and God didn't have to provide. Once we showed that we can and are willing to be responsible and take responsibility for our own actions God completely blessed us with what we needed. He didn't give us a ton of cash or anything like that He gave what we needed and that is perfect!!!
I am so excited to see what God will entrust to us in the future as we grow and mature even more!
I am excited for the day when we are out of debt and we can help others the way we have been helped!

I cannot even begin to explain just how BIG and AMAZING God is!!!!!!!!!!!!
He has blown me away with his mercy and love this year and continues to do so. He blesses me even though I am unworthy and that is just completely and totally off the hook amazing to me!!!


Lord,
Thank you for You provision and for loving me and my family. Thank you for Your mercies that renew every single morning. Thank you for friends and family that love us and continually pray for us in times of need and times of blessing.
Most of all thank you for putting me in a position now where I can be a better servant of you! You rock my world Jesus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amen
