“So is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” Is55:11
Hi precious brides π l want to share a quick praise, something that happened yesterday.
So to give you quick background my eh is not working, decided to open a business from home selling fishing tackle and fixing rods and reels. He is getting business fixing rods and reels which he is really good at but the tackle he bought is not getting sold..This puts our family in a precarious situation ππΌ And we also have my mom living with us.
Having my mom living with us is like having another dependent, an extra mouth to feed…and when she gets sick l usually also take care of anything she needs as she only gets a pension. I told my precious Husband that as long as my mom lives with us l trust Him to provide and HE has ππΌπ
At times its tough but l wouldn’t be here to share a praise if everything was all roses πΉπΉπΉwould l π
So yesterday morning we basically ran out of everything, like no bread, nothing for breakfast. But l had so much peace in my heart and like the WW Helper Suitable teaches, l was not going to make any plans because l am not the savior, all l need to do is be His Bride π°π» and HE takes care of it π so l rested in bed and just spent time with Him. To be honest a few months ago l would have been worrying…..
βFor theΒ husbandΒ is the head of the wife, asΒ ChristΒ alsoΒ is the head of the church, He Himself being theΒ SaviorΒ of the body.β
Two things happened, eh made arrangements to drop off a reel that he fixed and receive payment and my mom got her pension and gave me a small amount she contributes towards food every month.
The praise is this… The sum of these 2 amounts is small… There was a LOT to take care of. But it was nothing short of amazing how everything was covered. We were able to to:
*Buy a few groceries *buy electricity *put fuel in our vehicle *pay the minimum amount for wi-fi
I did not notice but eh said to me ‘do you realize how much we were able to take care of with that money’? and then when l thought about it l was amazed and said yes its because l paid a tithe on the money π
This would never have happened if my eh was still working. I am still trusting and praying for him that my Husband works in his heart to become not just the financial but the spiritual leader our family needs ππΌ
I am thankful to my Husband because HE is working in the financial struggles…eh decided a couple months ago to start looking for a regular job ππΌ
I am trusting that tithing will become something that eh will do automatically when his HF blesses him with a more stable income ππΌ and that he also finds his own storehouse ππΌ This is BIG!! And something l have bern trusting for YEARS…
But in the meantime PRAISE HIM ππΌππΌππΌ l am thankful for the struggles, for the journey… for this season… although l must admit l do struggle still but HE is working in me and l am feeling more at peace and resting in Him as the bride that l am everydayπ°π»
Dear Atarah, What wonderful blessings you have received. I also had a very long period in my life where there was always a shortage of money and NO tithing.
Since I started tithing, it makes sure that there is never a shortage.
Our Beloved Heavenly Man will certainly finish the work He has started in you, your EH and your family!!
I love this Atarah. It’s so easy to worry and get anxious, especially when things are tight financially, but we know that true peace comes from trusting in His plans. It’s amazing how even a small amount can go a long way when we put our faith in Him! πI have been re-reading Poverty Mentality again and making a note pad of principles that stand out to refer back to
