PTL! This is a big shout out to my Beloved HL! As always, He cares for me and provides in ways I could never imagine.
I recently let go (again) of worrying about how bills would be paid. Isn't He so wonderful to forgive and be gracious to us when we have to have lessons repeated for us over and over?? Reading The Poverty Mentality and reviews from the encouraging women of this ministry, as well as doing some of the lessons has been an eye opener and taught me the truth.
He is teaching me to trust Him more and more. He is here holding my hand and keeping me from walking by sight. I am so grateful. More walking by faith and not by sight has given me a wonderful peace.
He has also shown me that when I start to despair, to go to His Word in my prayer closet. He is right there to comfort me and lead me out of the despair.
Just yesterday, He surprised me with a check for a referral commission from a client I met over 2 years ago. Hallelujah. Just another precious and sweet example of how His timing is always perfect! And when we trust Him instead of ourselves, He will provide.
The more humbling gift from my Sweet Love and amazing Provider was that I was given a brand new company car yesterday—complete with seat heaters and a sunroof! Only our HH can do things like this!
Previously, I had gone to my boss and explained that I was not worried about my lack of sales recently. I confessed that I knew I was not meeting my work goals (even doing all that was expected of me and more) I apologized that I disappointed her. I humbled myself to the point that after working here 10 years, I said if she needed to let me go, I would understand and that my God would supply all my needs.
So, in response to my confession and humility to my boss as He asks us to do (it was not easy as the accuser had me feeling like I was no good and just a failure) He provided me with this Brand New Car!
Ladies, others are more deserving of a new company car because of sales goals being met and exceeded. This is absolutely ONLY Him. He even had my boss send me a text saying "I am blessed to have you!!!" He crushed the accuser's lies with that text to me.
I am so very thankful that my darling HL brought me to this ministry. I am forever grateful and committed to bringing His love to others.
"Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time," 1Peter 5:6 (NKJV)
He truly exalted me and lifted me up. I was the last one who should have received a new vehicle. Yet He found a way and gave me a monetary reward and a car as I humbled myself in submission...all by His strength and the power of His Spirit in me. And now I can give all the glory to Him!
"Let the oppressed see it and be glad; you who seek God, let your hearts revive." Psalm 69:32 (RSV)
I am empowered and revived! He is so good.
He is all I need. He is ALL I want and He is all I live for.

Do you want to PRAISE Him for how He's shown you how you can humble yourself when He leads you to and how He blessed you? Aren't you thankful that Pamela shared this with you an Encouraging Woman?
Remember, Matthew 7:13-14 tells us to “Enter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide, and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter by it. For the gate is small, and the way is narrow that leads to life, and few are those who find it.”
And Psalm 100:4 tells us HOW to Enter— “Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name.”
Be sure to submit a Praise Report today and enter through that narrow gate few ever find!
Also be sure to Read The Poverty Mentality that's sure to change the way you live too!
