anyway, i was to get paid today. only getting my pay and getting it deposited in time - did i mention i had already put the mortgage check in the mail yesterday believing that all would be provided (that is the key as you will see in a moment.). covering it was going to be a tricky thing. but i knew that i was to put the mortgage check in the mail, God would provide.
i called work to see if my pay would be brought from bartlesville in the campus mail, or how it would be handled. (i never thought to check on this before of course...) my paycheck was still sitting in bartlesville - about an hour away. mailing it would take FOREVER, even bringing it down in the campus mail i would not be able to get it until monday. still i held on - God would take care of it, even if it meant slowing the mail to kentucky down. (the mortgage payment goes there i think.) i spoke to human resource on the phone, she said she would track it down and see what could be done.
i began to praise God for His mercy and favor, thanking Him that it is available forever more. i was quite nervous - heck i was scared. what happens when the mortgage check comes in and the payment is not there...... and so i praised Him anyway. almost as soon as i started to sing the phone rang and i got the news that the check would come in the campus mail for tomorrow. i got on my knees to continue praising God and the phone rang a second time. she told me my paycheck was already deposited into my account.
WOW - now ain't that something.
5 Trust the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding. 6 In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths smooth.
Proverbs 3:5-6 (God's Word)
the check will clear no penalties. and there was an extra bonus in the checking account, money i did not even expect from a source i forgot about. God is good. and it all came together perfect timing. God is neither early, nor is He late in His work.
God IS my provider. WOOHOO!!!!
