Now I am reading and studying your post. The Bible says be a cheerful giver to the Lord's house. When you give your tithes and your offering are you a cheerful giver? Are you standing on what God says he will do in Malachi 3:10 are you standing on God's word in Pslams 37:24-26? You see you cannot say God's Promises in one hand and then take his Angles off the Job of assisting you as it states in the Bible Pslams 103:20., in the other. Do you Praise God for your bills? Do you Beleive God can bring you out of debt inspite of these economic times? It is where your faith is is where you are being tested. There are so many women on this forum who are women of faith and will share you their testimonies from where and how God is carrying them all through.
Let me share you mine. I am cheerful giver when I tithe and I offer. I was laid off in June of 2008 of a job of 10 years. My bills are paid and I am not in debt Praise God. I just Learn to Trust the Lord with all my soul and All times no Matter what.
We all get discouraged at times I do it too however, after it is all said and done, I turn that discouragement into encouragement. I see all that is going on around me with the economy and you know what I finally mastered the True meaning of,
I am in this world, but I am not of this world.
I am so much at peace with this and not only that I see God as our Jehovah Jireh, He our Provider! You have to say that and beleive God. His word cannot turn unto him void and God does not lie. This is why my own life depends on him!
