Money........wish it weren't an issue.

Money…….it sucks.  But you can’t live in this world without it.   I’m trying really hard to get a handle on our bills, but some weeks are easier than others.  I know that God will supply all our needs.  Sometimes though our “wants” just get in the way. 

We live on what I make at my job and what Marty gets from disability.   With all the fun government healthcare, Marty now doesn’t qualify for Medicaid.   We always had a big spenddown, but the Medicaid always paid his Medicare premium.  No longer…..   Now that premium comes out of his disability check.   So…less money coming in. 

I just get so frustrated sometimes.  Robbing peter to pay paul.  Some days/weeks/months just exhaust me when it comes to figuring out what’s going to get paid and what isn’t.   I’m always praying that nothing monumental happens (you know, car repairs, household repairs, etc.)    There is just not extra money for that.  

Then there is winter…….   The daunting task of making sure we have heat!   Our landlord installed these cool gas heaters last winter.  They are awesome, except…….you gotta have gas!!!!!    

I’m saying all of this to remind myself that my God is bigger than all of these fears and doubts about money and any other thing that troubles us.  He will take care of it.  We just need to trust Him.
