In Awe!!!

For so long Edgar and I have struggled with our finances and have lived pay check to pay check always worried what we would do if an emergency happened. About 3 years ago we started the Dave Ramsey program and have slowly dug ourself out of debt and have learned how to live within our means. It was a very hard adjustment and is still sometimes challenging when I want to buy the stuff I just want but don't need. I'm so grateful to God and Dave Ramsey and for the friends and family who have prayed for us and encouraged us, for we are now living comfortable. That doesn't mean we have lots of money it just means we have become good stewards over our finances and now live in peace about our future. We were able to buy our first home and now we are able to buy stuff to fix up our home. God has blessed us beyond measure for learning and following this program. I was sitting back today thanking God for where we are today. I can say for the first time we are very happy with where are life is right now and I look forward to all the great things that are to come. God is so so faithful and has provided for us every step of the way. Edgar and I would not be the couple we are today without trusting and leaning on our Lord and savior!
