On the brink of the new year I remember laying in bed with my husband discussing the possibilities of setting some goals for this year. Well, the first thing out of my mouth was paying off our car. Let me just say.. I don't know where in the world that came from, and the idea of doing such a huge task was really unrealistic anyway.
Well, over the past few weeks the desire to become debt-free has been heavy on my heart. (Funny how that happens after taking out a HUGE sum of money for our house). Despite us about to be having a money-eating-machine baby and just buying a house, I do believe that this year will be the year we see God move in our finances.
Wednesday was my day off from school & volunteering at Hebrews, and I spent most of the day budgeting and making a bill log sheet for this year. (I also finally dusted, and cleaned the kitchen too).
I-do-believe-it-is-possible for Brandon and I to pay off close to $10,000 in debt this year.
There I said it: Our goal for 2011.
Have faith the size-of-a-mustard-seed today.
With it, God can move mountains.

I am so on the same track Megan! I just got a second job because of it. God has totally put this burden on my heart to be debt free and I am loving every minute of it. You guys can totally do it! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to see others are passionate about eliminating their debt. Imagine what you could do if you were debt free? Look forward to seeing how it goes for you all. Matthew 17:20 says it like it is, with faith the size of a mustard seed you can move mountains and
ReplyDelete"Nothing will be impossible for you" Their is no reason at all to doubt that you can accomplish anything when you put God first. I have experienced God in ways that NOT ONE single person could tell me God is not real. Having experienced this, why do I still find myself doubting that God can accomplish the task before me?
Yes, we can do this and we will. Thank you for all your support My Love!!
