God has challenged me to write about how He will supernaturally pay off our mortgage in 5 years. I am a homemaker, my husband is a teacher, and we have three children. Our mortgage balance at the start of this blog is $97,802.62 with a projected payoff date of May 11, 2035.

Sounds foolish, huh? The Bible says that, "...God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise;..." So I am choosing to be foolish and trust Him. He's never let me down before.

My Many Miracles

I haven't talked in a while about my mortgage.  After all, the original aim of this blog was to show anyone who may read it the miracle I am trusting God to do--paying off our mortgage in five years.  We are currently in year two.  September of 2014 will be three years.  The mortgage balance is at $91,332.42 and I am still trusting God.

The reason that I can post about so many things aside from my mortgage is because God is so good!  He constantly blesses me, teaches me, and rebukes me as a good Father should.  If I were to look only at what I don't see happening in my mortgage balance, I would be missing all that I do see happening around me on a daily basis.  My neighbor's two-year prayer answered.  My seven-year old's sorrow in lying.  Finding freedom from fear.  A warmth inside of me that cannot be taken on a 20 degree day.

I look forward to seeing how and when God will pay off my mortgage, there's no doubt about that.  But in the meantime I am content in seeing the daily miracles that remind me of His faithfulness.
