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.

Extra payment

Remember my "Hip Hip Hooray for 3 Paydays" post at the end of September?  Well this week we finally used that extra paycheck to make an extra payment towards our mortgage.  Yahoo!  (No one probably remembers any more but "yahoo!" is actually an expression of elation and not just a search engine)

This is the second extra payment that we have made towards our mortgage, but the first one since I started this blog.  As excited as I am, I also know that this is not the end all be all of how our mortgage is going to be paid off in 5 years.  God has something else up His sleeve.  Something more than I could ever conceive of in my finite imagination.  Just the same, I continue to marvel over how we are able to even afford an extra payment with only one income.  His miracles never cease...
