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.

Fill 'Er Up

I wrote in Cost of Raising a Child about how faithfully God has provided for our new baby boy, Story.  Well, to my amazement, He continues to do so.

We have the money for diapers and formula, yet God has consistently paid for these items through others for the nearly 3 months of his life.  Whether it be through shower gifts, gift cards, or giveaways from other parents, we have not shelled out any money for these two items.  On several occasions I have thought, 'All right we're nearly at the point where we need to pay for diapers.'  Soon after we receive some outgrown ones from another family, or a gift card to Target.  The same with formula--God keeps refilling our cup...at times even before the need arises!

I had no choice but to write about what He is doing to provide for our needs.  As He fulfills each one, He fills up my heart with gratitude.

    So glad you shared and posted. Too often time slips by and I fail to publicly share how the Lord continues to provide in so many ways. Thank you for this challenge and opening my eyes to take opportunities to give Him praise for his provisions.
