Greetings all! I hope you will forgive me if I share a little personal miracle that happened to me today.
I know a lot of you just think I am kind of a whack job at times, with a rather strange sense of humor. However, I actually have a serious side, at times, and I am also fairly religious - honestly! You can't have gone through a lot of the things that have happened to me in my life without having a strong faith in God.
Well, a few months back, to make a long story semi-short; I lost a lawsuit resulting from an old debt that happened while I was off-work without pay for four months when I broke my back in 2002. I tried repeatedly to make payment arrangements with this lawyer about this debt, but he didn't want to hear anything about payments. Instead he garnished my wages.
So for the months of February, March and April; I have just over $900.00 a month taken out of my net wages. It is has been a nightmare trying to keep myself above water. Finally this week I reached the end of my rope. I was stuck trying to figure how I was going to rob Peter, yet again; so that I could try to pay Paul.
I don't like to ask for favors for myself from God when I pray, although I am constantly bugging him for help for other people. This weekend, I finally ran out of options I prayed very hard and I told God that I needed to ask his help to get through, at least, this month.
Well, this morning I got a call from the agency that I am listed with, that I have landed a photo shoot for tomorrow morning in Seattle. It is for a large Health Care system here in the Northwest, probably for one of their brochures. Bottom line: About 5 hours work tomorrow. The payment: $750.00.
I don't know how I am going to manage next month, but, at least this month is settled. Of course, I have no idea how soon I will get paid, but the check is almost in the mail!
Forgive me for rambling, but I needed to share this with my family.
