I've been wondering for a long time if my husband and I are being disciplined for not spending our money wisely. We should have waited until our other house sold first before buying this one. There have been a lot of good things about living in this house and I love it, but it wasn't smart to buy a house before the other one sold. We made a bet that our other house would sell quickly and the house won. (clever pun if I do say so myself) Anyway, I feel like God is teaching us about money and making wise decisions and we are learning the hard way. We thought we were wise with money. Wrong.
So, I vow that I will no longer complain about having two houses. Don't get me wrong it will still be a burden. But now it is a valuable learning experience from a loving Father not just an extra house payment a month.

Those are pretty cool thoughts. I'm just thankful our loving Father is oh so gentle. I'm thinking about my own "oops" moments too. Thanks for the perspective.
Dave Ramsey!! Seriously...I'm out of debt for the first time in a long time, and the freeing feeling is amazing!! However, I remember when I couldn't even see the tunnel that I was in and despair won out for years!! It took me years to do it, but I'm finally on a clear course! If you want to borrow the CD's let me know.
