God. Will. Provide.

One of the challenges of being a student is that you don't always know how you're going to make ends meet. Sometimes, financial aid ain't right; it's hard to find work that accommodates school; and life happens, loaded with unforeseen expenses. This was one of those months. But, I knew it was coming.

A while ago, I was anticipating the fellowship year ending and the transition period until the start of the new cycle. I remember praying back then. I asked God to make a way.

I've been practicing the art of releasing worry and having faith, and as each day crept closer to August, I had to push harder and harder in the direction of faith.

August 9, 2013, the day before rent becomes officially late, I mentally strategized a back up plan, (*cue Kevin Hart voice) cuz the way my checking and savings was set up...yeah, it was looking a little bleak!

This morning, on my way back from checking on a neighbor's cat, I saw the friendly reminder in the elevators of rent being due. In bold letters and bright blue font, this notice so graciously let us know everything we needed about getting our payment in on time. No panic...well, slight panic, but make it happen mode. #faith

Now, mind you, I had already checked my bank account at around midnight. Needless to say, I had come to the conclusion that money was definitely going to have to come from somewhere else. I sat down to the computer this morning and tried to figure out where that somewhere else was.

I literally typed the words: God Will Provide.

And then something said check my account again.

I THOUGHT I WAS SEEING THINGS. Within seconds, with jaw dropped in disbelief, I hit the ground in a stance of gratitude, and shouted like nobody's business. Then texted Lawrence and called my Momma to testify!!!!

Moral of the story: God hears your call, and supplies ALL of your needs. Always in PERFECT timing.
