• May. 20, 2008 - A Wonderful Time of Fellowship

We had a reunion of sorts last night with two families from our first Financial Peace class.  Our friends the Hansards were the first to reach their goal of being debt free except the house - so we gathered together to celebrate!  It was a wonderful time of fellowshipping and lively discussions for us adults, and plenty of 'socialization' for the 13 children that were here.  Towards the end we gathered to pray and thank the Lord for His leading us to be debt free and His provision over the past year.  We also shared how we had recently sold our car and were able to cut some more chains from our 'debt-monster' poster.  The kids were excited as they took turns cutting chains.  You can read more about our little debt poster and our goals on my husband's blog (see sidebar).  We are on schedule to celebrate again in the fall when we hope to make our final 'debt snowball' payment.  The third family in our group is also on schedule to do the same by the end of the year.  What a blessing!  We are changing our family legacy by learning to live debt free and teaching our children early how to live by these same principles.  Praise be to GOD!

Great message and a way with words sweetie. It was a great time of fellowship and encouragement in our Lord. I hope this message blesses others - especially those who are not married yet or recently married - that they do not follow the path typically followed - as we did.
