God's Precious Perfect Provision

Posted in Single Moms as Keepers at Home

Awhile back, probably in January, I had put up a post (which I have since removed) that I was considering applying for funds from Homeschool Foundation's (http://www.homeschoolfoundation.org) Children of Single Parents Fund (http://www.homeschoolfoundation.org/funds/SingleParent.asp)
to help out with some financial burdens I'm carrying, right now, from poor financial decisions made in my youth (before I had children or even knew homeschooling was an option for those who did).

It took me awhile to bring myself to actually put the application in.  I just kept thinking -- I'll make it somehow.  There's my sin nature - pride - rearing it's ugly head.

I recently submitted my part of the application process, knowing that my references had long since been received by HSF.  I also knew the ball park that I could expect to receive. 

When I checked the mail the other day, there was a check, from HSF.  My request had been approved.  And for a higher amount than I originally anticipated. 

While I basically know where this money is going.  I'm taking the next three days to pray for the Lord to show me specifically how I can best use it for His glory in our homeschooling endeavors.  The grant is a one time thing, so this is it.  I need to be the absolute best steward of this blessing that I can!

This isn't the only way the Lord perfectly provides for my family and I, but it's the most recent way, and I need to give Him, all the praise, honor and glory for this.

Blessings, MaggieRaye
