TAXES:  I still have not received my tax refund, but today….for the first time….the IRS website says something other than “there’s a delay in your refund.”   Today it says that I should receive my refund on April 3^rd, and that if I don’t receive it by April 8^th, I should call my bank.  So that’s good news.

DEBT:  In reference to my previous post “I Trust God,”  God has seen fit to answer our prayer with a “yes.”  I was praying that He would provide the money we needed, but, if He did not provide it, I was thankful that it would not have been the end of the world.   Well, a friend (I don’t know if this friend wants this known publicly, so names have been withheld to protect the innocent) has graciously loaned us the money to make this month’s payment!  They said that we can pay them back after this debt is paid in full later this summer, and they even gave us a little extra to buy groceries!  God is truly good to us.  He would have been no less good to us if He didn’t provide the money through this friend, but it appears for now that our plans in this are in alignment with His plans, and that’s exciting.
