Christmas Miracles

So, since John has been out of work since February and not able to collect unemployment due to being to sick to be able to work, finances have been tight (TOO TIGHT). Well John helped his friend put in a new server in his office and he paid him for his help. We paid off my credit card (because the annual fee was coming up soon) and closed out the account. The woman from the credit card company was asking me why I wanted to close my account and I said because my husband has not worked since February, and she has the nerve to say well how can you pay it off then, would you like us to lower your interest rate instead? ARE YOU CRAZY! I do not need another bill or added finances. Well later that day my hubby decided to pay on his credit card (too big of a balance to pay if off) and forgot that we had paid mine off and ended up putting us in the negative in our checking account, so negative that after my paycheck was deposited it is still in the negative. So I was stressing wondering how we were going to get the last minute gifts that we still had to buy without using the credit card and I went out to the mailbox the other day and there is a card addressed to us with no return address. It is post marked from Salt Lake but anyone could have gone to Salt Lake to post it so that we could not figure out who did it, well the card said that they understood that finances were tight and decided to give us some help. There was money in the envelope. Then on Sunday night the Bishop comes to the house and I answered the door and he said just the person I wanted to see and handed me an envelope and said Merry Christmas. I opened the envelope and again money. I cried, the Lord really understands are needs and has angels to help him answer our prayers and help us in our time of need. I have prayed for those angels to receive special blessings for being so generous and loving as to donate money to help others. I know I cannot pay them back but I sure can pay it forward when we are on a more financial stability and I will definitely be willing and wanting to do it.

Christmas is a time for miracles and love and I am excited for Christmas and the opportunity to spend time with my loved ones.

I wish everyone who reads this a very Merry Christmas!
