Well I guess we all know that God doesn't really need much time to pull a plan together in a way that we could never imagine! He doesn't need the weeks or months that we do to pull a plan together. One second can change it all if God toss's you a blessing! Well it's the last day of the year and I have finally found a roommate! Yep... a nice guy it seems. I would have had to put in my notice to move tomorrow had he not showed up!
I didn't have the opportunity to do credit checks or reference checks as I would like... but he seems nice and he showed up with first & last months rent in hand... in cash. So I figure even if he doesn't work out I'm safe for at least 2 months!
I can relax now. Though, you know how after you're released from the hospital.... you're not really well yet... you still have to do the main recovery part of your problem. Well, that's kinda how I feel now. The 'surgery' is finally over and I'm going home... but now I have to do my recovery. That probably sounds a bit weird, but I've spent so much time in the hospital in my life that it's just the thing that comes to mind first as a comparison. LOL
Well, keep praying for me that this new roommate... Anthony... is as nice as he seems, and he doesn't do anything nasty to me like past roommates have done... and he's as reliable as the gospel.
I'm entering into this situation with nothing but 100% faith in God to get me through it. There's nothing else that I can use as a foundation, and I've come to realize today since all this happened that even though I never would have thought before that I've never been in that situation... 'cause I would have argued that I've gone through situations on 100% faith before, but you know what?! Turns out now, that I'm here and I'm looking back, I haven't... and here I am... nothing but faith in God to take me through it. I've prayed so much for God to give me such faith... so I guess that's the point. He's bringing me through it and is answering my prayers.
I hope that everything goes great with your new roommate.
