When God was leading us to surrender our family size to Him and to homeschool our children, we wondered how we'd afford it with only one parent working. Everyone in the world was saying, "It takes two parents working to support a family nowadays." And, those people only had two children!
Faith doesn't figure things out beforehand. A leap into the unknown is required for it to be faith. Faith is that "believing without seeing."
We trusted the God that was leading us even though we could not see how it would work out. His Word backed up what we felt in our hearts. Then He sent us confirmation through people we met and books we read.
God has blessed us in so many ways for walking blindly trusting Him to work it out. We have never regretted it. Instead, we are deeply grateful this joy filled life is ours.
This came in the mail yesterday. Free. We can and will use every bit of it.
Stuff like that happens to us all of the time. God provides!

A couple of years ago, something fell into my lap that has blessed our family over and over. Then it went away. I had walked with God long enough to know something better was coming. It did. Something fell right into our laps. Now, we are in the middle of a new, bigger venture that has already been more lucrative that what preceded it...and it's only just begun! Walking with the Lord by surrendering our will for His has been exciting and rewarding!
Our family testifies that you can blindly follow the Lord. You can take that leap with Him. Use God's Word as your guide. He will keep His promises to you!
