Lining Up For Abundance or an "Oh Well" Life

I seem to have stopped sleeping. Trust in the Lord with all thy heart, with all thy mind and with all thy soul. I am leaning on that these days, but anxiety sems to be winning out...another zanax night.

We did find and purchase our bank owned home, but it took all of our retirement account to do it. Now we are down to fumes in the money department and neither my huband or I know how it's going to all play out. We have sold alot of our possesions, so the ebay thing has kinda dried up. I'll bet alot of people are a bit sleepless these days.

Our big challenge right now is to get a working air conditioner into the new house. It's really a necessity here in FL in the summer time. People keep trying to scam us, want to sell us a new unit instead of fixing the old one. One person actually wanted us to steal a unit from an abandoned house nearby so he could install it. The world has gone crazy but we can't continue to support 2 homes.

I said to my husband recently that it's turning into an "oh well" life these days. The starter doesn't work on the Sebring. "Oh well", we'll park it and use the mini van. The wipers died on the mini van. "Oh well" we won't drive in the rain. The list goes on.

Need a small miracle here and I have to remember that ALL things are possible with God. I live in abundance and that abundance has no end, no conditions. I am surrounded by a loving (and yes, stressed) family. But how grateful I am for them and all that we have. We will perservere. What are the alternatives?

We all live in abundance. Blessings to all who are struggling right now. And blessings to the creatures of the Gulf Coast. I hold you all in my prayers.
