Jehovah Jireh - God our Provider

Just last week I was rambling about how I had to pay taxes to the tune of fifty thousand pesos. And I'm just about ready to pay that too, slowly of course over the course of the next few months. Saying goodbye to what's left of my measly paycheck.

I was budgeting what was left of my money and trying to distribute them to the different bills I had to pay from the electricity bill to house loan to phone bills and house help. But whatever I did, there just wasn't enough to go around. I had succumbed to the idea that I'll just try to make up for it next month. Being late in paying my bills isn't something I'm pleased about, but I'm even more uncomfortable with borrowing money from other people. By far I think the latter is worse. I decided that in time I will be able to pay for all my bills, late as they may be. Better late than never right?

But just the other day I got a pleasant surprise when in the mail I found a check from Google for my Adsense earnings in the last few months. I had forgotten all about it, but God just had it for me in time to pay the bills for this month. It's enough. That's all I have to say. With the amount that just arrived, it's just the exact amount to add to what's left of my salary to be able to pay for this month's bills.

Indeed God is our Provider. He has never failed me. Thanks Lord
