 Last year, we posted this plea for help:

"We really need your help!  We are in serious dire straits!!  We are being evicted from our apartment and have no place to go!  We are 4, going on 5 months behind in rent, our power is getting cut off on Wednesday, and I will lose this internet connection on Tuesday!  I'm running out of groceries, and my kids need clothes and supplies for school which starts on Aug. 20th.  In spite of my efforts to secure a full-time job, it's just not enough.  Please help us!!! Somebody, please!"

Though there was no influx of money or someone offering us a place to rent for less than what we were paying, or offering to help us with a couple of bills, we still maintained our faith in God that He will see us through all of our trials and life situations.  We are happy to post this testimony that God is there and that since this time, we have secured a new place to live (however temporary), we both secured good-paying jobs and are managing, though tightly to make it one day at a time.  We do, at every chance that we can, help people who are in need.  We don't have 100s or 1000s or millions to assist, believe me, if we did, we'd share it!  Sometimes the greatest help comes in the form of testimony of God's awesome miracles!  I know this doesn't seem like much to some, but it has meant the world to us.  Keep your faith!  BELIEVE!!!!  Take a deep breath, exhale slowly and go to bed knowing you have done all you can do for that day, and start fresh in the morning.  God Bless and Good Luck!  and please share your stories!
