God IS My Provider

I am using this blog to write about how God moves in my life. I figure that miracles happen for God to be able to show just how powerful He is, but if I don't spread the word...what is the sense of working a miracle for me. Today, all of our insurance was canceled without warning. I have been on temporary assistance for over 2 years. I follow the requirements to the letter. I do not lie, cheat or go through any channels that would illegally provide more benefits for us. I do not sell my food stamps. I do not add people just to get extra money and I do not work under the table for cash and still collect welfare. I legitimately have sought employment and am also going through problems due to nerve damage in my neck arms and hands. I have severe carpal tunnel and have had surgery postponed a few times due to other illnesses and family issues.

We go through recertification every year and we just went through a new one last month. I have received no notifications from Social Services that there is an issue. Now today out of the blue I receive a letter for me and my children that Social Services has informed the insurance we are no longer eligible and in turn the insurance company has canceled our policies effective February 1. Please note today is the 3rd and we received no warning whatsoever that we were in jeopardy. My children now have no medication which they need daily. The notice came at the end of the day when social services is closed. Where do you turn? What can you do?

What I used to do was pitch a fit, treat everyone in my family like garbage and sink into a depression so deep nothing short of a whole chocolate cake (or package of oreos) would fix.

Today, while I admit I started out in panic mode, within 10 minutes I turned it over. God must be doing something. Satan may be trying to send me into a tailspin, but this time I'm going to stomp all over it. Would a loving God allow my children to become ill? No. Can this be fixed? Nothing is impossible with God. Am I angry.... OH YEAH!!! I have decided to focus my anger where it belongs.... Satan. Tired of his control over my emotions, I am endeavoring to face this latest issue with peace and even joy....

I will post back with what God does during this time because I KNOW it will be something amazing. I ask that anyone that reads this post please be kind enough to pray for us during this time. I do not have a job, nor do I have any income. If our benefits are canceled it would be scary. I believe once again God is asking me to trust that He can provide for us more than the Government or a job.

Blessings to all!!!
