Financial difficulties

Post by Swamper »

Now, normally I wouldn't be asking people to pray that I get money, but I'm almost flat broke, and I drive across town to school five days a week, and I am in desperate need of gas money. I'm asking you all to pray that God will provide.

In Him,
James

I'm praying too.

Well, I have $5 on me at the moment, but that's all, and my bank account is pretty much empty. I haven't given up yet, though.

Do you take a bus Swamper? Is there a bus Available? Is there another Person that you could ride with? Have you thought of Offering a Ride to another person (They can help chip in for Gas)

I don't know of any buses that go to my college. All of my friends who go there have radically different schedules than me, so riding with them isn't really an option...:(

No worries... Possibility of offering rides to other people going that way anyways. Conserve gas and save you money.

Well, I'd like to thank everyone who's been praying for me, as it seems that God has indeed provided for me. A friend from school asked me to go to the school with her tonight to see the movie Hotel Rwanda (she has to do a report on it for her English class, so they showed it at the school for free) and she gave me some gas money afterwards. I am truly blessed to have such great friends. Thank you all once again.

Prayers as well to our musicians. Don't forget some of the greatest people in the Bible were musicians...
The heart cannot rejoice in what the mind rejects as false - Galileo

We learn from history that we do not learn from history - Georg Friedrich Wilhelm Hegel

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things. -Philippians 4:8
