I am GRATEFUL for great advise and listening to the spirit!

Gratitude Journal Entry # 53

Ok...So this year has been a crazy expensive year for us. So we decided to take Dave Ramseys advise and Sell Everything that we can and get out of Debt!! So we decided we don't need three cars, kind of silly really, so we put our Suburban up for sell on Craigs list on Wednesday night and Sloane was worried about the price thinking it would take him forever to sell it. Then not even an hour later he got a call and then an hour later after that the Suburban was SOLD!! Crazy but huge blessing and we got what we wanted out of it, then the same night we put my treadmill on craigslist and with in an hour after that it too was SOLD! WOW, we felt like the lord was truly blessing us. Now we want to sell the car and then by an inexpensive minivan so we will have a big van and a little van, why so many vans? Well, Sloane has to have a larger vehicle for hauling his boxes for deliveries at schools for work. By selling the car and the Suburban, we are paying off some debt. Dave Ramsey's advise is to put eveything that you don't need on craigslist and sell, sell, sell, sell so much that your kids think that they are the next thing to be put on craigslist (that won't happen I love them too much!:) Since we decided to do this I have noticed the hand of the lord helping us, I even have noticed that when I need something like diapers ect. they have been on great sells and groceries too, what a blessing when you are trying to do what is right!
