Just Another One of Those Days(No Sense In Worrying)

As of tomorrow the our phone service is going to be off and we have fallen behind on the power bill, Since the holidays are approaching things with us have been tough only just a hand-full of people know how we feel. The cupboards are bare and empty there is hardly any food to eat, My little three year old son tells me that he is hungry I then must get up and try to find him something to eat. Thank God he loves peanut butter sandwiches! if he did not we would be in trouble, Thank God he even loves ham and bologna sandwiches! if he did not we would be in serious trouble. My husband needs to have a root canal but the procedure is just so expensive! He has opted instead for the dentist to just go on ahead and pull the tooth out that way it will not be so expensive. But, he still cannot come up with the needed cash therefore, he has to wait until another time, I do not know for how long our family can continue to last because we are really experiencing some hard times. We are still doing without running water in our home it has been off for a year and two months now, I do not know when my husband is going to get running water back in our home but I tell you what, having to haul water is wearing my body down. The times may seem so bleak and uncertain but at least we are facing everything head on as a family, The Lord above will eventually ease the weight of our burdens just as long as we pray to Him and just continue to believe. There is no use in me sharing any tears there is no use in me getting all riled up and mad, All I need to do is just take in a deep breath and just deal with the situation that is at hand. It is not going to be like this for always things are going to look up soon, Straight ahead of us are much better days and they are coming upon us real soon. Just one of those days, no sense in worrying because everything is going to be all right.
