God can work miracles...

I am really shocked, they must check the blogs and see what is written about them. Fortunately, I didn't violate any HIPAA rules (Health Insurance Portability and Privacy Act, or something like that). I know I did mention a cold sore medication, but I said the aide (or who I thought was an aide) picked it up. So I think I am ok...if not, I get sued and fired. And not in that order. :-)

On another note, I am studying for my big exam, and have medical bills and financial problems. But I trust that God will help me. I am doing my part by being as frugal as possible. But tonight I was getting really tired, so I decided to go home early. I decided that if the Dunkin Donuts was open, I would get some coffee and come back, otherwise I would go home and go to bed. So I drove up to the Dunkin Donuts, and as I walked in they were throwing away muffins into this big gray trash can. I told them I wanted a coffee and muffin, and they started filling a bag with muffins (not from the trash can!). They must have given me at least half-a-dozen, and then along with the coffee they charged me $1.75. It should have been around $3.00. I put a dollar in the tip jar and walked out pretty happy. I would have put more, but they were going to throw them out and I have to be really frugal...ok...cheap...until some of my bills get paid off. So I was really happy. God hears our prayers, He knows our needs and before we ask, he answers. He really does. (http://bible.gospelcom.net/passage/?search=Matthew%206:8;&version=31;) So here I was with a coffee and muffins. My cup runneth over. On the way back I gave a muffin to the security guard, and struck up a conversation with him. Isn't it amazing how God works? Another thing is that Sunday my uncle and aunt came over and my aunt gave me $20. Especially with the gas prices so high, that was much needed.

I want to stress that I am not in poverty. I chose to live this way because I need all the time I have to study, therefore I work part time. And my medical bills are what have really pushed me over into this situation. But, I leave that in God's hands as well. More later...
