Debt Diet Update

Ok so I have finished the budget for June and as of right now we will pay off our 2nd car and start on our last debt.....my student loans. Which we are on target to pay off in 4 months.....then WE ARE DEBT FREE........ It is so exciting to see things getting paid off and the feeling is amazing. This is really how God has intended us to live....free....and part of that freedom is financially. To have the burden lifted of the lingering debt is an amazing Blessing.

It is so true that we as americans in this sinful world tend to want and need what is not essential and as we dig ourselves into a mountain of debt we end up working for years to pay for things that we just had to have 2 years ago. We end up allowing money to rule our lives....we work because we have to make X amount of money to pay the bills. Is this truly the Abundant life that God had inteended for his children? As Andrew and I have gone on this Debt diet we have had a chance to see how we let money rule our lives and taking back control and allowing God to show us how to be free is so amazing. 9 months ago and 30,000 dollars in debt I never thought we would be here....at this point and only be 4 months away from Financial freedom. God is good.....and he continues to do more than we can ever ask or imagine.....
