Hang on..

Below is a quote I read today by Maria Fontaine that encouraged me..

I've just taken on 2 part-time jobs & am looking into a 3rd 1..trying to save up for a vehicle, getting set-up here in the States, hoping to get my own place, get into some colleges to enhance my studies over the next months, etc.. the challenges are ever-present, large & looming..but that's where faith comes in.

The Lord is taking us deeper into the spirit world all the time and requiring us to keep stretching our faith. He says, “Wherever you’re at in your faith life, you can be sure that I’ll stretch you further. And that’s a good thing!” I’ll repeat what the Lord said: Stretching our faith is a good thing! It doesn’t feel so good sometimes when the Lord stretches us, but because we know that it’s good, we can really praise the Lord for those experiences
when they present themselves!

(Link 61, paraphrased)
