Well on the way there, my tooth began to get sore. (I have a long history with bad teeth and root canals.) Well needless to say, by the time we got back, I couldn't wait any longer. I went to the dentist, and of course, I needed another root canal. Well, if you don't know, root canals are very expensive. We do not have dental insurance, and so we always have to rely on God to pay for them. In the past, our church has taken love offerings for us, we have done payment plans, and the tax stimulus last summer provided a ton of work on my mouth. Well wouldn't you know, God knew we were going to need the money, and the money set aside for the kitchen was more than enough. Well, thank goodness my tooth went bad, because the car also broke down, and we discovered that our house payment was going up by $160 a month. If we had spent the money on the kitchen, we would have had to go into another payment plan, and with the extra house payment , we wouldn't have been able to afford the extra monthly bill.
So again, after some tears and mourning over the loss of my earthly dream of a new kitchen, I was able to see that God is on his throne.
Habakkuk 2:20 (New International Version)
20 But the LORD is in his holy temple;
let all the earth be silent before him."
Enough said!
