Urgent Update:

I picked up a certified letter from the post office today and the mortgage company foreclosed on my home, it was sold at auction, and their attorney sent me an eviction notice. I never thought I'd be making a post like this but here I am. No, I don't have anywhere to go, I'm facing homelessness. But I know God will make a way where there seems to be no way. He's done it before and he'll do it again. Jesus, I will continue to trust you no matter what because I know you! I know you are good, and I know you love me. And I know that wherever I go you will be right there with me just as you always have been.
