FAITH WORKS! - PERSONAL TESTIMONY

Growing up as a young child I never understood why a parent would pay for a child to attend school especially for primary education. I often told myself there are plenty of great public schools and when I have children they will go to one, I am not paying for primary education. I'm sure some of you have heard the saying God laughs when we make plans?

Well, my son started Kindergarten last year and it was a tumultuous experience for him, me and his dad to say the least. Last year I blogged about one of the Charter schools he attended wanting to send him to a mental institution. My mind throughout the entire process was staying in Faith and speaking the Word of God only. I often times laid hands on my child and just spoke the Word over him and I plainly told the demon that was in him that he must flee. See one thing I understood was that my sons school experience was a spiritual battle for me and it could only be won spiritually.

So the end result, my son visited a Catholic School for one day and did well. Nevertheless, his dad felt we should keep him in a public school. I felt the same especially considering, in my mind, my pockets couldn't afford to pay his tuition as I'd just bought a new car. Again, God was laughing. I say that because I speak over myself and my son Romans 8:28 "All things work together for the good of those that love Him according to His purpose."

So where is my son at now the Catholic school he visited. He enrolled about 6 weeks before school ended this year and his entire experience was completely different from the 1st 2 schools he attended. At the time, I only had to pay one tuition payment and thank God I have sense enough to save, I had that money in the bank. When it was time to register for the upcoming school year I paid the registration fee and I had absolutely no clue how his tuition would be paid. What I did know however was that he would be attending the school and his tuition would be paid.

Instead of worrying I had faith in God. Now let me clear that I up, in my mind I sometimes worried but when I spoke I spoke faith and the Word of God. I was watching Creflo Dollar and he spoke about pleading the blood of areas of our lives. So I began pleading the blood over my sons tuition and education. I was watching Bill Winston and he was speaking on Faith, how faith works every time and how there is nothing that faith won't accomplish. How if we have faith and believe, faith always wins and God is moved by our faith and our Words.

So my faith led me to a NACA meeting where I learned how to have my student loans payments reduced based on my income. My faith led me to complete a financial aid form for my sons school. How my faith worked?

Last week I received a new student loan payment, my payment was reduced by 72% and my son was approved for financial aid. So my current student loan payment and my sons tuition is equal to my original student loan payment! Isn't God great?

I didn't try to figure anything out I turned it over to God believing in faith that all was well! And all things have worked together for me and Remington's good! He is in a school that he enjoys, he has made friends and the school has an excellent involved staff and I am an involved parent.

Faith Works....you have to step out on Faith and Believe and not DOUBT....Keep your Eyes on Jesus and don't look at anything else I am a witness that Faith Works! And don't try to figure it out on your own let the Word do the work for you....
