Shouldn't this about Chelsea be in the "greatest threats to the world" thread?
Chelsea Clinton to run for Congress
- Thread starter Roger Lococco
- Start date
Of course- most of us have. It's just a lot easier to love and appreciate people when you aren't stressed out about paying the electric bill.
By not having to pay a phone bill?
It's a long story but it was TRULY a gift from God. I'll tell y'all later. Got to run right now. 
Does it involve a guy who makes guitars and dives dumpsters?
Yes but was waiting until I can use my laptop. It's too much typing on this stinking phone.
Welp...my education didn't cost a dime...my truck did. But I was a redneck looooooong before either.
I was born in Richmond.
I know, I know. I've spent a lifetime trying to live it down. Some stink just never washes off.
Okay, finally at my laptop. I'll try and keep this short because I hate getting the TL
R crap LOL.A few years ago, the FIRST time Obamacare cost me my job, I went through some serious financial struggles. At that time, my kids were living at home and costing me a fortune, they were still in school and so I tried adjusting things in my income just to get by while I looked for another job. I ended up wrecking my Camry and did not have the insurance coverage to fix the car, so I ended up selling my wrecked car...struggled for a while, was engaged and after a while I realized I wanted changes in my life, I was not wanting to marry this man because I realized we were just too far apart on important things but decided to pray about things. He was a Catholic and I thought I'd give praying to Rosary a try. I had been told it was a very powerful prayer. I did not see how it could be any more powerful than the way I had been praying before but I am open to trying new things. I prayed the same prayer but this time with the rosary. I prayed for guidance with this relationship I wanted out of and also prayed for another vehicle since I did not have one that was reliable and my kids drove it mostly anyway. I also prayed for the perfect job for me to come my way.
I started going to the Catholic church here and mentioned to a friend there that I needed to get a car soon, new job, etc. I told her I had prayed for a car to come my way that I could afford because I was not working much at that time either. A few days later, I get a call from the Priest that he had heard my story and that he asked if anyone had a car they could sell at a reasonable price to a parishioner. He said someone had a car they wanted to donate to me but he was not sure what kind of car it was. Also, I had a job offer come to me that was paying four times what I normally made. It was a miracle in my eyes. The car that was donated to me was a 2006 Lexus LS430 and it is in immaculate condition too! I almost fainted. I NEVER would have thought about even looking at a Lexus. I literally was thinking about just a little old car that would just get me to the store and back and church and back. God answered my prayer and went BEYOND what I was even thinking about. God showed me that miracles DO happen. God always takes care of us, even the ones that don't believe in God.
I have since learned to hear God's voice inside of me and am tuned into how he guides me. I am now facing job changes again because of Obamacare but this time I have no doubt that I will get through this fine....eventually lol! I actually have a part-time job at Lowe's that I absolutely LOVE and am praying for another great job in the medical field that I work in currently that will accommodate me working at Lowe's and doing that as well.
God guides us to meet certain people in life for a reason. I met the people at the church for a reason, I met Strum for a reason, and I have "met" you guys on here for a reason, we are all connected. All we have to do is learn to love each other well and we will have this thing down!
~love and peace to you all~ xoxoxo

I'm not sure if you're being facetious or not lol. I'm so tired right now, it probably didn't make sense.

I'm not being facetious. It was a great story.
(for future reference, I have adopted a no-sarcasm/facetiousness policy when replying to you so as to avoid any confusion. I am being sincere with this as well in hopes that discourse will remain above board)
Great story. God moves in mysterious ways. I'm in a similar position now and your story gives me hope.
