Money, money, money, mmmmoney....mmmmmoneyyyyy! Yet again that is what God has been talking to us about. Well not JUST money , but it's been one of the main subjects. You see Ryan's entire family (including his younger single brother) all make quite a lot of money. None of them have had to go through school and deal with the hard times of being a student with kids. They don't really understand our lives and the fact that we have very little cash. And we on the other hand don't understand their lives, and what it feels like to not have to think about whether or not you have enough money to buy milk. Anyway long story short we felt very out of place on our trip. Don't get me wrong they didn't do anything to make us feel "poor", it was just painfully obvious at times that we are broke. The first two days it was really hard not to feel stupid and in some way "less" than everyone else. But God soon snapped us out of it, we knew we were being brat's. Feeling sorry for our selves. How sick! Look how much we are blessed! Two awesome children, healthy and smart. A warm place to sleep, and we haven't starved to death yet. God is amazing. I feel so honored that he would make a point of teaching us that cash is really nothing. He will give us what we need and at times much more! So our trip was a great learning experience an emotional roller coaster, and like I mentioned in my last post,much too long.
