"it's red!"

Looking for a house is not as fun as people think. People are trying to sell you their bag of goods while the bank tries to convince you to to get a larger loan. It is disheartening especially when a luxury car is worth more than what you can afford but I came prepared. I had taken first time home buyers classes and talked to a loan specialist. He was impressed at what I knew and I would not let him approve me past my budget. This is a very serious investment not to take lightly but I'm also letting Abba handle it. Abba knows what we need even before we ask.
Back in May 1997, I started talking to my mom about getting my own car after I graduate in June and go full time at work. I was set on getting a Geo Tracker. She was talking to me about God helping me get a car. I said "yea your right He can, but it can't be red." She said "accept what he gives you." I said "yea but it still can't be red" A few days later, driving home Yeshua says "so what if it is red?"grumbling under my breath I said "I guess I'll have to accept it if it is red." I went to many dealerships and they pretty much laughed at me. Saying you can't get one unless its new. I couldn't afford a new one. I told my mom what they said and she said "come down with me where I got my car." She wouldn't take no for an answer. I went and the sales person explained they are very hard to get because the owners don't give them up, we sell them as fast as they come in. He tried to sell me another car but my heart was set on a Tracker. A week later my mom says let's go back and see what they have. I didn't want to go but knew I should go and honor her. When we arrived, the same sales person ran out of the building waving his hands telling us one just came in on the truck. It was in the car wash getting ready to be detailed, marked & tagged. I was so excited. I asked the color and he said maroon. They brought it out and the first thing I said was "it's red!" it looked exactly like the color of my fire truck when the sun hit it. The Tracker came from Canada and the person who owned it had low miles and it was also fully loaded. The car looked almost brand new. I barley could afford it with what I made at Caldors. My mom said we can help and cosigned with me. Then my father passed away 4 months later. I had to take over the bills. I asked Abba I need to make at least 10 an hr to pay the bills. I started at my new career job in Jan. at 10.00 hr. Then my mom lost her job. I don't know how I got thru it but I know Abba provided.
So this time around I'm going to trust and no matter what If Abba wants me to have a house, I'll have it.
