What Is Important?

For the past week, I've been looking at the fact I was going to let my Y membership expire until spring. Not only have many of you expressed their shock that I would do so, but so have the people at the Y because I love to swim.
This morning on my way to the Y, I noticed first that all but one light was green all the way there, and it turned soon after I got there. Then being noon, there is no way my usual parking space would be open as the Y is so active. It was open.
I then started doing a lot of mental arithmetic while I swam for my usual 50 minutes and concluded I could make this work.
If ever God's grace and favor were on me, it was this morning. When I got home and opened the computer, my bank balance came up as low. I have it set to a certain amount I don't want to go under. I calculated that right too. My funds will work to the end of the month, provided I don't spend anything more except at Aldi as necessary.
If and that's a huge IF my son would pay me back what he owes me, that would really help. However, if needed, I have PayPal to help out too in an emergency.
So, my October membership is paid. And in two weeks, I'll pay the November membership as well. Swimming is important to me, and God thinks so too to show me that His blessing and favor is on me to keep it going another month.
Have you experienced God's grace and favor recently? Thanks for reading. I'm going to take care of these notifications before I start work on the book.

Yes, it could have been much worse and I'm glad he's doing better.
Thank you. Yes, there are several ways to pay, monthly, yearly, which is best, but I can't do that by the year, a ten-dip pass, or daily. Monthly works for me, usually.

I am glad that you are able to keep your membership.
Here they offer memberships to everyone, regardless of their income or financial status.
Do they have that policy on your side of the border?
I am off for this week from work, my work was really stressing me out, so I am where I need to be now. And I am thankful for that.

Yes I have.
I just ask God to guild me where he wants me and I do that.

Yes He has shown me how He's working. I have been actively praying for people and I have seen Him moving so much in their lives, it's amazing!! =)
I'm so glad you will stay with the Y since I know you love it.

Glad that you’ve worked it out. Yes, lately I have been having problems with money. But God has sent an angel/instrument. God really is good!
