A Post In Which God Shows His Presence to Me...Again

Yikes, it's been over a week since I've posted. I've been very busy working on my internship application stuff and I also had a stupid weekend class. I hate weekend classes. Anyway. So I've been in this mopey-boohoo-poor-me-life-is-so-hard kind of place lately due to life circumstances and some things that I feel I need that I don't have. This has been one of those times where God feels really far away, you know? As you may or may not know, I've been hoping to go with my friend A., a high school Spanish teacher, as a chaperone when she takes some students to Mexico next summer. I've never been out of the country before. I've been saving in an ING account where I couldn't see the money and would therefore forget about it. I don't have loads of extra money, but lately I've been saving all of my work study money for this trip. I wanted to purchase the trip package before the end of the year when the price goes up again. Today I checked my ING account to see how much money I lack, and the total is $640. Then I calculate how much money I can make at work study between now and the end of the year. The total is, you guessed it, $640. And that was totally a moment where God was like "Hi, Tessa. Remember Me? Almighty God? Right, the One that provides for your every need. And even most of your wants. Well, guess what, I'm still providing for you. And I'm not planning on stopping any time soon." It was a very nice and much needed reminder. And I wonder if I will ever get it enough so that I don't need these reminders. Probably not while I'm still on Earth. ;)
