Reality!! Who needs it??

So, my husband and I came into a little money, which I know was a saving blessing from the Lord.  We had great plans for that money.  Give to the Church, get new floors, fix the yard, get our daughter a new bed, etc.  We were able to get our bills caught up and get some new things.  Then, Sunday, we realized something that made my heard plummet to the ground. We owe people money!!  Lots of it!!  And we totally forgot!!  Oops!

What sunk my heart the most was not that we owed people money, but that it was family!!  My first thought was that generosity is dead!!  how could family help us out and then expect it back???  Then the guilt set in.  How selfish am I to NOT pay them back?  What kind of Christian would that make me?  So, the things that we planned will change.  In conclusion, the thought that has been going through my mind since Sunday is this:  "Reality is like a swift kick in the gut!"

I don't want to be an adult anymore.  Can I just stop?  No?  Just thought I would ask.
