Wondering how I get my Percentage Saved? I use the following equation:
Total Savings / (Total Spent + Total Savings) = % Saved
We got stocked up on toilet paper this week and restocked a couple things in the pantry. Also, we bought a roast for extended family dinner night! Picked up some Jimmy Dean D'Lights breakfast sandwiches, too (for me...my diet!)

We will be donating a pack of toilet paper, some hamburger helpers, and a box of Betty Crocker potatoes this week! The Lord has given us a family to help! For a while I have not felt like the Lord was pulling me in any direction to give, so I have been keeping all donation items, waiting on the Lord's guidance. I'm thankful that I was patient because He brought a special family into our lives and we were able to take and give them 4 grocery bags FULL of food and toiletry items!! I'm so Thankful to be used by the Lord to spread His love. It's all because of Him. He gets all the praise and honor and glory! Without Him....I would be nothing! I always encourage each of you to give of your abundance...There are people hurting and waiting on us (Christians) to reach out and "love" them...Pray and follow the Lord's guidance and I promise you won't be disappointed! God Loves you! I hope you all have a blessed week!!
