DEBT FREE

I'm not a writer by nature..i'm more of a talker.. although at this point in my life i'm not much of that either..i'm more of a get it done or get out of my way kind of person right now..

I struggle with that.. I have some respponsibilities and time constraints that make it the way it is.. but it really isn't what I want to be.. but for now it is..   soon however I will be able to be more of the talker.. and maybe the writer...

we (my wife and I and the kids by default) have been on a debt free plan/kick /budget for almost two years now.. We are getting close... we should have everything but the truck and the house  paid for in about 6 months..  that my friend is a great thing...

The journey has not been easy and it won't get any easier once we get to the goal...

We have lived within our means for two years... no credit cards.. no loans( well we did consolidate some when we first got started).. whatever we made that is what we have spent.. no more and unfortunately not a whole lot less..
 but we are getting close...

its kind of interesting though.. we have done more..traveled/ actually vacationed more now than we did when we didn't do this... intriguing to say the least.. 

not to say that money isn't tight... unexpected bills really throw a wrench into the plan.. but we are on the journey..the goal is that in 5 years.. when I am 50.. that we will have no debt... no house no cars nothing.. and that we will have the savings to retire when we are ready.. can it be done.. I think so..  when we started two years ago i had over  $50,000 in debt outside of the house...  we are now down to aprox $35,000.. the majority of that is my truck...

its coming.. someday soon.. I will have my debt free friday.. I WILL!

but that is nothing compared to the debt that Christ paid for me on the cross.. It truly was a debt that I could not pay.. He took it upon himself..to pay my/our debt... and how? He died on the Cross for our sins,  He did it for us.. but.. there is one requirement to have your sin debt paid off..
 Do you know what it is?
It's very simple....

YOU have to ask..
