Financial Peace

As you know, Travis and I have been working hard to become debt free.  This past month, we paid off our Menards credit card!!  Yay!  It's a small step, but feels so good!!  We now only have 3 more debts to pay off- my vehicle loan and two student loans.  If we stick to our budget (which we have done amazingly well at lately) then my vehicle will be paid off in January and then we will tackle those blasting student loans.  Financial peace, here we come!! 

Peace.. "Freedom from disturbance, quiet and tranquility" (Google Dictionary Definition).  Financial Peace.. No worries about making it to pay day.  Living up to our full potential due to not having financial restrictions.  I love this guy's definition of financial peace:

"- n. a condition where one does not have to continuously worry about their ability to meet their financial obligations; they have financial peace
- adj. a position where one is financially set; that couple has a financial peace mindset
- n. a financial position that allows one to pursue doing exactly what they were made to do regardless of its income potential; because he has financial peace, he is able to pursue his dream of being a major league baseball player even though he never even played high school or college baseball"

Amazing.  I can't wait until Travis and I are able to experience that kind of peace in our lives!  Please pray for our continued strength and determination in meeting our financial goals.  God bless,
Alicia
