On the Road Again



In June, 2014, I went car-less.  It was a liberating experience.  I live on a bus line and the grocery store on the same line so shopping was easy.  Getting to and from church was easy as well, just time consuming.  It took just over an hour each way.

At the end of May, 2017, I purchased a vehicle.  It was time to have greater mobility again.  With some family and friends out of the area, it has made visiting easier.  I’m also transitioning to other living accommodations in the near future and having a vehicle will help with this adjustment.

Downsizing

I have been praying for a few months about selling my car.  I decided to sell it and have such peace about it that I know the Lord has spoken to me.  I have put in on the ‘marketplace’ where I work and also where my sister’s.  I have parked the vehicle and am using public transportation (bus) and walking.  I have faith that the right person will come along and purchase this vehicle.

It is one less material item that I won’t have to worry about the monthly payments, gas and maintenance on.  It is rather freeing  :~)

I humbly request prayers for the sale of the vehicle.  I am hoping to receive what I still owe the bank and if I get extra it will go to savings and other debt.  Although I haven’t done a Dave Ramsey class, I know those who have and have chatted with them about the ‘extra proceeds’ I may receive and the steps Mr. Ramsey suggests.
