About changingher

Hello, I am a hard working Mother of three who's lights were turned off and in need of assistance. I work in procurement and logistics, I am paid weekly, my bill is $1,204 from an exsisting bill when I was laid off my job and lost my home as well. I had a very good friend get the lights cut on in his name when I had finally found another job and a place for the kids..I just couldn't come up with the money at the time. My friend found a home and wanted the lights turned off in his name, so my fiance steped up and said hey I can get them in my name. So I gave him all the money that I had, which was over $300 to pay his old bill so that he could cut the lights on. When he called KUB Knoxville, he told them that I would be staying there and they refused to cut the lights on in his name until I pay this $1204 bill. I cant do it! I have  no electricity with a baby in the house. Can trusting God get the lights turned on? PLease someone HELP me...

Desparetly Need help with electric bill

Hello, (Updated no longer need help,please read!)

I am posting this today to see if we can get help with our electric bill. I recieved notice yesterday that if it's not paid by the 23rd of April they are going to shut it off. We have 3 children and my husband has been down with his hip not able to do much. I am on disablity and only draw $550 a month. Our electric bill is $498. I have gotten all of my other bills paid for and was hoping that our electric bill would drop thismonth but with this cold snap we have gotten and a faulty switch on the heater that stopped it from turning off, we got hit with a huge bill. Any help would be greatly appricated and I will return it as soon as I am able, promise. I will also send copies of the bill and where payment has been made to you so you'll know that is what it went for. I wouldn't lie about this, I don't know what we'll do with out electricity. I am trying to sell somethings around the house to help us come up with the money to help pay for it. I thought we would have more time to come up with the money.  We are in desparete need, so if you can help, I promise to pay you back  some how.  God Bless! 

The Lord works in mysterious ways!! A few hours after posting this I found out I won a contest I entered last year. The prize money is more than enough to cover my electric bill. My electric company is going to work with me until the prize money comes in. Thank you Lord! And thank you everyone for your prayers!
