Not Enough Money

Posted By: Vincent E Stokes II on August 17, 2005


I leave for school on Saturday and I still don't have enough money. I applied for several private stuent loans but they all denied me, because I have no credit?! I just applied for another alternative loan today, so I pray they give me some cash if they don't back to the drwaing board. For all those out their that know a prayer PLEASE whisper one for me also.
PEACE

I will definitely be pryaing for you sweetheart. I mean, I was in that same situation last week! I have credit but not enough history. And I didn't have anyone I could use as a cosigner. But thanks be to God, one, only one, student loan (sallie mae) approved me. It's going to work out ok? Let go and let God. Give it all to Him and allow him to work it for you. That's what I had to do. Once you totally give it to him, then you're allowed to feel free. Just keep that faith.

Isaiah 55:1.
I walked off the streets (if you feel me) and went to Florida A&M without a dime in my pocket. I was not a saint, but the same faith covers the just and the unjust. Just ask Jer 33:3 and this scripture is just for young folk (all under 40); Isaiah 40:28-31. It has been one of my favorites. Lastly the greater the adversity, you must be really pissing off the devil. That must mean a Blessing higher than most, if you realize it.
"God" Bless
by the way, the average student deals with the same problems or similar, I realize this is you, but guess what ya'll? There are a whole bunch of folk with college degrees.

I will definently say a prayer for you, but you don't have ANYONE who will co-sign on a loan for you?? That's all you need and you'll be set. I hope that this current loan comes through for you, but if not, go to someone you know who you who believes and trusts in you and ask them for help. you could maybe even sign some type of private contract between the two of you before you go apply for a loan together. Regardless, don't let financial struggles get in the way f reaching your goals. it all work out, just keep he faith!!
