Debt is really, REALLY enslaving. Ask me about it. I have struggled with a certain debt for 2+ years now...and it seems very very hard to get out of it. Now i should have known better and NOT gotten into it in the first place. But further to that, i should have used the sale of a certain asset in my possession at the time to significantly reduce the debt. But I was foolish, something I am paying for now (literally).
The only way that I think I can do it now is to sell off my car, a most uncomfortable prospect seeing as it has now become an asset to my wife's business. And then there is the issue of when we get pregnant...
If there was ever a time I needed Gods wisdom, it is now. I have prayed alot on this issue due to the effects debt has on your spiritual walk. I have been unable to tithe completely so far, and thus feel denied of huge spiritual gifts. True I shifted the debt to a lower paying loan instrument, but it remains an eye-sore on the monthly budget, straining every other item in its wake.
Now I feel God telling me to rest in His peace, and that it will all work out, and that I do not have to run to and fro, and fret and worry, that it is all taken care of.
