Financial fear

During the past few months, our family has had very little income, and we have been stretching the last of our savings. Last week, my husband has found employment again, with a good prospect of further work to come, and I am thankful beyond words for God's timely provision.

I thought it would be helpful to open the floor to discuss the fear that comes when we realise that that we are at the point of being no longer able to cover our financial commitments.

Have you ever been at this point? How do you cope with unemployment? Or with the fear that drags your heart down in spite of your best efforts to remain hopeful?
