Hey, so today was cool. lol.
First thing that happened was Children's Sunday school. I got to officially meet some of the kids since I got there a little early. haha... Then we had a lesson about Matthew 5:4 Blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted. We should mourn for the evil in the world and pray for God to be working His salvation in great ways. Then, downstairs, CC told me she had sent her support letter to her support coach. And I said "wow, you're way ahead of me" which she then flipped on me saying "you've only got 10 days to raise ___!" Wow. Eyes open now. lol. I kinda forgot about that deadline. lol.
The other day, yesterday actually, when me, DL, AO and JB met up to do a Bible study thing, one thing that we talked about was really truly trusting in God, like not making back up plans for when God doesn't come through, but to trust that He will, because He can and will come through when we trust Him for those things. One specific example was support raising for a project. You are praying for God to provide the funds, but are also planning to take out a loan if the money doesn't come through..? That doesn't show any faith in God.
Well, just a couple hours ago I was at work and I put two and two together.
I had been support raising to go to Urbana after Christmas and I had been praying for God to come through. I had a lot of people to email and talk to and contact. But then Support raising for Haiti was coming along and it was basically like I had a week to get the remaining amount, which was quite a large percentage of the cost. I really had not sent enough personal emails. With time running low I was getting desperate. I had a few more shifts at work last week than normal. I thought, "oh, God must be providing for this through my finances", but then of the few emails I had sent God supported me fully through a few supporters.
Even though I was ready to rely upon my works, and just forget about what I had asked for, God still came through and there's so much more I am thinking right now about the future, but in everything to praise Him for what He has done in answering prayers and providing our every need in Him.
Ttyl.
