I’ve been so busy with school , work, fundraising and life I realized I haven’t left much God time in there . And tonight I was feeling the effects, I felt worn down and confused about what God really wanted me to do with all the things on my plate . As I sat there feeling slightly defeated and telling a friend that I needed to change my schedual to allow more Jesus time I got the news!
She informed me that my account was at 400$ , which I answered with a “no it’s not , don’t joke about that stuff !” Then I saw it , there in my account were donations from complete strangers who felt it on their hearts to give. I guess you could say this made me slightly emotional (i sobbed for a ridiculous amount of time ). I was so amazed at what God had just done , he allowed me to spend time not focusing on him to see that even when I’m not completely focused on him , he is still completely focused on me. I see that he wanted to remind me of that now .
as for the anonymous donations , thank you , thank you , thank you… Thank you for supporting this crazy journey , thank you for believing in me even when I don’t know if I believe in my self , and thank you for listening to God when he put it on your heart to give to someone you don’t know . It has opened my eyes even more to how amazing God is and that’s he’s got this .
i guess you could say financial stress is one of my big stressors , I’m feeling differently about that now . And I know some people might think , well it’s only $400 and you have $16000 to raise . To them I say , it’s $400 in the right direction , but more than that it’s a reminder from God not to doubt him . To trust that he’s called me to this and he will provide. But also to cherish those small /ginormous victories . And honestly this is a really big one for me!
Thank you to all those who have kept me in their prayers , it means so much to me to have the support I’ve been lucky enough to have .
Matthew6:31-32 Therefore do not be anxious, saying’ what shall we eat?’ Or ‘what shall we drink?’ Or ‘what shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and you Heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
Philippians 4:19. And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus .
