I’m writing this with a heavy heart and overwhelmed spirit as I’m processing my reality here in the Philippines. The reality I see when I’m spending time with street children who are 11 and begging for food and money when they should just have a loving home with parents caring for them. While processing how I can possibly do more to love these children I come to the reality regardless my best efforts I can’t fully change the circumstances these children are in,that’s totally up to God. The last few days I’m especially reminded of the willingness needed in trusting Gods plan and not my own with not only witnessing the children but also my personal circumstances as well. The closer I get to December 1 st the more anxious I become in spirit as my next financial deadline approaches. Just when that anxiety creeps up God reminds me how his plans are unseen and prayer is my best weapon to curb anxiety. So what does this all have to do with you? Well glad you asked, A lot actually because I need your prayer, in fact your prayer could be the life blood keeping me here on the race through the next 8 months. James 5:13 reads” Is any among you afflicted? Let him pray.What I am asking from you is your prayers!
My next financial deadline is December 1st and as of today November 24 I’am $2,800 short of meeting my mandatory goal! My goal for December 1 st is $11,000 and right now I stand at $8,200. So prayer is what will move this goal, I ask as you pray to seek The Lord ,if you are to partner with me and reach this goal. I have intentionally sought after loved ones who care about this missions and the work going on in the kingdom. On top of praying please consider (prayerfully of coarse) donating $28.00. If 100 people decide to accept this challenge of $28 my goal would be met!If this deadline is not met, after reaching out to supporters and love ones it will be necessary for me to leave the race.My December goal will be followed by only one more goal in March to follow to reach my final goal of $16,250.
I m so thankful for the past three months here on the race and firmly know this is where I’am suppose to be. Part of this struggle for me is writing this letter and asking continuously for your support. But the good word also says to ask of the Lord in faith and you will receive.So in my faith I’am asking you to pray for my deadline and in your prayer ask if giving is what you can do! Thank you for reading this letter and keeping up with my journey, I’m thankful for all who are supporting me.If you have any further questions or concerns please don’t hesitate to ask me!
In Christ
Jenna
