A stirring has accord deep within beckoning me beyond the
borders that have ensnared me, and kept me from reaching out in faith and love.
Why do I not turn to God’s people? Why do I doubt that they would offer their
prayers and their money to support a random missionary who they do not know? Why
have I ever thought that I was undeserving to receive?
This is actually one of the battles I am fighting out here
on the “mission field”. There is something within me that is able to give
freely to others and to bless them, but when others try to bless me I feel
undeserving. Logically, I know that I deserve what the Lord is trying to bless
me with through others. However, something inside of me halts at the thought of
having others care for and love me in this way.
Recently, I went through deliverance of my finances, and with
deliverance from that came a freedom from other things. Accepting and receiving
things now is not nearly as hard as it was before. I am growing, I am changing,
I am finding my identity in Christ, and know that I deserve to be blessed. It
is not always easy and I hear the Lord whisper, “This is my gift to you.” With
that I open my heart to receive from him through his people.
Fully I trust and know that this race is where the Lord has
called me, and that I have to fully rely on him convicting the hearts of
readers such as yourself to give from your soul. He has convicted me to sit
back and receive. Much easier said than done, but He is giving me an
opportunity to see him through you. What an amazing gift to see the Father!
Let me encourage you and let you know, that when you give a
gift it isn’t forgotten. Your name doesn’t go unnoticed (unless you click anonymous).
Your gift is noticed. You are prayed for. You have partnered with me in the
Kingdom and that is not overlooked. Many praises and petitions for blessing on
your behalf are offered up. Every gift from $1- $1000 is a crucial part to
keeping our ministry alive and well.
Thank you for wanting to be a part of the ministry/journey
with me. I thank the Lord for using you to change the world and bring his
kingdom to earth. There is still ground to be covered. (7 months worth to be
exact.) Great things are taking place on a daily basis. Most of them are so
small that I don’t even notice them until our contact points them out and
assures us of the impact that we are having. We are making a difference.
Amount needed to be raised: $5,031. You can click here to
donate.
Please pray about your partnership. This is an immediate
need to keep me on the race, and whatever part you are called to play: whether
it is prayerful or financial is greatly and desperately needed. If there is
anything that I have learned out here it is that I can do nothing from my own
strength, but only by the strength and grace of our Lord.
Philippians 4:13
