But you see that’s the thing, I can’t. As much as it ‘s about me… It’s really NOT about me. This is about Gods provision not Beth’s. I struggle folks, having faith financially is hard. It’s so hard. Everyday yes EVERYDAY God shows me who’s in control, and who is the giver and provider of all. Somedays it’s by finding $9.35 in the community washer/dryer and some days it’s seeing that an anonymous donor gave $100 online! He may use YOU to strengthen my trust in his provision or maybe reading this blog will strengthen your faith in Him. We are not left to do life alone. We are never alone, as brothers and sisters in Christ it’s our job to lift one another up. I pray to lift you up through His work in me, my journey on the race and my exciting journey to raise $16,254 in Jesus name. Yep in Jesus name, may his will be done, and may I see everyday how fearfully and wonderfully I am made.
I have made you, I will carry you, I will sustain you and I will rescue you.
Isaiah 46:4
I am not alone!
Will you help me go?
Its June 2, we have less than 15 days to raise almost $3,000 to reach my 1st financial deadline on June 15th! Will YOU support me? Please prayerfully consider helping me serve the nations through the World Race! You donation WILL make a difference to every soul I come in contact with. Every street kid I meet in Nicaragua, every woman who is forced to sell her body for a living in Thailand, every special needs child in the children’s home of Cambodia, every lost gypsy I meet in Albania and every abandoned baby I hold in the orphanage in Swaziland.

Then I heard the voice of The Lord saying,
“whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”
And I said, “Here am I. SEND ME!”
