“My God is so big, so strong and so mighty there’s nothing my God cannot do!”
While we always want to believe that, sometimes, as humans, for whatever reason, we begin to doubt.
Sometimes there are things in our way, obstacles that look to big: we need too much money, there’s no way we can get that sorted out before the deadline, this person will never help, they will never approve… it’s just.not.possible. But our God specialized in “not possible” and “just enough, just in time.” Let me tell you the ways I’ve seen Him pull through this year:
— At home, I own a house, a car and have 2 dogs. I was sure without selling the house there was no way I would be able to go and I had no one to take care of my house and dogs. I was sure my mother wouldn’t approve of taking care of them. NOW, I have renters in my house and for the first time am actually making (very little) money from rent! My dogs and car are at my mother’s well taken care of, loved and safe.
— I didn’t have a “church home” and many of my friends are in a similar strapped financial situation or are not believers. How would I ever raise the support needed?
— I’ve never been someone with a lot of money so there was no way I could fund myself. #teachersalary
But our God? He doesn’t care about any of those things. He’s bigger than money and circumstance and he transcends time and all obstacles. All he asks for us to do is have enough guts to ask and to BELIEVE he can and will do it.
All that to say: I AM FULLY FUNDED!! And I have God to thank for that! From here it looked like there was no way but time and time again he pulled through wit just enough just in time.
Although I don’t have a “church home” that didn’t stop him from putting some incredibly dedicated churches in my path. And those churches were full of prayer warriors and people who love to catch up, here stoties aMD see God work.
No job? Not a problem for God. Sonce resigning from my job to pursue the race. He has prvoided for my every need. I didn’t always have what I wanted or the coolest stuff, but all my bills have been paid and I’m not hungry!
So here… while I serve in Costa Rica: a beautiful country, with great ministry and people who seek after God everyday, I am grateful to say I am fully funded aND God brought just enough, just in time.
At home, though, now … I have a new challenge. My house, that I’ve been trying to sell since before leaving, has a leak in the roof. It HAS to be fixed in order for us to have a chance and getting this thing off my hands. The total price tag is right around $3000… a seemingly insurmountable amount from the field with no regular paycheck and no new way to raise funds.
So! Once again I am depending on the Lord for his provision… without it, I may make it back into the states but be hitchiking after that. So I am asking for your prayers, you rhelp and maybe your social media platform? I am using Gofundme hopefully to find some help with this. If you feel called, please donate, share the link, tell your church, pray, pray, pray. I will be praying and thanking the Lord in anticipation of all he can and will do through this.
What a testimony it will be!
