No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly

I don't have the words to express how grateful I am.  Thank you so much for your prayers.  Over the past couple of days, my support has gone from about 57% to 75%.  I find myself in some sort of shock, and then remember that this is what I and you have been praying for. We have prayed for the Lord to provide and to bring in support so that I can go and live and serve in Nigeria.  Thank you for your prayers and encouragement and I look forward to updating you soon!

Lesson Learned

You know when the Lord is teaching you something, and it shows up in all different areas of life? He is teaching me that Christ is enough. He is more than enough. He can calm my biggest fear, lead me in the darkest place, forgive me of my greatest sin. There is an unmatchable peace when I put all of my trust in Him, and allow Him to lead me. I pray that this would be a pattern in my life and yours. I constantly revert back to old habits, but Christ is always there to redirect my steps. In Isaiah 26:3 it says You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you; because he trusts in you. It's right there. The answer is right in front of us. We long for peace in our lives. For things to work out in a good way. In Romans 8:28 it says "And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose." There is something we have to do though. We have to believe, trust, and walk with Him. I pray that you find peace in Christ alone, because He is enough!

Support Event!

Some of the teachers that I work with are putting this together. This will most likely be my last event before I leave. I would love for you to come if you can and you can invite others as well. You can come and go between 7-10 and enjoy dessert and fellowship. I would love to know if you will be there, so they can know an approximate number to plan for.

Right now, I am at 50% of my monthly support! Praise the Lord! Please be praying. I need to start the Visa process soon, and in order to do that, I need to be at 80-85%. Then, before I leave, I need to be at 100% of my support. Please pray that I would not be anxious or pessimistic, but trust that the Lord is at work and will provide in His timing.
