As you all know, one of my biggest prayer requests has been for financial support. But once again the Lord has been working in His own ways…
I am still way under my monthly goal – so I am not yet able to start receiving a paycheck and am still living off of savings. Yet the Lord is faithful…
Over a month ago I was able to move into the Barnes’ basement. In return for helping do maintenance and help care for one of the daughters when the parents are overseas, Kim (my basement buddy) and I have a place to live while we continue to support raise!
Although I have learned how to get around without having my own vehicle, it really isn’t all that enjoyable (my independence and pride have had enough of the begging). One of the World Racers that I met last year is leading a trip to Swaziland for the summer and has offered to let me use her car while she is over seas! All I have to do is pay for gas!
I know for some people these may seem like people just ‘being nice’. But you have no idea what a blessing it is!!! These may not be the ways that I would have expected or even wanted the Lord to answer my prayers, but He is answering my prayers and continuing to be faithful.
Yet even as I give Him praise for what He is doing, you will notice that it is people that He is using. The Barnes and Tana both knew of my needs and found a way to help meet them. And let’s face it I am still in need… I currently only have about 12% of my monthly support pledged, and only about a months worth of support in my AIM account. I ask that you would please pray about supporting me and then click on the contact me button and lets talk. Even if you can’t support me financially at the moment shoot me an email or comment and let me put you on my support list to receive personal updates. I finally have a cell phone so can even give you a call and let you know what’s happening … another one of God’s ways of providing the little things : )
You are His daughter and it’s so obvious that GOD LOVES YOU! In everything you do Give Him the Glory, and continue to Praise His Name!
You are my daughter and it is such a priviledge to be a part of your life.
Love,
Mom
Hey, I just found your blog and am thoroughly enjoying reading it. I love how God uses people like you to encourage us to walk by faith and not by sight. I will be praying for your needs and I live overseas and will be home for the next few months in the Atlanta area. I’d love for you to use my car when I’m away again in March. It’s been a great car with some funny stories, but I’d love to bless you with it. Email me and maybe we can talk more soon.
May God bless you beyond your wildest dreams!
Andrea
