The Lord has worked wonders in the last few months in my life. Raising support has been a huge step of faith but the Lord was so faithful and dismissed any doubts I had about me being in Miami. After intial submission of my application, when support was coming slow, I thought that maybe I decided thats is where I wanted to go rather than where the Lord wanted me. As I began to have more and more anxiety about my decision and support for the summer, a student from CRU who I do not even know that well, supported me with a check for $1000!!! In that weekend alone the Lord provided $1,800 to finish the support needed for the trip. I have never felt more sure about anything after that. Praise the Lord! The journey so far has been so encouraging and so amazing and I cannot wait to see what the summer holds for me and the rest of the team!
I would like to ask for your continued support through prayer:
- Please pray that I will open my heart and mind to any and everything the Lord is going to reveal to me this summer. That I seek Him first and make Him the first priority in my life and that I find my delight in Him.
- Please pray that our team becomes a close group that is able to share life with each other and form meaningful relationships that glorify God.
- Please pray that the hearts of the people of Miami, including the sturdents, tourists, and our future co-workers would be softened and are being prepared for the relationships that will be made and that the Gospel will be shared.
- Please pray that we are all able to get jobs, especially in this time in the economy. Pray that doors will be opened and we will be able to share love and life with our co-workers.
- Please pray that everyone traveling from all over the US will arrive safely, ready for the journey that lie ahead.
- Please pray that we do not lose sight of our purpose or get discouraged, understanding that everything is in the Lord's timing.
