1Thes. 5:24 God will make this happen, for He who calls you is faithful.
We have had a busy month of moving, packing, unpacking, sorting and organizing for this journey to Africa. Amidst all the craziness we continue to meet with individuals telling our story and raising support. We (mostly me, Janine), start to doubt we will ever be able to reach our goals with support. We are so used to relying on our strengths and our own works to take care of ourselves financially. Relying on others does not come naturally.
Raising support surely has its ups and downs.
On one of our down days, thinking 'this support raising task is just to big, we aren't seeing any results, commitments are not coming in, etc'.... in this moment of discouragement we decided to pray. God quickly responded to our plea! Not even 10 minutes later, a friend contacted us asking if they could support us. Imagine that! We had not met with them or asked for their support. Amazing!! Why did we ever doubt?! Why didn't we pray earlier? God say's all we need to do is ask. He has been so faithful over and over again!
We know God will supply all our needs and that He will go before us, we just need to be patient and continue to walk in obedience.
We are at about 30% of our support. Bruce is going to a 4 day work week starting the month of November and will be done working December 20th.
Thank you, family and friends, for your love and support, and for making a difference in these little lives with us!!
