I am full of words lately.
We have been challenged to record prayers and how God answers them for encouragement.
Can I please just say that there have been so many I can remember right off the bat that I haven't even written many of them down?
Mission trip:
Started praying the summer after I served at Camp Eagle in 2010.
Got my hopes up when an opportunity to go spread God's Truth in orphanages in Peru came along but quickly fell through. I found peace with it fairly quickly, it wasn't meant to be and I don't know why. I don't think we will always get all the answers on this side of eternity but it's better that way.
This is when God starts answering, in better timing than I could have expected.
Asia summer project falls into my lap (as I've explained in an earlier post) -Answered!
Then I need $200 for deposit to even start this process. I make my mission letters ahead of the game and send only one out at this point, I get a check to my mission account the day it is due in a result of one letter and MANY MANY PRAYERS. -Answered!
Now as I sit looking at the blinking 'amount owed' section of my mission status page, it's a little overwhelming. In the same area of vision, I also see the stack of neatly written addressed envelopes to people I am praying will commit to being ministry partners with me. They ship out tomorrow. My prayer is also that I will learn along with those praying with me just how vital prayer is. I am so blessed in the ways God has already been listening and am joyfully patient as I know He will not stop now. He will see this through.
...Answer.
