I had the opportunity to share with the women at our church, Heritage Church, this morning. I shared with them something that God has been showing me- the life changing difference of making praise a priority in our lives. God has been showing me that if I spend more time in praise- start my day by praising him, praising him for being the answer to my needs, praising him for who he is, praising him because he is all I need- my life is changed! God changes me, and I believe he also moves in my circumstances, but most importantly he enables me to be content no matter the situation because I trust in him completely. When I praise him then I know he is good, he is faithful, he is trustworthy, he is powerful- I have nothing to fear!
One of the things I praise God for is being our provider- I know we have needs, and we are asking God to provide for us in miraculous ways this year- and I know that our source ultimately is God. We would like you to believe with us for God to supply an additional $2600 in monthly personal support for our family. In addition to that, if we are going to travel to Rwanda in November we will need the finances for the plane tickets for our whole family- around $8,000.
I am asking God to do big things for us- not to mention what we are asking him to do for the ministry of Ten Talents (we have another blog for that)! :-) But I know that our God is big enough, and part of the reason why I wanted to have this blog would be so that those of you who choose to pray with us for our personal needs can hear us testify of how God meets those needs. I am looking forward to sharing those testimonies with you soon!
Thankful for our God & for you!
