Ladies Luncheon
This weekend I have the privilege of participating in the missions conference at my grandma's church. Along with teaching the kid's Sunday School hour tomorrow morning and then sharing in the evening service, I was able to share my heart with a group of ladies today, including many prayer warriors. These ladies wanted to know specific, personal prayer requests they could be praying.
One of the things I was able to share was from this week:
I had been discouraged on Tuesday about my monthly support, not knowing how I would get to 100% by December 13, AIM's financial clearance date for me. My friend exhorted me to spend extra time in God's Word and prayer which I was able to do Wednesday and Thursday. I could feel God changing my attitude and focusing me in a better direction.
Support raising is not dependent on my efforts. If I try in my own strength I will fail, but if I depend on Him and look to Him to provide, He will - in His time and in His way. And He is: one person, one contact, one connection, one answered prayer at a time. Like a phone call I received Thursday night which could lead to a 20% addition towards my monthly support. All I can do is give glory to Him.
Sharing that and other things with the ladies at the luncheon today was a blessing. It was a wonderful time of fellowship and felt very personal, welcoming, and encouraging.
Thank you to all who attended and who have, are, and will continue to lift me up in prayer.
