For the few of you who actually read this blog, (thanks!!!) I have found a renter for my place in St Paul. This is truly an answer to prayer. I have been so blessed by so many amazing people who have joined to support me in my pursuit of a life in ministry. This support has been in the form of prayer and money. I raised financial support thinking my place would sell or rent fairly quickly. Well it didn't. I have had to spend much of the financial support I raised for the year in the first 3 months of LDI. Now that I have a renter, I will be in a better place financially to continue moving forward with LDI without having to go back to work full-time. Once again, I have learned how God is faithful, and will provide what we need if we follow Him.
I asked my dad the other day how he thought the recent financial mess would do to missions and other ministries around the world. He kind of shrugged his shoulders, grimmaced a little, and fearfully said, "I don't know. But I know that God will provide what He needs for His kingdom." For those who don't know my dad, he's a rock. There's not much that scares him. He is a true follower of Jesus. He knows that with money being tight around the globe, that ministries will be taking hits. But his faith in God was a reminder to me that God is faithful. I don't know what God has before me, but I know that it's awesome. I also know that He'll provide what I need to do His work! Thanks, God!
