The last 2 weeks, I've been blown away by the Lord and his provision. I have been fundraising for my Rwanda/Uganda trip and been abundantly blessed by so many who are supporting me in prayer and/or financially! Each committment to pray and/or give has significance and makes great impact. To all who have committed, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. It makes a difference for me and for the ones I'll meet in Africa. God has been affirming through all of you that He has called me to go and that this IS the time.
I was encouraged when I said yes to trust the Lord to provide. Someone told me, "I think God wants to reveal Himself to you that he is your provider and is going to teach you in that." This definitely happened! My fundraising for Visiting Orphans is complete! In just 2 weeks, I'm fully supported! I want to share just one story with you from this process. A few days after saying yes, I had a dream that a friend gave a specific amount. I woke up and was encouraged but didn't think much of it. That morning, I received an email from that friend letting me know she donated that same specific amount. I didn't connect the dots right away, but later that morning we were having our team prayer time at work, and it was like a lightbulb went off. God said, "I gave you a dream to show you what I'd provide from that person, and it happened. I'm going to provide for you to go." I was amazed! I know that each person who is supporting me, in prayer and finance, is a story of God providing. I feel my faith has already been stretched and grown and I'm so excited to see what else I'll learn through this trip.
