Rob and I have been praying and seeking God's will the past several weeks about the direction that God is leading us in our ministry.  We know that He is a God who answers prayer, and that He is a God that speaks to His people.  This morning several things took place that were "God things." 

 

First, as most of you know, we are trying to raise more support so that I can rejoin Rob with Adventures in Missions.  We are trying to get back on the road to our already supporting churches, as well as visit new churches.  God has given us a passion for missions, and as we partner with AIM, we know that we can bring missions to the doorsteps of the church!  This morning we sent out an email to various churches asking for them to pray with us as we tried to raise enough money to make it to December.  The amount that we needed was $2,000.  Within an hour, one of the pastors emailed us back and said they were sending $500!  That is an answer to prayer!

 

Secondly, I believe that God speaks to us through His Word!  It is amazing when you are reading God's Word and something just jumps out off the page, almost as if God were speaking directly to you.  I use the Daily Light by Anne Graham Lotz as my devotional.  Partially because it doesn't have man's words, only God's.  This morning as I was reading I almost fell out of my seat.  Here is a glimpse: "Show me Your ways, O Lord; teach me Your paths." "Moses said to the Lord, "I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way, that I may know You." And He said, "My Presence will go with you, and I will you rest." He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel." "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." "You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore." "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye." "The path of the just is like the shining sun, that shines ever brighter unto the perfect day."

 

Thank You Lord for Your Word!!!!

 

Have a Blessed day everyone!
