Today, oh today. This has been a day that was undeniably planned by the Lord. Things started out normally enough. I got up and went to work, sat down at my desk and then started to worry. I believe I have inherited this trait from my mother... Sorry Mom, but I think you know it's true. I really worry that I'll have heart problems when I get older if I don't get this stress issue under control. What a vicious cycle! I worry that I worry to much.
Anyway, I digress. But, through two people the Lord encouraged me. I've been telling a lot of people about what I'm doing, and a lot of the time I get blank looks and empty meaningless words. But, today, the sincerity was present when I was approached about Peru when they had heard of what I was doing. I didn't have to say a thing, rather they came to me and were interested to find out more.
I also found hope in relation to earning support. I have only had three definite answers from people saying they would commit to $30 a month for my trip. Only 23 more to go! If you would like to help financially or in prayer please visit my support page. A donate button will be appearing there in the next two days.
The Lord has provided such an awesome amount of support. I hope that I can refer back to this post in the future when I'm not quite feeling supported and remind myself of everyone's prayers. I appreciate everything everyone is doing. You all are a blessing to me and to this mission's trip.
I can totally relate to 'worrying that I worry too much'
ReplyDeleteToday I got a headache (probably from the heat) and I instantly thought it was an aneurysm & then I started to worry and it made me even sicker. it is a vicious cycle.
Anyway, I wish I could support you in this endeavor! but I am so poor. Perhaps I should get a donate page some someone can support me... but I am sure it will workout, and you will be in my prayers.
