Haiti Update

I just wanted to share a little this morning. First of all I can't tell you all how excited I am about my upcoming trip to Haiti and how awesome it has been to see God work!!!
I admit that I have had some fear of not getting the funds to go and of having a lot of road blocks come up which is sin. We've been in a sermon series at church and just recently one of the sermons was on worry and anxiety which both involve fear. Matthew 6:25-34 Clearly says not to worry.
So, every time I even for a moment start to worry or have an anxious thought I begin to pray and God has each and every time given me clear and defined peace. That alone makes me want to pray even more. God is so good.
Another thing that I have spent some time pondering and praying over is the idea of why we as Believers so often ask God for something or for discernment in a situation and then when he answers us we are always so amazed..... Why is that?!?!? He tells us to ask, seek, and knock!! That is what he wants us to do. So, why are we so taken aback when he answers?? That is food for your thoughts today.......
An update on donations............. I have raised $1110.00 as of yesterday afternoon. Praise the Lord.....
I got an amazing opportunity to speak at Five Points Baptist Church yesterday morning and so many gave generously. It was a wonderful experience and I am grateful for their monetary donations as well as all the prayers that will be lifted up while our team is in Haiti. A huge thank you to them!!!!!
