Allie mentioned in the last blog that we were about £1,100 short for her trip tomorrow with Andrew and Harry.
We were not going panic! God’s always provided faithfully.
On the train yesterday morning Steve likened the holding of our nerve to trying not be the 1st to blink. Les said he’d pray about it sometime before 9am….so I said I’d open my wallet in anticipation.
We’ve not blogged or Facebooked about this specifically as we felt to do so wouldn’t be trusting in God…we’d be trying to fix it by screaming “Help!”
£150 received earlier in the week…the total’s now £950.
A query about our outstanding balance is received.
I dreamt vividly on Monday night that we’d receive the money from a specific source…disappointed to wake up and realise it was a dream.
Just before 9am yesterday I was going up the escalator into the office determined ‘not to blink’ that day….won’t apply for an overdraft!!
Allie calls when I get to the top of the escalator…£850 has arrived!
That, plus a couple of reduced costs, means that we’ve broken even!
Thank you to all those who are praying for us.
Thank you to those that were able to support us financially.
Praise God for his faithfulness.
This journey is so exciting…but I’m not sure it’s doing my nerves any good J
Oh wow! God is SO good and SO faithful. You're all learning some amazing stuff as you take this journey. So glad you're blogging about this and writing it down because the memories of events like this will sustain you as you go on. Have a great day celebrating! Love to Allie and prayers as she leaves for Burundi. Hope she and the boys have a great week.
