God's economy

Well, If you would have asked me a few days ago if I was going to Kenya? The answer would have been not right now. It was 2 whole weeks before I was planning on originally leaving and I was a few hundred dollars short on funds. I tried to get rid of everything I could, but with little success. I will honestly tell you the prayer of my heart was: "God I feel like you want me to do this, I have tried my best, but your going to have to take care of the rest." The next day, I tried some last ditch effort to get rid of something else and again no success. So, honestly I was really irritated. I just wanted to chill out with the guys and enjoy guys night after workout. Later that night, I had a short conversation with some very good friends of mine and they wanted to help. It was enough to take care of what I needed. So, I did what any one would do, when God provides you go. That night I booked my ticket and the next day was able to get the shots I needed in time. There were still other things that came up unexpectedly and the money just came out of no where. Even if more things come up, I know that those needs will be met too. That is just the way that God works! When the gap seems to wide the bridge compensates for it. It was and still is a constant test of my faith, that is part of what makes the whole process so important. If it had not been a struggle, then I would not have had to trust God in the situation and my faith would not have had to Grow. Interesting, this happened all the time in the Bible. So, now here I am leaving October 4th on another exciting adventure with God.
