God is the Source

Here it is, our first blog!  Yes, God is working...in our lives, on a daily basis, in so many ways!  He is stretching us far beyond what is "comfortable" as we have now officially stepped-off this cliff of faith and trust and into the unknown waters of "raising support".  It has been a long summer of really examining what God wants for us in this journey.  He has made clear our calling, and He has asked us to trust Him to provide for us.  I have to be honest - we are not comfortable asking people to give money on our behalf!  But as we look at scriptural examples, we see that God requires some to depend on Him this way (the Levites, Jesus, Paul) and that He promises that His ways are better than ours (Is. 55:8-9).  One thing's for sure - we understand that God is the source of any financial support!  In Philippians 4:18, Paul called the Philippians' gift a "fragrant aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, well-pleasing to God."  Their gift was to God, God provided for Paul. 
Praise the Lord that we can completely depend on Him for our every need - He has proven faithful before, He will prove faithful again!
