Yardsale!!! Saturday's yardsale was not nearly as successful as last weeks yardsale. It was a bit discouraging to not make as much. Throughout this entire process of my missions trip I have been learning the importance and fully relying on God. Money is something that usually stresses me out and I have seen it stressing me out during this process too. I am about a third of the way funded and I and supposed to be 75% funded at this point. As you can imagine, I am very stressed out right now, especially since I just signed a contract which commits me finacially to the trip regardless if I can go or not. Phillipians 4:19 says, "And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus". This verse is a continual reminder for me throughout this process that God will always provide. It is very difficult for me to fully relinquish control, especially in this kind of situation. Now I now this verse does not mean that I can sit back and just wait for God to appear, but that I need to do my part and God will help me.
Please pray for me throughout the remainder of this process. Pray for funds to continually flow in, (thank you to all who have donated so far!), above all pray for my heart to continue to be shaped in a way that is more like Christ so I can show the people of Tacna Peru his love more deeply.
