"Do You Still Trust Me?" Is a question that we feel we have been hearing from God like a record on repeat. This whole season of our lives has been a giant cycle of God directing and redirecting, giving and taking away, all to show us how far we are willing to take that trust and how much we are willing to stake everything on his faithfulness, goodness, and grace. And y'all... He has really shown up! He has not forsaken us for a moment, and He has come through in ways that we did not even think were possible. After finding out last week that we had raised a grand total of $0 towards our monthly goal of $3,750, we decided to see it as an opportunity, rather than a defeat. It was an opportunity for us to answer: "Yes, we still trust You." We chose to hold on to hope and cling to the promise that God will provide for all of our needs (Philippians 4:19). Then, I kid you not... The very next day, funds started coming in, and they have not stopped!God has been moving so quickly and so faithfully that we now find ourselves with over 1/3 of our monthly goal covered! We are actually only $535/month short of being halfway! And that is ALL GOD! In exactly one week, we went from having NOTHING, to being almost HALFWAY FUNDED. We are completely blown away! Our friends and family have heard our vision for the people of the Ft. Bend County area and have decided to be a very real part of how God is working by contributing financially so that we can serve full-time. We know that God will bless them for blessing us because he loves a cheerful giver and those who sow bountifully will also reap bountifully (2 Cor. 9:6-7)! WHERE IS GOD ASKING YOU TO TRUST HIM?We know that God used this situation as an opportunity for us to choose to trust Him, even though things were not going the way we had hoped or planned, and our faithfulness was rewarded. We encourage you to trust Him wherever He is leading because He will not let you down!
We still need roughly $2,500 in monthly commitments but we have no doubt that God will continue to direct every step of our fundraising process. If you feel like God is leading you to partner with us financially or prayerfully, please check out our support page to give and join our prayer team! If you would like to set up a time to meet, skype, or chat with us to hear more about our vision and ministry or to just hear more of our story as an encouragement, please contact us, we would love to connect with you!
