Only By His Might And The Mite Of Others

As I mentioned on my last post, we have postponed our departure to May because we are currently short of our goal for 100% support by February. However, we feel SO blessed by the support we already do have! If you are current supporter, I just want to say a mega “Thank You!”. Our support level has gone from ZERO to 71% in only 5 months! We are amazed at this, really. And it hasn’t been because of anything we have done. All the praise and glory go to God. He has put his kingdom work in Peru on the hearts of His people. Our job has just been to find out who those people are, and to also faithfully share the vision for ministry with anyone who will meet with us and listen. We know that we will never get to 100% by our strength and work, but by God’s. It is God’s might that accomplishes it….and yours! Okay, not your might, but your “mite”. It reminds me of the time when God told Moses to prepare the build the tabernacle (Exodus 36:6). God, through Moses asked the Israelites to contribute. And boy, did they! Widows brought their mites, those who had more gave generously. If a person didn’t have money, they used their talents to make fine linen to give, or to make other valuable items. In fact, the Israelites gave SO generously that Moses finally had to say “We have enough”. Wow! I can’t wait until we can say “We have enough”, but until then I am going to say “Thank you for giving to the Lord! Thank you for giving your mite…and more!” To God be the glory forever and ever.
