'Hold it Up to the Light' by Smalltown Poets
I've been realizing how lazy I've been lately as I have had the same cd in the car for at least a month now. I'm also remembering how God works in mysterious ways.
There is one song on this Smalltown Poets cd that says,
Isn't that a neat verse? I feel like it is totally where I have been at. Knowing that God has been giving me this vision for so many years and He will fulfill it... but it's going to take faith. Yikes. And I catch myself saying, "Lord, please bless this decision. Bless my preparations for Your work. Give me fortitude for the trials and joys ahead. Please provide for me that I can serve You without financial worry."
So, praise the Lord with me that the way has come through right where we've prayed that it would. My outgoing funds are almost complete. I still need about $800 in monthly funds, but it is truly amazing how God has provided this money- through many of you and in such a quick manner. Eight weeks to go!! So many other preparations and needs other than finances, but I know the Lord prepares us for His work and we can trust in Him.
So here's to trusting Him...

"I said, 'God, will You bless this decision, I'm scared, is my life at stake? But I know, if You gave me a vision, would I never have reason to use my faith?' Now as soon as I'm moving my choice is good. This way comes through right where I prayed that it would..."
