HE IS FAITHFUL...

So, if you follow me on Face book, than you know that I was super excited about something last night. I got many text and emails about what I was so excited about. So, since I blog, I figured this was the best way to tell everyone about the great news.



As you all know, my boys are going to their very first mission trip this summer with our youth group. They are going to Canada. They are so excited, but momma here was thinking “No Freaking Way!” I had other family members telling me that I was crazy for letting them go. And to be honest, I had decided nope they are not going. Well, I attended a meeting and heard about the cost and who all was going, and I thought well I will pray about it. So that evening, I talked with God, and told him, that if this is what he wants the boys to do, than to give me complete peace, and have things line up perfectly for them to go. Two weeks later, the boys got their passports in the mail, and a family member wrote them a check to help cover the cost for spending money. And I was at complete peace, no fear of them going away to CANADA!.


The church held an auction, and they raised quite a bit of money to help pay for each youth member going. We were quite excited of the turn out and the generosity of our church members who were very giving. And Pastor Robert kept saying that he knew God was going to take care of it. So we put our faith with his, and just sat back to wait.


Yesterday, I stayed home with a nasty headache. I got a call from the Youth Pastor, telling me how much money each youth member got, and how much was due. Having two boys going, let’s just say we were looking at over 800 bucks to come up with in about 2 months. He told me that half was due this month, and the rest was due in June. I will admit, I thought to myself, there is just no way. But I told him, ok, we will figure it out. I got off the phone, and I shook my head, and thought, ok, so if we don’t pay this on time, and if I work some extra hours, and get Trav to work some over time, than maybe we can pull it off. And than I thought Nope, I am going to stand on my faith. So I talked to God again. I told him, ok Lord, you gave me peace, and you told me this is what you want the twins to do, so you know how much is needed, so take care of it. And that was it.


I took a nap, and went upon my daily business. Travis calls to check on me during his break.  I told him how much was needed and what was due. And he said ok, well we will see how to make it happen, he went back to work. He and I never talked about it again.. After Jasmine’s game last night about 8:30pm I get a phone call from our youth Pastor’s wife, and she tells me that they got a phone call from someone, who is paying for the rest of our boys trip. I was like are you serious?! She laughed and said YES! SO guess what!? Our Twins are going to Canada! God is good!

 And to the person who paid for our boys! Thank you, for sowing some great seed into our children. Trav and I pray blessings overflow you and your home above and beyond what you can imagine!!
