Faithful Till the End

As I have been crying out to God for my financial situation I kept remembering a song that says "He is Faithful till the End, He will finish what He started."  And what an encouragement it has been for me these past few weeks. I now have 3 monthly supporters and only need $775 more a month to reach the necessary amount.  It is so amazing to me how God has opened up the doors, and really has provided for me.  I was talking to Laken just last night, sharing my discouragement with her and how scary this new step was.  She kept reminding me how faithful God is, and told how faithful He was to her in her first years of missions, and even when she moved to Norway completely based on her faith in God, and He provided for all of her needs.  I constantly remind myself of the families who live off of faith, Ywam leaders who don't even ask for support and they are able to make down payments on a house.  There are 20,000 full time staff in Ywam, 20,000 people who each month, rely solely on God's promises to provide and there faith that He will. If God can give families enough money for a payment on a house, or a car, or provide for someone to minister to 14 different countries when they are living on less than $300 a month, then He can and He will provide the $775 I need.  He will provide the money I need for my plane ticket back to Norway, and the plane ticket to Brazil.  He is so faithful. He will provide. He is the provider.

As scary as these past few weeks have been, I have seen my faith in God growing.  I know that God has lead me to Norway for a reason, He has called me to help take part in Justice Dts, He has lead me to missions. And what a comfort that is to know He has got me in the palm of His hand. Not only that, but what a Testimony of how faithful God is, when He provides in impossible situations.  Or like the song I sang while walking across the fields in Kenya with one of my favorite locals, Abendigo, "He will make a way when there seems to be no way, He works in ways we cannot see, He will make a way for me."

I know this school is just the beginning of my missionary journey, I know God will lead me to other nations, other ministries, but I can rest in Him, because He is faithful. And Great is Thy Faithfulness.
