how amazing He is

When in doubt, trust.

Sometimes, its a bit difficult to trust in the one who truly is providing for us all. But the funny thing is, He doesn't ever trust. He looks out for our best interest. He knows our hearts, plans, desires, passions and especially our needs. That does not include our wants.

Needs.

Wants.

Just looking at both of those words are just so interesting to me and are becoming so real to me as time goes along. They bring more revelation to my heart and checks my heart back into reality.

I may say I need oh.. lets say.. Taco Johns, no, I don't need fast food Mexican. No, no, indeed.. I need for myself to keep trusting Him; that money comes in, that he will make sure I do have food, that I can pay for gas, etc. You get the picture. :)

But the funny thing is, here I am.. yesterday in fact, worrying about my finances.. why? Oh, I have no idea.. I guess its just something to preoccupy my heart instead of living in the now.
My whole point to this blog is, money came in for the Dominican Republic trip and all that I have to say is.. I more than appreciate it. Even though things may be hard economically friends and family, that doesn't mean we should limit God. I now will trust Him with the rest!

$175 left to go for the trip.

My younger brother, Andrew, is still trusting for the money to go as well. I do pray that we all will be able to go as a family. All, as in my younger brother, mom, dad and I. I am so excited for what He is doing in my life right now. Its so insane. There are times in life when we get frustrated with things, but I would have to say I'm quite content with where I am. I got a job as a hostess, it doesn't bring in too much but it brings in at least something, so that I may pay my bills :)

FYI - I received in one of our church publications that in Kenya more than 570 people accepted Christ as their Savior during a medical and evangelism outreach in the eastern town of Laisamis.

Sorry we weren't able to get together while we were in Denver =(

Love ya,
