Just imagine...it's the week before our missionary team will arrive from Georgia. Kyle's mom and a couple who are full-time missionaries in Nicaragua (presently in the states for a few months) make up our team of three. Our plans are to minister to those who are needy spiritually...and physically. We have a number of boxes filled with clothing items...that haven't arrived yet. The team is uncertain as to exactly what they will be doing. We don't have a list of who we are going to be ministering to...our plans are somewhat vague...things are what you might say...ASKEW!
Despite the situation from a humanly perspective, God proved Himself faithful once again. I am amazed at how He can glorify Himself. I will admit, when Kyle was telling me of the plans for the coming week, I was doubtful. Every question I asked was answered with, "I'm not sure, I don't know or maybe." Praise God that He knows all things even when we don't!
Well, the week was great! Many days the team spent prayer-walking and almost everyday they were out ministering to people within the city. Four boxes of clothes arrived a couple of days before the team, we had a list of people to see and the members of our church were eager to be a part of what God was doing just as things came together...not a minute too soon (nor too late!) After Jimmy gave a sermon on Baptism we had 4 people to voice an interest in being baptized. There were a few people that visited our church that Sunday after our team members gave them clothing. Our church members are going to be in contact with the others that we met with...God just really showed that He can do more than what we could anticipate!
