What are we called to do... have faith. How can we have more faith? By getting to know the God we have faith in better. How do we get to know Him better? Reading His word and listening to His word, and by pondering what He has done.
Here is some of my pondering:
Janurary:
1. God worked out all the details for my mom and dad's trip to come visit Venezuela. My dad got on our flight, we were able to rent a car (they were all taken online). We found a place to stay, the day before leaving for Venezuela. Every little detail, God worked them all out.
2. Diego and I celebrated one year of being together. God is so good.
3. Missions conference for 200 new churches in Venezuela by 2020. 6 new churches were planted this last year. And there are many new potencial churches meeting in small groups through out the city.
February:
1. At the school the staff is dedicated to praying for each student and expecting miracles to happen. Not just behavior miracles but physical miracles, healing of ADD and ADHD, learning differences among other things. We are already seeing miracles happen.
2. International students are appearing out of nowhere, even though the international community in Venezuela is diminising quickly.
3. A muslim family in the school has been recommending our school to all their friends and their are 3 more muslim families that want their kids in our Christian school.
4. We are studying breaking free in our bible study with the church during the week. God is already revealing areas of bondage and liberating us.
5. Not my testimony but a good friend of mine. Her nonChristian boyfriend was shot and killed in an armed robbery. It has been almost a year, she is now engaged to a great Christian guy and they plan on getting married in August. They were able to find a great affordable appartment in just a few short weeks. If you know Caracas you know what is a miracle.
6. Every week at church at least one person comes to have faith and start a personal relationship with the Lord. With a congregation of between 50 and 70 people I think that is amazing. God is big!
God is good all the time, we are protected under his wings. Its time to start singing with Joy!
One last thing. I am still needing to raise $5,000 to break even for this 2010-2011 school year. Do you want to help the name of Jesus be proclaimed in Caracas, Venezuela? If you feel God is leading you to financially support his work in Caracas Venezuela click on the donate link on the side bar. Thank you so much!
