Provision

Tim talked about risky business. I feel like taking a prayerful risk means trusting God to take care of everything. And I mean EVERYTHING. Including the $40,000+ that this is going to cost us. (Yes, you read that number right.) When I think about that number for too long I get a little short of breath and wonder how in the world this will ever be possible. But God is bigger than that number. Much bigger. He's given both Tim and I a sense of peace that this is possible, but we have to ask for help. And to that end we wanted to let you, our friends and family, know how you might be able to be a part of this crazy adventure. At work we do what's called R&O's, which stands for Risks and Opportunities. We're asking you to take a risk with us so that S can have the opportunity to change all of our lives. In the coming months there will be lots of ways you can help. Stitches for S (more on that later), the opportunity to make Tim run really far, really fast, some other fundraising ideas we're looking into and then there is the easy way. Well two easy ways really. See that little paypal thingy over there? We suggest $10, but if you feel lead to give a different amount we also have a button for that. In two minutes or less you can give just a little bit to help bring S home. If you don't want to use paypal, or you want it to be tax deductible our church is setting up that fund as we speak... or blog. If everyone gave just a little bit S could be home before we know it!

Hey... this morning Lillian and I were doing our little mom and Lillian Bible study together.. and it just happens that we were reading a personal favorite section of the Bible.. Ephesians 3:14-21.. and God brought it to mind when I was reading this about you guys and provision... I have seen God provide in truly amazing and unbelievable ways in my life, and I know, as you go along this path and as you get to the end, at some point, you will look back and speak the words of Ephesians 3:20 and 21. We will pray for you guys - what exciting things God has in store! I pray that He will grow your understanding of His love for you and for people and for children and for the world through this process. Ephesians 3:14-21...
