Awhile ago I wrote myself a note that says, "I hope I never get to a place where we have to reach back in to our past to give testimony of how God has met our needs in a miraculous way." I hope we will always look to Him and not other resources. I feel uneasy just writing that as my natural inclination is just the opposite. I want to be in charge-I am drawn to my own plans; I want to know the future; to have some money in reserve. For example, today is December 11th, by the 15th we have to have enough money for salaries, custom's fees, insurance and plane tickets. I would like to have the money now, but we have almost none of it. A part of me wants to be down with the uncertainty we have lived with for the last ten years. But then, we look at the several pages of answers to prayer and remember how these answers have encouraged us and others. That is when I reconsider and say again, "I hope we are always living in such a way that we are totally dependent on God to meet our needs."
I hope we are always living in such a way that we are totally dependent on God to meet our needs.12/11/2009
