...share your food with the hungry and provide the poor wanderer with shelter--when you see the naked clothe him... Isaiah 58:7
ABSOLUTLY BLESSED BEYOND MEASURE
The huge bins of food we have been blessing so many people I can't even count. Many Pastors and people that have needs have been coming for food and the bins are emptying fast. Of the twelve bins we got two weeks ago, we only have 5 left. Beyond the people coming to our house for food, we prepare boxes of assorted food and take them to the colonia and ask God to show us the people that need it the most and yesterday I stopped at a house and when the women saw all the food, she began to cry and praise God, because they had absolutely no food eat. Canned goods, cereal, pasta, cookies, crackers and other stuff will fill their stomachs for at least a week. Three other families were blessed as well. A friend came by with three men that work for him and we loaded up their vehicle for their families and later David told me that the men were speechless that people just give food away like that and were very grateful. Another foundation is almost ready and we might build it next week, or wait until our friends from Chicago leave. We can use help on this side for a few days to get the rest of our stuff out of the old house, and fix a few things before closing. Closing, what an interesting term for selling a house as another chapter closes in our life here and the new chapter is in full swing. We purchased 10,000 lbs of rice and it will be here tomorrow. It is half the price of we usually pay, so when the door to buy it opened we walked by faith through it, trusting God to provide the $2500 for the rice that will take us through the end of the year. Thanks for the prayers and partnerships, we couldn't do it without either.
