...share your food with the hungry and provide the poor wanderer with shelter--when you see the naked clothe him... Isaiah 58:7
AN EXPLOSION OF GODS FAVOR
It always seems that when we get involved with what God is doing, God gets involved with we are doing. This week the first of two teams from Laharpe Il and surrounding towns, are building two houses for two special families. The Carpenters Crew hit the colonia running yesterday and accomplished a lot for one day. Four walls are up on house #1, house two had the concrete poured and polished by noon, house three had Roy and his family shoveling caleche' and helping me move wood and load all the windows and roofing for today's assault on poverty. Rick, Alford and Bob will continue wiring our house and Carmelos for electricity, Carmelo will set up house three to pour the concrete on Wed, and the rest of the team of thirty will continue working on the two houses. All in all, the explosion of Gods Favor on the lives these missionaries will touch this week and next, will be life changing. We are already seeing the Holy Spirit move through the team as they interact with the people in the colonia, and see the people in the colonia being drawn into Gods Favor. We shared last night how life changing these simple houses are, and how God always uses them to express His love for them. Are you experiencing Gods Favor this week? Are you positioning yourself to be a receiver of Gods Favor? Maybe the storms,wind and waves are crashing over your boat and life right now and you need God to speak to your storm." PEACE BE STILL" was all that Jesus said and the storm calmed, was our Pastors message this past Sunday out of Mark chapter 4. Just a few words can change the situation, just a prayer , or a kind word can change the person you come in contact with today. We are the hands and feet of Jesus, don't sell yourself short of how God can use you to make a difference today. Paula just came in while I was typing this... Her Mom just went home to Jesus. A storm, or Jesus saying Peace Be Still? I say its' a peace she has never known before today.CONGRATULATIONS MOM YOU MADE IT!!
