WHEN GODS' FAVOR EXPLODES IN YOUR LIFE

Yesterday we dedicated the house we built for Fidel, Maribelle and their son Christopher. We always point them to Christ as the giver of every good and perfect gift, and yesterday was no exception. After hanging the curtains and decorating the house we shared about how much God loves them and cares for them in the midst of their poverty. They were truly humbled by Gods goodness and we pray that they will establish a deep and meaningful relationship with Christ. Although the gift came from God, God used a family business in Palos Heights, Illinois to provide the funding to build the house, as God spoke to Den to give sacrificially and trust God to meet his needs as he met the needs of others. An explosion of favor is coming his way because he followed an instruction. Blessings always come as we hear an instruction and then follow it up with obedience, no matter the cost. Before we dedicated the house, a group from Childrens Haven Orphanage in Reynosa came and delivered a mountain of clothes to be given to the people in the colonia. They had more than they needed and brought two van loads of clothes. Betsy likes to bring the groups that come and help at the orphanage over to the colonia from time to time and show the Americans the poverty that exists so close to the USA. I also received over 100 jackets and coats to be given out to the people in Mx, and Roy brought 13 bicycles to be given out to those men that need transportation to get to work.
