IN GODS PERFECT TIME

As the family stood on the ground that would soon be filled with concrete, I could see the joy in their faces as the answer to their prayers was being manifested. Isaia and his family have been living in a shack no bigger than most bathrooms. They worked hard to fill the space with dirt to build their new home. The Carpenters Crew, as a direct call from God, will come next week and build the dream. They will drive and some will fly from several western Illinois towns and maybe a few from Iowa, sacrificing their time, talents and money for the sake of others less fortunate. I can imagine them getting prepared to come, last minute arraignments, paying bills, getting people lined up to feed their animals and take of their property in their absence, all for the sake of the call to help others in need. AWESOME!! Yesterday on the way to Mexico, we stopped at HEB a local grocery store and Paula filled the cart up with 100 packages of hot dogs. They fit perfectly in the cooler and that along with 50 donated loaves of bread we spent a few hours with David Garcia and his family, going door to door blessing as many families as we could with what we had. Now I don't know for sure which family had been asking God for some food, but I'm sure there was at least one and maybe more families that were in desperate need of food, and BAM God shows up. LISTEN, I beg you to LISTEN to what God is telling you to do today and everyday for that matter in regards to helping those in need. It cost only a hundred dollars to feed those 100 families a meal, so what does God do, He gives it right back to us with a phone call from someone last night, wanting to support us every month with a hundred dollar gift. So let's get our head out of our finances and put our heart there where God resides. He doesn't reside in your 401 K or your bank account balance sheet, He resides in your heart where He can use all of those things to bring glory to Himself when we obey an instruction, no matter how small.
