People often ask me, How do y’all do this? Who pays for all this? Where does the funding come from?”
My answer: “Well God!”
Them: “But?”
Me: No, no but! Just God!”
Believe me when I tell you there is discouragement at times. There is doubt at times. There is fear at times! There is “the world” over here saying just stay here. You are okay. You can minister here!, snickering!” Then there is my Lord saying, “I’ve got this. You two can do this. Just hang in there and I will take care of you! I’ll take care of all of y’all’s needs! I’ll make sure the truck goes, the fuel stretches, the food is enough! I am going to get you there and bring you back for a rest and to get ready to go again!”
When fuel, groceries and just expenses in general went up I asked God to show me that this is what we are suppose to do. Well last night at 10 Peanuts phone went off. It was a friend in Kentucky that wanted us to come on a certain date. When I looked it was the only date in April we had left! I got ya Lord! See when we don’t bother to conquer our mountain and we just stand there looking God will show us how to conquer it, whether it is climbing it or Him removing it. So I am waiting, He will remove it or show us how to climb it. I get more nervous about this than Peanut! I don’t always understand what happens or why. I know a lot of the problems we have sometimes is our own fault.
Now I would like to ask you to pray. We leave the 6th of April and will be back May 10th in time for the newest grandbaby to come into this world! From April 6th to October 15th, our last trip so far, it will take right at 15,000 give or take, in just fuel! Pray, pray, pray. The more warriors we have praying the better. God hears your cries. I sincerely believe this and I believe that we can speak it into existence. We love y’all. None of you will ever know how much we love you all! If you would like to pray with us over the phone please feel free to call us. My number is 3185049603. Or peanut at 3185049598. You want to send a card- 399 Dummy Line rd. Pioneer, La 71266. We take these cards with us and read them off and on!
Remember - Fear is a liar. Doubt and discouragement is a thought put in your mind by satan. He loves to play there. He knows our weaknesses and he will use other people to discourage you. Never, never, let anyone tell you that you can not do something! Stand firm, stand tall, shoulders back, head up and walk proud in your Daddy’s footsteps. Here are some encouraging scriptures to maybe help you along the way!
Numbers 8:11
and Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD like a wave offering from the children of Israel, that they may perform the work of the LORD.
Genesis 15:1 After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, saying, “Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.”
Genesis 26:24. And the LORD appeared to him the same night and said, “I am the God of your father Abraham; do not fear, for I am with you. I will bless you and multiply your descendants for My servant Abraham’s sake.”
Psalm 19:9. The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever; The judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
Numbers8:11. “Aaron is to present the Levites before the Lord as a wave offering from the Israelites, so that they may be ready to do the work of the Lord.”
Isaiah 40: 29-31 He gives strength to the weary, And to the one who lacks might He increases power. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.
2 Corinthians 5: 7 “For we live by faith, not by sight.”
