Jesus is alive and He is able to help us through everything... Everything from raising thousands of dollars to something as simple as a bike ride.
Support raising was a little discouraging this past week, but the Lord has been so faithful and I've been able to set up so many appointments for the upcoming weeks. With less than one month to go and quite a bit still to raise I need the Lord to provide in crazy ways and I know He will. He is so faithful and is so good. He will get me through this month and to my assignment.
In small (and big) ways He is continually showing me just how faithful He is. The other day I was on my bike ride and on my way back home. I was heading up a hill and struggling just a little to keep up my speed. My iPod was on and the song "True Love" (by Phil Wickham, but this version was by a church worship band) was playing. Right when I started to struggle the part came on that repeats "Jesus is alive... Jesus is alive... " which I became completely caught up in, realizing how beautiful He is and how good He is and just all those emotions and truths about the Lord that just can't even be expressed in words. I made it to the top of the hill just fine, because He got me over it. Once I reached the top the song exclaimed, "Oh He is alive! He rose again!"
It was so wonderful. I had goose bumps all over and tears in my eyes.
He is SO good and HE IS ALIVE! :)
True Love - listen!! :)
