His Glory, Our Good
This past Sunday we saw God do two things that we're rejoicing about this week.
- I had the opportunity to preach and present our ministry plan at Inter-City Baptist Church.
- Grace Life Baptist Church voted to support us.
We are overjoyed for two reasons.
First, Inter-City has been instrumental in our discipleship in many ways. When I first arrived, in Michigan, they took me in and cared for me. My wife and I were married there and have friends there that will last a lifetime. In addition, they were the church that sent out the team we were a part of to plant Resurrection Church in LP.
They also have been deeply invested in what God is doing over in Zambia at CABU already, and this has resulted in much fruit. There will be people standing in Heaven worshiping our King on his throne because of their sacrificial giving both of people and resources.
Second, Grace Life Baptist Church is an answer to a very specific prayer. We prayed that God would flex his power in our fundraising. We did not reach out to Grace Life, they reached out to us. God showed off his kindness and has showed me that He does not need my help.
Continue to pray that God will move in our preparation to go. We know He delights to make His power known in the middle of our weakness and dependence on Him.
