god is faithful

when god first laid the food pantry ministy on my heart, the one concern i had was god please dont let amys ministry miss one single basket because of this ministry, the thanksgiving basket ministry was important too, and i told amy from the start, i wanted her to continue that. all week i have been praying for god to provide for that and amy stood up there so humbly today saying we were giving 11 baskets, 11 short of last lear but that was ok, if thats what god wanted that was ok. amy is so sweet, so i get home and i say jordan donate something please for thanksgiving baskets we need more, he said yes which turned into, praise god a weekly donation to food pantry as long as i reassured him that was part of tithing, of course it is, so praise god. then im thinking who do i know in the community that could give turkeys, the first selectman came right to mind as i have known him for years, so i call rose for her advice, thinking is it ok to solicit turkeys? im ready and willing to do it. she says, susan dont even worry we already got a large donation today from one of the members to get more baskets and the leftover is going to food pantry. god is amazing. the message today was on how awesome is our god.....oh yeah..... so anyways i just said a little prayer, god if you put the first selectman in my path this week, i will speak to him about helping with food pantry, so we will see. dont know if thats gods will or not, but we will see. and keep thinking next year christmas, we are going to do something for the children, write the vision make it plain, oh yeah. praise and glory and honor all to jesus.
