I have to tell you another story of how God has shown me that he is in control and that I am doing what he wants me to do. Read the last blog about Mallory before You read further. Yesterday at Eternal, the church that meets at the YMCA in Baxter, it was Mission Sunday. From what I hear, the service was about the mission work the Lord is using the members of Eternal to do around the world. We ,Eternal, have a family serving in the mountains of Guatemala, a family serving in Peru, several missions trips to the mountain area of Guatemala, and I will be working with children in the city of Guatemala. The two missionary families and myself made short videos to update the congregation about our mission.
Yesterday a girl named Whitney visited Eternal. She was in Fort Mill visiting her boyfriend for the weekend. They missed the service at his church so they stopped in at his neighborhood church. During the service, the video of me updating the church came up on the large projected screen. In the video I mention that the Lord has sent me a friend, Mallory, for this portion of the journey.
Let me remind you, Whitney is sitting in a random church in a town she is visiting. Here is the good part of the story. Whitney is Mallory's best friend. The really cool part is that Whitney had been praying for God to send Mallory a friend for language school. Mallory and I have been talking for the last week about God answering that prayer. It seems us chatting about it and praising him for doing this for us wasn't good enough. Our God wanted to prove that he answers prayer to Whitney and to you. Many of you have e-mailed me about Whitney's experience so it is apparent the Lord wants you to see his power.
I love this story God has written and what a testament He continues to give you. I've been excitedly sharing your story with Sarah and Brian who also enjoy hearing of God's plans. This just makes me smils and praise God for His perfect love for us.
