God and His Great Provision


This has been such a great summer for us. God has shown us that He is our provider and protector over and over again. As many of you know I experienced some health problems this summer that wiped us out financially. Thanks be to God that my health was restored and that I am living pain free today. I can not tell you what a blessing that has been for me. Due to all the medical bill our savings for Pablo to attend seminary was gone in no time. Pablo was such a great support during this time and let me know that I came before school and money. That spoke volumes to me as I was feeling so guilty that the savings was gone on account of me. He has shown his love and support for me through it all. I am so grateful to have such a loving husband. We praised God for healing me and knew that He would provide for Pablo to attend school in the fall. He has brought us so fare we knew he would not abandon us now. We began to pray and asked many of you to pray with us. Two weeks before Pablo was to start the fall semester we did not have any money to pay towards his tuition. It was during those two weeks the Lord began to provide through scholarships and friends and family. One night Pablo was studying at the library and Peyton and I went to check the mail. When we checked the mail there was $1400 in checks from friends and family. I can not tell you the joy and gratitude that consumed me. When Pablo came home we thanked the Lord for taking care of us again and providing down to the last dollar. He knew what we needed and even went above that and gave us enough for books. HOW GREAT OUR GOD IS!!!!! I love watching Him work out things that are imposable to us. The week after school started the Lord then provided Pablo with a job at the church full time. This was another answer to our prayers. He has brought us through a summer I would re gladly live again. This summer I was able to see our Makers love and care in such a personal way. Thanks be to GOD!!!!!! We would also like to thanks all the friends and family that prayed and gave during this time. We are so grateful to you all. May the Lord bless you all richly.
