Young Life Chicago Update

Speechless..........

Thank you LORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Speechless..........

Seriously though... Anna and I just came home from being gone the whole weekend for a wedding and opened up some mail and our jaws dropped. The LORD is SO good!!

And yeah, everyone know that the LORD is good, but when He comes through and is faithful to His character.... it makes me just be speechless, tear up, and drop to my knees with praise and thanksgiving.

So to continue my story, we can home to 2 miracles. We had 3 letters that were return envelopes from the letters that we sent out to people to be able to know that we were called into ministry with Young Life and to also give them an opportunity to partner with us as we are being sent off as missionaries. All three checks were very generous, but 2 of the three people either know us very little or not at all!

The "Not at all:"
We sent a letter to a friend in Arizona and we received a letter back from that address, but from people that we do not know. They explained that they read the letter out of an impulse and they sent back money to support our ministry!! Praise God!! Talk about a divine appointment!! Only only only our God Almighty can do something like this. This couple are believers as well, so the chances of the people that opened up the letter being Christians as well makes the story even better!!!

The "very little:"
We also have spome married friends that know about our ministry with YL and they told their parents about us. So, our friends urged us to write the parents and their generosity literally left me speechless. I won't say how much they gave, but I WOULD HAVE NEVER EVER EVER thought that we would see a check for the amount that they gave us. All I can say is PRAISE GOD!! Even when we write them a thank you it won't seem like enough... Thank you LORD!!!

So, I'm going to go praise the LORD with my wife right now, but please continue to pray for us as we follow the LORD'S will in this calling and faithfully believe that He will provide from nothing...
