God never ceases to amaze me. He knows the desires of our hearts, and he knows our needs. Right now, we are feeling so joyful to be a part of the South Baton Rouge Church of Christ. In January, the college group decided to send a container to Honduras full of things to help the people who live there. Very few students in the college ministry have ever been to Honduras, but they labored many hours to prepare this container. On this container, some people put a few things for our home there. The church came together and filled the container top to bottom, and front to back. Many people will be affected by the love of the people in BR.
Another blessing this week comes from Parkview Baptist School. My mother-in-law teaches there, and the JR. High president goes to our church. They decided that the JR High students would try to raise money for school supplies for children of Honduras. Cheryl initially hoped they would raise $800. The kids set out to do bake sales and many other things to raise money. They (without the help of their parents) raised over $2000.
This month we ran into a few extra expenses, and today we had an email saying that someone had decided to send us a check without having any clue of these extra expenses. While this person did not know, God did.
How amazing God is, and how often we forget that.
