Waiting for God's provision

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! I definitely did, I love getting to spend time with family and eat a ton of good food.

I am very glad to inform y'all that Father has provided $1400 for my trip so far! Father is so faithful, enough keeps coming in time for my next payment and then some. It has been incredible to see His faithfulness thus far. While that is completely good news, I do have to inform y'all of a little hitch in the road. I received a letter from iGo earlier this week informing me that due to things getting more expensive across the board, I need to raise $5000 instead of $4000. I'm not worried, not one bit, that I won't be able to raise another $1000, it just means I have to trust Father for me. So far it hasn't been that hard, but as things really start picking up and that final April deadline gets closer, I know the enemy will do his worst to make me worried.

Please pray that my teammates and I will trust Father to provided everything we need, financially and spiritually. Pray that He would begin to prepare our hearts for the work and for living and working with one another. Pray for the M's as they are apart from their families in the holiday season. Most importantly, pray that Father would begin to work in the hearts of those He will put in our paths once we finally get to Japan. Pray that He would bind the enemies lies and give them hope enough to hold on. Thank you for all your prayers, by praying you are just as much a part of this as I am.
