So we have come through a week of monsoon type weather with an increasing urgency for a new building. last week we found leaks we never had before. We are running out of creative cieling irrigation ideas. We had about 12 buckets going last week, being emptied every 8 hours or so. We are talking BIG buckets.
We have a line on a new building, close by and excellent for our purposes. Ministries can expand. The only problem is $$$$. Sound familiar? We need about $1.5 million. The owners are willing to work with us on payment and occupancy.
So, what we need now is prayer. Please pray with us that God will provide the $$$$. This is not a stretch for God's ability, but it is a huge stretch of our faith.
Peace,
K

Last Weekend
Have you ever found yourself so busy doing "God's" work that you don't spend any time with Him. I was there last week. Just running around taking care of business and finding no time to Be Still. By the time the weekend was half over I was drained. The heat didn't help, but I just felt like God was off-line, which usually means I was.
So, Sunday nite we had communion at church. Largely, because I needed it. I needed to remember Jesus. I needed to remember why I do what I do, and have it all put in perspective. I am still finding myself exhausted from the whole deal.
I usually put off spending time with God because I "can't" afford to take the time. I often find that I can't afford not to take the time.

Obedience
Thought I would take a break from my Wesleyan studies and write something in "normal" english. Those guys in 1800s couldn't speak to save their lives.
Misha went to be with the Chinese yesterday. Misha is a part of our community and family. She sensed God prodding her to spend a year in China, teaching english and spreading the love that is within her because of Jesus. I am blessed to see her obedience. She is wide eyed and walking in expectancy that God is going to use her to help redeem his kingdom in another place, much as He used her here.
Blessings Misha, may God blow you away with His grace and mercy, so that you can share it with those you come to love in China.
