--March 3, 2010
Dear brothers and sisters, Thank you ever so much for your generous response to our e-update on Friday! As we shared with you, we were in a place unable to cover March payroll and expenses, but because of your generosity by the end of the weekend, it was covered. Absolutely incredible! We have felt the Holy Spirit calling us to follow him as he takes us from an approach where we have received the Father's provision as if we were receiving Manna for the day, that is, what is needed to cover the month's financial needs. That has been the way we have lived by faith these 14 years of full time ministry. It is quite remarkable and humbling
to know our Father's personal care for this ministry over the years. We sense him now calling us in prayer to a shift that can be likened to the multiplication of the loaves with extra baskets collected. Where we have the 'extra' needed in order to effectively carry out the increasing mission of helping others discover,
follow and share Jesus our Lord.
We believe that what happened this weekend is an indication of this shift beginning. It really was quite miraculous. Thank you for being with us in the mission of advancing the love of Christ! We cannot do this without your partnership. Please know that we are grateful to God for each of you and remember you in our daily prayers.
Please be praying for us. We are in a time of incredible fruitfulness and need your intercession. If you haven't seen the letter we recently mailed out with more details on current developments, you can download it here.
Pray with me in thanksgiving, will you? Father, we praise you for your faithfulness to ChristLife and the generosity of our brothers and sisters. Thank you for calling us to make your Son Jesus known through the power of the Holy Spirit. Draw us deeper in the knowledge of your love during these 40 days of Lent. Through Jesus Christ our Lord we pray. Amen! Gratefully yours in his love, Dave |
