God.

When I first started to type this blog post I wanted to start with a statement: God is so good! Then proceed to tell you readers what has been happening in my life and specifically pertaining to the process of my Ecuador trip. Then I thought, even if these things did not happen, would God still be good? Answer: Yes. Then I said to myself, I shall type: God is provider! But He is still, yet again, provider even if what i am about to tell you didn't happen. So, I've decided that you shall make up your mind as to what you think after I give you the progress of my trip.

   I woke up Wednesday morning, around 3:00 am with a terrible stomach bug [and all it entails]. This meant that I missed my training meeting Wednesday night. I was very disappointed because I was going to confirm with Bro. Bart that I was going on the Ecuador trip, if the Lord was pleased. Going into this meeting I was told by many people that, If God wants me to go on this trip, that He would provide the money. let's face it, I do not have $2,000 to go to Ecuador, but you know what I was reassured, "God does". I checked my email that Wednesday to find an EXCITING email. Bro. Bart said that we will only have to pay $200 by March 2, to confirm our spot on the trip and pay the rest for our airfare by the end of March. WHAT A BLESSING! In addition to this, the Lord is giving me the money for this trip from his faithful servants.

When I review all of these things I think, who am I to deserve these things? I am no one. I don't deserve these things. The Lord is a gracious God that provides for His children. Why He has chosen to use me, I don't know, But what a AWE-some God that He is choosing to do so. So, in the end, I have decided this about God: God is God.

Psalm 150

Hallelujah!

Praise God in His sanctuary.

Praise Him in His mighty heavens.

Praise Him for His powerful acts;

Praise Him for His abundant greatness.

Praise Him with trumpet blast;

Praise Him with harp and lyre.

Praise Him with tambourine and dance;

Praise Him with flute and strings.

Praise Him with resounding cymbals.

Let everything that breathes praise the LORD.

Hallelujah
