And If Our God Is For Us........


For those who do not know, I am currently in the process of raising $8,400 for a one year internship in Garden Valley, Texas called the Honor Academy.  Raising the money for this internship has probably been one of hardest things I have ever done, but God has taught me so much from it.  He has taught me to be generous in mygiving.  He has also taught me how important it is to not worry and trust in Him (Luke 12: 22-25).  When I first decided I was going to the Honor Academy I stressed myself out completely over the finances.  But as time went on, and I stressed myself out, I watched God provide in the most amazing ways.  Now, my attitude towards these much needed funds is calm and security in God, and He has surely been faithful!  I work at a small restaurant, and a few weeks back,  my kindergarted teacher came in to eat.  It had been years since I saw her.  It was really nice to see her, she asked what I was doing these days and I couldn't help but tell her about the Honor Academy.  I don't even remember saying much about money for the internship, maybe just that I was fundraising for it if that.  Yesterday when I got to work there was an envelope for me from her and her church.  Inside was $100!! God is so faithful and if HE is for us WHO can be against us?
