I was blind and can now see!!

I want to share another amazing testimony with all of you. A couple of weeks ago I woke up and was completely blind in my left eye. The crazy part of this story is that there was absolutely no fear in me. I instantly just turned to my Dad and asked him to take care of it!! When I looked back up I could see light. I then asked again for Him to take care of it. The second time I looked up my sight was completely restored. I was healed completely and fully, instantly!

Later that day I called my mom to tell her about this. During this phone call I learned that 15 minutes before I woke up. Our Father had woke her up and she was up interceding for me before I even knew there was a problem. What proof that He is our Daddy!! and He loves us more than we can even fathom. I am learning to live life expecting from our Father.

Yard Sale Results...and more!!

We were blessed by this event...people were so generous! We had many many items donated for our silent auction, yard sale and bake sale. We ended up taking in about $1500. But even more than that it was amazing to see the turn out of all of our family and friends. Everyone came along side of us and helped with getting donations, set up, clean up, baking items etc!! Our friends and family are amazing!!

Our Father is filling our storehouses to overflowing! He is opening doors for our support to come in. It is amazing to watch it happen. As we said in our last newsletter we need 75 people to pledge $25.00 per month for 2 years after we leave. Since that newsletter went out 1 week ago we have already had 6 of those $25 pledges filled. (that we know about) Isn't He good!!!

Also some opportunities have opened up with my (jodie) job that we may be able to meet a large portion of our cash budget ourselves!! And we may have a couple of churches that may have us come and speak!! We are just waiting and expecting!!

HIS HEALING POWER!!!

I want to share with all of you that our Father still heals!!! I had an opportunity to pray for a women who had breast cancer a few years ago. She went in for x-rays to do a check-up and they found a spot and the doctors thought it had returned. I had the privilege of praying with her and sharing scripture to help encourage her. Well, I got a phone call a few days later and her MRI was completely clean, there was no longer a spot on it!!! Isn't He good!!
