As of when I woke up today, I had about 25% raised for Charleston (which included my personal savings). I know that is a pretty low amount to have 2 weeks before leaving- I was trying not to freak out by keeping to the truth that God will provide. I mean, I still have the endless possibilities my potential ministry partners hold! But I had not gotten any kind of responses at all (I was even kind of afraid that no one had received my letters, haha) and was just feeling as though I had hit a dead end.
God had other plans for my journey, however. I never would have thought that God would choose to work through my non-practicing parents (the people in my life who are possibly the most skeptical about this support raising process and God's hand in it). He literally found the most surprising situation and worked good from it.
I am so blessed to say that I have a little over 50% raised for Charleston now. I am simply amazed and humbled about God's sovereignty over my support raising process and his power to bring in support from unexpected places. I cannot wait to see what else he has planned for me over the next two weeks.
So, Happy Mother's Day to my awesome, loving Mom. I know you don't know God personally yet, but seeing Him work through you for His glory has me in tears tonight. You have given so much towards this trip and continue to give me hope and reason. I love you beyond words.
