Double portion blessings. A few days ago, we felt God directing us to purchase a large amount of food in preparation for a possible food shortage/crisis. Things are starting to get bad in Haiti, the price of food is starting to go up, making it even more difficult for the average Haitian to feed their family. It's anticipated to get worse with Covid 19 spreading. We felt God telling us to prepare and stock up in order to be able to give when He tells us "now is the time".
We checked our financial reports yesterday and although God had came through in amazing ways for the month of March, we didn't see any surplus in April to be able to do this outreach. But we knew we had heard from Him. So yesterday Matt and some of our staff went out to purchase some basic staples consisting of rice, beans, cornmeal, spaghetti, sugar, salt, cooking oil, and bags to package the items.
This afternoon I got online once again to check our finances and couldn't believe what I saw. Extra giving. Basically double the amount of money that we spent yesterday showed up on our reports today. I love when He says "just take this step and watch what I can do". This was actually quite a large step for us to take... and once again He pulled it off! Thank you so everyone who walks by faith and takes these steps with us. We love Jesus and you!
