Funds ...

My ISP trip is so close ... it's a little scary. Today my team was commissioned during chapel at school. It was awesome to be prayed for by people - I truly felt God's power during our prayer time. It was awesome. I thought this one guy was praying for me in tongues ... I could have sworn. I was a little weary about it, not sure how to reacty. After he was done I turned around to see who it was ... it was my Korean friend Choi. He was praying for me in Korean, not tongues. I laughed a little at myself.

I'm worried though. I have to raise $500 more dollars before I go. God has truly been blessing me with funds, and I totally trust Him with it. However, I know I can't sit around and do nothing about it. Here's where I decided to start ... by blogging. I would ask if you are reading this to begin to pray for me. After today's commissioning chapel, I really believe that having others pray for you is powerful. Please pray that God provides $500 more for me to go on my trip.

Since I'm pretty sure only 2 people read this ... maybe you could ask one other person to pray. That would make 5 people total (myself included) praying intently for $500. 5 people praying for $500, that sounds good. Maybe go a step further ... pray at 5 o'ckock, or every 5 til or 5 after the hour ... be creative. I'll update when I hear any news on how God is providing.

Thanks Mike and Lucas ...

Oh, and if you have any fund-raising ideas let me know.

Dude, my prayers are tottally with you. I'm the same boat. It's moments like these that faith really takes a realistic form (not always). Hang in there...and I'll let people know.
