When I was little, one of my favorite things to do was to
“help“ daddy. It wasn’t that I knew what I was doing or was even learning to
attain a trade. I just wanted to be near him. Whether he was fixing a car or
doing a project on the house, I was there. He would tell me what to do and what
he needed and then I would pass him the wrench, go get the wheelbarrow or
whatever.
That is kind of how it is with my heavenly Father too.
We just want to be near Him. And He is so loving that He
invites us to join Him in what He is doing even though we don’t have a clue
what do to… It doesn’t matter. We just listen and obey what He tells us and He
accomplishes His purpose.
Whether it is serving at Proceeds for Poverty or even moving
to the Middle East as a family we are joining Him because we just want to be
near Him. We have no idea what we are doing at times. We just know we need to listen
and do what He asks us to do and we know that He will accomplish His plan and
His purpose.
We are just excited we get to be a part of it, to obey, and to be with
Him.
Proceeds for Poverty is this weekend in Troutville, VA – It is the LARGEST YARD SALE IN ROANOKE.. with over 50,000 items. Come buy, share the event with
others, volunteer, and donate. 100% of the proceeds go to help meet the basic
needs of people… like a home for families who lost theirs in Nepal, and clean
water to drink for villages, and food for refugee families and orphaned children.
