every day of my life i can brag on my GREAT GOD and what i have seen Him do and I have seen so many things this past week that one post can hardly hold it all. My top 7...
1. The many people from all over our community who said yes to God and gave an hour, a day, or a week to serve with joy and sweat at Proceeds for Poverty (P4P).
2. God working through Roy and Nancy Carter, 2 people who gave not only the past week but last serval months. Along with others Roy picked up 66 loads of stuff! They both gave their all to Jesus and served with joy and His strength. He leads by example and encouraged us all.
3. The many people (many from different churches) who made doll dresses to sale, baked goodies, posted signs, organized pickups, gave out brochures....they said YES GOD and took action to show love to the poor and needy.
4. My sister who came and served with us for a few hours. This is just a testament of God's healing in her body and His grace to give her the strength and will.
5. God working despite the heat and storm to make over $17,000 at the sale, along with a $10,000 donation, and a late donation of around $2,500 to give us almost $30,000 from Proceeds for Poverty this year......HE LOVES AND RESCUES THE POOR AND NEEDY!
6. Kaaliya's face as she dug through a box of clothes, belts, underwear, shoes, and even a bathing suit that Lorrie, by God's wisdom, put together for her from the TUGA loot. God knew her need and made a way for us to meet it through obedient people who give and Lorrie who picked it out.
7. My children who learned about Him through Edith being obedient and teaching them and so many other children all throughout the week.

Isaiah 41:17-20
17 “When the poor and needy search for water and there is none,
and their tongues are parched from thirst,
then I, the Lord, will answer them.
I will never abandon them.
18 I will open up rivers for them on the high plateaus.
I will give them fountains of water in the valleys.
I will fill the desert with pools of water.
Rivers fed by springs will flow across the parched ground.
19 I will plant trees in the barren desert—
cedar, acacia, myrtle, olive, cypress, fir, and pine.
20 I am doing this so all who see this miracle
will understand what it means—
that it is the Lord who has done this,
the Holy One who created it.
and their tongues are parched from thirst,
then I, the Lord, will answer them.
I will never abandon them.
