Jericho or Bust part 5
As I am sitting here waiting for the kind folks that I minister with over in the CEC to come and take the last of my belongings. If you all remember I have to either sell or give all my stuff away before I start my mission trip to Israel. Haven’t read about it yet? Then just follow the link below and read about my mission trip to Israel and how it all began…
In the quest to go through and deal with all of my stuff including boxes of records, I accidentally threw away my brand new passport which cost me $100. I look for days for it and was quite worried as I had only a month before I was to leave for Israel.
I finally broke down and filled in all new paperwork including of course the form having to explain how I lost the passport. It cost me another $100 dollars and I was worried that it would take to long to get to me, but I had to risk it as it would have cost another $70+ dollars to expedite the procedure and a friend of mine told me that he got his in 2 weeks.
Well as time passes, I do start to worry that I should have expedited the passport as I started to realize it would probably cost me even more to change my non-refundable plan ticket. I prayed everyday for the passport to come quickly and was thinking that I should contact the post office when I got back from Michigan on July 1st.
God of course had the whole thing covered. The day before I was getting ready to fly home to Michigan my passport shows up in the mail. I came in about 10 days. Not only that, I get a check in the mail from someone for the entire cost of the passport plus $7 dollars. I really feel like God was saying that this was done and I no longer have to worry about my passport.
This was just one more sign for me that I know I am following God’s heart in going to Jericho. It seems impossible for me to mess it up and do something like lose my passport. He has me covered so I will trust Jesus to see me there. God is behind this move, this I am sure of and if He is behind it then I will trust that He will insure all that I need for this trip will be in place when I need it.
Thank You Jesus for loving this much that you are my provider.
God is good!
