God Provides

Time in Las Vegas is growing short. We are less than two months away from our move to Tijuana Mexico where we will begin a transition home for girls who are turning 18 and must leave the orphanage. Everyday I see the statistics of human trafficking and hear about the stories of kids on the street and it breaks my hear that we aren't there already. But there is much to do here in Las Vegas before we go. 

The financial attacks on our family haven't ended but we have faith in our God who is infinitely bigger! We met with an attorney to set up the non-profit organization and the cost is $3,000. Since I had been working on our budget and set up costs for furniture and things, that $3,000 nearly overwhelmed me. But I turned to God and boldly asked for provision. 

God is faithful! Immediately, that day we received a donation of dressers for the girls. That was followed by a donation of a bunk bed and two mattresses. And finally yesterday another donation of a bunk bed and mattresses.  We are officially furnished to receive four girls when we arrive in Mexico. 

Now all we need is to raise monetary funds so we can set up the Non-profit organization and the monthly funds needed for their education, care, etc. But God is faithful! I know He provides and He will provide for these girls. He loves them even more than I do. 

As I begin to train my replacement at work, build a structure for the organization and home, pack my home, contemplate the logistics of moving our things to Mexico, and say goodbye to dear friends, I think about the girls-those we know and those we have yet to meet. I think about who they will have the freedom to become in safety. And I thank God for the privilege of being able to be a part of it. 

God is good! Let's keep moving forward!
