Good News and Bad News

Do you want the good news or bad news first?

I always like to hear bad news first so hear it goes!

 

A little while back, our agency added on some extra fees to our expenses. 

The Congo is not letting children out which is causing fees to increase due to new procedures and a longer stay in the foster home.

We were told to pay the fees whenever we could...no rush.

Well about a month ago we got a past due bill in the mail and felt a little bit of pressure.

At the time, we had absolutely no money so we did not pay the bill.

Then our precious anonymous donors sent a $10,000 check to Lifesong For Orphans.

They wanted to pay for travel and so we had left it in our Lifesong account for travel.

 

Then we got another bill in the mail a couple of days ago.

Instead of the bill having a "due date" it just said to pay it ASAP.

OK so I feel a lot of pressure and start praying. 

 

We felt to relieved to have all of the travel money in the bank.

We honestly did not want to let go of that little sense of security.

But there was God, once again bidding us to trust Him.

 

So tonight, I paid our bill.

 

The good news is...we had the money to pay the bill!

Praise God for His perfect provision!

 

So I am reporting that although we still need to come up with money for travel, our agency fees are paid in full!  That is a weight off my chest for sure!
