Hugs from God

My roommate and I say that the sunshine is a hug from God, sometimes when we're walking and it's sunny we just stop and let the rays of warmth and light embrace us. This week has been full of hugs from God for me, full of gifts reminding me that he is good and he will provide a way for me to follow his call.
So, I few things happened this since my last post that I would like to update you on. I got all my paperwork together and sent in to apply for my visa. On Monday, I was full of anxiety over reaching my goal of 50% funding for The Ivory Coast, I could hardly breathe I was so stressed. I kept praying and telling myself to trust God, to turn all my anxiety and fears over to him. By Tuesday afternoon it had happened, the goal was reached and exceeded. I started crying because God did exactly what he said he would do, he provided want was needed when it was needed. So thank you, all of you who were praying for this and all of you who have support me financially. Thank you for letting God use you and joining me in this ministry. I'm currently 56% funded, which is awesome but also means there's still work to be done before I can board that plane.
