Let FAITH arise!!

1 John 15:14. "This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. 15And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.

This is how I want to encourage you to live. TRUSTING that God knows everything we NEED and want before we even ask for it excites me! Knowing that we have a GOOD Father who WANTS to help us~ Not because we NEED certain things but because He is just...that... good.   I want to help faith arise tonight. This scripture sums up this blog... its a CONFIDENCE that we have IN God... when we ask for HIS will in our lives... He hears us. Now, I know there is a timing issue which is where He gets to work on patience and all the other fruits of the Spirit but knowing that our God LISTENS and HEARS us... gosh.

How about taking a moment and enjoying the peace and rest that comes with that kind of knowledge. KNOWING He hears me and doesn't just tune me out for asking a question or a request of some sort. I know that living in Haiti, I have learned to tune out the noise but God, my Daddy, doesn't tune me out; in fact... he KNOWS what I am going to ask for before I even ask. So with that being said I would like to introduce you to the newest addition of Empowering Haitian Moms.... BIG RED!

This 2001 Ford Expedition has been gifted to EHM this past week when GOD asked someone to give! I clearly wasn't going around asking for cars... I planned to work for it but God placed it on a families heart to GIVE.

Most of you know that we have been praying for a vehicle for quite some time now and that is why I decided to make a trip to America. Our goal was $7,000 For His glory, His service and His mission.

Now to ship it to Haiti, I am going to drive it to Florida, put it on a ship and send it on its way. The tricky part is... when it gets to Haiti, we have to get it out of customs. $7,000 is still my goal since this is a bigger and newer vehicle than I EXPECTED (Thank you Jesus) and it will cost more for customs. BUT I am excited to see what God does! My past 7 months of living in Haiti full time are a walking testimony to God's faithfulness and DESIRE to bless His children..

This blog is not about what we have but what GOD IS DOING. He is the great "I Am" and is in control of all things which is why we give Him ALL THE GLORY. I want to encourage everyone reading this to continue to be faithful to Him, be obedient and run the race. God is listening, hearing and excited to pour out His love!
2 Corinthians 9:8
And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

PLEASE pray for us to raise the remaining balance so that Big Red doesn't sit in the customs yard! :-) We have raised $1,400 so far and ARE believing God will hit the mark! THANK God that the Haitian people will now be getting more health care, medical attention at a faster rate, safer transportation for us and teams and God will be exalted through it all! No need to ask for those things... its already in motion! Thank YOU for being a HUGE part of this journey and I KNOW that you are feeling God's love and HOPE for your circumstances right now!

Please let us know how to be praying for you so that we can join along side you!
