The little miracles along the way

It's a mistery for me to know exactly how God is going to provide for my Discipleship Training School with YWAM this January. I'm fighting between trying to raise it all myself, and/or simply relying on God to make it happen. I have been faced with some challenges lately. Like losing my wallet twice in a month, being told my hours at work are going to be cut, and finding room-mates so my rent is lower. But I have seen these crazy amazing acts of provision. For example, weather my own personal clumsiness or a soveriegn plan of God to show me a miracle, I managed to lose my wallet twice this month. (The first two times in my life, mind you). And each time I lost my wallet, I had it mailed back to me, with nothing of great importance missing! The second time it was lost for nearly 10 days and it was finally mailed back to me from Santa Clarita California. How amazing is that! The incidents really confirm that God hears even the most insignificant seeming prayers! I mean, it was amazing enough that I got it mailed back to me first, but twice in a row! God, you are amazing! I am also blessed by those who God has lead to donate something to me. Many times, it's a surprise who the Lord chooses to be His vessel of financial blessing! And that's not all! I have found an excellent place to get travel vaccines to go to Belize! Right at Fred Meyers Pharmacy! I also, just can't express how greatful I am that I have been able to prepare for a second fundraising dinner this Friday! What makes this so amazing is that I have done little work in planning. Thanks to my amazing mom and Grandma who are doing most of the planning. My grandma was able to reserve a room which seats approximately 100 people absolutely free! All of these little provisions and miracles shows me that God must be behind my plan to go to Belize and train with YWAM!!! I mean, really this isn't "my" plan it's His, because after all He gave us the great commision. I didn't wake up one day and say: I think it would be a good idea to tell everyone about Jesus! It's His idea, and I need to remember this if I'm ever going to fully trust Him! I am just so greatful that I can be a part of our Heavenly Father's plan to win the world to Himself. "God grant me the grace to only do what you want me to do. Grant me the strenght to go where you want me to go, and grant me the willingness to only say "yes" to you!"
