Be Stretched - Be Still

I wasn’t entirely comfortable with the idea… 

But the least I could do was look… 

—

Jon (The president of Jesus for Asia.) had just said that I needed to get a plane ticket, today! (If you're wondering why I need a plane ticket, read this first.)

So I began looking at flight prices… 

$1400…

$1200…

$1049…

$1300… 

$895… - That looks more workable, I thought.

I checked another website, and found it at $855… 

When I told Jon, the first words out of his mouth were. “Get it!” 

So, I got it! Even though I didn’t have the money. 

I felt stretched… 

Now I had a plane ticket without any of the equipment that I need, and without any money to get the equipment! 

—

The next morning, the Lord woke me up earlier than usual, so I went downstairs to pray… 

I prayed for an hour, but I didn’t hear anything, I didn’t feel anything, or even sense His presence… 

But praise the Lord, feelings are not the foundation of our faith! 

As I opened my bible it sort of fell open to Psalm 46. 

So I started reading, and when I got to verse 10, it sort of jumped off the page at me. 

“Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.”

Wow… 

I don’t need to worry about the equipment, I don’t need to worry about the money, I need to be still, and trust… 

—

God has since provided someone to pay for my airfare, and even though I don’t know where the money will come from for the equipment, I need not be concerned, because, “…My God shall supply all your need according to His riches in Glory by Christ Jesus.” (Phil 4:19)

From my last trip to India.
