God Always Provides!

Welcome to another Corner Blog! This month I want to tell you about an experience we had here at Comforting Hearts Ministries.
We are going through a rough financial time right now and our Non-Profit permit for our mailing is about to expire.
On February 5 of this year we have to pay the Post Office $180.00 for 2009. Just to have the blessing of saving on postage. And believe me it is a considerable savings in comparison with $.42 stamps.
Well, we sent out an urgent e-mail explaining the situation an asking our friends and clients for help in raising the money.
Let me tell you I was nervous. Every time I went to my e-mail I heard the sound of crickets! No one was responding.
Well, yesterday we received 3 pledges totaling over what we needed for the Post office.
I had been discouraged for days because I was relying on people to supply our needs. I should have been relying on God who has never let us down.
Another example of how God provides is that last year we budgeted $5,000 for the year but it cost us over $8,000. And God provided every penny. This year we are trusting God for $10,000 for our budget. That’s what you call a faith budget! Because we have no regular source of income. No church supports us. Please pray for us this year that God will provide not only funds but guidance.
