MANNA - Silver and gold have I none...

William Levi, head of Operation Nehemiah  www.operationsnehemiah.org,   had called us from South Sudan early Saturday morning, May 10th , but we had missed his call. 
When we finally realized he had called, we were heading out on a prayer walk… so we listened to his message and heard that they needed $3500 in order to finish helping to build the sister church in another village and for other projects they wanted to complete in the next two weeks before they return to the USA on May 26th.  In his message he asked if our East Office had any funds, but we did not have anything to help, so we decided to take our prayer walk and call after we had prayed. We also talked with the Kirkman's who were keeping an eye on donations coming in at the West Office.  They had received a call from William in the middle of the night, so they knew the need and after checking the mail for new donations they determined there was $700 available, so after much prayer, we called William to report that. When we finally reached William in the early afternoon here/ evening there God had already provided all that they needed!! (we believe from there in South Sudan!)

Oh what a joy to not have everything we need, so that we are forced to look to God alone and find Him more faithful than we ever hoped. 

YOU ARE FAITHFUL!! 
That reminds me of a new favorite song… FAITHFUL
by Steven Curtis Chapman

I am broken, I am bleeding, I'm scared and I'm confused,
but You are faithful. Yes You are faithful.

I am weary, unbelieving. God please help my unbelief!
Cuz You are faithful. Yes You are faithful.

I will proclaim it to the world. I will declare it to my heart
And sing it when the sun is shining. I will scream it in the dark.

You are faithful! You are faithful!
When you give and when You take away, even then still Your name is faithful!
You are faithful!
And with everything inside of me, I am choosing to believe
You are faithful.

I am waiting for the rescue that I know is sure to come,
cuz You are faithful. Yes You are faithful.

I've dropped anchor in Your promises, and I am holding on,
cuz You are faithful. God You are faithful.

I will proclaim it to the world. I will declare it to my heart
And sing it when the sun is shining. I will scream it in the dark.

You are faithful! You are faithful!
When you give and when You take away, even then still Your name is faithful!
You are faithful!  And with everything inside of me,
I am choosing to believe You're faithful.

So faithful…

Though I cannot have the answer that I'm wanting to demand,
I'll remember You are God and everything is in Your hand.
In Your hands you hold the sun, the moon, the stars up in the sky,
for the sake of Love, You hung Your own Son on the cross...to die…

& You are faithful… Yes, You are faithful...
When you give and when You take away, even then, 

great is Your faithfulness!   Great is Your faithfulness!

And with everything inside of me,
I am choosing to believe You're faithful!
Oh, oh, oh...
Oh, oh, oh...
When you give and when You take away, even then still Your name
is faithful! You are faithful!
And with everything inside of me, I am choosing to believe...

...You're faithful…
