Before I move along in my blog series Every Day Miracles I’d like to pause for a moment to say many, MANY thanks to all those who participated in World Race Day ($11 on 11/11). You guys FAR exceeded my expectations. Honestly. My fundraisers haven’t exactly been what you’d call “spot on,” and I told a friend I would be really happy if we’d raised $66 from the $11 on 11/11 event.
Well. Let me tell you. The donation processing center has finally updated my account with donations from yesterday, 11/11, and I’ve now learned that we didn’t raise $66. We didn’t raise $166 or even $266. No, we raised…are you ready?
$436!!!!
Yes, you read that right! Four hundred thirty-six dollars! That’s more than I’ve raised in ALL MY OTHER FUNDRAISERS COMBINED.
I am truly, truly thankful and so very happy to make this announcement. What else can I say except God is AMAZING. He continues to wow me every day. I am in awe of His kindness, His mercy, and his mighty power.
AMEN!
As Paul gathered an armful of sticks and was laying them on the fire, a poisonous snake, driven out by the heat, bit him on the hand. The people of the island saw it hanging from his hand and said to each other, “A murderer, no doubt! Though he escaped the sea, justice will not permit him to live!”But Paul shook off the snake into the fire and was unharmed. Acts 28:3-5
