Many times we see God’s hand in our lives and many times we miss it completely because of our busy lives. In December, we made a huge step of faith, deciding on a date that Harold would quit his secular job to devote his time to full time to completing our team of partners. This date was May 1, 2009, which was of course, based on discussion with FamilyLife, prayer and encouragement to set a goal.
Recently, God showed us exactly why He led us to pick the date of May 1. Most of you are aware that Harold travels for National Seminars,conducting seminars around the U.S. He “happened” to call the person that does the scheduling
for an unrelated mater and found out that the topic he has been teaching of late (Marketing) was being discontinued after May 1. This means, he would have been out of work after May 1. Does God know what He is doing? Of course. Is this coincidence? Of course not. Are we lucky we picked that date? Definitely not! God is amazing!
As we occasionally ponder why God has chosen us for full time ministry at this time in our lives, we simply have to marvel at His provisionof prayer and financial partners and that He knows the perfect timing for us to report to FamilyLife. When secular work is no longer available, God will have provided the funds to begin full time support raising followed by ministry with FamilyLife. How Great our God Is!
