Today was the second day that I made phone calls to potential supporters. So far I have had probably about $300 pledged and I thank God for that. I am starting to realize how much money I really have to raise. It is a little overwhelming how much money and how little time that I have to make this all happen. Our team has a meeting this weekend and hopefully after meeting with the other members of my team I will be encouraged and pushed to confidence in the Lord's faithfulness. I plan on sending out a second wave of letters on Thursday and following those up with calls the end of next week.
On a lighter note, I have begun to see what a privilage it is for God to give me the opportunity to take his gospel, the true gospel that can save lives, to the ends of the earth. As each day comes I become filled with more and more excitement and eagerness to hop on a plane and go. I finish tonight with this request: please pray for my team and our faith in the Lord's promises. Raising support can be a stressful time, especially with deadlines and your prayers would definitely help to reduce our levels of anxiety. Also pray for the hearts of the people in Malaysia that we will come into contact with. God's word says that he goes before us and prepares our path (Malachi 3:1) and I believe that our belief in prayer and its power will affect the effectiveness we have in reaching the hearts in KL. Its time for me to go to bed now, I have class at 9 am tomorrow. I think I will create a sign off phrase to end every post.
