Manna 4 U

A New Thing!

I'm Singin' a new Song...cuz He's doin' a New Thing!
His mercies are New every morning!

As the prophecy for 2008 said...this was going to be a year of new beginnings. And, right on time...in the Spring of New Beginnings...God brought us into a new season!

We've been helping a family run a food ministry out of their garage. We've been blessed & fed by it & really wanted to give back with time & labors. So...they were glad to oblige that desire in us! We had been helping them out for a couple of months...also helping the God-Father' (he holds the non-profit papers & calls the shots) of the organization...in pick-ups & deliveries. We've been enjoying the opportunity to give back & getting to know these two families.

Well, the family whose garage the food is given from asked us if we would pray about taking over! Whoa! Amazingly, I have had several dreams, even before ever moving to KCMO that were about a huge supply warehouse I would have authority in. In fact, 5 successive dreams in all! My best friend also had a dream when we first moved out here...about Skip with this HUGE refrigerator full of food that he was blessing people with. So, it seemed we already had our answer before we even knew this would come about!

It has been our heart since before even making this move, that we would be mother & father to those who longed for family here. We wanted to be a source of His blessing to His people here. It seems this desire was birthed in the very heart of God Himself! It broke our heart when our son was out here & in need & we were not here to supply for him. We longed to come out & be the vehicle of supply to those in need. Well....here we are!

The food ministry, "Manna 4 U" moved to our garage on March 31st, 2008. This is our 'new beginning', #1 for 2008. Who knows what else God has in store for us! He's got lots of good plans for us! We have 120 families/people on our email list that come & receive food from our garage. It comes from several sources, three times a week. We open our garage door and they come! And they come...and they come!!! I feel like I get to live out the Abrahamic Covenant...to be blessed and to be a blessing!

Oh, Bless the Lord, for He is Good

April is Here!!!


WOW! One of my favorite months! This is the month I was born...and the month I was married to my dear husband some 26 years ago! I have continued my scripture meditation & journalling. This is a journal I created for my worship team's Worship With the Word set. This is the first page for the first 'cycle' in our singing journey through Psalm 145. {Images are 'clickable' for a closer look.}
