What an incredible day today was! Ever since I made the decision to follow God's leading and pursue moving to Brazil I have seen God do mighty things... but today was one of those days where He just kept showing me His goodness over and over again! I was planning to start recording this journey once I arrived in Brazil, but I decided today was as good a day as any to start sharing...
I have been praying and waiting for 6 weeks now to hear that my visa has been approved in Brasilia. When I received an email from the secretary at PACA this morning I was nervous to read it... but it was good news! My visa is almost completed there, so it should only been another week or two before it is approved and I can apply for my visa here. This is great news because it can take months for work visas to be approved, I know that God has heard, and is answering, the prayers of so many!
About an hour after I read that email I received another email. I sent out nearly 80 prayer and support letters last week, and today I got word of my first official supporter! The second email informed me that $1,200 in support was being sent to the PACA Foundation! I serve an amazing God!
Later this afternoon I had 3 different people ask me how they could give financially ... people who didn't even know that I was trying to raise support! God is always good, regardless of our circumstances, but today was a day where His love and kindness were so obvious I couldn't help but see it over and over again... and all I can do is praise and thank Him!
