God's Tremendous Blessings

God's tremendous blessings continued to flow into the church. Just to name 2 in particular in Feb.

We received a big sum of tithe from some new regular visitor. We were very shocked to receive such big sum from a local who didn't earn a lot. She gave the sum by hand so we know it is a genuine giving. God really touched our hearts through this sister. We can't help but feel the greatness of God who works wonders in the hearts of people.

We also continued to receive financial blessings from overseas, even in Feb. We are grateful for the blessings. But even more, I am reminded what Pastor Seaward shared on one ocassion, "Where your treasure is, there your heart will be. If your money is invested in God's mission, your heart is in God's mission." Those brothers and sisters who continue to give to Hope Lima and missions, I believe with all my heart that their hearts are in God's mission. They may not be at this point able to GO but their financial giving only tells so loudly that they are global-minded Christians with the world in their hearts like God. Wow.... I really love to partner with many brothers and sisters in global missions.

God, thank you for blessing Hope Lima tremendously. It's my and my wife's privilege to be your witness and proclaimer till our term ends "on earth"......
