God Will Provide

In February 2006 another elder of the church came to me with the church financial statement. It did not look good. Even though I am not an expert at reading financial statements the bottom line was obvious. We were heading into financial problems. It appeared that my part time position would have to be one of the many almost immediate cuts. The senior pastor was out of the country. We approached another church elder. His response was to lead us in a prayer for God to provide for the church. We went to another elder who responded in exactly the same way. In less than a week, following the Wednesday night service the church treasurer called us into the church office and showed us a contribution check for (and I’m not making this up) $100,000.00! Hallelujah!
