In His Hands

Today in church, Pastor Elvis was saying something about placing everything in the hands of God or about Him blessing us or something along those lines, and he then called people to come to the front for prayer. Usually, at this point, I go and play background music for the altar call, but oneof the other band members did. I decided to go to the front and pray with the other people who were up front. Things have been really tight with money, and not having a computer really was making things hard. I have everything I need, but I want to be able to be able to bless the kids just a bit more. I prayed, "God, please provide a way for me to get a little bit extra money so that I can do something awesome for my kids. I know that You're providing all I need, but I want to do just a little bit more. Meet us all where we're at." He then spoke to me:

"Daniel, stop worrying. I've got you in My hands."

Tears started to well up in my eyes. In that moment, I knew it was God.

After church, I went to talk to the pastor. I've been trying for a while now to buy a nice computer for really, really cheap, but it's so hard when I don't have much money nor a job to get money. I asked Pastor Elvis if there was any way we could talk to his friend I was buying the computer from about letting me have it now and then paying the guy later once I could work and get the money. I have no idea why this wasn't brought up before, but Pastor Elvis suggested that I use his wife's computer that was in his office. After arranging things and testing it out, everything worked out! It's not perfect, but the computer works. It's enough to do what I need to do. I actually might have a possible job coming up soon, too!

Now that I have a computer, I'll be able to get out more updates about what's going on here and be able to get those newsletters made!

Also, I'll be posting a new video EVERY MONDAY on this YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/AWayWithWords24. I'm changing things up a bit, too.

Along with music, I'll be adding:

- Meet My Kids (interviews/crazy stuff with the kids I live with)

and

-Missionary Lyfe (an exaggerated vlog-series about what it's like living as a missionary in Tijuana, Mexico)

There's no particular order to what will come next, but it'll be one of the three EVERY MONDAY, so be sure to check me out and let all of your friends/family/neighbors/supermarket ladies know to SUBSCRIBE!¡
