Here’s an example of God’s faithfulness, care for the needy, and “guiding, then providing!” One focus for May is mass food distribution to communities (above and beyond the daily loads to soup kitchens and centres)
So, we had the desire, and the plan, yet not the ability. We were taking it a step at a time. Then, upon visiting a food seller who will often donate a couple bags of potatoes or onions, he suddenly added 238 packs of sweetcorn! Wow!
And there’s more. At the next stop, the owner pointed us to a half bin of butternut, saying “take that for projects.” A few minutes later, he returned and said “actually, take that half bin, AND this full bin here as well! Oh, and take all these pockets of oranges!” We were just amazed and so so thankful!
Because of this above-and-beyond supply, we were able to give fresh fruit and vegetables to two soup kitchens, a drug rehab, a quadriplegic home, and still have enough to give out over 150 individual parcels in two communities!
More than anything, this reminds us to follow God, and He will make a way to care for both us and the many dear ones in need of help. Love never fails, for God is Love. (1 John 4:8)
P.S. stay tuned for more mass food projects this month, by His Grace!
