My Needs for Your Prayers



I have learned over the years that God answers prayers.
It is a fact that when we ask then we receive.
I have found that my faith can be weak to trust God to meet my needs.
But when I share my list of needs with others then they pray.
After a while God guides me and He provides.

I am still in a season of transition.
I am living one day at a time.
It is not pleasant but necessary for a little while longer.

Yesterday I had a big breakthrough in preparing the short videos for online fund raising.
I have the rough versions ready this morning and I hope to shoot the videos this afternoon.
All I need is some time to concentrate on completing the slide show.
Then I need for the community college dining commons to be reasonably quiet.
Putting that online is a small but important step toward appealing to strangers for funds.
The crowd funding platform will allow me to make many contacts and some of them will give.

Also there has been positive news about the Marriot connection.
That major support could begin in less than a week.
I would continue on this same path but my basic needs would be met.

By the grace of God my stay at the homeless shelter is paid up until August 7.
Mostly God has provided that need 3 nights at a time at 10 dollars per night.
Pray for God to guide and provide again just as He has these past weeks.

There has been a mix up in my computer record at the shelter.
I need to go this afternoon to untangle that matter.
Please pray for that to go smoothly.

Besides that need there are also the following.
31 dollars due on my cell phone by August 10
Also there are the following needs for your prayers.
Bus fare to go to church on Sunday
Coin laundry
Bottled water, soda, Gatorade
Fees
Margin

Right now I have less than 3 dollars.
Thankfully the shelter offers 3 modest meals a day.

Also there is a ministry opportunity that God has met many times it the past.
It is for 120 dollars.
Hopefully that need will be met this time but maybe not.

Here is a summary of needs for your prayers.
30 dollars for 3 nights at homeless shelter
31 dollars for cell phone for a month
29 dollars minimum for other
100 dollars as minimum fund raising goal
120 dollars for ministry opportunity
220 dollars total

More would be better but that is all I have the faith for in this moment.



Please pray for God to guide my thoughts, words and deeds.
May these needs be met on time.

And hopefully in less than a week the crowd funding site will be generating funds.


Shalom
