Early November Digging a
Well received a call to send 100 bibles to Nigeria. When the call came through,
I told my friends we would pray about it.
When I hung up the phone,
I said to myself, "There is no possible way Digging a Well can send 100 bibles
to Nigeria in such a short time frame.
Because
- My faith isn't strong enough to believe we can
accomplish this
- Funds were nearly nothing this entire year
- Fundraising takes time and energy and I have none
- Order bibles, shipping and getting to our contact
people takes a lot of time
The second or third day
after receiving this call, as I was driving home from work, I felt the Lord
remind me how little faith was and that I should at least try the Lord and see
if his power was great enough to supply such a large demand for the ministry in
such a small window of time.
Within the same week, we
had 100 bibles sitting on the doorstep of my house and on Sunday of that same week,
we met the family traveling to Nigeria and supplied them with the
bibles.
When you serve a God far
greater than your tiny faith, he is able to break down the walls and cause
great things to happen, teaching our own faith to grow as we exercise it.
Shown below are a few of
the photos we received from the trip to Nigeria.
