Today Yesterday marks the three month point before our move to Orlando, June 12 11 (I better get this straight by then!) Three months is enough time to get everything done if everything goes smoothly, but it’s not enough time if everything goes as it normally does. Foremost on our minds is the amount of money we need for this move, but foremost in our memory is also how God provided what we needed for our last move. In one month’s time God dramatically met our need. The lead-up to that month was faith-building and traumatic, and the time immediately following it was extraordinarily sweet.

We have yet to experience the same level of lead-up trauma this time around, but there is still plenty of time.

Ronnie Stevens, our pastor, preached from John 11 the last four weeks. The story of Lazarus, where Jesus resolved the situation four days after the deadline, makes me wonder if our window of faith-building trauma might extend beyond June 12!

Nevertheless, tonight we saw part of God’s provision for our needs; a family minivan. Our friends, from whom we purchased our all-time best minivan value eight years ago, have another one to sell us. It’s in our price range, i.e., nearly free, and should last long enough to allow us to get back on our feet in the US.
