In October my little brother ("35" this week LOL still call him little) got married to a lady in China. He has been waiting for all their paper work to go through which takes anywhere from 8 to 15 months or more to be processed.
In the mean time he is here and his wife and new daughter are still in China. But in April he is going there for a visit and he invited me and my husband to come along. What a wonderful opportunity!
Unfortunately my husband wasn't able to get that week off but being the generous and caring person he is he agreed to let me go to China with my brother if I could come up with the funding to do so.
Let me tell you... the Lord has been opening doors and doors and more doors. It is amazing to see God working. I was able to get most of the plane tickets with points that my husband gets at work. Praise God. The only one I couldn't get that way was the flight inside China. But I was able to save up enough for that and the visa.
I am so excited and I am praising the Lord for everything He is doing to make this happen. God is so good. Never in a million years did I think I would have the chance to go to China. It is such a wonderful opportunity to reach out to others for the Lord. Even though I am not going for ministry purposes I pray that the Lord will open up doors for that as well.
As for raising the funds for the rest of the trip and for blessing others with while I am there well, I am a little behind on that but I am praying that God will open up more doors for that as well. I started selling Daisy Blue Naturals items to help get extra funding for family and ministry work in November. I am just beginning so I have not done very many in home spas yet but I have a big one next monday.
I am praying that that will help me get to my goals for what I need to take to China. That would be such a blessing.
Have any of you been to China? If so did you go and do ministry? Do you have any advise?
It is my prayer that God will use me in China to do what ever He would have me do and to impact lives for Jesus!
I just wanted to share my exciting news with everyone!
Have a wonderful day!
