So, I've been back in the States for over a month now. Unfortunately I still have no job, and over the past few days, Satan was really letting me have it with that, and a few other things. But fortunately, last night I had the opportunity to hang out with a group that has been meeting on Saturday nights at a local coffee shop. I never had any doubts regarding God's goodness or the fact that He would see me through this current trial, but it was still discouraging. One of the great things about God is His unfailing love. "Your love never fails, it never gives up, it never runs out on me."
On a related note: I've been offered several thousand dollars worth of carpet cleaning equipment for the low low price of nothing. A brother in the Lord has expressed His desire to give away the tools that the Lord allowed him to use to provide in the past for his family. He has recently been asked to be the full-time pastor of a church and his new congregation has a heart to pay him a salary. After much prayer and consideration over the matter he felt the Lord putting it on his heart that "When Colin returns from Honduras, he's going to be looking for something to do for work." I felt overwhelmed when he told me the first time. It didn't really register or make sense to me. Why would this guy give so much? What is he smoking? Lol. The truth is God has given him much. This brother feels that the blessing that the machinery has been for him, should continue to be used and not just left in a basement to fall apart. I don't fully understand it, but then again God's ways aren't our ways. I'm still going to try to find a job for the time being until carpet-cleaning starts to be able to sustain me. I'm not looking to get rich off this, I just want to provide my needs for living and ministry. I hope through this blessing to me that I can simply continue to bless others.
Well, may grace and peace be with you and your house. I got nothing else.
