🙌 It's the Friday Call to Worship! 🙌

Our missional family has the benefit of being keenly aware of God's miraculous provision each month when bills are paid and food is on the table. God gives us what we need, when we need it. Not more or less. When we've tried to increase our monthly support to fully cover our needs without those "please, please, please" eeky squeaky prayers, the funds don't come. There's always space for a miracle in our budget. The real miracle is knowing we need God and finding Him in our need.

There have been many times, including this week, when deficit screamed rather than squeak. We prayed. We did the legwork. Deadlines pressed. There was not enough.

When the bankrupt widow cried to Elisha after she lost her husband and was about to lose her sons, he asked her, "What do you have in the house?" (2 Kings 4:2)

When the disciples felt the weight of a hillside full of families unable to travel home with their hunger, Jesus asked, "How many loaves do you have? Go and see." (Mark 6:38)

The widow gave her one jar of oil, and a little boy gave his lunch. They put what was in their hands into God's, and it mulitplied until every need was met.

This same miracle happened to us this week on Facebook marketplace. A large sum pressed hard. There were no resources. We looked at what we had and found one thing, not worth enough but worth something. We put it in God's hands while posting it for sale. The same day, a Christ-follower and perfect stranger to us, purchased it for more than it was worth and asked if he could help raise more funds!

Miracles on the marketplace. Miracles in your workplace, classroom, traffic jam, dinner table. Provision in your deficit. I'm praising God today because He's an everyday, everywhere, marketplace, "What do you have in your house?" kind of God. When we don't see a way, He IS the Way. When there's not enough, He IS enough.
