1 Timothy 6:17-19
" Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. Command them to do good, top be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of life, that is truly life. "
After I read this today it makes our life style make so much more sense...
Why does the bible talk about riches like it is uncertain when the world says the exact opposite to us, education, money and jobs that bring money is what IS CERTAIN when nothing else is. This is the WHOLE goal of most people in this world, security. And yet the bible says even in riches there is none. Either way rich or poor we need to lean on Jesus.
We are in a really hard place financially right now and it really feels like it would be better to be working and getting rid of this
access" debt we cant pay off right now. God needs to speak and we need to obey.
Please pray for us and let us know if you are willing to help, our flights to canada are $1900.00 MORE then we expected. We thought we had saved enough up to now for them, but have got the last quote with the new fuel surcharges, and are almost 2000 short.
If you are willing please let my mom know, or us personally. We need to buy our flights home in the next two weeks.
When we are home in Canada Vinjelu will be working, because it looks like we wont have a choice, which is fine! If you know of any jobs please let us know, something making more then $15/hr.
Thanx guys, love you all!

Marvin Daka
Marvin Daka
Marvin Daka finished his DTS with YWAM Lusaka last year in October. He left DTS with a heart for rural church planting. This is his heart, his big dream. He went to find a job immediately after DTS, and thank GOD found work, and worked right up until he came and joined us on staff here in YWAM Lusaka. He felt a good first step for him would be to be under a YWAM ministry for a few years before going out on the "frontiers" planting churches. He worked and saved enough to pay for his fees for 5 months.
Coming up this May 2011 he has nothing else, and has not found any support from his Zambian church who feel they dont have anything to give him, and his family and friends.
Marvin is in need of $60 a month to stay in missions.
This is a GREAT opportunity to support a LOCAL missionary here in Zambia, with a heart for his people.
Please would consider supporting him. If he was to have $60 a month, this would be absolute bare minimum. No spending money at all. So he could of corse use more like $200 a month.
THANK YOU
and I look forward to hearing from you
