As you read the accounts below, please consider a financial donation to this ministry. Almost six weeks ago, I began a quest to raise $10,000 by this Sunday. To date I have received $3,725. I will receive another $400 this Friday. That is a far cry from the goal I set. Please prayerfully consider how you might support the incredible work that God has me doing here.

More Divine Appointments

Last week I had another day that went nothing like I had intended – but every bit as God intended. I had plans to meet with an accountability partner – something we should all do on a regular basis. But, first thing in the morning, I had to go to the VA to take care of a couple of things for myself. As it turned out, I could not see the person at the VA that I wanted to see. So, I did one other thing and headed out – less time than I anticipated. In the meantime, my friend called to see if we could change our plans. At that point, we agreed to meet at my house. When I got home, I did a few things at my desk and then she called to let me know it just was not going to happen. So, I picked up on a few other things I needed to do. I decided to go visit a client in the hospital – something that was not on the calendar for that day. However, as God would ordain, that was exactly where I needed to be at exactly the time I showed up. Physical Therapy was there early and his daughter was not able to be there to help out. It was much needed for someone else to be there to assist in this task and I was there just when God wanted me to be there. If my day had gone as I had planned I would not have been where God needed me.

Yesterday I had another incredible day ordered by God. I have been helping this family. First, it was the daughter whose husband has dementia at the age of 29. It is really a sad case – something none of us should ever have to experience. Several months ago, I took her to apply for disability for him. While it is not much money, every little bit helps. The Social Security worker that day was so kind to us. At the end of the interview she even acknowledged that it was probably the hardest case she has ever taken. She admitted holding back tears. Yesterday, I took this young woman’s mother to apply for disability for the son. Another sad case. I went to her house before to make sure we had everything we needed and to pray with her. I prayed for God to ordain the visit with Social Security and to give this lady peace. I encouraged her to let me bear the burden of making sure all went well. When we got to Social Security, the first lady we saw was not encouraging. But, that always happens. So, our name was put up for someone to maybe help us. We were called back by a lady who looked familiar to me. However, as many times as I have been to that office they are all familiar to me. As we sat down I realized something. This was the same lady that helped her daughter and me several months ago. It was awesome to make that connection and tell the Social Security work who this lady with me was. She remembered and was very helpful. We needed to try to connect with her son on the phone for the worker to get permission to take the application from his mom. The very first try, he answered the phone and gave permission. The whole thing went so well. And my client clearly agreed that it was God’s hand in the process.

I lost a client today. He had been in the hospital for over a month. We were pushing to get him discharged home this weekend. He went home alright – just not the home we thought. But, God is so merciful. This man fought the Gospel for years. Yet, he accepted Christ in the ER when he first came to the hospital. And we had several opportunities to confirm the sincerity of his profession. It is never too late for someone to be saved. The thief who hung on the cross next to Jesus was saved only hours before he died. This is a perfect example of the same thing. God’s timing is not our timing. Please pray for the Levy family as they lay him to rest.

Again – these are only two of many examples of the Lord using me in people’s lives. There is such a great need. Your support is greatly appreciated.

God Bless you all.

I had a Divine Appointment last Wednesday. My day started early. I had to bring someone to get some fasting labs. The lab was crowded and it took longer than expected. I had to call her next appointment to let them know she was running late. My next appointment was picked up much later than expected. However, she was on time for her appointment. We had two legs to her appointment. In an effort to get her to somewhere she wanted to go, I was pushing to finish up. It is in those moments that I get anxious. I have trouble being patient with people. And, if I come across someone who is in the mood for talking – which means they stop working – I have to work hard to just let it be. After I dropped this lady off, I had a gap in my schedule. So, I called someone to see if I could drop off a check to her. She was not there. So, I decided to head to my apartment and check the mail. The mail carrier was down the street taking a break in her truck. I pulled up to chat with her for a minute. It was then that the Divine Appointment took place. I heard someone call my name. When I turned around I saw the mother of a gentleman that I have been trying to help. She happened to be dropping him off after grocery shopping. An attempt had been made to apply for food stamps on-line (unsuccessfully.) We talked a minute about his situation and then I remembered that I had a food stamp application in my car. So, I got it out and went inside and we filled it out. Now, none of this would have happened if the lab had been on time and we got to the next appointment earlier and then the next … Well, you get the picture.

Over the last 6-1/2 years, this has happened over and over. God has ordained my steps in a day that takes me to a random (or not so random) encounter with someone who needs my help.

Three weeks ago, I began a quest to raise $10,000 in 45 days. It is the halfway mark and I have not received near half of the goal. At this point, I have received donations and commitments for around $3,000.

I ask again, that you each prayerfully consider a donation to this ministry to help sustain the work that God has me doing.

In the last two weeks I have had over 30 appointments. That is an average of three appointments a day. And that does not count the various phone consults that take place on a daily basis. No appointment takes less than an hour and most take at least three hours. I have had several appointments in the last two weeks that have taken four hours or more.

God continues to send new people to me for advice and direction in healthcare decisions. This Saturday, September 11th, I will be speaking before a group of people about options in healthcare and how to access benefits.

Two weeks ago, I sent out an update and began a quest to raise $10,000 in the next 45 days. With 31 days to go, that goal seems insurmountable. But, I know that God is bigger than that and I have to trust that He will provide just what is needed. To date, I have collected just under $1,500 (a far cry from $10,000) with a possible commitment of $500. I receive $350 in regular committed monthly donations.

I ask that you each prayerfully consider how God would have you support this ministry financially. If 100 people gave $100 each that would reach the $10,000 goal. If 200 people gave $50 each that would also reach the $10,000 goal. Even if you can only give $10, that will help to reach the goal.

Thank you all for your continued prayers and support.
