He Is Our Provider
God provides. Stop a moment to ponder that statement. I can testify to the fact that God provides a way, the means, a friend, a helper, salvation and hope. Let me give you an example that I experienced recently.

Useful For Living
Have you discovered that business negotiations can be rather tricky? My friends at Monkey Point, Nicaragua are doing something unique in handling a complicated situation.

Rescue the Weak
Chickens, pigs and goats, pots, pans and plants. Let’s say that again…chickens, pigs and goats, pots, pans and plants. Unbelievably, these are the things that Rivers of the World (ROW) has been asked for by the people of the Mathari Valley who have lost so much in the recent fighting in Kenya.

Stay Connected
Oh, you will get a kick out of this! I just looked at my calendar and I realized that during the next two weeks I have appointments to see three different physicians. As if that isn’t enough, I also have an appointment with a dentist.

Unchanging Lord
If you make your living by traveling often then you can count on a few things that are always constant. You can be certain there will be traffic, road construction and there will always be somebody who decides they are going to have a wreck the day you’re trying to get somewhere important. The other thing you can count on during your travels is seeing friends.

One Lord
One of the highlights of my travels is visiting with folks across our radio listening audience. I recently had so much fun visiting two churches in Omaha, Neb. Several of the men took me hunting and we just had the best time! They took a Georgia boy out in nine-degree weather and about a foot of snow! It was incredible.

Joint Heirs
Do you know what Vietnam, Nicaragua, Belize, Congo and Brazil all have in common? During March, Rivers of the World (ROW) had teams stationed in each of those countries sharing the love of God in Jesus Christ. They were in central Vietnam, Belize and Congo and in eastern Brazil and Nicaragua. Regardless of where the teams were, their message of Jesus Christ was the same.

To Win Many
No matter how often I hear people say, “do you know I think the Lord is calling me to ministry,” I never grow tired of it. I just finished being a keynote speaker at a mission’s conference here in Georgia. After the conference, my new friend, Mark, came up to me and said, “We’ve got to go eat lunch and we’ve got to do it right now.”

Get Busy
When we think big for the Lord, it does not necessarily have to involve large numbers of people. Rivers of the World (ROW) is thinking big this month in the Congo and in Brazil with what we call microeconomic projects. In Kenya ROW helped a man buy two chickens, which enabled him to start an egg business. Another microeconomic project is taking a sewing machine to the middle of the Congo and teaching people how to sew and how to turn that skill into a job that provides school uniforms for children.

Mighty Is He
Here is your assignment for today…think big for the Lord. Too often we think in little terms and we pitifully tell God there is no way He could possibly use us because we are too young, old, inexperienced, uneducated, etc.
