A cloud is rising...

In worship this morning while I was just enjoying myself in the Lord's presence, a story was brought to mind. I didn't remember much of this story but I knew immediately that God was speaking of His provision for me.

The story was that of Elijah and his servant (1 Kings 18:41-46). It started out with Elijah telling Ahab that "there is the sound of heavy rain". Then Elijah went on top of mount Carmel and cried out to the Lord. Six times he stopped praying to ask his servant to go look towards the sea if rain was coming, but it wasn't until the seventh time that the servant actually saw "a cloud as small as a man's hand rising from the sea."

There is a lot of parallel's between this story and my situation. Since the beginning of this school I have been telling my classmates that "I am believing God for a miracle". So far many miracles has happened. My 1st quarter was payed off, I had an awesome spring break, God spoke to me through a Dutch clog....just to name a few.
During the last week I saw God's provision twice. The first one was when I entered my room and found $25 in an envelope with my name on it (just when I was about to run out of spending money). The second one is that someone send $10 for my school fees. Both I have no idea who it is.
So in a way I am seeing the little cloud coming, and I am believing for the rest of my money ($4680) to arrive before May 14 so I we can buy our tickets for Cambodia. Does it sound crazy? Of course it does, but since I've been walking with God that's how my life has been....CRAZY
