Capping the igloo

Wow, God has been doing amazing things for me, and providing always enough for me to keep moving forward! Last sunday I sold vegetables that my mom grew, and I raised ~$200! So, the progress continues, and I'm at about $4000 or so.

But, I'm entering that fog of how to pull everything together. It's like building an igloo, you start shoveling snow, and building bricks of ice. You go at it with a gusto and about an hour later you realize that maybe the size you made your igloo will take a bit longer than you initially thought. ($1000 in funds) You want to get discouraged, but you keep going, and watch the walls be built up, and it's incredible to see everything start to shape into a recognizable form. ($3000) But then something interesting happens. Once you start getting to the top, the blocks you were using that made everything work at the base, don't quite work anymore. Before you could just place a block and keep moving, now you need a hand to hold it in place as the next block is secured, which also requires two hands. Before long you realize that you have to hold it up and build at the same time, and that takes at least two people.

So here I am, reaching the final stretch, and I find myself needing an extra hand or two, as there's just too many things to do. But, I do know there's at least one other who's helping, and that's Jesus. It's hard to see him, because I'm inside the igloo holding and placing blocks as he hands them to me, but pretty soon, it'll be done, and I'll be able to walk outside and admire what he's done.
