"Michael"

I wanted to report a direct answer to prayer from Lily! Rosa shared this with me recently and I want to give God all the glory by sharing this with the world!!!

Last weekend they were getting low on food again. Mama was concerned and cried out to the Lord to provide for them. She asked God to send Michael (a Mennonite friend who has occasionally brought food to Lily). In fact, she said she spent a lot of time crying out to the Lord throughout the morning for Michael to come. Later that day, some trucks pulled up with food. The children ran inside and got Mama. Then she and the children ran out to the trucks and said, "Thank you, Michael, thank you, Michael!" Rosa was crying and praising the Lord. Then this man came out of the truck with a real confused look on his face. She kept on saying, "Thank you, Michael,thank you!" This man said, "I don't think we've met before. I just learned about your orphanage a few days ago. I've never been here before. This morning the Lord woke me up very early and told me to bring food. That's why I'm here." Rosa was crying and so blessed by this answer to prayer. She began to apologize for calling him Michael and shared her request from the early morning. This stranger than interruped and said, "Mama Rosa, I need to tell you one more thing. My name is Michael."

I share this story with you so you will be inspired to cry out to the Lord...and expect results!

I'm reminded of the song, "Lets Just Praise the Lord" !!!
