There will be another one, probably next month.<\/p>\n<p>And suddenly, the Lord brought back to memory. I still remembered the shock that I got looking at my past historical receipts. The year that my first daughter was born, I gave a large donation. I was tearing looking at that, because those were difficult years, and the Lord had been faithful during those years, even till today.<\/p>\n<p>This year is also similar. We are bigger family, and more needs. And income ins&#8217;t improved much. We are always thankful for God&#8217;s providence. It shows that God provides. Down the line, when I would remember back, it is God&#8217;s faithfulness that we were able to give.<\/p>\n<p>How great is our God! He provides us with much that we can give generously. Blessed be the Lord.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, finally managed to transfer the amount of money that supposed to be given over a year ago.
