BZeal -- Zeal for God's house http://randalmatheny.com/doku.php?id=brazil [You received this email as a subscriber of the Brazil list at associate.com. See unsub information at end.] === Serving needs === by Jeremy Newlin João Pessoa, Brazil I went with Antônio, Vamberto's father, who was baptized last month to get his pension check from the government. For three months he hadn't received any money and needed it desperately to buy medicine. He had tried to get it three or four times before, but nothing had been done. We prayed together during my visit with him that God would help us get the problem resolved. The next day, we walked into the government building around 8:15 a.m. and we were out by about 8:25 a.m. It took the 10 minutes because I had to ask for directions. God is still working and active in our lives today. Praise Him! Now Antônio can buy his medicine and other things that he needs without depending on others. He was very grateful. As for me, it feels good to serve. It truly is better to give than to receive. ----- BZeal focuses on the progress of the gospel in Brazil and around the world. Please share this email with friends.
