God Comes Through

As many of you are aware, we have a struggling new company that has been trying to grow during the tough economic times.  No banks will loan money for purchase orders and we have had to rely on friends and Factors.  Factors charge an enormous rate of interest on the money but it is the only money available in today's climate. 

Banks will loan money but want to you have the same amount you are borrowing in liquid assets.  If I had the money in liquid assets, I wouldn't be asking for a line of credit to get purchase orders and inventory in place.

So during the past five years we have developed a faith in the Lord that I never had to have in all my life.  We learned first hand that the Lord is never early, never late, but always a last minute God to the rescue in building our faith. 

Now I could tell you I am smart enough to figure things out for myself, but we all know that is not the case.  So time after time, the Lord shows up in our lives and other people's lives to give us just enough to continue moving forward.

Our case in point this week has been that we have new orders from Wal-Mart for Identa-Label to be in all stores beginning June 1st.  But they also require that we have replacement material sitting in the warehouse for weekly pickups.  We still are looking to the Lord to deliver the funds for that inventory, but now let me tell you about how the Lord continues to come through.

A requirement of Wal-Mart is that they will have a tractor trailer at our dock every week and we have to quickly load orders. This requires a forklift for the job. We do not have the money to spend on a forklift at this time. But guess what? 

On March 2nd we had a tornado come through our property and the only thing it destroyed besides 63 trees was our cargo trailer which I had used to carry a display.  (I no longer carry the display)  Well the trailer was tossed upon a fence post, then lifted again and rolled three times stopping on another fence post. 

What we got from the insurance is within $55.00 of the cost of our new forklift. 

Out of something tragic, comes a blessing that we had been praying for to survive in our business. 

Time and time again we have done, "GOD COMES THROUGH AGAIN!"

Each of us should have "God Comes Through" times in our lives, but if not, how's your faith?  Are you relying on yourself or the creator of the Universe who is passionately in love with you and wants to bless you? 

Is it not time to walk by faith and not by site in your life?    Faith as seen in the Bible
