His Divine Providence

A few days ago, we received word from the Society of Pentecostal Studies that Monte’s paper has been accepted for its 42nd Annual Meeting in conjunction with the Wesleyan Theological Society, hosted by Seattle Pacific University, Seattle, WA, March 21-23, 2013.   (http://www.sps-usa.org/meetings.html)

The Conference Theme is "Holiness".  The title of Monte's paper is “Patterning the Pentecostal Via Salutis to the Classical ‘Three Ways’ of Spiritual Formation: An Ecumenical Model for Developmental Sanctification”.

Our hearts are filled with great joy because this honour and privilege is not something we take for granted.  Memories of how God providentially met us last year when He opened the door for Monte to present his paper in Virginia, USA came rushing into our hearts and spirit.  We experienced first hand how the Lord miraculously provided for every cent necessary to make the trip.  This time round, the joy is inexpressible.  We can only stand in amazement because He is simply awesome and great. We believe in His divine provision.  We know that He has all the resources we needed.  We are thankful and we know that He is more than enough for us.  We are grateful for the opportunity to see God work on our behalf and we are mindful that the Lord is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all we can imagine and hope.  We see His hand of love.

Journeying with the Lord is amazing.  We do not want to embark on any other journey except for the one that God leads us on.  We persevere in love and hope because He speaks His strength, grace, and love into the depth of our hearts.  We bow in humble adoration to our great God who is faithful and true.
