The last couple of weeks have been bittersweet in many ways. I've been trying to process all of what went down over the last 4 years at RL. Some really good things, some not so good things, and a whole bunch of stuff in between! In all things, God has always provided. It's interesting that even at the choice for us to close the church down we were facing a lawsuit for breech of our lease and other bills that we were not able to pay.
Over the last few weeks we've seen God provide for us again which further cements in my mind that it was time for us to close. We've had people write checks to help cover the expenses, it's been two weeks and we've managed to sell everything RL owned, with 90% of the stuff going to other churches!! We've been offered a settlement on our lease that is very reasonable and really what we had agreed to in the first place. All that said, we now have enough cash to close out the last of the churches obligations and we can settle them without ever falling behind in a single account!
God always provides for his people. For the last six months we prayed for something different. But in the end God had a plan and he took care of his people. It's not always pretty, it's not always neat, it doesn't always take the shape that we dream up, but he's a good God!
