Even a drop of water is a blessing

Between Mulanje Massif Chapter training and preparing to join our team on Mission: Kilimanjaro 2018, Climbing For Christ worker Damson Samson was busy again feeding the widows. In October, he used monthly support from Climbing For Christ for his widows’ project to buy maize for more than 100 hungry widows. But many were not fed through this effort. So, Damson took November support and did the same thing, providing more than 30 50-kilogram bags of maize to feed another 100-plus widows.
“This brought great smiles on the faces of our dear widows,” Damson said. “They said it’s as if their home was very dry and this drop of water is counted as a blessing.
“I witnessed the dances and singing for this very great victory as the LORD has supplied. We are praying that this (food program) should continue. I ask all to help us in prayer for HIS provision.”
More than 100 hungry widows celebrated the gift of several days worth of food.
“And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows; And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey…” – Exodus 3:7-8 (KJV)
Damson encouraged the widows with the message from Exodus 3:7-8. “Always God moves people, who seem they were not ready for the call, so that HIS glory may be shown to many,” Damson said. “May the LORD bless all whom He has trusted.”
