Outcomes That Are God Blessed(Deut 28:12; 1 Cor 15:58)
These four cabins at Mount Carmel are all full tonight, at the end of October. God has filled these cabins with seven of us who are on a retreat here and with 8 students who are at the Tech School in Alexandria. It is our Lord who blesses our undertakings. When we, Sonja and Johan, were working here, we tried to fill these year round cabins and others like them as often as possible when the summer was over. But our effort felt like it was in vain. We had four students here in 2012 staying here for the winter. It just did not work. But now, 12 years later, there are 39 people who are here as overnight midweek guests (some for a few days and some for 8 months). And in the morning a bus arrives with students who are part of a Christian day school. 40 youth from 3rd to 7th grade will show up to study all day in our chapel basement while six students in the year long Awaken Project study the Bible upstairs in the chapel( along with us older folks who leave today). The lodge is full of ladies here who love to quilt. It is wonderful to see this place fully being used. God is doing it! And God will do the same for you since your labor will not be in vain!
