I thought I had a good idea for ministry - but I didn't consult the Lord before moving ahead on it. As a result, I incurred a debt of $5,000 with no way to pay it back. (In today's economy, that amount would equal close to $25,000.)
Akala ko ay mayroon akong mabuting kaisipan patungkol sa gawain sa Dios - nguni't hindi ko isinanguni sa Panginoon bago ako sumulong sa ganoong gawain. At ang sumunod na nangyari, ako ay nagkautang ng halagang $5,000 na walang pamamaraan para mabayaran.
