In the account of Noah's Ark, found in Genesis 5-10, God gives Noah a sign; a rainbow, His covenant to all men that he would never again flood the entire earth. The word covenant is used in scripture over 270 times, the word promise is used over 100 times. When we are in the midst of a trial in our lives, sometimes it is the hardest time to recall the promises of God; however, this is the time when it is most important to remember what God has promised to us, especially if you are His child.

Something I have found to be a huge blessing to me, is really studying the message of hymns or biblicaly inspired songs that we sing, or hear on the radio on a daily/weekly basis. It is my hope to use this blog as a way of sharing the lyrics to songs that have been a blessing to me, and how they have blessed me and reminded me of a promise given by God, and in turn be a blessing to others.

New Blog

Hello everyone from cold, frozen Northland here in Wisconsin. I just got this blog setup, and am very new to blogging, so bear with me as I learn how to do all of this. I just wanted everyone to know about my blog. I will try to keep it updated with new prayer requests, updates of my support before my departure, and current happenings while I'm in Japan.

Please pray for me as I am currently trying to raise support to pay for my plane ticket & to give money to Mansells for living expenses for my stay in Japan. I also am working on obtaining a religious activities visa, I need to have a letter guaranteeing that I will have money to pay expenses while in Japan, buy a return ticket when I need to leave, and will abide by the laws during my visit.

 Thank you all for your prayers, Mata ne (Until Next Time)

    Lord willing I will be leaving the U.S. on May 25th. I will return to the States on Dec. 9th for the last week of school. I'm needing to raise about $4500-5000 for my plane ticket, living expenses, and some spending money for while I'm in Japan. Thank you SO much for your prayers, they are much appreciated. I will try to keep my blog updated with my approximate support percentage!!

    This will be a wonderful way to keep people informed for information and prayer! Well done Jenn! Suggestion: the comment section with the names in purple is almost impossible to read. Maybe another color? Also if you want to add another link you may do it for our blog and websites: blog: www.mansellmusings.blogspot.com

    web: www.worldtell.com

    We post our prayer letters at both places and on the blog with pictures as well so people can get a view of your stay from both 'sides'! ;-)

    Praying! God will provide!
    Oh I just realized there is one link there so is that our website link? Again, the color didn't stand out right away. Love your picture!
