“This friend’s faithfulness” – a missionary moment
I have a faithful friend. We’ve known each other for a long time now. We went to the same secondary school (I was one year ahead) and were in the same house/hall. Later we went to the same university. When I went to the mission field the first time, he found out I was serving because I used to post the things we were doing, like raising funds for a motorbike. He was still in school. When he completed school in 2020 and went out on national service, he started supporting me with 10 per cent of his national service money as a tithe. After his national service, he started working in one of the big companies in Ghana, and has continued giving. He had seen what we were doing and was very much encouraged. After his one year contract, we prayed together and he was given another two years. Since then, he has been faithful in sending me 10 per cent of his salary and he gives it every month consistently. Besides this, whenever it’s his birthday he also sows a seed into my life, giving me something for the people I am working with, like throwing a little party for the football team.
There has never been a month that he hasn’t supported. For me, leaving my degree and doing this full time was not an easy decision, and one thing that will take a missionary out of the field is lack of finances. But because of this friend’s faithfulness, I have felt that the Lord is a Provider.
