God at Work

Here at OIM, I get the privilege of serving alongside many amazing volunteers ‘behind the scenes.’ One such volunteer is consistently bringing donations that she has collected from friends and neighbors throughout the week. I want to share a short story this volunteer shared with me a couple of months ago.


“During the winterwear outreach, a tall and sturdy man needed a coat his size. None were available that day, so I turned to prayer for God's direction. At my church the following Sunday, I saw two men about the right size, but they left before I had the opportunity to ask them. Leaving the church sanctuary and heading into the foyer, I was suddenly face to face with another friend. ‘Hey, do you have an extra winter jacket you would give to me for someone in need?’ I asked. The man replied, ‘Yes, I have a very good one and a very good sweater to wear under it for extra warmth.’


I picked up the two items on Monday and delivered them to OIM on Tuesday. Who was happier, more grateful, and more excited - the recipient, the donor, or I, who delivered God's timely gift?! Praise His name, for He is good and faithful.”


Matthew 6:31-32: “So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.”


~ Phoebe, Resource Coordinator

Really enjoyed this read! I think many businesses can relate to the problem of outdated office equipment. For anyone in the UAE, I’d recommend this Copier Scrap Buyer in UAE. They helped us dispose of unused photocopiers easily. Their process was smooth, professional, and environmentally friendly. It’s a reliable option if you want to free up space without hassle.
