get through! This need is SO DESPERATE that now for the first time
in four or five years, I have to ask all who could LOAN to God's
work amounts of $500 on up to $5,000, to do so at once. I had felt
we would never borrow money again---it is so hard to pay back. But
to save this net-work broadcast, and to tide it over another two or
three months until it brings us NEW Co-Workers to join you and me
in this work, the situation is so DESPERATE, I have to ask even for
loans, if you cannot feel free to GIVE such sums for God's work.
Brethren and Co-Workers, you can't know how it hurts me to have to
ask this---and STILL I pray, and ask you to JOIN me in praying,
that God will somehow provide enough money week by week thru those
whose hearts He has made willing, so that we shall not have to
borrow.
And now finally, dear Co-Workers, please take this at
once to heart, and to a private place of PRAYER. We must not
falter. GOD WILL GIVE US STRENGTH AND COURAGE AND FAITH to GO ON!
This is not our work---it is GOD'S! But He lays on each one of us
His own part in God's work, and now we must do our very utmost. And
KEEP ON DOING IT WEEK BY WEEK!
God bless all of you. I know you'll stand with me in
this grave emergency. And Oh, how I pray that soon we may all hear
Jesus' own voice saying to us, when He comes. "WELL DONE, THOU GOOD
AND FAITHFUL SERVANT!" God bless and guide you!
In Jesus' precious name
