God allowed me to get a visa to visit the United States. I preached at some Myanmar Community Churches several times in the United States. I was given between $100 and $200. What I received was not used for family. I gave thousands to church planters and an orphanage. I did not buy anything for my own children. I invested in missionary workers who face difficulties in delivering the Gospel message to unbelievers.\u00a0I believe that God will still provide for my family as I believe He fulfills His promises (Ps. 137:25).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/forvidas.org\/blogmg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/96D563AE-48A8-477B-8D59-F3170F233A0B.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2339\" src=\"https:\/\/forvidas.org\/blogmg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/96D563AE-48A8-477B-8D59-F3170F233A0B-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/forvidas.org\/blogmg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/96D563AE-48A8-477B-8D59-F3170F233A0B-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/forvidas.org\/blogmg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/96D563AE-48A8-477B-8D59-F3170F233A0B-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/forvidas.org\/blogmg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/96D563AE-48A8-477B-8D59-F3170F233A0B-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/forvidas.org\/blogmg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/96D563AE-48A8-477B-8D59-F3170F233A0B-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/forvidas.org\/blogmg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/96D563AE-48A8-477B-8D59-F3170F233A0B-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/forvidas.org\/blogmg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/96D563AE-48A8-477B-8D59-F3170F233A0B.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I am one of the Executive Committee Members of Shwepyithar Township Christian Church\u2019s Council.
