What is the Paper Clip project?

Some of you may be wondering what is the Paper Clip project. Well let me explain, and get everyone up to speed. I started the Paper Clip project after i was laid off from my job on a Friday, then that Monday my truck broke down. I had just had about 450 dollars of work done on my truck. Which brought the total amount of repairs for 2010 to over 1500 dollars. This was back on May first.
So i was jobless and had no means of transportation, other then Adidas Shell Toe Classics. So i prayed, I really felt God wanted me to do something Extreme by Faith. I remember a story I from severally years ago about a man that traded a paper clip for a home. With a leading from God, a heart full of Faith, and an idea crazy enough to work the Paper Clip project was born. I bought a paper clip for 1 penny, and started Blogging. My first trade came the first day! I traded Doug Anderson the paper clip for a can of Goofy String.
The second Trade came a few days later. I traded the can of Goofy String with Jesse White for a Case XX pocket knife. Trade #3 came that same day i traded the for the knife. I traded the pocket knife with Shawn and Amber Crowe, for a Samsung S630 digital camera.
It took a few days but sure enough trade #4 came. Tuesday Lemon ( yes that is her real name) traded the digital camera for 2 Japanese style swords.
Then the first really long wait came. But just trade #5 came. Pastor Jeremiah Johnson, Trade the swords for 2 MTX Thunder sub woofers! They are sweet!
Trade #5 was the last trade i made. I am waiting for Trade #6. Just as i know the sun will rise, the trade will come. That's the power of Faith. Jesus teaches us that Faith is a servant. And in Hebrews 11, we see men and women inheriting the promises of God by Faith. Paul teaches the we are to follow those who inherit the promises of God by Faith. What are the promises of God?
God promises up health, wealth, peace, mercy, and truth just to name a few! The paper Clip project is rolling along. Tell your friends about it. God is moving, and I know i will have what i desire because i have believed i received when i prayed.
I have 2 MTX Thunder sub woofer, anyone want to trade?
