An article of 'Thanksgiving'

2012-01-12T03:19:00.000-08:00

Happy New Year to all of you!! This year I really want to remind myself to start the year with thanksgiving. It wasn't because of big shock of blessing, but it's because I realize that God is doing his good work in me, and I'm where I am right now because of him alone. I got to read an article from the book "Displaced Reflections" by Oddny Gumaer.Thanksgiving:We are in a refugee housing thousands of people who have fled war. Bugs are buzzing around our sweaty bodies. There is no breeze to move the hot air. Little children are playing. From a house close by we hear music. Several people must be gathered together. They are singing in beautiful harmony. Praise songs. "Is there a church meeting?" I ask. "No, one family is having a Thanksgiving service twice a year to remember what God has done for them."How many times a year do I conduct a Thanksgiving service to remember what I have received? These people who are singing praises to God right now are refugees who have lost everything they own. They do not even have a birth certificate. They are some of the poorest people in the world. But they are thankful. They are thankful that they are still alive, that they have food to eat and a floor to sleep on. They are so much bigger than me.As I'm looking at myself, I felt I kept repeating the same phrase over and over, I don't have those, I don't have this, I can't do this, I can't do that, I hate this, and I hate that. These people they are so grateful of a little that God has done for them, mostly their lives!! Will I be able to give thanks to God while I'm loosing everything? Am I value my life so much more than what I have? Here is how God challenge me to be thankful of everything in my life this year. I need to be change of this area, so that I can freely keep praising God and sharing his goodness to others. As I started this year, I would like to focus on worship God and intercede for the lost, and I found it's very helpful if I watch closely how God move and work among his people, and keep giving thanks to him.I thanks God for my life, for an opportunity to serve him because it's such an honor to serve our greatest God. Thanks to God as he is trustworthy of my provider. I fail thousand times already to truly understand what it means as he is my provider, but I'll keep holding on to him that he is my provider, my future and my hope.May God be glorify for thousand times.Gade

Grace that I'm not deserved

2011-11-30T20:42:00.001-08:00

Since Bangkok was under water for quite a while, I was super busy with many emergency works and usual works that I have to get done. I didn't put any update on that, but I'm glad that God is working through YWAM Bangkok to bless those who were in need, and I'm sure that God bless us so much because where we are located in Bangkok, there is no flood. Praise God for that.Yesterday was a crazy day for me to hear about my family back home. When I visited my family, I was blessed because I felt love and care from my parents and how they treat one another, but to hear that my dad keep making my mom grief for his fair, then it causes me to be anger inside. During the small group time, we talked about Grace of God and whom we should give grace to. It's very difficult for me to say that I need to give grace to my dad, since he is the one who hurt me and the rest of his family. My anger keep bouncing back to me with unforgiven heart, and when I shared it to my small group and ask for prayers, I sensed that God is saying "I'm giving you my grace, so that you can give grace to your dad". It's a painful moment to admit that I'm a sinner also and I'm not deserved for God's grace, but God still give his grace to me while I'm not deserved. I believe this is a breakthrough in my heart, for there are many people around me that I keep holding my anger and unforgiveness toward them. I need to remind myself I've received God's grace that I shouldn't deserve for, so that I can give grace and forgive others. May God help me to walk through this process and transform me, so that I can make different in my family and my society. Thanks to God for his grace, and thanks to God that he has a big heart for everyone. I'm not deserve to his grace, but I'm so thankful to receive it, and I want to be like him, so I can give grace to others. Thank you Jesus for this truth and the breakthrough that he has done in me.Glory to God forever,Gade

Ask for my people

2011-09-12T08:18:00.000-07:00

It was my second time to sit and hear the news how heavy rain causes the flooding in many provinces of Thailand. People are suffered, and need help. I felt so sorry for those people who stuck in their houses, can't go anywhere, don't have food to eat, and can't work for a while. I really even feel bad when I heard people don't have enough to eat, but they still bringing what they have to the Bud-dish temple to do merit, for they thought the more they being faithful doing merit, the more this heavy rain and bad thing will surely go away. They don't know The One who is in control with the heavy rain, who can do the impossible thing, and the one whom they should ask for help.Recently I've been listening to many story of bad thing in Thailand, and I felt like the more I hear it, the more I don't feel like this is my homeland, for I can't make any change in this country and I just have to bear all of that along with other Thai brothers and sisters; the big gap between the poor and the rich, or even people step over each other to achieve their goals. I can't believe that 50 thousand of Thai people have to bear with it no matter what. All these happens because they don't know The One who is just and merciful.I felt like God wants me to turn this thought up side down by praying for a good thing to happen and believe that God is able. I can't look down upon my own country and my people, but I can make a different even it's very small impact, and I do believe that as I have a little faith which is small as a mustard seed, God is still able to use it for a big thing. God cares for his people and he adores his people even more than I can think of. So God, I really need to have this kind of heart for people who don't know Jesus Christ yet, and may you help me to pray and fight for the change of my country, for you're able and you're with us always. May your name be glorify.

Wilderness

2011-08-04T07:06:00.000-07:00

Have you ever wondered how many challenged you need to go through each year? What about your hope for future? Will it ever come true when it seemly nothing can make it happen?

I want to say that I'm good enough, I've been through many thing that I can stand firm and don't lose my mind. I don't care what happen in the future, for I know my God is able to do. I fail to totally trust that my circumstances is not a big deal. Once again, I have to encourage myself through the book of Philippians, for it talks about being rejoice. I admit how worry I am and try to work out in my own way. I saw a picture of myself building up such a strong mountain to conquer all the optical, but when I worshiped God during the Conference, I just realized my mountain become its optical for taking me to another level of trusting God.

God told me that he will make my mountain flat, and I'm in this wilderness, so that I'll realize who God is and how amazing he is. A big challenging for me right now is about the financial situation that keep me double minded about leaving my mission to work as other people. I knew deeply in my heart that wasn't God's calling to my life. He calls me to champion the young people for his kingdom through arts and dance, and I need to keep focusing on that. Errrr... I don't like my thoughts now, and I really need prayers that my attitude will change, my heart will be set for God's purpose and continue to stand firm in the calling that God has called me to do, and I totally work along side with God for his plan. I'm sorry God that I doubt about your ability and who you are.. I'm ready for the trip in this wilderness while I'm feeding by you, leading by you, and learning that you are my God. Help me to commit my single day to walk with you with my wholeheartedly.

If there is anyone who faces that same thing as me. Let's learn together who God is and don't be doubtful of how capable of our God.

God bless you!

How to win

2011-04-06T03:36:00.000-07:00

Sitting in the class with SBS students in this couple day, I was encouraged with many truth especially when we're talking about Spiritual Warfare.

I started to gain more understanding of who I am in Christ, and where I should stand for, and how I should live my life to win this kind of battle. I would call it as a revelation when I totally see how these thing works in order to win the battle. Many time I usually ask how I shall pray, is there any specific acts that I should do or if there is any place to should go to make it real powerful weapon. I'm so thankful for who God is, because I can learn that God is not a God of rule and a good manner act, but through his grace, he's done all thing for us in order to win the battle. My responsibility is about living my life by know who I am and what Christ has done for me. I need to put every effort in order to live in unity with others. This is so powerful and such an encouraging word for me.

Thanks to God for releasing me from all other thought that have been involved with me such a long time, and thank you that no matter how massy I'm, God is at work among his people. He has his own way of bringing people back to him. I'm so proud of my God, and I'm so proud of being his children. Go God!

New Year for a new goal.

2011-01-05T21:04:00.000-08:00

Happy a New Year everyone!

How did you spend your Christmas and New Year? It was my first year to be away from my YWAM Bangkok family, and it was so different in a good way.

I saw myself has been through many stages of life, and through those processes I've seen God as my helper who held my hands to walk through all difficulties. There were time that I kept praising him, there were time I was discouraged, and there were time of challenging to change, but the most important to me is that God never let me go from him.

Lately I've been challenged to spend my time in getting to know God deeper. My spiritual life was a bit dry and cold in last few month, and it effected my ministry and how I live my life even my relationship with my family. This year I would like to set my heart in seeking God with all my heart and follow him closely. Since I'm 29 years old, I should be mature in my responsibility and the way I'm a good example to others.

Regarding my creativity and dance ability, I learned that I should do it in order to praise God by declaring who he is and pointing out to him alone. Psalms 150 encourages me to praise with everything I am, with all of my ability, and my life. This would change my perspective of life by keep praising him and let him be the one who receive all honor and glory.

May my life reflect God in a way of blessing and light to this world.

Being someone whom Jesus loves.

2010-11-03T19:23:00.000-07:00

Last night we worshipped our God together with all children in Baan Farm school, ChiangRai. I got to meet one of my friend from TLC whom I heard the incredible testimony from, and it was good to take sometime talk to her and let her pray for me. Thank God for that opportunity. =)

But the most standing out time for me is God saying to me that he seeks to find me wether I thought I'm not that important or someone who wants to hide herself in the conner. The story of women of Samaria flashed on my mind, and I read this scriptures this morning. I've seen that Jesus did God's will even he is in the status of very tiring and thirsty, and I'm so impress of how this conversation went on between Jesus and this lady. Jesus knows everything about her, but Jesus choose to do God's will by sharing with her the living water and the good news about Jesus is for everyone not only Jew so that whoever wants to worship God can worship him with spirit and truth. I felt a warmth embrace of Jesus embrace my cold heart, and I learned that he loves me no matter what state of my heart is in. Jesus is so true and real to me, and I should be able to share my testimony to other about him.

God, I pray that I'll be able to reflect your life, love and character to others. Let me be someone that you can use and depend on you. May other receive a blessing of you through my life, and I want to give all of me to you. Thanks God for this trip because I gained so much more experience with you, and I'm grateful of your love for my life.

May you be glorify in every situation of my life.

An Eternal Family!

2010-09-28T02:20:00.000-07:00

Last week I was sitting in the church to translate a message which King, our pastor, shared. I'm sure that God wants to reveal himself as a good provider who provide a safe place to any Christian who deals with family conflicts, and it's a Christ family. This is a very big family that have the same value and thought, they also have a same father, and they also walk to eternity together. Most of Thai Christian would face lots of conflict from our earthly families if we are the 1st person who became Christian in our own family. We value life by live in a holiness and love one another while our very own family value money and how much we can get from others. We can't expect that we'll be understood by our earthly family. God also doesn't let us stand alone in this kind of situation, he is carrying our sadness,grieves and suffering through his children. Once we share our heart together with brother and sister, we receive an encouragement and understanding from them. It doesn't mean that we shouldn't turn away from our earthly family since we receive a good thing from Christ family, we should be a giver who gives to our family. This timeless truth helps me to turn myself to my dad and my sister, instead of point out what wrong with them, I'll be a giver who cares and love them. I'll continue to give and pray for them. Through this, I can walk as Christ-like Christianity. Thanks to God for his wonderful message!

"A Beautiful Way" An Invitation to a Jesus-Centered life

2010-08-01T23:42:00.000-07:00

Hi,

I just got back from my trip to visit my dear family both in Phangnga and Bangkok. Lately, I've thinking how important for us to get to know Christ. Not only life changing happen to us, but we live in the better way of loving others. I'm deeply sad in my heart to see thing happen to my family while they are blaming themselves that they didn't do good enough in their lives before. My point is that people didn't know God live their lives in hopelessness. I learnt that God calls me to be a light to my family, so that a new hope will shine in my family. I can't do anything but God. I'm in the state of be quiet and keep praying for my family.

Since I'm back to ChiangMai, I'm resting my soul in Christ as well. Today I got to reread a book calls "A Beautiful Way, An Invitation to a Jesus-Centered Life" by Dan Baumann & Mark Klassen. I just read a first chapter, and it reminds me to think of one student from House of One Heart Ministry who just left this house and didn't follow God anymore. I saw a her painting hung on the wall at House of One Heart building, and on that painting she wrote this sentence on "Everyone must know God". It's sad to realize that she is no longer trusting in God because she thought God doesn't care about her. while I'm reading this book, I'm praying for her to really know the truth that God is reaching down to us, and he loves us not because of what we do, but he loves us because he loves us with his unconditional love.

May everyone know this beautiful way of having Jesus in their lives. May he be glorify in every way.

So this is what is up with me in these days!
Blessings,
Gade

I choose to trust him!

2010-06-22T21:15:00.000-07:00

I'm sitting in OT Overview class with the SBS, and we're studying the book of Job. One truth stands out to my heart is that God is our real God whom we should trust with our whole heart. He can do all thing, everything is under his control, and his wisdom is greater than us as a human. His blessings and his love don't go along with our good deeds. Once again I come to the point of confession and repentance that I can't do everything and I can't get all thing under my control. God is the greatest and he is worthy of our praise.

There were many time I try to do thing in my own way and my own strength, sometimes I don't understand why God put me in some situation or I question him how long I should be patient. Now I realize that it's not my business to make God answer all those question of my life, but I should totally trust God because he is only one who is in control of all thing even human's sin. Praise God that I don't need to do thing on my own.. Praise God that he is such a great helper to my life and I should keep walking with him daily.

I forgive to everyone whom hurts me from the past. May God be with them and help them to be strong in him.

God's grace

2010-05-07T21:36:00.000-07:00

The Grace of God is not only for us to receive the salvation and to be justified, but to strengthen us to endure all the hardship and perseverance in our ministry. One of our speakers taught us in 2 Timothy, and she putted up a good point to remind ourselves again. I was struggling to find what my calling is and how I should carry on the fully heart of serving for his Kingdom. Studying SBS and being staff in this school, my perspective slowly changes, and I admit that God is shaping me into his usable jar of clay. Once I realize that I just want to be an ordinary person who walks after God’s heart and fully commit to God as my Lord, but when I ask myself what I’m doing. Does it result a good thing in other life? Shall I keep moving on or perseverance in the thing that I’m doing? I’m totally lost in the midst of those questions.
I’ve been giving up in many of thing, because I don’t want to deal with people, and I only want to do thing in my own way, so this is why I value myself with how good I can do on my works. Thanks to God as he doesn’t give up on me, and he is dealing with me no matter where I am or what I’m doing. I need to be reminded that because of his grace I’ll be able to persevere through a challenge and hardship time, and I need to face it with joy in the Lord. Living out in what I believe among the staffs and students is quite a challenging lifestyle, but I felt I enjoy it the most. Part of that I’m excited to see that God is working in Thai people’s lives by seeing my students grow in the word and love of God. Here is my calling to build up other for the Kingdom of God, and I shall not give up because I’m living through God’s grace, so I shall persevere and carry out His true message.

May God be glorified through my serving and how I live my life in this earth!

Our worth is not what we do, but it is what God did for me.

2010-03-11T01:25:00.000-08:00

We're just done the book of Philippians, and once again I saw how Paul's heart beats for those whom he loves. Philippians faced many problems in their church, and there was a false teaching about receiving law to make a complete salvation. Somehow through this book, I felt God affirm me as a precious person that God's made, and he totally gave himself up just for me. I'm not worthy to receive it, but it's not what God thought.

I looked back into my personal life, and I found so many thing that I dealt with a bad attitude. I valued people on what they do or blame them on what they've done. This timeless truth just came to me to reminds me that I should give others grace while I'm needing God's grace for my own life. However, my walk with God still continue, and I know that God hasn't finish with me, but I want to recommit myself to give grace and room for people's failures. Whatsoever is an effect to me, I'll take it as a lesson of growing in a way of God.

God, I need your mercy. I want to forgive every single person who has done wrong to me, and may I be forgiven. I want to learn and practice how to be like you, and how to put on your cloth of holiness. As a beloved child, I would love to follow your steps and apply those truth into my life. To be a fruitful person since you've done a wonderful thing in me, and to be channel of sharing your love to every kind of people, I wanna be. May your name be always glorify! Amen.

Reflecting the truth of living Word- Jesus

2010-02-19T22:31:00.000-08:00

Once for a while I'm down in the deep depression of how the world see me. Lots of people express their own thoughts of me and my relationship. What am I value it between what God challenge me or other people's opinion? There is a Scriptures mentions about receiving the advice from the wise, and yes I absolutely admit it as it's necessary for my growth in both relationship and God. But I do need to meditate on those advice. Some of them are not the way of loving me but destruction. I say this because I felt it is. How can you trust in someone who spoke nicely about you up front of you, but speak their very own thoughts how bad they don't like you.. It's just a human and yet need grace of God to give other grace.

I've learned that I need to extend grace to those kind of people,too. I'll choose a good thing for myself, and I'll keep looking up to Jesus and reflect on his true word. Jesus is sincere both up front of me and behind my back. I only need to keep walking in his light and live in light.. This is the promise that I'm trying to keep for God.

I'm looking for peace and live in peace.. This is a reason that I choose to be in ChiangMai for peace.

God is my peace forever.

What can I learn from Jonathan's life.

2009-07-05T06:08:00.000-07:00

Got to read in 1 Samuel chapter 20 today, and I felt a real commitment of friendship between Jonathan and David. Jonathan told David that he loves David as he loves himself, and he is truly believe that David is the man of God, for he chose to encourage and support David, who is his dad's enemy. One thing I see it so clear is that Jonathan is willing to follow God's plan, and he believe that God is with David who will be the next King of Israel. It's hard to see the son refuses to protect his own dad and choose to help dad's enemy to sit on his dad's throne.

This can be a good example to me, but it's also a big challenge for me. Will I ever betrayed someone whom God sets for his plan because I choose to stand on someone else' side? Will I value God's plan less than man's pleasure? I can confess that I've done it so many time, and I've to realign myself to God again and again. The best part of being God's child is that I don't have to live in condemnation, but truly admit what I did wrong and walk in freedom because of Christ. Many seek for being right in everything, and we know that we always fall from being perfect. But God's love and grace is always enough for a sinner like me and everyone. Thanks to God for revealing to me and challenging me to keep going with a new attitude of others. Praise Him!

By his grace and love,
Gade Rammasoon

New Season

2009-06-18T06:36:00.000-07:00

Hi,

I've been away from this journal since I was in the School of Biblical Studies. It took about 4 months and half to study every books in the New Testament. I was impressed with the way God uses his message to speak to us in nowaday. The more I learned from problem in the original reader's time, the more I see how great is my God because he used a wonderful people to write a letter to people whom He loves so much. I got a confident that God won't ignore my needs and myself because of his promise, and I learned to trust in him more and more.

I planned to be a school staff next year because I felt there are so much more I should learn and I want these truth nail down my heart even more. I want to be part of making Thai people speak the truth to others. God's plan in working effectively in Thailand, and I'm honored to join in his team.. He is such a wonderful God!

Thanks to all of you who have been praying for me and supporting in many ways. I'm blessed because of what you've done for me in God's hands..

May God bless you wonderfully!
Love,
Gade

Jesus has overcome

2009-01-01T19:54:00.000-08:00

"I have told you this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.~ John 16:33, NLT"

Look back in the past few year, I've seen many trails and sorrows over myself and others. People who lost their beloved one are in deep of sorrows. The difficulty of the country issues and economic problem that causes the whole world to be concern about ceasing income. Lots of challenging take place, and we handle it well sometimes. I found this Scriptures alive in my heart when it speaks about 'peace'. Through the difficulty of situation, I really need peace to be in my heart so that I can pressing on and be normal person.

Just the last day of the year 2008 I was depressed about my family situation. One person texts me message to say happy new year, but the message encouraged me so much as it says "may peace, love and hope are in you today, tomorrow and always".. I'm totally overwhelmed with the fact that Jesus is our peace, and he asks me to take heart because he has overcome the world. If Jesus is with me, I have peace! He is in all situation, and we can rely on him and the Father. Sometimes when we are focusing on the issue, we totally forget this truth.. I have to confess that I didn't have this attitude until God uses this Scripture to teach me again.

Please take heart because Jesus has overcome the world. May we always have peace because Jesus is our peace.

Love,
Gade

Hope

2008-11-21T03:19:00.000-08:00

It seems like I'm not doing good on posting stuff for my blog, but there are so many thing that I really enjoy and like to share though. The last couple month had been a challenge time to me to be thoughtful of my future and my vision. I ended up determining to study Bible, and it's because I need God's truth in my life so much. The course will be in February, and it's only 4 month course digging in the New Testament.

I have a hard time with communication my feeling, my emotion and being honest. I can be with God, but still I like to hide my feeling from others. I disobey God for once, and now it causes me in suffering in relationship with my friend. I wish I could turn back to that time, and I wouldn't hold any thing against my friend at all.. Poor Gade, but I'm lifting up head to the hope in the Lord because he is my counselor.

The Christmas season is coming, and I can't believe that Bangkok is cold right now. I beg God to let Bangkok cold at least a month because I really want to enjoy the coldness in Thailand during this Christmas. =) May this Christmas is a remarkable time for me with the fellowship and friend around.

Time is up, and I must go! So this is all I want to post at this time. May God bless you!

Love,
Gade Rammasoon

Looking forward to not be the same.

2008-08-13T04:57:00.000-07:00

On the 1st week of my trip, I tried so hard to make thing going in my way, but then I realized that God is at work, so I learned to let God be in the control. Through this trip I've seen myself didn't do much and there were many mistakes, but still I have to let it be in God's way and trust that he will help me work thing out in the right way. My goal for this trip is that I'll be changed and not to be the same person as before. Since I got back, I'm searching in myself if there is any change in me. I believe there is somewhere in me, and I just have to wait it come out in God's time.

I'm blessed by each member from the team. I really want to give all honor to my wonderful staffs, Tae, Daow, Lab! Because 3 of them turned situation into a laugh and smile reaction. when I was so frustrated with different thing in the trip, these three leaders convinced and encouraged me to be thankful to God. It was a natural relationship of friends, brothers and sisters in our team, and I'm blessed through it.

These are pictures from our trip!

A biblical worldview

2008-06-26T08:45:00.000-07:00

Hey,

Just wanna drop a line that I'm doing ok.. Kinda busy with bible study in Galatians with our brand new Bangkok DTS , with work and with the preparation for the trip. I'm so exciting and can't imagine that I have only one month left before we jump on the airplane.. Thing is getting along in God's way, and I'm so proud of his wonderful plans. If you want to pray for us as a team, you can pray for another 130,000 baht is giving toward this trip for us and for us to be unify in God's perfect plan.

I don't really share much about my heart for doing bible study. I found my strength of a person who always seeking for knowledge, and I'm not surprise when I feel I wanna do the School Of Biblical Studying. It wasn't because I want to be a preacher at all, but I truly wanna have more understanding of the bible and how I can live out in what I believe. I'm praying right now where I shall go to and what the right time for me is.

This week I just gave me a little try by joining the study the Inductive Method with Bangkok DTS, and 4 days have been gone so far, and I'm completely amazed about the Truth of Jesus Christ where I used to think I have a right understanding about it, but this week I totally turn around to the new understanding with confident in my salvation.

Please pray for me as I'm seeking God's will where to go for this school. My purpose is that I wanna make a piece of dance with the deep meaning of Bible.. It'll be more my lifestyle and beautiful way with Jesus Christ.

Blessings & Love,
Gade

Having a holy and pleasing life for God.

2008-06-13T03:13:00.000-07:00

I've been stirring up to truly worship God, and I've been searching some doctrines to find how I can be truly worship God in the spirit and in truth. Once time I sit in the worship time with House of One Heart, and I felt God is banging at my heart as he wants me to experience it with him.

3 times in a roll that I felt God led me to read Romans 12, and I was hi by the 1st verse of Romans 12 in YWAM Thai new translation. It shows me that I can spiritually worship God by living in a holy life and keep pleasing him. Most of the time I enjoy singing in the worship time, and I really like to lead worship, but in the same time I questioned myself if I ever truly worship God deep in the spirit. Now I'm learning to live a holy life and listen to God carefully what he has in his heart so that I can be a daughter who is after his heart, I find myself easily sing from my heart for worship. I felt love, peace, and so much joy over my personal worship time and with other people. God is great, and I have no doubt of what he is doing in my life.

In last couple week we got a chance to perform in a big hall of Bangkok. I just love that place when nobody is there because it's a quiet and calm place. I sensed of God's presence there, and we performed well, too. Thanks to God for giving us a creative and unique gift that can be fit for his Kingdom. Here are some picture we got from there!

The Thai Art Exchange Group

Hey Everyone!

It's my pleasure to introduce you my Art Exchange Program teammate .

We have 9 people going on this trip, and 1 person stay behind. Let get know who we are!!!

Team members:

It's me =) Ms. Gade Rammasoon. As you already knew that I'm crazy about dance, music, and cultures, so I'm so exciting to go and perform my beautiful Thai dance. Moreover, I love people in that country, and I hope that I can go back there any time as a volunteer. Oh.. I'm part of the Leadership team.

Since she is seeking to know God and develop her own character, we give her opportunity to join in this group so that she can learn what we're learning together as team.

Since you knew all of us now, we would like to ask you keep praying for us. We regularly have a group meeting on Friday afternoon to learn some stuff together, practice our dance, and plan for fund raising. On Saturday we will go out sometimes or we may keep practicing our dance. As we are so different and very unique, God is using us to form a group together and be a blessing to one another. We only have 2 more months to reach a goal of getting 250,000 baht ($8065) in order to cover our airfare, transportation, budget for food and drink, housing and take care a group. Please be praying for us! We are appreciate all of your prayers and supports. May God bless you richly.

COFM in ChiangRai

2008-04-14T05:38:00.000-07:00

Sa wad D kha ( A cute Thai word for Hello!)

I've been away from Bangkok for the COFM in ChiangRai and to rest during the Songkran festival. It has been a good time so far, and the COFM was ended 3 days ago. I learned so much about love God and love other people that will make me to be bond on reaching out to the lost and needy. There are many places around the world need missionary, and even I didn't feel that God called me to a certain place yet, but I can offer this temple to be a prayer house for him.

I was soak for a day, and for my sefty I avoided to be wet again in last 2 days. It's the most dangerous time during this festival in Thailand which called "SongKran Festival" when people travel to visit the family and have vacation. Most of people went out for the water fight, so I enjoyed it enough for a day =) .. When it's over, I'll get back to Bangkok!

Next post will be in Bangkok kha.
