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

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

Jeremiah 29:11

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11 ESV There are many people in different generation refer to this specific scripture as their comforts, their hopes, and encouragement for others which is not wrong of doing it so, but recently I read this passage over and over until I have the deeper understanding with its context and meditate on it, so I want to write it down to remind myself and share it with you. The verse before this scripture is "For Thus says the Lord: When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will visit you, and I will visit you, and I'll fulfill to you my promise and bring you back to this place. For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." - Jeremiah 29:10-11 ESV . God told Jeremiah to write a letter stating this passage in Jerusalem and send it to the survivi...

Control & Approval

During these intense 6 months of co-leading a YWAM training school, I have been learning and exploring tons of thing about who God is and about myself which I have to lay down myself in many ways. My intimate relationship with God has been developing since I took the FOCOS (Coaching Course with CMI), for I started to focus more on my quality time with God and learning to listen to him. In past 3 months, although there are so much works going on, I still learn to be still and know that God is God where I can't control any thing at all. Through this school, I wish I could be more prepared, the building would be perfect to run the school, all staffs would be ready to serve the school, and the students would learn and grow incredibly, but those are false expectations because God's plan and how he works in a whole group and individual are totally what we are experiencing now. There are tons of small thing occurs to make us discouraged, but I do learn to let thing go and depend on Go...

Sonship

Around this time last year, I was at the Father Heart 'A' school, and it was only a week to learn about God's heart as a father. I expected me to be changed and healed from all the wounded of my past, so that I don't have any trouble to love and accept others, but what I experienced there was completely contrast from my expectation. I experienced God's heart for me and learned how much he loves me. I found a huge fear in the core of me, the fear of death, and there is no one will fight to protect me because I was ruined since I was in the womb of my mom, but God revealed himself to me that he was there to protect and comfort me. I can prove that he is right because I am still alive until today. I am so afraid to be in some place that I can't help myself if there is an emergency, I am afraid to fly, I am afraid to be in the ocean and surround with water. This is what God revealed to me, and it helped me to deal with it. I need to understand who God is for me, so ...
