Good News: God chooses people base on his mercy.

From the book of Romans, I got to learn another aspect of the book that I haven't understood it before. Thanks to Mark Nakatsukasa for his wonderful sharing just in the right time that I need to hear the most. Since I'm a human, I'm so limited of being patient and I don't have much mercy for others. I can't see how God's plan can be fit for a person who has done wrong, but look at me I'm also a sinner who has done a mess thing that I shouldn't receive the forgiveness. However, I came to the point of letting God choose and do thing on his own way because he has the best thing in mind for people that I'm neglected. He knows the beginning and the end, so it's not my business to judge others, but I need to sit back and see God's mercy for each person. So here what I've drawn out from the Book of Romans right now, and thanks to God for his truth has set me free from judging my dad and not being patient with him. Dear God, I pray for salvation to each member of my family. We all are desperate and need your mercy like rain. At first we didn't recognize you as God, we lived in sinful nature and even in the spiral downward to the base mind. I'm thankful that you never gave up on us completely, and I'm so thankful that you turn a very bad thing into a good thing for our sake. God, help me to remember and believe in your promise and totally trust you with all my heart that you care so much for me, for each person in this world. Please help me to be able to give thanks in all situation. May you be glorify through my life. May this true remind me of your grace and your perfect plan for all mankind. Thank you God!! Love, Gade

Wilderness

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 fo...

Goodbye Mom

Jan 2, 2014 is the date of losing my mom. She had been in the hospital for 3 days with the last state of liver cirrhosis. She was in and out from the hospital since October 2, 2013, and she had been sick 3 months together. I felt difficult to realize it was very short time I had with her, for I was only with her about 2 weeks altogether in these 3 months. I called and talked to her more often since she was sick, but my last conversation with her through the phone wasn't an impress for me. She thought I left her alone because I was upset that she couldn't work to have money for my own wedding. I was almost cry to her, but I did cry when I told Therd about this conversation I had with mom. What a painful moment for me to knew that she didn't know how much I love her, and I didn't care of what I'll get from her, for I only care if she could make it until my wedding. I would like to have her walk me to the altar, and I would like her to experience my precious wedding ...

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...
