In the Midst of Chaos...He is with you.

This is the first quiet moment I've had in a long time to sit and write something for all of you to read.  Disaster has hit my country Thailand and yet in my heart I know God is in control.

Isn't it such a beautiful thing to be a child of God... when you are in the midst of chaos and confusion there is such a stillness and peace that resides within you.  My husband and I live in Bangkok, and everyday we are watching the news and we hear so many things, whether it be from the television or just people around our lives, whether it be the truth about what is going on or just what the media says, or even what different people from different views may say, we do know that God is in control and it is all a part of the great plan of salvation.  We really don't have much to say regarding all that is going on, but on the other hand we are waiting for God's perfect timing to 'Present His Plans' to whom ever wants to listen.

God's Plans are always without flaw and will bring everything into the right order... His order.  Even though it may look chaotic, but it will accomplish His will.

As I continue this journey with Jesus I do know that I am growing up in Him more and more each day as I seek to know His ways.

What I have come to realize regarding my own life is that I really have to understand the LOVE of FATHER GOD so that I can give this love to those He brings into my life.  Even if we have all knowledge but we lack LOVE it comes to nothing.  No matter what we have whether it be material, emotional, or even spiritual, if it doesn't accompany TRUE LOVE it means nothing.  This is the area of my life in which I am still lacking... not enough love... but I am pursuing it with every ounce in me.

After serving the Lord now for almost 18 years, I have come to realize that LOVE is truly the key.  Not ministry, not wealth, nor honor, nor reputation, or anything else.

¹ Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. ² And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. ³ And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor,and though I give my body to be burned,but have not love, it profits me nothing.⁴ Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; ⁵ does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; ⁶ does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; ⁷ bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. ⁸ Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whetherthere are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. ⁹ For we know in part and we prophesy in part. ¹⁰ But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.¹¹ When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. ¹² For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. ¹³ And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.  1 Corinthians 13:1-13

In my next blog I will write more about this.

Remember I love you all and pray God's love to overflow into your life.

Be blessed.

The Shack

It's been over a month since my last post... ministry has kept us running.  Now I don't even like to use the word busy because I once heard a funny man say that the word 'BUSY' stands for Burden Under Satan's Yoke.  So I forbid to be BUSY' just 'happening and staying occupied..  We started another Bible School in Penang Malaysia.  Have you had a chance to check out our homepage yet?  http://inchrist.asia   We do live streaming and have all kinds of Preaching Videos for you to enjoy.

I just finished reading a book called 'The Shack,' what a breath of fresh heir! No I didn't spell air wrong, just trying to get you to seek.  I think you can google The Shack.  I haven't had a chance to check yet.

All through my Christian Journey, I always knew that God was greater then my mind could even comprehend, that is why He is God and I am not. It was the revelation of my own limitations that gave me the revelation that there must be a God.  That this is not all by chance, but a perfectly written story.  Even greater then that 'The Perfect Love Story.' And what I have discovered is this is TRUE.

The book ' The Shack' touched my heart deeply, but I'm sure if anyone is in a frame, or can only receive God in the mind, they will not find this book interesting.  I gave up trying to put God in a box or even limit Him to any matter at all... I would have missed it badly.

I'll write more next week... Be blessed and tell someone that your close to 'That you love them,' it will do great wonders.  Love you so much.
