Yes!


I had a meeting the other day with the ministry that I joined with, and as we share our hearts and what are we thankful for, and this one girl, a good friend of mine says...

"I give thanks to the Lord for giving me a lot of strength. I thank Him for saying "YES" when I always say "NO" to his calling. I thank God that he trusted me enough and know that I am gonna finish this race."

And that really encourages me a lot. I mean, how many times people gave up on the mission field or failed on their ministry? I thank God that he say YES and he knows that I am gonna finish this race with him, and it's gonna be glorious. I mean, of course the glory go to HIM, but I get to be a part of bringing the most glory to Him, that is an honor.

I have been somewhat successfully made some good Thai friends from the church and some people from the bars and stuff. But I know that this is not the end, I am not even close to the end, this is just a beginning of everything. Doors are opening, He is on the move. He is saying YES for revival, YES for justice for the people who are oppressed, YES for the healing to the brokenhearted. Even though a lot of time I say no, because it is hard and inconvenient. He is good and He say YES!

And one thing, He is not looking for a professionals, he is looking for His lover, His beloved. The one that are intentionally come to him and listen to him.
Despise all the ministry and the work that I've had here so far, I have been experiencing God more than ever, he is good. I know that I know that I KNOW that I cannot live one day, one minute without him. He is the reason for me to be here and He is going to be my rewards. I don't want anything else but him.

Thanks for reading.
I will post more stuff as days goes on.

God bless!

My New House

Image
Like I said in my previous blog, that I have moved in to my new house with my new house mates: Jasmine and Amy. There is a lot of things we have to do for that house, but it came with a furniture and reasonable price. We were really happy to have the deal with that house because of the location, that it is near to the city, a walk to the students houses and a walk to the church I am working with. It's just a blessing to all of us. Couple of you have asked what the house look like, so here is some pictures of the house so you can have an idea how awesome our house is. :) This is the front of our house and here's a few shots on the inside. It is not completely arranged yet, but we're getting there. :) Yes, we are so blessed with such a nice house. My room is a lot smaller than the one I have before but I like it kind of small. That way I don't have to worry about cleaning it and filling it. Haha... I am just blessed, so blessed. And this is my new transportation around th

Leaving Thailand

Image
Greetings! In January 2014 I will be ending my term as a missionary in Thailand and will be going home to Jakarta, Indonesia . The ministry that I work with in Chiang Mai is bearing a lot of fruits and things are going really well, but I feel like Indonesia is where the Lord is taking me for this next season. Jakarta, Indonesia, my home, I never thought that God will ever call me back home. When I give my life to serve in the mission field 7 years ago, I never thought that this will happen. But God really is calling me to go back home . And it was as clear as it can be to me. The ministry that I am doing with the youths here are flourishing, the Lord have blessed us so much this past two years, we were able to see growth, new believers and new thing in the Thai churches. But when I spoke with my dad (my senior pastor in Jakarta) couple of months back, he told me that the youth back in my church is falling apart. Ever since I left home, things are ju

Valentine's Day

Oh my... it's been ages since I updated this blog. I am terribly sorry. Ever since I got back to Jakarta, everything just kind of go in super fast pace. Just like the city. For almost 3 years I lived in Chiang Mai where everything is kind of slow and feels laid back, getting back in the mega city has not been easy at all. Though I am entering my 3rd year here, I found it very hard still to find things that I enjoy here (besides friends and family of course). Today is Valentine's Day. For a single girl like me it doesn't feel any different than any other day to be honest. But with the social media and peer pressure on single girl in her late 20s, today can be a tough day to face. I say goodbye to dating a long time ago, I used to date when I was in High School but not anymore since then. I have decided to follow God's calling and took the harder road in leaving home and study as well as serving others in the other side of the world. Many of you are familiar with my s
