Thank you so much for praying for us. Thank you for being with us last weekend. The journey was smooth and the sun was behind a thick cloud while we were working so nobody fainted.Praise God nobody got injured...there were just a few minor injuries like hammering our own fingers, insect bites, food allergies, and lots of blisters!!
This is the first time the youth had ever done this in their lives. It was hard work but nobody complained or said any thing negative. Everybody worked and did their best with cheerful smiles. That night we were planning to sleep in tents, but the rain came and flooded our tents so we slept in the house. Which turned out to be a God thing !
The house owner, Tenn, is a young Christian. She is afraid of ghosts and was afraid to sleep in front of the pictures of the ancestors. The family sleeps in another corner of their home.
Our exhausted young people, however did not mind where they slept. They were exhausted! And they slept through the night, nobody had any dreams or any spiritual attacks. The following morning, I was able to share with Tenn that with Jesus, we are safe. He is always with us. He takes care of us.
During the house dedication, Tenn said she never thought that the love of God looked or felt like the way she felt at that moment. She was so touched. Her husband called us this morning to thank everybody who prayed for them and cared for them. They were so grateful and touched by the love of God.
In a short aside, many years ago, some Christian helped a boy and his family in a slum area. He was touched by the love of God and promised that he would give back to God what belonged to God. Today he is a full-time worker of God. He is the tall man in the first picture handing over gift to the elderly couple.
One simple act of giving, gave a boy from the slums a chance for NEW LIFE, who knows what God has in store of BoonTam, Tenn and their two kids.
Thank you for praying for us! With Love from Bangkok , Irene Ng
