Genesis 22:1-14

matthew 28:18-20

past few days have been meaningful. first of all, thank God for seeing me thru my first time teaching at the eng conversation club yesterday, and for those wonderful ppl who prayed for me. well, i didn't get to teach on tue becos of a communication breakdown. apparently, the students had gone to the orphanage w/o informing bro nat becos they assumed there was no club meeting on tue. only this guy who leads the yfc meetings, p'nick, turned up to inform us tt the students weren't coming. however, it was all within God's perfect plan & timing. 2 young american ladies, autumn & her sis, angela turned up to offer help as well. p'gade was around too, and so, together, the 6 of us prayed for the club & future plans. and now, bro nat has been wanting to talk to one of his students to check on her salvation. by God's design, she came in right after we were done praying! so p'gade & bro nat got to talk to her tt day : ) praise the Lord!

thank God for the opportunity to share my testimony of salvation with koi, whom i've gotten to know best so far cos i get to see her very often. she's bro nat's disciple and sis pat often invites her & p'gade over for dinner. also, the 2 of them have been very nice to take me to the night markets : )

went to sch cos there was yfc meeting today. although it's in thai, m really thankful i went today. moreover, there were nice ppl there to interpret for me :) it wasn't easy for them, and i really appreciate their effort to remind one anor to "translate for her (me of cos)" so i wouldn't feel left out. as i sat there looking at this grp of youths, i couldn't help but think of my own yf back home & wat it's gng thru...i wanted to cry, while pleading with God to keep our yf gng...

thank God for p'nick's sharing today. seems like i've almost forgotten abt the ppl around me who aren't saved yet, and the burden i had in my heart to reach them with the gospel. the story he shared was a timely reminder...and i sure don't want to go to heaven one day, having to beg God -in vain - to let my loved one in as well...

one impt thing to bring home as well: there are 2 kinds of Christians - one who tells the world he's a Christian but acts otherwise, and one who tells the world he's a Christian through his words AND actions...which kind are we?
