SEASONS:
Blowing from the far north to the deep
south stretching to the sunny east
expanding across the wild west, the seasons of life enter into our homes
in a variety of forms and directions. Such seasons hold special importance and
impactful lessons leading to our growth in the momentary time on earth. I have
found a consistent presence of our Faithful Father in every transition of
unfamiliar territory. He uses these periods to refine His children while
sanctifying and transforming them progressively into His holiness. Through life
the Father further displays His faithfulness and goodness by providing fellow believers
alongside the journey. Because of Him and his unending grace I am richly
blessed. At the present moment I find
myself shifting from one distinct season to another. Within a few days I am to
say goodbye to my cherished friends and unique moments in Southeast Asia as I
warmly welcome my family and loved ones in the States.
The experience in Southeast Asia has been profitable, rewarding, and
unforgettable. My heart will never be the same. Though I may look the same
outwardly, inwardly I am not the equivalent person I was six months ago. The
Great Almighty has moved many, many mountains inside of me. Again, only by the Almighty
can I ever become more like His Son each day. At times, these changes can be
difficult, painful even. But I have found a great hope in His continued work
through all my muck and mire while He brings me into His glory. I still have
mountains to be moved in my heart. But these mountains should not be my prime
focus. My focus should rest in the sight of the Son who is capable of
conquering all mountains in me. Quite incredible when you thing about it: me, a
sinful and unworthy creature, saved by the blood of the Son so that I will one
day stand blamelessly in front of the Perfect King. Truly, I have done nothing
to deserve favor in His eyes. By His powerful, gracious and loving hand he has
molded me into a justified adopted daughter, chosen to dwell in His courts
forever.
“Therefore we do
not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being
renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us
an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is
seen, but what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is
eternal.”
Many moments of memory have taken place here in Southeast Asia; too
many to count and too valuable to choose only a few. Therefore, I will continue
to exalt His name, He ultimate is responsible for the joy I hold in my heart
and movement of truth in this land! Praise His name! Oh Nations Praise His
Name! He is worthy of all glory, praise and recognition! There is no one like
Him in the entire universe! My pr*yer for all believers:
“I keep asking the
glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you
may know him better. I pr*y also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened
in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of
his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us
who believe. The power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he
exerted in the Son when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right
hand in the heavenly realms.”
Those who keep their life will lose it but those who lose their life
will gain it! He is the purpose for our very breathe. One day all knees shall
bow and every tongue will confess Him as King!
Great thanks and appreciation towards all our
pr*yer warriors and supporters! We are exceedingly grateful!
