It is hard to imagine that this is the week of Thanksgiving! Would you believe that they actually have turkeys, stuffing mix, and cranberries displayed in the grocery stores for the "farang". (farang means foreigner) I have been invited to Natalie's home for a real Thanksgiving dinner. Natalie is on the staff of NightLight. She and her husband Steve have lived and worked in Thailand for over five years. Steve is an executive with an oil company. Their daughter has become a friend of Haley Vellinga. They are classmates at Baylor University in Texas. Small World!!
The negative spiritual climate is rising here in Bangkok as several important Hindu and Buddhist festivals take place in the next several weeks. Two of the women from NightLight are staying with us temporarily because they are being harassed by spirits in their sleep. We have a full house! Goi's baby has dropped so she will deliver soon. Then we will have a newborn baby join our community at the volunteer house. I am looking forward to helping Goi experience the joys of motherhood. I just don't know the Thai ways...but I will soon learn.
Continue to pray for us as every day is a new challenge. There are twelve women waiting for prayer ministry and not enough hours in the day. At times I am so exhausted and then God gives me a spiritual boost. I am THANKFUL that his Holy Spirit empowers us to do the things we know we cannot do without Him.
I am so THANKFUL for the opportunity to serve God and see miracles everyday. I am so THANKFUL for family and friends who are praying for me and supporting me. I am so THANKFUL that I have been healed and delivered so God can use me to bring healing and deliverance.
I PRAISE HIM AND THANK HIM FOR HIS GOODNESS TO US ALL!
