Blessed New Year to all who read this blog...
Year 2005 is esp a hard year for the Thong family and i dont really know what to say but to Praise the Lord anyway!!!!
Its tough,sitting here in the computer room where my late bro used to sit for hours playing his fav online games and here iam in the same room..trying to write something on 'his' blog...all i can say its a tough year for everyone...trying to think of something good happen that year..
but what i wanted to say is bad things do happen to good people.Sometimes we just dont understand why it happen this way but in reality it does.
Its funny that all i can ever think of is all the negetive things that has happen that year...my family income was down to more than 50% lost of income,family car got collided with another car and cost us $$$,another incident with a motorcycle's that gives us more stress..then my grandma was terminally ill and passed away follow by my bro David few months down the road!!!!- [EDITED]-pls see previous post.
You know i always misunderstand him why he worked as a 'event manager' (must be pretty good pay) but never once take some money home.. i assume that he had gone to the 'wild' side..Spending his money lavishly..ect... How wrong i have been!!.Ever since he work for them and the group that he hang out with he started to drink ..partly because of break ups with gf.. i've heard but partly because of finance too..i remember he actually got pretty drunk (drinks was paid by the company) and arrived home at about 4am one night and i've never seen him like this b4..how my heart hurts for him, i wish i know whats wrong but we never communicated..all i can do is to pray for him silently..while he's asleep..
Anyway his sickness really takes its toll this year not just on his own life but financially on the family.
I remembered begining (after the car accident somewhere around feb-april) that year 2005 for some unknown (or known) reason i begin to prayed esp hard for my family, was waking up at 4-5am and praying for like an 15min-half an hour a day. Later when i read about Dave roberson book on 'walk of Spirit walk of power' i begin to pray in tongues almost everyday.
Well since you prayed so hard ,why bad things still happened ? To be honest iam asking the same question myself. But consider this:
-my Grandma gives her live to Jesus Christ b4 she passed away to glory
- the day b4 my Bro david major surgery,God in His mercy sent a couple from indonesia ministered to him and me,my family together we prayed the classic sinners prayer.They are there at the hospital to meet us everytime my bro went in and out of hosp during midnight crisis.They never slept! They talk to my bro and later i've found out that my bro did confess to them he wanted to change,God will help him change and a second chance.Also during david's stay at the hospital ive seen lots of christian prayed for him. Surely God will do a miracle ,so many prayers!?
Well He did , He took my bro who is now in a better place than me. But can God healed him? Yes He can but i guess He knows what's best for my bro. Only God knows our futures and what will become of my bro if he lives on in this lives ? Only God knows.
Even though God did not answered my prayers the way i wanted to, i will keep on praying.
You know what is the hardest part in praying?When watching someone you loved sliping away.. and saying at the same time ' Lord i praise You, everything is in your hands,ive have done all i can according to what i know and i surrender everything into Your Hands' Still hoping somewhere that a miracle will happen and my bro raised up.God is Just. My bro will indeed raised up but not according to my own timing.
a prayer - 'Jesus Christ i commit my late bro David to you,i let him go and let You take over,death and life is in your Hands,You are righteous,fair and just in Your dealings' amen.
Year 2006 is here and only God knows what lies ahead of us.Dont let events caught you by supprise.If you're a christian but have stop praying ,pray now.Stop fooling around,gives your lives to Jesus Christ!!We can't save ourselves only Jesus can saved you cus He took your place and received the punishment that is supposely on you.For those who are not christian - Jesus Christ IS THE only Way the Truth and the Life. Jesus receives ALL those who come to Him but you need to do just one thing .. humble yourself,confess your sins and give your life to Him and follow Him.He will received you and will not reject you.
No iam not asking you to 'receive' or 'accept' or even 'believe' in Him ..even the devil 'believe' that God exits and tremble doesn't need your 'acceptance' simply because He is not having a inferiority complex.. in need of ppl accepting Him.He doesn't need your 'receiving' cus weather you receive Him or not makes no difference to Him. But God wants your very live and heart, so that he can saved you from destruction,not damaging yourself and others around you and change you.
Blessed New Year !!! I can hear fireworks outside my house ... Well i wish all of you in good health,peace,prosper in every area of your life esp in the area of knowing God.
'A prayer for New Year 2006 - 'Lord Jesus Christ i know iam not perfect and iam a sinner trying to change with my own strength but couldn't,i know that You died for me on the cross so that i can have the strength to change and turn away from sin and start doing the right things in life.This year 2006 at this very moments i give my life to YOU, i surrender my life to You,filled my heart with Your love,give me your strength so that i can face what is ahead.Give me Your strength to change.From now onwards 2006 i will follow You all the way.Thank you for dying on the cross for me and taking away my sins,thank You for You have shed Your blood on the cross for me so that i can have life more abundantly.
Heavenly Father i thank You that you loved me so much and You have sent Your Son Jesus Christ to died on the cross for me in exchange for my sin and condemnation and giving me life, In Jesus name i pray,amen.
