Five Minute Friday: Wonder

Soputan Mt., North Sulawesi, Indonesia (by Dave Gullett, 06:00 AM local time, 2008/08/16)

I am thinking about this Friday topic for 2 days! The topic of this 5 Minute Friday is “W.O.N.D.E.R.” One think that I could think about this word is what God has been doing in my life since 9 years ago.

As a verb, one of the descriptions of the word wonder is desire or be curious to know something. That was what I did up till 10 years ago. I was wondering if my life would be different and changed and if I would have hope and better future. And a year later, yes, it was 10 years ago I found the answer. God found me and opened my eyes to the real God and experience his unconditional love and eternal hope that I have in Jesus Christ.

That is what I call “The Wonder”, all what God has been doing in my life since the day he found, redeemed and saved me. Up till now, He still do his wonders in my life, my families and friends. The wonders that Jesus did when he as on earth never just stop there when he went up to heaven and sit on the right hand of God, but those wonders are still happening up till now and even continue until Jesus comes back in his glory.

Five Minute Friday: Home

Go.

Home is the most place I always wanna be in my life.

Home is where I was born.

Home is where I grew and learned to walk.

Home is where I learned about life.

Home is where I find my love.

Home is where I learn to love and be loved.

Home is where I raise my little girl.

I have homes here on Earth and I know well in my soul that I will have a place in my Father’s home.

I miss my home.

Stop.

Prayer & Mission

“Climbing Higher” is one of the books that I’ve been reading lately. It’s an inspiration for the Cross-Cultural Church Planter by Roger Dixon. Roger and his Wife, Jan have been involved in evangelism and church planting among the Muslims for more than 40 years. The whole family moved to Indonesia in 1964 and studied extensive culture study for four years. They worked among the one of the largest unreached people group in Indonesia.

The book inspires, motives and encourages me so much in this preparation times. We are planning to do mission work in one of these Muslim majority countries. Be honest, I am struggling, spiritually and emotionally. It’s not only me and myself that will go, but now the whole family. It’s not only me that need to prepare myself, but also the whole family.

I found this statement change my perspective of prayer and be a prayer support to others and I hope it will change yours, too.
