I am His

This ring has very significant meaning for me. It was engraved in Kathmandu with Nepali words. I almost lost this ring once. I searched for it everywhere and I couldn't find it. I prayed, "God, please help me to find this ring, it means a lot to me" instantly I felt a strong prompting, "go look for it under the washing machine". So i went, lo and behold, my ring was right under the washing machine. Who would ever thought so.... this is not the first time God help me to searched for my lost things but this ring is very special to me and I'm glad He helps me to find it back. I lost Him once, I don't want to lose Him again.


It was not always so with the bride.
Once she was contented in His absense; other society and other occupations took up her interest. But now it can never be so again.
The world can never be to her what it once was.
The betrothed bride has learned to love her Lord,
and no other society than His can satisfy her.

God is great!!

Evangelism Night
During our evangelism night tonight, we came across a lady from China. We approached her and asked if we could pray for her and we shared about who we are and we believe in Jesus, she replied very proudly she doesn't believe in anything and that she read the "text book" from Genesis to Revelation but somehow she allowed us to pray for her. After I finished praying for her, I saw her tears kept rolling down and she said she never felt like this before and she said she is afraid of this power, we explain to her that this power is the love of God to her and He desires relationship with her and her tears kept rolling down and at the end she prayed a prayer to ask God to reveal Himself to her and that she wants to know Him more and she invited Jesus into her heart. All this happened in less than 15minutes time!! God can change a person heart just like this! God is more powerful than the harden unbelief wall of China. I'm so excited to able to experience and witness the soft ground of China for Jesus!!

As you read this please prayed for this girl, that Jesus will reveal Himself to her and bring christians who loves God across her path and she will give her life to Jesus and follow after Him.

He Provides!
God is not just moving in nations and others but He also take care of me!! Every small little details as well, during our staff meeting on Wednesday, Shirley Brownhill (YWAM Perth Director) asked who need a toothpaste, few people put up their hands and then she asked who has extra toothpaste to give away and few put up their hands and she goes on with different toiletries items and guess what she asked who need hair conditioner and I put up my hand and I got one now!! The coolest thing is; my conditioner ran out last week and I checked with God if I should go and buy and I felt no, that He will give it to me and He did.. God is so amazing that He cares and provides for every little things that we need. I even received two free contact lense solutions bottle when I needed one!! He is always faithful and good!
I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed. Psalm 37:25- 26


Oh my gosh, as i am typing this someone just knocked on my door and gave me a bag full of food, green tea & Earl Grey (i've been wanting to buy green tea for months & i love earl grey tea), chocolates, many toothpaste, pen, etc and tooth brush!! I been praying for tooth brush too!!! And with 100 dollar cheques!! Whoa!! I am now down to 3,900AUD to go... =)

Testimonies

Shout His Name through All the earth.

Finances

I am debt free by His grace, my staff fees debts of 720AUD are all miracoulously provided by Him from a total stranger I met last year on the plane back from Kathmandu to Bangkok. During that flight this man said he felt like God asked him to give me a verse and audio sermon to listen to. I was stocked! Because the message that he gave me was exactly what God spoke to me about, not only that before he left the plane, he said God asked him to bless me 85USD and I haven't hear back from him eversince then but God has been using him to bless me twice at the time I needed the money. I don't know who this person is? God ways of provision is beyond our understanding.


God has not only provided for me through this man but also through few different people and my co-partners from Malaysia too. My coming Foundation Community Development School lecture fees has been covered! The school has not even started yet. I remembered in the past, money always came in last minute and my last trip to Nepal was a total hard attack and test of my faith, stepping out into Nepal without visa money and seeing how God's faithfulness always comes through and never fail. Praise God! The best part to praise Him is that He has provided for me not only for my needs or enough to pass by but He bless me to be a channel of blessings to others.



Evangelism Night

As a commitment to YWAM Perth, we have evangelism night every Thursday to a place that we will be assign to for the whole quarter. I was placed in a shopping mall for this quarter, to be honest I wasn't really keen because I find it scarry and with unbelief in my heart that God will move through me. One of the Thursday night, I repent and press into God to show me who to talk to. God showed my evangelism partner and I both a picture. I got a picture of an aussie young guy with baggy dark blue shirt with rugged look in a dark lane. I got a word for him that says, “Come, come under the shadow of my wings. I will protect you. I will watch over you. I will send my angels to guard over you.” and sense that he is not a christian. On the other side my partner got a picture of an aussie lady with dark hair sitting in a cafe, we went for search for it but decided not to and allow God to lead us and later on my partner met a lady she came across with few weeks ago in evangelism night invited us to go for a coffee. I wanted to but felt the urge from God to look for the man and pass him the message i've got. So we both parted.


I went with another girl searching for this man and when time was up for us to go home. I was discouraged and as we walked out from the mall, we saw groups of young people and police man surrounded a guy and guess what it was exactly the same guy I saw in the picture, the way he dress, his look, his size, his age, hair color, everything was the same. I walked away at first but God urge me to go back and passed the message to him but he wasn't around the second time only left some security polices, so with the strong urgency that gets stronger and stronger in my heart and encouragement from my friend, I went over to the police and asked them about this young man and of course the police became suspicious of me but the moment I shared i'm a christian, one of the police pull me away and said he too is and he also encourage me by saying, “Believe me, sometimes the strangest thing are the most powerful thing” so he took down notes on what God spoke to me about this young guy and to pass those message to him. He told us, “Believe me this guy needs this message no better time than now, he is caught for assaults, not only that but he has assaulted the largest gangster in Perth City.


This experience taught me two things:

a) As we are being available and expectation to hear from Him, we will!

b) God's love is so amazing! He even has such personal and promising message to a man who doesn't know Him and commited a crime that has totally cause by his own self. Wow! That reminds me of God's love to me too. But not only that God loves that guy so much that he send His children to intercede for him and to gave him these words.

Ex34:6 is so beautiful – The Lord, the Lord, the compasionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. How true is that!! God is so loving, so compassionate and kind!


Grace of God

It was the hardest step of obedience for me to come back to YWAM Perth because during my DTS time, it was SO INTENSE! Going through discipline, revelation of my own sinfulness (was so unbearable PAINFUL), culture shocks, homesick, loneliness, fears, etc.. I remembered especially after I got back from my Nepal/KL trip in March, walking back from the base to my house.. tears kept running down, I couldnt hold it. I was asking God, “Why? Why, Jesus you call me here? I don't feel call to reach out to western people or Australia, my heart is for Asia, Nepal, etc..?” As I honestly pour out my heart to God. I felt God asked me to fast for a change of heart. It only takes me a week for my heart to change. God spoke to me everyday during that week and my heart change! I feel at home now, I love it here and I know His grace is sufficient for me and made perfect in my weaknesses. And I know now I can live anywhere and do anything because Christ is with me and in me. I can do All things through Christ who strengthen me!


My relationship with God.

I'm blessed by my leaders here, they really stand by us to see breakthrough happens in our own personal life, they fear God, always tell us to seek God's heart and voice in everything and anything we do and obey. They encourages us to pursue and love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength and love others, pursue purity and holiness. My relationship with Jesus here grows so deep again (I experienced deepness with God during my DTS time here) I am so glad I grow deeper with Him. He is so real in my life! So deep! Through my leaders I understand and know what it truly means to Fears the Lord. I learnt Fear of the Lord means revering, honoring God's opinion and feeling in everything and let Him be Lord over our ALL. God reveal to me my whole life I was restless because He is the One my heart longs for, cried out for, seeking after. He is the One I longs to worship, there is this deep whole in my heart only He can fill! He is so Amazing!! I am walking in His promises. His words is true because His words is who He is. I'm blessed by His grace that He helps me to obey and as I step out and obey, He gaves me understanding, His perspectives that His heart desire is for my very best. I can rest in Him and trust Him for who He is and trust in His words because Out of the abundance of (God's )heart, He speaks!



Nepal

God's hand in this ministry. he answered our prayers. He goes before us to speak to YWAM Nepal leaders and YWAM Indonesia leaders, put same vision and burdens in their heart. Clear communication. He even brought non believer Nepalis to come to our base and one of them volunteer to teach us Nepali language. The best part is He answers our prayers by raising up more ARMIES (WORKERS) who has the same heartbeat and passion to see this vision fulfilled. Praise God! If you like to know more about this ministry or vision or how you can be apart, please write to me for more informations.


There's many more I wish I can shared it all with you but it will be pages long. All I can sum up here of my few my past few months was AMAZING!!! I'm satisfy in Him. I'm set FREE by Him. I'm walking in His Promises and Blessing. I'm living under His Grace. I guess is a real smart choice to allow the King of the universe who created me, loves me and gave Himself for me to be Lord over my life!
