The Light ... and prevention

Prevention is a key part of the work here in Ubon-Pakse — not only regarding Child Protection Policies (CPP) but also in other areas of life. It gives value to people at the grassroots level. We listen to them and believe in them. Indeed, we all need help from God and from others to think ahead.

                                            

Many people here have suffered abuse and consequently believe that they must become strong enough to stand entirely on their own. It is hard for them to trust others. We therefore encourage people to talk to others and ask God for wisdom. Prevention helps the whole family—not least the children and teenagers.     

It is only the light—the Good News—that brings victory. We can than help others, go the extra mile and bless those who curse. It is God’s agape love... in action.

Thank you for participating in our 2 parts through prayer, care, and financial support.

Life-teaching .... along the Isaan and Lao roads.

In my twenties, I enjoyed reading the books of E. Stanley Jones like *The Unshakable Kingdom and the Unchanging Person* and *Christ Along the Indian Roads*. He died in Uttar Pradesh, India, in January 1973 at the age of 89. I never met him, but his life and work inspired me.   

I love presenting The Good News so that people experience the Good God’s Word and the Good God’s presence. This is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. The Word became flesh and dwelt among us >>>> and we saw His glory. John 1:14

God’s Living Word is here. >>>> The Living God is here.

My spiritual parents had words of wisdom for me, but I no longer remember what they said. Only that: "I wanted to be like them. To have the LIFE they had." 

                                                  -------------------------

A man parked his car but forgot to turn off the lights. After three hours, he couldn't start the car. He needed help, so he borrowed another car and Jump Cables.

                                    

Then it started... instantly. He drove the car for a while so the alternator could charge the battery.

The lesson is this:

Sometimes we lose our energy. We feel like we are prisoners of our own mistakes.

At times like these, we need to receive a "Jump start"— and sometimes we need to give "Jump Start" to others. So we all in moments of powerlessness, can receive help from God and from other people.

Leaving the lights on for hours while the engine is running... is no problem. But if we aren't Up&Running, it is only a matter of time before the power runs out.

Have a great week Up&Running with God in the life's journey.

My and others Track Record?

Over the years, we all are building up our own Track Record, CV, list of achievements, personal history, learning experiences, and +++ from both good and bad experiences. Those who have been abused struggle with constant fear. Unfortunately, the solution most do is: Smile, Smile, and Disappear.

                  

Children, teens and adults, who have been Left Behind are looking for spiritual parents and a living and mighty God. See 2 Cor 1:3-4

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, >>>>

that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

They all look for the true Agape-love that only comes from our heavenly Father. The Agape Love is = Unconditional giving, selfless, and faithful.

Where are you daddy?

Left Behind is a concept when children can not move with their parents to a new place of work and have to stay back with grandmother. 80 % of the children in Isaan are not living with their parents.  

We are now working with many teens that are indeed Left Behind.
