Anna and I are now 2 ½ day in (or should we say under) the new Juniper Tree in Pranburi, south of Hua Hin. The SPM annual meeting is here this year. This is a wonderful place we can recommend. http://www.juniper-tree.org/dolphin-bay.html The name Juniper Tree comes from 1 Kings 19:4 -Today we will go back up to Bangkok and Anna home to Chiang Mai this evening. I will stay in Bangkok to Monday evening and be involved in the some Flood work.
Today is The 1st Sunday of Advent. The title on this Sunday, according to a Swedish Church calendar is “A year of grace." I like that. Everywhere we go we see the need for God's kind of grace. Not only the human kind of grace, which can be more like “blindness”, but the true Grace of God. This Grace is not head knowledge but ... .. activated in practice for ourselves and for others.
These days we have a Norwegian Pastor who leads us in bible studies. He is good and gives us a big portion of new and fresh grace from God himself.
Under the Juniper Tree (or broom tree) Elijah had an heavenly encounter and had food that strengthen him for 40 days and 40 night. God’s touch and food is indeed powerful. Ingvar
