We are part of the Church life both in Sweden and in Ubon-Pakse. Its a privilege and a blessing to feel the heart of God in the midst of the church and the society.
I can see 3 types of Christians:
1. Those who are worn out in a hectic world. They are coming to church to relax. They do not want to have more work, but need a touch
of God to keep on going.
2. Those who are along.
Loneliness in Sweden is a major public illness. They are coming to church to serve God and people.
3. Those who love Jesus, but do not find a place in
a local church. We meet this group of people both in Asia and in
Sweden. We are praying that these brothers and sisters should feel the Church as
open and welcome as Jesus himself:
Rehoboth (Hebrew: רְחוֹבוֹת, Reḥovot; lit. broad places.
For now the Lord has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.”
Genesis
26:22
We are this fall (up to Oct 2) visiting homes, individuals, Second Hand
and Churches in Sweden. We feel very welcomed. Today I went by boat to the church.
Love
Jesus and love the Church.
