We are doing well and have both concern and trust. We are
here in Ubon-Pakse and are not afraid of being infected by the Corona virus, but
because tourism and trade are now falling in other parts of Thailand and Asia, people from Isaan
and Laos are now losing their jobs and must return home, unemployed. It is obvious to us that people have less money to spend. And unfortunately, many
teenagers are now forced to quit school and take bad jobs.
When Ove Anbäcken worked with us in Chiang Mai, he
often refered to Learning Experiences. (= my Testimony). He really had an
attitude of not only counting on knowledge and facts but also our Learning Experiences.
And that attitude blessed us also. We have over the years received many
testimonies of how God helped us. With God's help we have
come-through-stronger.
We are Equipped to Equip. We follow Jesus so people
can follow JESUS. Let us live in:
Col 3:15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts,
to which also you were called in one body;
and be thankful.
One fact is that when life is tough – people are seeking
the spiritual in a greater way. We have now therefore the opportunity to
present JESUS and testify of what He has done and are doing in us. No one can
take away from me my Learning Experience. Worry is an active factor, but God's
peace is stronger…. and His Peace can reign in our hearts also today.
