First of all, we would like to thank God for bringing Veronica and Danny safely to Chiang Mai. They had a warm warn reception as you would all have excepted it. Veronica got a bouquet of flowers while Danny receive a "CROWN (of flowers)", cute though. Really appreciate the Thais for spending so much time and effort to make us feel welcome. Kop Khun maak na... ...
P Robert brought us all to Bake & Bites for breakfast. The portion were HUGE but we did manage not to waste food, thanks to Basil... After B'fast P Robert drop the guys at the zone and drove the girls to his house. Andris stayed at P Robert house and Veron will too for the day.
UNPACKING TIME. Before we know it, lunch time, "Kaw Soy".
More fellowship at the zone, and we interns had our equipping time around 3pm in the library at the zone. We read thru Chapter 1 of the "Red Book" & studied on the book by Richard J. Foster. Summary of the study is about focusing on God, entering into HIS awesome presence to be changed by HIM. Not just the outward changes that man might see, but a change in our attitudes that will then produce the outward fruits in our new life in Christ. Coming into the presence of God may be hard and difficult but are we willing to move towards the Light of Christ and be BURNED by HIM, REFINE by HIM for HIM to remove all impurities from our lives. I believe there are many more thots than these here, I pray and hope that you all will take some time to ask them personally as I think God can encourage both the interns as well as the receiver. And the truth will be more grounded as they shared their convictions and the receiver encouraged by the truth. (K**** and K****** dun sleep, wake up, hee hee... ...)
Have to confess that I nod off now and then during equipping time, no excuses but I hope that all of you will pray with me for God's strength and wisdom to manage our time well for God deserve the very best from us.
Dinner and P Robert drove the girls back to his home after that. Guys went back to the zone and it was SKIP-BO time with the students again. It was fun and I guess sometimes people are too engross and caught up in the excitement and did some silly things during the game. Hope nobody was offended and really thank God once again for the students for spending their precious time with us although they have morning class the next day.

Woke up, wash up and before we know it was equipping time at the library again. This morning we read thru chapter 2 of the "Red Book" and went thru the chapter on "Meditation". Summary of the study is that Christian Meditation is not just like any other forms of meditation. It not just about emptying our mind from everything as is the norm with most other meditation, we should actually come before the presence of God and FILL our mind with Christ. We should also not think that meditation is only for the SPIRITUAL GIANTS, but for ALL of us. P Robert practically did a meditation with us and I believed all of us gain something out of it, be it the meditation itself or the sharing after that. Too many interns thots to put it here and like I say, I giving you all the opportunity to fellowship with one another, so go ask them once again, hee hee.
Lunch at PAYAP Campus... ... In the afternoon went shopping, the students and interns will be cooking for Zone Pro Cell later in the night. Came back and rest a little bit befoe we start the preparation of the Food. Dun really know the name of the dish but its THAI noodles. Cell group after that, Marvin led us in a time of songs and P Robert shared a Devo. To put it shortly, see EVERYBODY as Christ himself, then we will learn to treat people with the correct attitude. Cell ended but the students stayed back as per norm. We had a wonderful time of singspiration and sharing, ended the day around 2300hrs with a prayer. Both Interns and Students need their respective rest as well.
Talking about rest, I need mine too. Sorry for the nagging as this is the problem of not blogging daily, my bad... ...
*Sorry to say no photos for now, after the formatting of the computer at the zone theres no photoshop to do all the editing and resizing of the photos. I will try to overcome it with the simplest of way, but till then please bear with all the words and bare-ness...
GOD BLESS all HIS wonderful creation.
