G’day from Thailand 2

Everyone wants to live a comfortable life in a comfortable place in a beautiful country. Despite the heat and political problems, Thailand is a place where I want to reside in for the rest of my life – mainly because of the spicy foods :-)
 
I only have one more week left beforel I return to my Brisbane – a place where God called me to be in. If I want to do what I want for my life, I would quit my job, ministry and everything in Brisbane and fly back to live comfortably here in Thailand but as God has already called me to serve Him in Brisbane. I can do nothing except gladly surrender my will to Him in obedience like Abraham.”By faith, he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents … For he was looking forward to the city with foundations whose architect and builder is God [Heb 11:9-10]“  Thanking God for my parents too. They give me a freewill in making a decision for my own future including a country where I want to reside.
 
May my attitude be like Abraham always. May I not be too attached with either Thailand or Brisbane. May I live in everyplace I go like living a tent so when God calls me, I will be able to move quickly with Him. May I live in this world like living in a tent and look forward to my true home: heaven. I pray like Jesus that may God’s will NOT my will be done in my life. I only have one life to live, may I live it to the fullness for God. May God make me international so I can live in any place in this world.
 
I will be going to Bangkok on 30th April to celebrate my 22nd birthday with my grandparents and to do a little bit more of shopping :-p. I won’t be able to have my birthday in Brissy this year but if you want to bless Jimmie Thongkul, please drop me a word of encouragement via e-mail,facebook or blog . I love encouragement in any forms – it is something that boost me go on an extra mile with God. This is a blessing when we commit ourself to a local church. 
 
I will fly back to Brissy on 4th May. Anyone want to pick me up from the airport?? Ming, I know you will :p
 
Loved much,
 
Natthawut Thongkul

    Early greeting Happy Birthday to my Brother in Christ….Can see that you are becoming more and more mature,;p! Glad to see that you wanted God’s will be done than your will be done. God is everything in our life, without God in the centre of our heart or life, we are like life without a shepherd or without a compass to lead us to the right direction. Keep growing spiritually and expand physically…I wanna see a chubby, chubby Jimmie back in life group!! hahahahaha!!

    Glad to see you back in Brisbane now, and willing to do the work of our Father in heaven. Yeah let everywhere we go be as unto the Lord, there will always be those around us that need him :) . Lets reach out a hand to them, that they may see the love that Jesus has for them.

    a true inspiring piece of diary jim! Im sure God is smiling happily up there =)
    Yep, lets live our lives like Abraham so that we would not be reluctant when God calls us to proceed & play apart in His will.
    Ganbatte Jimmie-san! *means press on/lets do it in Jap*
