#Day 59: 28 February 2016

NEW JOURNEY

Today we are starting our new journey. The new journey in finding a new home for us for FGCC. It is the Fund Raising kick off day. A fund raising for the new FGCC home, for all of us and all the new members of God's family in the future.

I really learned a lot during the preparation for the kick off. I learned about being humble, about listening to others, also about not calculative about work, about time management, and most of all, I learn about doing things for God (not by might, not by power, but by the spirit of God)

We are starting a new journey, I personally starting a new journey as well. With the promise of faith together with my fellow FGCC members.

I guess the feeling is kinda similar with how the Israelites felt during exodus time. The feeling of uncertainty of the future, feeling unsure, though at least they have the cloud and fire to guide them.

Exodus 40:36 “Throughout all their journeys, whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the people of Israel would set out.” 

For us, we might not have those cloud and fire to guide us through this journey. But we have God's Word! We have God Himself leading us through this.

I guess there is a reason why I was reminded "about giving" yesterday. That "Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord your God that he has given you." Deuteronomy 16:17

We have Jesus, to guide us. Holy Spirit to help us:  “For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.” Psalm 91:11

I believe, my part is to take that step in faith. That God will make clear the path, as long as our journey is not merely for our comfort but for His glory.

• It's like when I took that step to leave my hometown to Jakarta, where I found and accepts Jesus.
• It's like when I took that step to leave Indonesia to Singapore, where after that to visit several other places in the world (until now I am still amaze how blessed I am, remembering how we even struggle to pay our high school fee at time)
• It's like when I took the step and moving out from my comfort zone at work and pursue my dreams, where I jump from a role to another and enjoy all the growth.
• Like when I decided to return to Asia, where God put me back to FGCC.

In all those, I know one thing, God always make the path straight in the end, for our good, for those who set their eyes on Him.

All glory to God. I am now able to participate on a new journey. The journey of finding new home for FGCC.

I pray and hope, everyone of us reading this, is touched and strengthen by God to participate, in any form that God wants you to help. Amen.

Another day full of blessing.
