I shared this week about Anton that overcame his
shyness. While riding past the very busy market on the highway, an old, stroke
ridden uncle stood on the side of the road and try to cross. Here, nobody stops
as everyone just rushes ahead and you need to dash over the road if you want. I
asked Anton to go and give the uncle a help. He bravely took the uncle and
escorted him through traffic. Got a big thank you, even from the policeman on
the side of the road. Back in the car he
said: ”Dad do not ask me to do it again as it was awkward and I am shy.” Well,
we could talk about this and I told him that small acts of kindness make a big
difference. We as Christians need to show God’s love in action. Pray with us
that we as parents can teach them while they are still young in order for them
to understand the importance of kindness.
Our family is going through the moments of illness. Toinette
is very sick with bad flu and coughing as well as Gideon with flu already for
one week. Mordegai got a double ear infection and a nasty cough. The only one
that is free is Anton. Pray that we will get rid of these illnesses soon.
I will drive all the way to Ratanakiri this week and
did some outreach in a very remote area with my friend Samai. Pray for safe
travels on these roads. Pray for people to be open to our help and pray for the
pastor involved to show God’s love in action.
Please continue to pray for Fe.
Faith Journey Update:
10th Chemo(12 more to go)
Thankful to God for a fresh new day! For
the first time, i went to the hospital without my wig on. Felt so light...wooh!
Lovely, a nurse friend who had been in Living New Ministries- Medical Team to
Cambodia was available to drive me today. Praise God Ruby, my caring and very
selfless friend, was here to run for me my needed medicines. These two ladies
are great blessings.
REFLECTION
My IV drip went so slow today. The
moment I looked at it and waited for the next drop to come, i got frustrated
and i thought, it's endless. So i decided to just rest and never looked at it.
Soon it was gone.
It's like in my journey. There were times,
i got so caught up with many thoughts about, " what if my cancer will end
my life soon? "how can i do what i used to do with my condition?",
how can we provide for our family's needs?" How can we be there for
others?" worries...anxieties...helplessness.oh...they really come and stay
if i allow too. BUT, when I close my eyes, and REST in the LORD, the PEACE of
GOD that passes all understanding( Philipoians 4:4-7) guards my Heart in Christ
Jesus.
Beloved friends, Thank you for holding
on! I know that you all are there praying for me and my family which I
appreciate that, but I want you to be Strong in the Lord more. I don't know
what you too are going through in your personal Journey....How i wish i could
be a blessing to you in return. Be rest assured, God will never leave you.
There is an end to all our troubles!
Please pray for Cambodia in these very dark times.
The ceremony is hei neak ta, or
“procession of the spirits”, and comprises a thousands-strong parade that
includes bloody, but beloved, displays of devotion in the form of sliced
tongues and spikes through cheeks.
The procession makes its way from the
Sam Orng Chinese temple along the banks of the Tonle Bassac river to the
Monivong Bridge. Marking the 15th, and final, day of Chinese New Year
festivities, the festival is held here, in Meanchey district, as well as near
O’Russey Market and in Takhmao – and versions of the festival also take place
in countries around Asia. Participants are hoping for good fortune in the
coming year, as well as to remove demonic influences from their homes.
For you who do not want to go online, I include a
Document file on the bottom
Thank you very much for praying for us. We cannot
stress the importance of your prayers.
Love
Rossouw-clan
