Chapter 12 : Connections

O Lord … In Thailand we Thais always like to find ‘connections’ in doing things. Having ‘connections’ means one can get things done more speedily or more conveniently. There is nothing wrong in having ‘connections’ or in trying to find one. I am sure it’s the same way in many other countries around the world.

Right now, I’ve discovered the biggest and most powerful ‘connection’ in the entire universe, You!

Please give me permission to elaborate through this prayer.

Nowadays no matter what I do, in business, in personal or family affairs, etc. I’d ask You to ‘lead’ me and to be ‘caretaker’ for me. I pray every day that I can serve You according to Your will. At the same time I teach all my children to pray for guidance in everything they do, and to thank You no matter what they get for You know better than Your children. After we practice this absolute faith in You, what we get as the result is wow! , we get everything we pray for! Since our faith in You is unconditional, we have learned to accept things according to YOUR will rather than OUR will. The result is that we feel we RECEIVE Your blessings every day. In being able to accept our disappointments when we don’t get what we pray for as Your blessing is indeed the greatest blessing in itself!

Thank You, my Lord, thank You!

“So, we say with confidence, ‘The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?’” Hebrews 13:6

“Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances,
for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” 1 Thessalonians 5: 5-8

Amen.

A Child of God
