Water festival holiday

Water festival or "Song gran festival" the festival that they told us to believed that territorial gods are shifting their duties. There is no gods on duty during the time. I believed of what they told me. In a poor village house in Tamiram I stayed then in the village of the South, in Pattalung province. We used to think that because of our "kamar" or what we have done in the previous life. What a lie we believed and even now many still believe that lie, but changing to become tradition and local culture. Thanks God to the Lord Jesus Christ who come to redeem us, set us free and become the way and the truth to us.

People believe that during period of shifting gods there will have no protection from them so they have holidays just to enjoy without their gods around. In my village there are opening gambling, bull fighting and they went around with bucket of water some go to river side to pour water to each others. This is the time boys and girls will have opportunity to get to see each others. They dress nicely not just to get wet but to show off as well. Nowaday the thing changed the village game become only sculpture left.

Where the mission for Christ, teaching in tyhe preaching point is in industrial areas during this period workers are going back to where they come from there are not many workers left in the area. Workers came from many places, some of their home town stay as far as Chiang Rai Northern tip province of Thailand. The North Easterners are also flooded the area. Many settle down near their working place but nontheless they want to go back to their home villages. Theu get uased to that sort of life style.

I have a call from the founder Dr. Wiseth that the Thursday's teaching is calcelled that reminded me of my vacation planned earlier. I do not want to bother my co-labour for Christ during the holiday period but they insisted. We then left Conburi earlier at 9.00 am. to avoid traffic in the after noon. Anyway we spent the whole morning in the shopping area before going to the airport in the afternoon.

"Th 5:18 In every circumstance of life be thankful; for this is God's will in Christ Jesus respecting you. "

I left Thailand during the period that their territoril gods are also travelling, the plane left Suvannapumi aiirport at night. During my prayer time in Chonburi I look up to see the star through the window and reminded me of its creator and He is my God, the Almighty who loves us so much. Earlier after the plane left the airport I look outside through the window pane I did not see anything. It is so dark outside as I am thinking about Him who created me that He is so wonderful good much better than any pilots of the world. The pilot flies through the dark with the help of the redar and equipment but my God lead me to the unknown with assurance that He is perfect and surely save we can trust. When I turned my eyes look downward I saw many brinking lights like stars in that darkness. We will become that light of the world with Him.

" Ephesians 5:8 There was a time when you were nothing but darkness. Now, as Christians, you are Light itself.
Eph 5:9 Live and act as sons of Light--for the effect of the Light is seen in every kind of goodness, uprightness and truth--
Eph 5:10 and learn in your own experiences what is fully pleasing to the Lord.

Thank God that I can come to attend Rev. Simmon Potter preaching, teaching and that blessed my heart looking forward to the things God shows us and want us to do with Him. He is wonderful God
