By the Grace of God

And if by grace, then it is no longer by works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace.

Joel Osteen shares this funny story:
A mother was cooking pancake for her two young sons.  Ryan is 5 and Kevin is 3. They began to argue who will get the first one. The mother saw an opportunity to teach them a lesson. She said, Boys! Boys! If Jesus is here he will say, “let my brother have the first one”. Ryan turned to his younger brother and said, “OK, Kevin! you’ll be Jesus.” Ha! ha! ha!!!

A true story
Like those kids, when I was a 5 years old kid, I also asked my mom for a cake and had to wait at least 2/sometime 3 days. My mom loves me so much but she doesn’t bake cake. So she had to buy from a town called Tangyan which is 12 miles far away from our village Nawngpha. She used to travel to Tangyan once a week to buy goods to sell on weekly bazaar day at Nawngpha. As for a small kid, waiting 2 days for cake is a big challenge but I had to patiently wait anyway. Back then, in 1964, there was no motor car, electricity, telephone or not even a radio in Nawngha; and people spoke only Tai language (Tai-mother tongue). But now, I am here in New York – the greatest city in the world, and can get the best cheese cake right away. My language skills improved to the extent that I can accurately translate English to Tai to share the good news with my fellows Tai folks. This may be just a small thing but it is a beautiful and joyful thing in my life. My whole life is a testimony to my maker who is the creator of heaven and earth. He has changed me and brought me out together with my family, as far as from the east to west about 10,000 miles away from my native land. I am absolutely sure that is a miracle of the amazing grace. I realize that everything just wonderfully happen in its timing.

Father God, the creator of all things, thank you so much for Your mercy and grace onto us. All of my help comes from You. Today, I praise You and give thanks in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
