Missionaries in Myanmar: PART 1
“Dear loving Brethren,
I am writing this Report with a broken and trembling heart.My eye is filled with sadness and tears of hurt. First of all I want to beg you to pray for our safety and protection.
The military has taken control and is killing civilians. Everyday we needed to collect dead bodies on the road with tears and pains.Banks are being shut down, and it isn’t easy to get online.
Everywhere is filled with smoke and fire as factories are burned and destroyed.Thousands of people don’t have work,food,and a place to stay now.Almost all of our church members ran back to their village. There is neither market nor a shop where we can buy food because every road is blocked.How long will we last if it continues like this!?
Just a while ago, the soldiers’ truck came and stopped near our house. We were terrified; they captured six people who were having tea in the shop. God is my only Hope.

@KarlGessler can you let us know how it goes on Friday?

Prayed thie afternoon (UK afternoon anyway!) and will pray tomorrow and Friday PM

GoDeeper with Andy B, who talks about keeping a good balance between spiritual exercise and physical exercise.


Steven & Nathan give us 3 challenges for the week ahead in :

Read:
1. Steven gives us the Scriptures to read; 1 John 1 and 1 Timothy 4

Reflect:
2. Nathan challenges us to spend time with God to look at where we’re doing too much physical exercise and not enough spiritual exercise.

Remember:
3. Steven encourages us to remember to prioritise training for Godliness when we plan our day.

Respond:
Nathan suggests we take a moment next time we’re exercising to pause and thank God we are able to.

Mothering Sunday and chilling at home.

Church online this morning and now Scrabble with plenty of loud music. Roast - in the last half hour - in the oven,l and 2 X films ready for this afternoon.

So very blessed with the lovely family my beautiful bride is mother to - in this our 25th year of marriage, and Jo's 50th birthday.

So far a very good day :-)

@MaryMamuzich @farmerjohn

you reminded me of youth trips in somebody's transit van (not sure what the US name for that is...) with 20 youth in the back...

good times ;-)

Saw a prayer request for N Korea @sinbach on Instagram. The very next post gave me hope and a prayer focus!!

Do you ever have those days when you've been up for hours, had breakfast, chatted with the children, sorted the kitchen and cleaned up, updates two computers, made your wife two coffees, cleaned the George foreman so it looks brand new, emptied the washing machine, loaded the tumble dryer and been really busy and productive - but realise you haven't actually had a shower and are still in your dressing gown?

No? Just me?

@DevotionalTreasures

Ain't that the truth!!

Sometimes just taking a single hour at a time can help - when the world seems to want to overwhelm you!

Guys I can't give any details and I will not be posting this information on any other forum, but this week is really important to us at BTJ. we have Chinese pastors that have traveled to be together for the first time since the pandemic started last year. It is amazing to be with them and in prayer with them, but we need to plan the best way to support the church in China for this year. We do not want our own ideas, agendas, and thoughts to pollute what God has for us. Please pray for the leading and the guiding of the Holy Spirit during this time.
