PRAISE GOD!
Jar came to NightLight today!!!! She didn't come to morning worship... she didn't come by lunch.., but she came! We had no way of contacting her--she does not have a phone and we did not know exactly where she was living. Thank you all for your prayers--I know that prayer requests were sent all over the world for Jar and GOD HEARD THEM!!!!!
I am sure I missed some things in the translation---but I will forward on what Annie writes at a later time.Here's what I know:The very first night that Jar went to the bars to work, she was walking up the stairs of the Nana Entertainment plaza.... a dark, wet, sticky and cold back staircase to work.... at the top of the stairs she saw a VERY TALL FIGURE, dressed all in white, holding out his hand! She just stared, she did not know if it was a ghost. But, she thought to herself, in buddhism, all the ghosts and demons are dark/black and scary. This figure had light all around and she was not scared. About a half hour later, Annie came to the bar, Jar was working at and spoke with her!!!!!!
The first encounter, I forwarded to you last week; a recap is---Jar talked with Annie that night, explained that it was her first night in the bar and her mom had cancer. She explained that her mom was dying--only had 2 weeks to live. Jar had come to the bar to get money for chemo. Annie asked her why her mom would do chemo with only 2 weeks to live and Jar explained "she is the only one I have left. When she's gone, I will have noone." Annie explained to Jar about NightLight--they talked for the rest of the time Annie was in the bar. Jar did not take a customer that night--she was spared. Jar left the bar and arrived at the hospital at 2:00AM. Her mom had died at 1:30AM that night--the night she met annie and GOD. Jar went to the drug store and bought a bottle of medicine to drink that night and follow her mother. Jar fell asleep before drinking the medicine--she had been crying---and God sent her an image of Annie's face and told her to go see Annie. Jar called Annie that afternoon and Annie met with her. Long story short, Jar and Annie talked, Jar came in to talk about working at NightLight and decided to meet us to move in with me on Sunday. Jar did not show up.
We sent out a request for intercession and this is what happened: On Sunday, Jar was mixed up on the location for NightLight church. She came to NightLight--which is a few streets away from the church site. Jar then went to Jai Samon church, that is down the street --where we have morning worship. We of course, were not their either. So, Jar asked the guards if she could just go in and sit in the sanctuary. They said sure and Jar went up to the cross and began to talk to the cross. She had no idea what to do, but she just started talking. She felt like someone came beside her and wrapped their arms around her---she leaned against them!!!! She heard a sweet voice, neither female nor male speak to her. They told her that her life has value and that she is now on the right path. To just keep walking and good things will be shown to her. She felt all of her depression and sorrows get wrapped up and thrown away! She felt light and happy! She laughed!!! She was afraid that the guards would think she was crazy! haha, welcome to the life of a Spirit filled Christian!!!!! Jar felt the Angels, saw the Angels, felt the Holy Spirit----thank you for you faithful prayers!
When she finally came in and told us this---Annie and Pon took her into the prayer room. I was at my desk and Annie comes running in "lyndsey! Jar is here and about to accept Christ!" I ran into the prayer room and see this precious girl that I had ferverntly prayed for sitting in the chair. I immediately tear up, sit down beside her and listen to her journey. Pii Pon was explaining who Christ is and explaining to Jar all of things she has felt in the last week. Sharing with Jar the realities about how God values he life so much that he sent his son and his angels to protect and guide her. JAR ACCEPTED CHRIST!!!! She knew Christ intimately already! I love God! I do! She didn't need years of feeling Jesus to be convinced. She didn't need to be good enough, or do enough good things. She acknowledge the change she felt and the warmth the Holy Spirit brought to her and she wanted Jesus now!!! I watched jar accept Christ, I saw the Holy Spirit fall on her! Selffishly, I sat and in my heart, screamed thank you Lord for allowing me to see your daughter come home!!!!!
Jar also was walking down the street and ran into an old boss of her mothers. Jar explained her situation and the boss offered Jar a free room (she has to pay electricity and water) at the hotel. Only women live there and it is safe!!! GOD HAS FULLY PROVIDED FOR HER NEEDS! Jar will start with us next week at NightLight. FOOD, SHELTER, FAMILY, FRIENDS, LOVE and a new born-again life!!!!!!!!!
OH I LOVE GOD!!!! Khap Khun Prajaew!!!! (Thank you God!) If you can't tell, my Spirit is filled and flowing over! I love this place, I love God and I never ever want to leave his presence! May you be blessed by this story and desire to know the full heart of God!
Love you
lynds
