I love you Mom!

12th of August not just another day for Thailand. It's Queen's Birthday as well as mother's day. So most of the Thais will take this time today just loving their mommy, spend time with her and bless her for year ahead. Also to celebrate Birthday to the Queen. "Long live the Queen!!!" kind of thing...

Talk about my Mom and I, it has been a long journey. Many people would not understand how hard it was for me to have a mom that not quite normal as other moms out there. My mom has suffered from some sort of mental illness which make her behaviour really weird and sometime hard to handle with. Her world is just what she's seen in the past, those memory that she hold it dear and never let go as the time go on. She only believe in what she saw...can you imagine? Even my dad has passed away formany good years...until today she still don't believe it! Instead, she took it as my dad has left us.....of course it's quite true...yeah in the sense he left us....forever from the face of the earth....

Now I have to tell you this....She has been like this since I was born....(I guess even long before I was born) So to grow in this kind of relationship that I have with my mom was really hard. I couldn't know how to handle her, how to show her I love her and care for her. Instead, I felt so irritated, disturbed bu her behaviour, worse of the worse I felt so ashame of having a mom like this. Sad to say but it's true...

Now I'm 25 year of age. I've been grown...a changed man...My papa God had dealed with all this issues in my life....now I learned to love her no matter what...I forgave her for what she's done to me in the past and I asked her for forgiveness. Even as I type this thing I'm thinking to myself, God is so good....though the enemy tried to destroy me via my family but it didn't work! My God has protected me all these years...He shapes my character to be strong, be patient and loving no matter what...My God is indeed so good. Though I live in the foreign land, far away from home. But my love will go beyond all the boundaries and reach to my mom's heart. I can't wait to see her once again..really...

I love you Mom....
Happy Mother's day everyone....

Well with my soul

Well with my soul
Brenton Brown/H.G. Spafford/Daniel Ornellas

Sometimes it's hard, sometimes i cry
Sometimes my heart wants to know why?
But your yoke is easy and your burden is light
And though my heart is aching and there're tears in my eyes

Whatever my lot, you have taught me to know
It is well, it is well with my soul

it's not always easy, i'm not always right
sometimes i do things that are wrong in your sight
but i have decided i'm going to follow jesus
and there's no turning back, there's no turning back

Whatever my lot, you have taught me to know
It is well, it is well with my soul

You have reached down to me, you have rescued me
and have shed your blood for my soul
And i live now knowing that the sky and not the grave will be my goal
And just as in life, also in death this truth will comfort and console
that soon i will see your face and hear your voice and know that it is well. . .

Whatever my lot, you have taught me to know
It is well, it is well with my soul

But please hold my hand Lord and hold on tight
'Cause the road here is narrow...
