『Video』God will make a way



Song Story: God Will Make A Way
From: Don Moen


Late one evening, Don Moen received a phone call with devastating news: his wife’s sister had lost her oldest son in an automobile accident. Craig and Susan Phelps and their four sons were traveling through Texas on their way to Colorado when their van was struck broadside by an eighteen-wheeler truck. All four boys were thrown from the van.


Craig and Susan located their sons by their cries, one boy was lying in the ditch, another in an area wet from melted snow. Nearby was his brother who landed by a telephone pole. All were seriously injured, but when Craig, a medical doctor, reached Jeremy, he found him lying by a fence post with his neck broken. There was nothing Craig could do to revive him.


When Don received the news of this tragedy a few hours later, he recalls, My whole world came to a standstill, but I had to get on a plane the next morning and fly to a recording session that had been scheduled for several weeks. Although I knew Craig and Susan were hurting, I couldn’t be with them until the day before the funeral.


During the flight the morning after the accident, God gave me a song for them: God will make a way where there seems to be no way. He works in ways we cannot see. He will make a way for me. The song was based upon Isaiah 43:19 NASB Behold, I will do something new, now it will spring forth; will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.


This song would bring comfort to Craig and Susan when all hope seemed lost. It touched the hurt in their hearts with hope and encouragement. Don received a letter from Susan in which she quoted Isaiah 43:4 NASB: Since you are precious in My sight, since you are honored and I love you, I will give other men in your place and other peoples in exchange for your life.


Susan wrote, We’ve seen the truth of the scripture. When Jeremy’s friends learned that he had accepted Jesus into his life before he died, many of them began to ask their own parents how they could be assured of going to heaven when they died. The accident also prompted Craig and Susan into a deeper walk with the Lord as well as into new avenues of ministry. Craig began teaching Sunday school at their church and Susan became active in Women’s Aglow, sharing with various groups her story and the Lord’s provision in her time of sorrow.


She has since said, “The day of the accident, when I got out of the van, even before I knew our son was dead, I knew I had a choice. I could be bitter and angry or I could totally accept God and whatever He had for us. I had to make the decision fast. I’ve seen fruit come as a result of that choice. If I had to, I’d do it again. It’s worth knowing others will go to heaven because of what happened to Jeremy. God really did make a way for us!”

Are you a reader?



What power of reading is it? That quotes are shown as below:

“Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.” — Margaret Fuller
“We shouldn’t teach great books; we should teach a love of reading.” — B. F. Skinner
“You don’t have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them.” — Ray Bradbury

We must treat the reading as a natural extension of the own learning power because all about recognizing the human "voice" on another people's mind, their own stories and etc through the reading.

If you got the own children, you should try to spend the time reading to your children at bedtime. At that time, the children are more relaxed, reflective, and open to this form of communication.Most important, though, said Zuckerman, is that reading aloud is a period of shared attention and emotion between parent and child. This reinforces reading as a pleasurable activity.
"Children ultimately learn to love books because they are sharing it with someone they love," he said. The research is published in the journal Archives of Disease in Childhood.

At last, i hope that you are not only a reader, but also is Happy Reader.

When "Happy Reading" become a habit, "Reading" will become a living.
When "Happy Reading" become a habit, "Reading" will be a pleasure.
When "Happy Reading" become a habit, "Reading" will no longer need to call.

You have 2 choices


"Life is always all about the choices.
 When you cut away all the junk every situation is a choice.

You choose how you react to situations.
You choose how people will affect your mood.
You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood.
It's your choice how you live your life."




 ============================  I'm a loving separator  ==========================

Jonathan is the manager of a restaurant. He is always in a good mood.
When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply:
"If i were any better, i would be twins."


Many of the waiters at his restaurant quite their jobs when he changed the jobs,
so they could follow him around from restaurant to restaurant.

Why?Because he was a natural motivator.
If an employee was having a bad day, Jonathan was always be there, 
telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.

Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day i went up to Jonathan and asked him:
"I don't get it! No one can be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?"

Jonathan replied,
 "Each morning i wake up and i say to myself, i have 2 choices today.
 I can choose to be in a good mood or i can choose to be in a bad mood.

Each time something bad happens, i can choose to be victim or i can choose to learn from it.
I always choose to learn from it.

Every time someone come to me complaining,
 I can choose to accept their complaining or i can point out the positive side of life.
I always choose choose the positive side of life."

"But it's not always that easy," i protested.
"Yes, it is," Jonathan said.

Several years later, I heard that Jonathan accidentally did something you are never supposed to do in the restaurant. He left the back door of his restaurant open.

In the morning, he was robbed by three armed men.
While Jonathan trying to open the safety box, his hand shaking from nervousness, slipped off the combination. The robbers panicked and shot him.

Luckily, Jonathan was found quickly and rushed to hospital. 
After 18 hours surgery and weeks of intensive care, Jonathan was released from the hospital with fragments of the bullets still in his body...

I saw Jonathan about six month later after the accident.
When I asked him how he was, he replied, "If I were any better, I'd be twins. Want to see my scars?"
I declined to see his wounds, but did ask him what had gone through his mind as the robbery took place.

"The first thing that went through my mind was that I should have locked the back door. Then, after they shot me, as i lay on the flood, I remembered that I have 2 choose: I could choose to live or choose to die. I choose to live," Jonathan replied.

"Weren't you scared," I asked.
Jonathan continue, "The paramedics were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the Emergency Room and i saw the expression on the faces of doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I read "He's a dead man." I knew  i needed to take action."

"What did you do," I asked.
"Well, there was a big nurse shouting questions at me. She asked if I was allergic to anything." Jonathan said.

"Yes, I replied.  The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited to my reply.
 I took a big breath and yelled,"Bullets!"

Over their laughter, 
I told them, ' I am choose to live. Please operate on me as If I am alive, not dead.' "


Jonathan lived and thanks to skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude.
I learned from him that everyday you have the choice to either enjoy your life or to hate it.

The only thing that is truly yours, that no one can control or take from you -- is YOUR ATTITUDE!!
So, if you can take care of that, everything else in life becomes much easier.


OK!! Now you have 2 choose to Make:
  1. Leave the message after read it
  2. Sharing it to someone you care about.
I hope you will choose #2  !!   =)
