Khmer Rouge | Genocide in Cambodia | Genocide Museum Phnom Penh | Intro Documentary

What we can learn from this brutality that happened in Cambodia today? Actually, it explains a lot about how many Cambodians think today. Most of them who still have a fresh memory of what happened then or perhaps as told in their grandparents’ stories, they still have a sort of trauma looking at police officers today. Some even do not strive to be smart or skillful because of such trauma. Nonetheless, looking at the present situation of the country, we will see how it is already advancing and moving on. It is actually impressive how they have gone to their feet from zero to something today. I see a great future in Cambodia and the people are really fighting to succeed in spite of the bloody history that they have. I pray that as they heal from the brokenness in those 9 years, they will grow to be loving and forgiving and also trusting people. Their old people may have been victims of power hungry politicians but I pray that their present and future leaders will take care of them and love them as human, as his or her people. May God bless Cambodia. Blog: http://www.lanilaneocbina.online/ FB Page: https://www.facebook.com/ChibiLanilane youtube:    / @lanilaneocbina   Instagram & Tiktok: lanilaneocbina

When the Sun Stood Still

 (I know I posted this before but I have added some pictures and reposted, I hope you find this testimony a blessing to your life today, God bless you!)

WHEN THE SUN STOOD STILL

I can still remember the times when I "go" alone in many places. It used to be so weird of me to just go, whenever I hear the Lord telling me to go. I am just a tiny woman and most of the time, I carry huge pieces of luggage and find kids. God's pattern for me gradually unfolded, and these were picturesque of kids, longing for faith, hope, and love...

One day I just saw myself in Myanmar enjoying the beautiful land of the Golden Pagodas, having fun with kids while having the opportunity to serve them. These kids on the picture are some of those unprivileged living in the remotest areas of northern Myanmar. Some of them don’t go to school and most get married for as early as fourteen years of age. It was fun blending in with them while putting on thanaka paste on my face as they usually do.

Being in Myitkyina, Myanmar is not very easy for me since it was very cold but amazingly, these kids taught me, it is not that cold, you just need to get used to it.

Meeting kids is fun but being friends with their parents is also gold.

So as reaching beautiful spots!

Then I saw myself serving special kids in Northern Thailand. What a great time with these kids who have actually very unique names. I remember one kid who has an English name: “Facebook”.

 

Days in Malaysia were also some of the ones I long to do again.

Before I was able to go to the different places in Indochina, East Asia, and South Asia.  I was a very simple person longing to just serve the Lord. I remember when I went to Leyte alone some years ago, finding my way to the typhoon Haiyan victims, I was so blessed that the Lord has provided a team to work with me from the time I stepped on that land. I can still remember them today. I am just so thankful for their lives. I have faith that the Lord has been putting them in higher places now, administering fruitful ministries.

The thing that has struck me most that time was my 6-hour "God moment". I was a chance passenger for a ferry from Hilongos to Cebu and by the time I came to the port, I realized I had to wait for 6 hours to take off so I can reach the other Island. Again, I was alone. In that 6 long hours, I was recurrently asking the Lord out of tiredness from all the toil in the previous ministry. I asked Him, "why am I alone? what am I doing here? Did You really call me to do these things? " and all these funny yet valid questions aroused my longing soul, as I was just crying my heart out to Him before the heavens, the sea before my eyes with all the rats under my feet.

In my despair, I was embraced by His grace and love as He has given me this beautiful answer when the sun started to set that time..

"Can't you see my daughter, you are not alone... I am with You all along.."

And tears poured out.. Truly I am called, I am loved, I am not alone... even up to this day!

I love you my faithful Lord Jesus!

I remember when God has let the sun to "stand still" during the battle of Joshua against the enemies.."  which in Hebrew also translates to Greek root words, "when the Son stood still on the cross"....  I believe, this is the Lord, standing still as I fight my battles too. I am not alone in these battles as myself and my God are in these together.. so are you and Him..

For whatever it is that is keeping you from moving forward, I tell you, don't stop, take courage, press on! The Lord is with you, as you remain in Him!

 

"Then Joshua spoke to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel: Sun, stand still over Gibeon; and Moon, in the Valley of Aijalon. So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the people had revenge upon their enemies. Is this not written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and did not hastened to go down for about a whole day. And there has been no day like that, before it or after it, that the Lord heeded a voice of a man; for the Lord fought for Israel (Joshua 10:12-14)."

Exploring Yangon Myanmar Before COVID-19 Breakout in China- with Dad and Mama Ai

This was last year (2019), Month of December, just before the COVID-19 breakout in China happened. It would have been a great problem for us if we were trapped in Myanmar or even Thailand because of the virus, plus, my dad has COPD history so I guess that will make things worse. Nonetheless, here's my compilation of it, hope you find something useful from this even little things. God bless you!

COVID 19- Life Of A Filipino Who Cannot Go Home Because of the Pandemic (How Hard It Is..- Part 2)

I left the Philippines in January 20 and my return ticket to manila was supposed to be on March 20, which was cancelled due to Manila lockdown and later national lockdown. I did not go out for any tour but for the same work that I do for the ministry (MenschvilleKids.com). However, the Lord is forbidding me to go home because of the COVID-19 Pandemic. I must say it is very hard, so hard. I miss my family, my friends, church, and also my dogs. My cat died a few weeks ago and I was a bit devastated about it. I have to figure out how to extend visa, where do I live, how to get by, and so forth.. But I have no choice my friends, I need to live it one day at a time, like you all do today. Here I need to be extra wise for every decision, from what date to travel or transfer, and what time to go out, checking all data and news online and study them before I do the actions. The lockdown in the PH is a pain but we all need it to go through. I cannot come home because just imagining the situation there, I can say that it will be hard for me to get to Bicol or even to quezon city from naia. So I better stay here in Cambodia. Now the outbreak here is starting to get worse so we don't know where all these are going, but I know I am secured in the Lord. Whatever happens, we will trust Him.

How Hard it is to Travel Amidst Covid 19 Pandemic?
