How is your walk?

These are my favorite Bible verses for reminder/note so that I can check from anywhere.
これはわたしの好きな聖句達です。覚え書きのつもりで書きました。職場や出先からもチェックできるしね！

And I am thinking to change my blog career. I will let you all know, when I do that.
ブログを別のとこに変えようかと考え中です。変えたらみんなにお知らせします。


ローマの信徒への手紙／Romans　12:2
　
この世と調子を合わせてはいけません。いや、むしろ、神のみこころは何か、すなわち、何が良いことで、神に受け入れられ、完全であるのかをわきまえ知るために、
心の一新によって自分を変えなさい。
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.


エレミヤ書／Jeremiah　29:11-14
　
11 わたしは、あなたたちのために立てた計画をよく心に留めている、と主は言われる。それは平和の計画であって、災いの計画ではない。将来と希望を与えるものである。 12 そのとき、あなたたちがわたしを呼び、来てわたしに祈り求めるなら、わたしは聞く。
13 わたしを尋ね求めるならば見いだし、心を尽くしてわたしを求めるなら、
14 わたしに出会うであろう、と主は言われる。
11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
12 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.
13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you," declares the LORD.


箴言／Proverbs　3:5,6

5 心を尽くして主に信頼し、自分の分別には頼らず
6 常に主を覚えてあなたの道を歩け。そうすれば主はあなたの道筋をまっすぐにしてくださる。
5　Trust in the LORD with all your heart　and lean not on your own understanding;
6　in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.


詩篇 ／Psalm 　46:1

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
神はわたしたちの避けどころ、わたしたちの砦。苦難のとき、必ずそこにいまして助けてくださる。

Last Monday was the Day of Canadian Thanksgiving
American's in November, I forgot which day it is.

Well, Joel's parents are visiting(they are Canadians), so they hosted the Thanksgiving party with delicious feast.
I actually had their Thanksgiving dinner 3 years ago in Ontario, Canada.
In 2003, I was studying English in Vancouver, Canada.
And I took 10 days vacation to travel east side of Canada.
So I visited Jon's parents and traveled to Quebec and Montreal by myself.
That was really fun trip...

Anyways, the day after the Thanksgiving Day, Jon's parents took me to Niagara Falls which was really beautiful, and we visited to Joel's home.
They ware going to have one day late Thanksgiving dinner. That was great feast just like last Monday.

That is way we didn't have a Cell group this week. But Akko and Ben already translated first lesson of "Red book" so, I am sooo looking forward for this coming Monday!
So, please pray folks! for our first Cell group with actual lesson.

From last night, we started cell group. members are Ben, Joel(missionaries), 2 Christian girls and 2 non-Christian guys. We had dinner(Joel made for us), icebreaker, praise and made plans for this month. We are already friends, but I am sure we will be better friends through this cell group. I am SOOO excited. And each one of us got the Bilingual Bibles from churches in the States and some people in there. I was so happy for the Bible, it is latest Japanese version and NIV. So that we can check from same Bible.

I was impressed by Payap cell group so I am glad to start ours even though it is small group. I am looking forward to listen to people's opinion and grow in Jesus more. We are going to use "Red book" from Chiangmai, take turns to translate into Japanese. It will be a little hard, but good to learn from heart language.

I can feel that God is doing something through this great opportunity. I am excited to see God's work.

It has been 10 days since I came back from Chiang Mai, Thailand. How time flies!

I went there for the mission trip with 6 Ibaraki Christian University students, Gae (Thai, missionary intern at Omika Ibaraki.), Jun and Mio Uzawa (preacher at Omika and his wife). And I was the only one who went from Sendai (1 hour flight from Tokyo).

I first heard about this trip from Judith who is a missionary from Hitachi-taga Church, because she knew I am interested in some mission work. She was thinking to go, but she decided not to. So I was wondering whether I should go or not. Because I didn't know much about people from Ibaraki and I am not good at meeting people at first. And I thought I am not able to get 2 weeks off from my work, but I asked my boss and he said "I cannot say no, it will be a little tough without you, because we have fewer workers but I think we can cover it, so why don't you go ahead and get ticket!?" He said that because I said I was wondering if I should get plane ticket. Then I decided to join Japanese mission team.

It was SUPER great 10 days I will never forget about this trip. I loved Thai people, food and culture.(I don't know much yet, though.) I want to learn more. Our Japanese team built great friendship and teamwork. They are all amazing.　And I of course loved Thai people at Christian zone they are faithful and love God very much, I could feel it. That was really encouraging to me. We got lecture/lesson from P'Robert, P'Shaun, P'David (missionaries who work there.). I need to apply what I learned to my daily life. And we stayed at Baw Gaew Church up in the mountain, people at the Church were kind and nice. We visited elementary school near the Church, taught, played games and sang some songs. I think kids had fun and so did we. Even though we cannot communicate with languages, we can have fun together with our hearts. I think that is great. Next morning at Baw Gaew , it was very nice and cool weather, so I had good quiet time just by myself to read and pray outside. I really thanked God for this opportunity, because I cannot have so much time just spending time with God in Japan. After the Devo, I was crying alone didn't know why. Maybe I was thinking that totally God did BRING me there and MAKE me think about many things deeply.　And I was scared because I felt His plan is sooo BIG that I can not imagine.

The most important work we did is "reach out". We almost every day went to eat at cafeteria in Payap University so that we can talk to students to come to cell group and Japanese party we had. Like I said, I am not good at meeting people, so that was hard to do at first. But I started to get used to it. I felt that on the DAY we were supposed to leave. I found it is fun to talk to students and build relationship with them. God always used me and took me to show his light to people. Two groups I went and talked to were both Japanese department studens not so many students studying Japanese. God helped me to have conversation with them easier. And some of studens actually CAME to the zone for the Japanese Party! That was blessing. Well, so I was sad that we had to leave, if we were living there we could keep in touch with them.

Anyways....

We did so many things we could never experience in Japan. This trip is my treasure

I hope to see everyone soon...

昨日公開初日に見てきました！
最高でした。そう言うと安っぽくなるかもしれないけど。
今まで原作を読んだことがなかったので、映画見てから読んでみようかと思ってて、先に映画を見ました。

なんといってもストーリーが素晴らしい！子供達もすごいかわいいかった　C.S.ルイスはクリスチャン作家なので、ナルニアには聖書的な内容がすごく入っていました。ネタばれになるので詳しくは言いませんが、分かる方は分かると思うけど。

パッションのように直接的ではないんだけど、だからかえって私にはリアルにっていうか、イエス様の事とすごい重なって涙が止まりませんでした。(見てない人分からないよね、ごめんなさい)日本でそのこと知っている人どれくらいいるのかな？と思ったりもして。

レイトショーで見て、１２時くらいに帰ってきて、ルームメイトのmonさんに「すごくよかったよ」と言おうと思ったけど、話そうとしたらまた涙が。。。

あと何回見に行こうかな〜。絶対また行きます！一緒に行きたい人いたら行きましょ〜！大歓迎です

英語版を読もうとしましたが、昔のイギリス英語だからか、チョット難しいです。最初に日本語で読むことにしようかな。。。

YAキャンプ終わってしまいました。

みんなで力を合わせて作り上げてきましたが、その割には３日ですぐ終わってしまうのよね。

でもほんとに充実した、濃い３日間でした。
本当に久しぶりに友達に会って、初対面の人もいっぱいいて。最初は緊張もしたけど楽しかった〜！！ほんとに愛に満ちた時間でした。今回は事前にmixiで知ってる人が結構いて、なんだか面白かった。知らない感じがしなかったYo。久しぶりに多くの同世代クリスチャンに触れ合って、感動しました。

昨日は帰ってから文字通り泥のように眠りました。しかし切ないね〜。早く来年にならないかな

みなさん、例のジョンのページに写真を載せましょう！
