The flood-day!!!

This whole day was a „slow motion day“... we decided to have slower day, kind of one more day off, before we get back to the every day rutine...
This afternon as we were just chillin' and Lea was sleeping...suddenly we heard something like a sound of waterfall...so I opened the door and on our tenth floor in the hallway was full of water and from the wall(where the pipes should be...) water was coming out... I ran out and closed it...(„Hero of the day moment“) and since we are on the top the water was leaking all the way down...so Keri and I started cleaning it...(Lea enjoyed watching it...although she wanted to sit into it...  )
If you wonder why would somone do such a thing...well, later the day in another building to boys were caught...age of 14...they were bored in the winter break...and went building to building and they did the same...
Intresting afternoon huh?

Important

Trying this out...

Mission Possible for GOD!!!

If you read my post on Mission impossible? Then here is a short update...GOD has opened a door for me to share with my dad...it was very intresting how the LORD did it...
I got an intresting book for Christmas(Miroslav Wolf: Exclusion and Embrace) and right there the first few sentences caught my attention...the book is on reconciliation, grace etc... and its starts with „In medias res”(1) , When he was studying GODS love and specially loving our enemies...somone asked him: Would you hug a Chetnik(2) too? Well I have to admit...that question has hit me too...I am trying to be objective(as a missionary in a place like this thats the minimum) with this whole sensitive situation...but hugging someone on any of these two sides, who comitted war crimes...is a hard question.
It broke my pride pretty bad... and I felt like I have to share this with my dad...
First he has listened, but then slowly but surely he started closing up, and not listening to what I said, so I just stopped talking and kept listening him...But then he closed and run away...I prayed after that, that the LORD would minister to his heart...Thats all I can do...
This was our ever longest converstation, and we got to the root of the problem...That he is a sinner...Please if you read this, drop a prayer or two for him...His salvation would be a great wittnes to many... :)

Run Forest run

While my sister and brother in law have visited us for Christmas...they started running again in Pecs, Hungary where they are missionaries...and well they chalenged me to go running with them this morning... for months I was not running, because I had no time, and also partly, there are not much possibilites to run arround here...no safe forest to run in, no mountains etc...and till this morning I thought our Danube river side is not a spot to run...well I have to admit..it was a beautifull morning jog. Everything was frozen(slippery too) but the peacefullnes of the riverside has really blessed me and refreshed me...
DANUBE PRIDE...When you guys come you have to see it...
So here goes my vow: „Every Christmass morning I will run...” 
Joke...
Even being so busy at least once a week I will try to go...it feels so good...and also I can it more cakes now... 

Santa is coming to town...

I saw Santa...He is in Vukovar at the time...I took this picture as he was climbing into the apartmant right accross our balcony...on the 12th floor...
SO tonight Santa is in Vukovar...

Mission impossible?

Each year I am trying to discover the point of Christmas. Some say its the cakes, some say its the food, others say its about family, or maybe the gifts...to us Christians its(or it should be) about CHRIST.
More and more it seems to me its what we make out of it. This year I want to share with my dad about „THE GIFT”, GOD has given us...
I dont know how? Or where to start...and its hard with him, because he always changes the subject when he is incomfortable...
LORD give me wisdom, LORD open and prepare his heart...
Amen.

GOD's Grace

Sometimes in ministry you are so overwhelmed, phisicly, spiritually so overruned, and on the edge of your capability of „giving out”, and you know you would need at least a good day or two off to recharge and to be able to fruitfully give out again, feed, encourege, tend, etc...
And then there is that wierd heresy trying to sneak in... and you have to deal with it...
Today on my first (partial) day off in long time, I was reading letter of a „wierd pastor” to all the churches of Croatia...
The topic was the power of vison. Off curse the guy was basicly praising the vision and raising its importance above everything...
I will quote some intresting sentences:
”Vision brings love instead of hate. Vision brings peace instead of war...”
After few pages I asked myself...where is GOD mentioned in it...? The answer was nowhere...because the Vision is god to this person.
Don’t missunderstand me, I belive in GOD using visions in our lives...I am a missionary in Vukovar because GOD gave me a clear vision...HE has just recently given me a vision for next year for our little church...but Vision without GOD is pointless...
Why was this afternoon showing me GODs grace? I had very little time to truly be refreshed...I was pretty dissapointed that I need to read something that is not building me or the church...but through reading it GOD kept reminding me of the simple Vision HE has given me, and remined me, not to worry, but simply just to stick with it...
HE by HIS grace used this time to refocus my spiritual eyes and recharge my „batteries” and showed me...”you are on the right path, just keep going with my vision” 

After blessing the kids with Christmas packages in a kindergarten on a snowy december day...

Maybe I am just to young, but very often I feel like I don’t even know what I am doing...and not just in a way that I don’t have the appropriate knowledge for the things I do, but rather like I do not see where GOD is leading my life...The moment I am in, the ministry I am doing etc..., I do not see the long term plan of it...
The good thing is, I do not even have to bother with that, just faithfully serve HIM, do
what HE brings in front of me and HIS gonna work it out for HIS glory...

IN Pécs, summer of 2004

Well, life brings up intresting questions.
Now I am mostly battling, with priorities...
1. GOD
2. Wife and Kid(s)
3. Ministry
4. everything else...

But its hard to do it... Learning to say no, and organize things...
LORD make me, mold me, change me...

I have recieved an intresting picture these days...In hungarian...but everyone will understand...picture taken in Budapest 2005.November.30.
