My 2019 in review
Parenting: Maeleth is turning 4 in February 2020. This year we witnessed as she reached so many milestones: feeding herself full meals, fully toilet trained, able to write, read, play keyboard, sing, do karate, dance ballet, swim, do addition and subtraction, pray better than before, etc.
These are all so precious. Our dear baby girl is growing so fast and we just want to hold on to all these priceless moments that we shared.
She has not gone to school yet, so we will have to be led by the Lord whether to enroll her in 2020.
Marriage: Amilee and I haven’t had much opportunity for one on one time such as date nights.
I thank God for such a godly, understanding wife who doesn’t ask for much material stuff.
I would like to pamper her more when our financial situation changes. She’s really not complained at all about our situation. I’m a blessed man.
Health: I think this year is Amilee and I’s healthiest year yet. We didn’t start off the year strong, but I think we finished stronger and in better shape than before. Praise Jesus for keeping us in good health. Believing for increasing strength, health and youth renewal in 2020 and beyond.
Work: I don’t work a job. Everyday I’m writing and writing content to post at least twice here on this Facebook page, Bible studies for our patrons and moderating posts in our “Daily Grace Inspirations” FB group.
I thank the Lord that ever since I asked for fresh revelations to write about daily since 2018, it’s been pouring in like a mighty river every day. He has never failed me once.
Since 2018 I’ve written almost 450 devotionals, a few books and submitted a Christian fiction novel to a publisher.
It gives me a great refreshing feeling inside when readers tell me that they’ve been positively impacted by the writings, and especially when they send testimonies of how a revelation shared has transformed their life.
I fondly remember one testimony where a sister in Christ experienced restoration in her marriage by resting from her self-efforts and just choosing to rest in Jesus’ finished work and His love for her.
I’m really thankful to Jesus for this precious writing gift. All glory to Him!
Finances: This is the only area I’m unsatisfied with. Throughout 2019 our savings were dwindling and we end the year much lesser than when the year started.
It feels as though my family is the children of Israel and the army of Egypt is closing in on us at the Red Sea. But I saw that God provided work for us and never let us starve.
The dwindling finances make me feel like this year was a valley year. Some days I just question myself and ask if I’m making a huge mistake and sabotaging the future of my family.
We don’t own our own home yet, the income is pathetic and our bills are huge in comparison.
But then I turned around and look at all your encouraging comments and messages telling me that you’ve been positively impacted by my work and that just keeps me going.
I know God will not fail us. He will not let His children starve or beg for bread. When the time comes, I will raise my rod and Jesus will part the Red Sea for us and make a way.
He shall surely supply all our needs abundantly according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus!
“being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.” (Philippians 1:6 WEB)
Dear brethren, I’m sure you’ve experienced your share of good days and bad days in 2019.
Some days were probably so terrible that you felt like giving up altogether.
However speaking for myself, I believe that if Jesus led me to start writing for Him and that He has been providing the flow of revelation faithfully, He will surely complete the good work and take good care of my family.
The responsibility to complete the work rests on Him, not me. I can breathe easy knowing that.
Likewise, Jesus who began a good work in you will surely complete it until the Rapture happens. What has He led you to do?
Even if it hasn’t borne much fruit yet, keep walking in that calling. Continue and don’t give up—you shall sure reap a good harvest and receive rewards for it.
Even though you sow in tears, you will reap with joy.

We Are Made Profitable By Grace
Paul’s letter to Philemon is his shortest letter (only 1 chapter) in the New Testament but contains a powerful picture of our reconciliation to God through Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection.
It wasn’t immediately obvious to me but the revelation just came.
Firstly, some background:
“Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our beloved fellow worker, to the beloved Apphia, to Archippus, our fellow soldier, and to the assembly in your house: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers, hearing of your love, and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all the saints; that the fellowship of your faith may become effective, in the knowledge of every good thing which is in us in Christ Jesus.” (Philemon 1:1-6 WEB)
Philemon’s name means “kiss” and He was a wealthy believer and a leader of the church that met in his home.
Philemon had a runaway slave called Onesimus (his name means “profitable”) who was imprisoned.
“I beg you for my child, whom I have become the father of in my chains, Onesimus, who once was useless to you, but now is useful to you and to me. I am sending him back. Therefore receive him, that is, my own heart,” (Philemon 1:10-12 WEB)
It is not explicitly written, but the probable crime that Onesimus committed is that he stole from Philemon and tried to run away but was caught and imprisoned.
In prison, Onesimus repented and became a Christian through Paul’s preaching and also turned out to be useful to Paul for ministry.
Paul wrote to Philemon to plead him to forgive and receive Onesimus back as a Christian brother, as if Philemon were receiving Paul himself instead.
“For perhaps he was therefore separated from you for a while, that you would have him forever, no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord. If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me.” (Philemon 1:15-17 WEB)
Paul also promised to repay any debts that Onesimus owed Philemon—Paul became Onesimus’ personal guarantor.
“If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me. But if he has wronged you at all, or owes you anything, put that to my account. I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides).” (Philemon 1:17-19 WEB)
Finally, Paul asked Philemon to prepare a guest room for him, hoping and expecting to be released so that he can visit Philemon.
“Also, prepare a guest room for me, for I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you.” (Philemon 1:22 WEB)
So what does this all mean?
These are who the characters in this letter represent:
Philemon is our Heavenly Father.
Onesimus is a believer.
Paul is Jesus.
Philemon is a picture of our loving and wealthy Heavenly Father. We were once like Onesimus, runaway slaves who committed crimes against Him.
We were estranged from God and far off.
We were shut up in prison, being spiritually-dead in our sins. However, while we were dead in our trespasses, we encountered Jesus and believed in Him.
As He promised, Jesus took our place to pay all our sin debts at the cross.
He even gave us His very own righteousness so that God the Father can receive us unrestrictedly as if He was receiving Jesus Himself.
Thanks to this, we who believe in Jesus became profitable children for service in contrast to our previous identity as unprofitable slaves.
Now as children of God, we are freed from the prison of death and sins.
We have been sent by Jesus to fulfill our calling to minister to others in the Lord.
Paul asking Philemon to prepare a guest room is a picture of Jesus’ resurrection from the dead and ascension back to the Father after He paid for all the sins of the world at the cross.
Can you see the beautiful picture of our salvation in this short letter?
I love it when the Holy Spirit reveals these hidden truths about Jesus to us!
Thanks to God’s Grace, we have become “Onesimus”—profitable children of God.
Let us live lives worthy of the great salvation that we have been blessed with.

Hello Youtube Family,
Today, I'm so excited to "take" you guys with me as I visit one of the schools we funded together AKA "Beauty Of Knowledge". A little while back, I shared my mission and invited you guys to help support the cause. We raised a staggering $50,000 together and was able to build 2 fully operational schools in Laos.
I had dreamt for this day for so long but it was nothing like I could ever imagine. Being able to see one of our schools in real life was just one of the most surreal things I ever experienced. I'm very pleased to announce that SaenOudom (aka Beauty Of Knowledge School) currently educates over 100 children with 4 teachers. The village is located up high in the mountains with no roads, electricity and clean water making it highly inaccessible. Now, they are learning every single day and hopefully the school will equip them with knowledge for their future. I walked into the classroom to take a peak of their daily school life and once they saw me, they stood up and said “Good morning teacher”. It was so adorable. I’ve never seen a child's eyes light up so much from a single lollipop either. I actually asked Tim today, how come the children here in Laos seem so much cuter. He didn’t take long to answer, because they just seem extra cheerful and grateful. It really is true. Some of the most joyful people really are the ones that don’t have a lot. I want you guys to see this is what YOU did. Together, we truly made a difference to the lives of these children.
I hope we don’t stop here. I hope this inspires us all to keep going and to keep giving acts of kindness. The more you give, the more you receive. Today is a day I will never forget. I want to thank all of you for supporting our schools through your kind donations and purchases of the charity hoodies/shirts. I also want to thank Kenn for being a wonderful friend and manager because if it weren’t for you- I would never had known such a wonderful organisation. You also joined me by flying all the way across the world to be here in Laos to help with construction. Of course, I have to thank the Pencils Of Promise team for being so wonderful for everything they have done so far. I see how passionate you guys are and I’m so proud. Last but not least, glory to the Lord!
Thank you once again, from the bottom of my heart for showing me what love looks like. It proves that strangers around the world can come together and do an amazing act of love. None of this would have been possible without your support. The children and I are forever grateful.
Love, YOUR FRIEND Bubz xo
