Abraham was called "father of the faithful" and "friend of God" in spite of his failures from the very get go. What a comfort for all children of God! For even though we fail as miserable as Abraham, we are children of God because we believed God as Abraham did! Praise the Lord!
I'm resuming blogging after almost a year of silence. It was a tough year but fruitful for my relationship with the Lord. We are waiting and praying for the promised outpouring of the Spirit here in Cluj. As time goes I will bring the blog up to date concerning the ministry. For now I content myself to ask you, please pray with us for this revival in Cluj.

It seems that I skipped the whole month of December and no wonder! It was a very busy and exhausting month, with a lot of events. As we started to remodel the house to turn it into a lounge for students, the landlady came with the news that she might kick us out from there, based upon whether or not she will find a place for her business. We'll find this out at the end of February. We went on with the remodeling in spite of this, and except a few details that still need to be taken care of we're done. We turned the attic into a room for the children's ministry and the downstairs into a nice lounge. Meanwhile Satan had our team under heavily attack, but the Lord used that at least in my life to teach me the most valuable lesson in leadership. Jesus told the disciples that whoever wants to be first should be last and whoever wants to be in leadership should be the servants of all. Up until last month I believed that Jesus is calling us to a sacrifice in doing that. But the Lord had me convinced that these are actually attitudes that provide us with the greatest authority on the face of the earth. Jesus was not demanding sacrifices in order to grant positions, but rather He was giving us awesome tips on genuine and functional leadership. Thank You Lord for this lesson!
