God Praying Soilders (GPS)

Let these be the prayer of our heart and our people.

Lord we need Your grace and mercy,
We need to pray like never before,
We need the power of Your Holy Spirit,
To Open Heaven's door.

Spirit, touch Your Church, stir the hearts of men,
Revive us Lord, with Your passion once again,
I want to care for others like Jesus cares for me,
Let Your rain fall upon me.

Lord, we humbly come before You,
We don't deserve of You what we ask,
But we yearn to see Your glory,
Restore this dying land.

I want to care for others like Jesus cares for me,
Let Your rain fall on me.

Food for thought

Genesis 1: 27 "So God created man in his image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he creatd them." Each one of us is created by God in His image including the Autistic Child.

Just to share that recently the National Autism Society of Malaysia (NASOM) started its centre in the East Coast in Kuantan Pahang.

They are located at:

631, Lorong Selamat 21, 25050, Kuantan.

Any one of us who are interested to offer our service to these group of children are most welcome.

Just to share some of the characteristics of Autism:

1. One sided conversation.

2. Does nto show interest.

3. Repeat things.

4. No pretend play.

5. Does things like flapping hands.

6. Laughs or giggles in appropriately.

7. Enjoy spinning things.

8. No eye contacts.

9. Hate changes.

10. Talk over and over about the same things.

11. Does not play with others.

12. Joins in only if adult insists and assists.

13.Shows needs by using an adult's hand.

So do be patience if your child show some of the characteristics of Austism as it is what God has created them special as they are.

As Psalm 127: 3 "Sons are a heritage from the Lord. children a reward from him" So love them for who they are and for they are from the Creator.
