It has a heart-warming story of how God reminded her that she will be taken care of in the midst of struggling with anxiety of the future. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the story:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFor a long time, fear had a stronghold on me. My mind used to go into the future and anticipate something bad may happen.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSpecifically, it had to do with abandonment that my loved ones may not be around, and I will be alone later. And often, when I was extremely anxious, God reminded me of the sparrow parable. \"Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father's care. So don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.\" (Matthew 10:29 \u0026amp; 31)\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThen this happened soon after. My husband took me to the Chiang Mai University campus for a jog when we used to live in Thailand sometime in 2018. Toward the end of our jog, we saw a sparrow on the ground. I noticed that it didn't fly away when we got closer to this little fellow. Usually, birds fly away when you get closer. It turned out that this sparrow couldn't fly because it was injured. We were concerned about leaving this little guy there on the ground since the university campus had stray dogs. There were no trees nearby where we could put the bird on a tree- only concrete buildings. So we decided to take it home and figure out what to do after.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSadly, once we got home, the sparrow crossed the rainbow bridge two hours later. Although it didn't make it, it made me think that the sparrow spent the last moment in safety at two human's house who wanted to ensure it would be in good care. Likewise, I knew that God was using this situation of a fallen sparrow to remind me not to be afraid and that He will take care of me when the future comes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"inapeace.com","offers":[{"title":"Silver","offer_id":47510447882530,"sku":"","price":124.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"14K Gold Plate","offer_id":47510447915298,"sku":"","price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/3082\/6786\/files\/sparrow-bird-necklace-355674.jpg?v=1712286564"},{"product_id":"cross-necklace","title":"Cross Necklace","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCross pendant necklace is beautifully crafted with natural gemstones-London blue topaz, ruby, amethyst\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal: 925 sterling silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable length: 16.5''+ 2'' \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCross pendant width: 10mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePendant height: 10mm \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClasp: Lobster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGreat for baptism gifts or indulging in timeless beauty as a reminder of faith\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eCross pendant necklace with three gemstones representing heaven.

Unfortunately, it didn’t indicate exactly what fish it was, but I did find out on the internet that tilapia is a well-known fish from the Sea of Galilee, where the miracle took place. Thus, I thought it would be a possibility that the miracle fish could have been tilapia. Galilee is a popular destination spot, and I imagined I would one day visit Israel and eat this local specialty. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eA few days after this, a friend who was living in Bangkok came to Chiang Mai for a visit when we were living in Thailand and stayed with us. He was studying at a culinary school, Cordon Bleu, in Bangkok. One day during his stay, he wanted to cook us dinner. He and my husband went grocery shopping for all the ingredients. After they came back, I asked him what he was making, and he replied, “Tilapia.” I thought, “What a coincidence.. haha!” because I had just learned that tilapia is well-known in Galilee. I asked him if he needed help with anything, and he asked me if I could blend mango and yogurt in the blender. I pressed the button until the mango and yogurt became a “velvety texture,” as he requested.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eThis delicious, fine-dining-looking tilapia in a beautiful presentation with mango sauce was served meticulously there. As I took a few bites, I thought, “Cordon Bleu must be a very good school. It’s delicious… I think this tilapia would go well with rice…”. I dug the tilapia with my fork and saw a piece of bread underneath the fish. Woah! It was fish and bread just like the story, not fish and rice, not fish and pasta, not fish and vegetables… but fish and bread!! Is this a coincidence? It was too exact and timely to be a coincidence just a few days after I was intently thinking about the miracle of the fish and bread.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eThe next day, I wanted to sketch a tilapia for jewelry.

Because the dish I ate was tilapia with mango sauce or ‘mango tilapia’, I know for sure that this was a nice gift from the Lord, packed with His lovely, sweet, perfect sense of humor. Well, this verse comes to my mind. Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart. (Psalms 37:4) Indeed, he did give me the desire of my heart in a humorous way because I also wanted to experience the miracle of the fish and the bread.

It was a 3-day retreat, and on the last day, I met her. We instantly bonded over talking about typical teenage topics by the beach. A group of us stayed up all night, trying to catch the sunrise on the beach just because… why not?! Then sometime after 8AM, it got bright already in the morning. Then we realized that we were facing the wrong side of the ocean for the sunrise! After the retreat, we exchanged hand-written letters as we lived in different states. Luckily, we met again at another high school church retreat about a month later. We stayed in touch through letters, phone calls, and emails, and eventually, both of our families moved to the same city a year after.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-sanitized-data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-sanitized-data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-sanitized-data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOver the many years of our friendship and in reflection, I see that God has uniquely placed Christine into my life as a blessing.

Then the following year, she visited me in Thailand from the US. My dream came true one year after! This meant a lot to me as I was going through a challenging season in my life, healing from depression and bipolar disorder.

Then the day after Christmas, sometime in the early afternoon, while I was having a cup of coffee in my yard, still thinking about the Kingdom of Heaven, I had a vision of heaven like a flash in the sky. I knew what I had seen. It was the real heaven, and it was so real. It was beautiful beyond words if there were existing expressions to describe the vivid and living colors. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe expression \"God's Glory\" would perfectly describe this holy sight. I saw 3-4 stout gold buildings made of pure gold. Gold was so pure that it was also clear. I felt the purity of the gold buildings that shone brightly, boasting of God's holiness and glory. This color of gold doesn't exist on Earth because the light came out of the gold buildings. As a matter of fact, there was so much light everywhere. I also sensed so much warmth from the Kingdom of Heaven that felt so welcoming in a way that satisfies my deep longing for comfort, like a true home. I was a bit sad that I wasn't there already. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn awe, I googled \"heaven, gold buildings\" just to see what would come up. To add to my surprise, I came across these verses from the Book of Revelations from the Bible that exactly describe what I saw. \"The city was pure gold, clear as crystal…\" (Revelations 21:18 TPT) And the glory of God is the light in heaven. \"The city has no need for the sun or moon to shine, for the glory of God is its light, and its lamp is the Lamb.\" (Revelations 21:23 TPT)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI was stunned to have this vision of heaven, and to add more to my amazement, I had never known these verses about the city of pure gold in heaven in the Bible before having this vision. I think God has a great sense of humor as He was very intentional with what He showed me, which are supported by the Bible. If He had given me a vision of something in which the information doesn't exist in the Bible, perhaps I would've doubted myself if what I saw was real. But now I know that Apostle John also saw the same thing and wrote it in the Book of Revelations. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eAlso, I recognized heaven from my memory as this place seemed familiar, like I've known heaven all my life.

When I was 7 years old, I thought to myself that it's been 7 years since I left home (heaven), and I will have to live my whole life to go back home. And this verse makes sense, \"Before I (God) formed you in the womb I knew you...\" (Jeremiah 1:5) \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003ePersonally, I was very touched by what I had seen.
