     What I got from Jesus is: Secret of not falling into temptation!
     
     There seems no secret of not falling into temptation. See how Judas fell into temptation! See how firm Peter was that he thought he would never fall into temptation! We might think that we are better than Judas, but I doubted! We should not be able to be better than Peter, right?

     See how Jesus prayed when he needed to pray like that. How many times have you prayed like that?

     What I got from Jesus now is that the closer darkest is approaching us, the closer we need to be with the Lord.  Because when Jesus comes, light comes!

     You know and understand this secret is not enough, because our body is weak.  We really have to live it out, to watch and pray! 

Dear Lord Jesus,
Lead us to know how to watch and pray that we can be as close to you as possible especially when darkness is approaching us and want to swallow us.  May your light comes in our dark hours because we are willing to be closer and closer to you.  In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

**NEW link for the 12th 100 days 24 hours prayer campaign (from December 04, 2012 to March 14, 2013)

The easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week. What you need to do is very simple. Choose one dayThe easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week to pray for me, my family and my ministry, remembering the ministry of ACiC(ACiC has two Networks: ACiC, Anglican Coalition in Canada and AI, Asian Initiative). You may use the whole hour in prayer or you can still do you work in your office but use as much time as you can to pray and the other time work prayerfully that hour to pray for our ministry. This campaign is also to teach you that you need somebody to pray for you daily. I have been prayed for hourly the past 1,200 days and I have never experienced this kind of peace and protection before. It's just beyond words can express. If I did not listen and obey to Jesus call 1,200 days ago to start this prayer movement, I think I would be pulled into darkness and discouragement already! I deeply believe that this is a way to draw as many participation as we can in prayers. I encourage you to participate. We need you to join us! Trust in the power of prayers!
