This is Justin








Below it's an email from Justin's mother, Angela. Don't you just love what God is doing? God is so good! He is faithful in Austen's life too!

Dear Pastor Jack,

Thank you for your prayer. Justin is doing very good. He took off the cast on Tuesday. He is very happy. He knows God answer our praying. Justin needs to took X-ray every months to check his left hip (the bone was very thin and fracture caused by a tumor).

The first two month all X-rays shows "not worse" "no change", Dr. could not say "better" to Justin. Even the Dr. didn't know when the cast could take off. Thanks Lord.

This month Justin's bone grow "very good". The bone growth, first outside need to have new bone covered then inside growth. Justin all did this time. Praise Lord! Glory to God!Now, Justin need to use crutches for one month. Then we are waiting for the next X-ray on March 02. We hope Justin can walk normally again at that time. We will continue pray.Thank you again for those brothers and sisters who pray for us. Please see attach pictures.

Lamaze Class

Unspeakable joy has come upon me today! God is so good. Jesus rocks!

I felt the spirit of joy all over me today although I didn't get to sleep much last night. I feel all your prayers, which have been very effective to Annie and I. I woke up today and decided not to let the devil rob my joy and peace away from me. That's not right to allow the devil stealing my joy, peace and happiness in my (our) life! This has to stop! I am putting on the hat of joy and the garment of praise from now on! This is God's fashion for me, Annie and Austen!

Went to Lamaze class tonight, we watched a clip about the Cesarean Section (C-section). Then I whispered to Annie, I told her that no matter what happens to Austen, we will still have each other. Austen is a only gift from the Lord, and we are called to parent him and walk with him in life. The Lord gives and the Lord takes away, the name of the Lord shall be praised! No hard feeling toward each other or toward God.

All the sudden, I got a call from Ruth (my Korean mother's daughter) from Sacramento. My spiritual mother wanted to call me but she can't speak any English. Korean spiritual mom prayed with Ruth yesterday and here is what Ruth told me tonight.

My spiritual mom says, in my open vision I see the child is the work of God. He is called to be great, mighty in the Lord. (hmm...she doesn't know what we name the boy yet as I am writing it) God wants you to stand firm and you ought to pray for your son with the healing anointing God gives you. This is a breakthrough for you and your ministry. This is God's test for you; He is going to take you to the next level when you pass it. The whole church will receive the breakthrough in healing and miracles as you receive it. More healing will happen at your church. You and your church will see God's glory. Don't think too little of yourself. Stand firm. I am praying for you and your son everyday. Shout Hallelujah, you will overcome.

I think that's all she said to me tonight. I told Ruth about the meaning of the name Austen Javelin Lee, so that she can tell my Korean mother. He is called the great spear of Yahshua (Jesus). I was full of joy when Ruth prayed for me; on the other side of the line, Ruth was feeling a strong presence of the Lord, she said.
I looked up the sky...there were many stars, I saw a really bright one; then I called myself the father of nations.

I decide to take back my joy, peace and happiness from the devil. You, the devil, has no right to mess with us because Austen, Annie and myself belong to Jesus!

I miss my Korean spiritual mother.

Spirit of the Lord

"The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters." (Gen. 1:2)

Yes...the Spirit of God is hovering over Austen Javelin Lee. God's power and love incubate over Austen now. Amen.

For the past few days I wept just like Mary and Martha; when their brother Lazarus died, they came to Jesus thinking that Jesus "could have" come earlier and done something before their brother's death. Annie and I have hugged each other and wept when we pray. I have come to realize that God calls me an overcomer for a reason. God calls me an overcomer to lift up His name! He puts me through fire and water to toughen me up for greater challenges, I believe.

More I think about all these prophetic words from different people, more I become to appreciate what God is doing in my life. From the world's point of view, my life kindda sucks; but from God's point of view, I am great. So will be Austen (and his brothers and sisters).

"As for me and my family will serve the Lord." I kept praying over this when I was worshiping this past Sunday. Annie, myself and our children will serve God no matter what happens in our life. I was kneeling, weeping and praying before the Lord, and all the sudden I felt this warm electricity and numbness going through my hands and arms. It just got stronger and thicker; something I never felt before, eventually my arms, hands and fingers froze and twisted. I couldn't move my arms, hands or fingers at all; more I prayed "as for me and my family will serve the Lord", more electricity came upon my hands. I knew that God was ministering to me, maybe it was angels or maybe it was Jesus Himself. God was holding my hands in such a trial like this. He loves me so much.

"I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear, But now my eye sees You." (Job 42:5)

I not only wanna know about You, I want to know You.

Chinese New Year

I wept for two days...after the ultra sound report. I didn't want to get up from my bed; I felt like a nightmare coming at me and I couldn't wake up. I just don't know how to pray then. God is good, I know. But I didn't feel His goodness at that moment. I didn't ask WHY, I believe that He is in total control; I just refused to believe that negative report. With helplessness and pity, I stand silent before Him; I want to believe miracles, but I want it now.

Now I need prayer more than ever. This is probably the weakest moment in my life. God is always bigger than Satan's afflictions.

God shows up again without any delay!







This is Justin... Pray for him that God heals Justin's cancer, Langerhans' Cell Histiocytosis(LCH).
What's LCH? Click this link...
for English
for Chinese
When the Holy Spirit said, keep worshiping after our 1 hour and 15 min worship, I felt the warmth and electricity all over my right hand like what I felt in Lakeland, Florida.
Many felt the same electricity/numbness all over the hands and bodies. That happened today during worship! He is so good. Ya, God!
God so loves us and He wants to touch us with His mercy and power! Know that I will hug our little Beanie similar way God hugs us.

week 28 - Little Beanie



I think I am getting ready to take care of a baby now. I am gonna be a good father; that's my prayer for life. Well...just look at the picture and know that I am prepared. Little Beanie opens and closes eyes now in mommy's womb. Wow...what's that like, huh baby?
I love you, Little Beanie.

oh...little beanie


Little Beanie can open and close his/her eyes now, he is also sucking his fingers; the book says that mom can feel his/her hiccups now and then. Little Beanie has been kicking very often lately. I enjoy watching your movement, 'lil Beanie! :)
The book says...
This week, your baby weighs almost 2 pounds (like a head of cauliflower) and is about 14 1/2 inches long with her legs extended. She's sleeping and waking at regular intervals, opening and closing her eyes, and perhaps even sucking her fingers. With more brain tissue developing, your baby's brain is very active now. While her lungs are still immature, they would be capable of functioning — with a lot of medical help — if she were born now. Chalk up any tiny rhythmic movements you may be feeling to a case of baby hiccups, which may be common from now on. Each episode usually lasts only a few moments, and they don't bother her, so just relax and enjoy the tickle.
