languages, and he wanted to be able to support his parents as they grew older. He knew that decent money could be made in the hotel industry, so he decided to major in Hotel &amp; Hospitality. As part of his degree, he went to study in Japan for a year. At first, Joe was excited about living in another country. But shortly after arriving in Japan, everything fell apart.<\/p><p>Joe could not adjust to the lifestyle there. Everything was so ordered, people seemed so uptight, compared to the more carefree, easygoing ways that he was used to. And the workload was so heavy! How could he ever manage to pass all his classes, with so much to learn? He was up late studying, but then had to get up early for class. He had hardly any time for friends. He felt lonelier and lonelier, and he became more and more depressed. Joe forced himself to keep smiling, but his heart was filled with unhappiness and despair.<\/p><p>One day, Joe\u2019s teacher returned a major project, and Joe saw that he had not passed. He would fail this class, and probably some other ones, too.<br \/>After class, Joe went to a bench in the school\u2019s common area, where he called a friend, speaking in English as their common language. \u201cI just want to die. I\u2019m failing at everything and wasting my parents\u2019 money. I just can\u2019t do this anymore. I\u2019ve been thinking about killing myself,\u201d he told his friend.<br \/>\u201cJoe, please find a counselor,\u201d his friend pleaded.<\/p><p>When Joe ended the call, he looked up and saw a woman with a kind face looking at him with concern. \u201cDid you say \u2018counselor\u2019?\u201d the woman asked in English. \u201cI am a counselor. Would you like to meet?\u201d<\/p><p>Joe began meeting with Jean, a Singaporean Christian counselor, who just happened to be in Japan on a short-term missions trip, and who \u201cjust happened\u201d to be in the common area when Joe called his friend.<\/p><p>After several counseling sessions, Joe began praying and reading the Bible. One day, he asked God for a sign, and the word \u201cstar\u201d was impressed upon him. Later that very day, the counselor brought up the word \u201cstar\u201d in their counseling session.<\/p><p>Not long after, Joe put his faith in Jesus Christ. A smile of true joy was put in his heart.<\/p><p>Joe did not finish his studies in Japan, but when he returned to Thailand, he met some student ministry workers at his university, and he now regularly attends cell group, growing in his faith.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a89560e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a89560e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1355\" height=\"1157\" src=\"https:\/\/thailand-prayer.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/footer9b.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-361\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thailand-prayer.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/footer9b.jpg 1355w, https:\/\/thailand-prayer.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/footer9b-300x256.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thailand-prayer.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/footer9b-1024x874.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thailand-prayer.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/footer9b-768x656.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1355px) 100vw, 1355px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4c3b802 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"4c3b802\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8de814d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8de814d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"354\" height=\"109\" src=\"https:\/\/thailand-prayer.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/prayerpoints9.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-356\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thailand-prayer.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/prayerpoints9.jpg 354w, https:\/\/thailand-prayer.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/prayerpoints9-300x92.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 354px) 100vw, 354px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1df7d93 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1df7d93\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a8dbef4 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"a8dbef4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0a236e1 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0a236e1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Pray for Thai students of all levels (high school, university, and postgraduate) who go to study in other countries.
