Thanth ee Jeus..Amen.

Herbertpur is ready for the spring.I am looking forward to the season myself.March and April I suspect, will be the best seasons as yet.I haven't decided what I would like to do when the weather takes a turn for the ideal-there are a few scatter-brained ideas floating around.Hopefully I will have 'been there and done that' by the time June sets in.
Today some of the family medicine students finished off with their course ,some of them are leaving for good.They were with me for dinner yesterday.Managed to rustle up a decent enough dinner for them while we went through their thesis work.Thanks to my sister,who has a way with the ladle,each time I make my VIP movements (that's what she calls it,since I reach and leave the same day)to Delhi,she manages to put in pouches of exotic add-ons into my bag-pack which makes cooking a delight and eating mysterious and fun.
The food on my table surprises me every single day I whole-heartedly thank the lord for it..like my little nephew used to when he was three.Thanth ee Jeus..Amen.He is twenty three now!
In between juggling a hundred and one things at a time,I managed to ask one of my students who had been posted in ODC if he realised that he had actually had the oppurtunity to see one of the best physicians in India at work(Dr.KV)?There is never a time when I don't hear an exclamation followed by a voluble narration about Dr.KV's excellence the moment I mention that I was trained in ODC.It happened to me again during the short visit I made to Delhi in the corridor's of Stephen's.
I am off to Delhi again to sit through a day of directions and reflections...anyways,this is what I find myself doing most days,even while I am neck deep at work!

Image of Christ.

 There is nothing more scarier than a heart that has hardened .I was talking to Mary the other day,infact weeping with her There is a deep restlessnessness inside.Thank God for it becuase it shows that I have not resigned myself to the way things are.I was telling her I miss the deep experience of seeing the image of Christ and the compassion of the Holy spirit which just used to overwhelm  my heart when I saw the image of Christ in people ,situation and the creation. What is the image of Christ?It is a body marred and maimed to bear the sin of the world.it is a voice that did not speak in protest against God the father,who actually planned it all before the creation of the world,not against the people who maimed Him ,flogged Him,drove the nails into His hands and feet to satisfy their sinful nature.The image of Christ is a body broken  to the utmost yet given to feed the very same people .It is a love that did not count the cost. I am a person who does not put too much v...

Feet in the water.

  Fifteen days of earned leave after working for two years,I was praying in a house group prayer and worship and pleading with the Lord to show me something ,when it was not forthcoming I surrendered to the Lord and prayed let your will be done and then I saw the Lord walking up a winding road and deep in my spirit I knew He was calling me to follow Him .I did not know where to but I thanked the Lord and said yes. I have been living more in the unseen world than the seen world. Suddenly out of the blue I received a message from Dr Arpit asking me to replace them in Madhipura  for a  fortnight. I needed to go because things were getting a little intense and I needed sometime to step back and mull some things over. I had no idea why the Lord was taking me back to the old world of EHA , mission hospitals and friends from the yore. Travelling to Madhipura , I  continnued to ask the Lord, 'Why this road? I had no idea why I was going  where I was going.I am glad I ca...

Gift of Life...

  I  realise  I am a beauty junkie. Always on the lookout for the experience that brings tears of awe to your person. I guess it is all right because there is just one life to live and as would have it I would like to live it to the fullest.I  have travelled a bit and I have a whole bucket list unticked yet.Some things I call it my short life,I still cherish forever. I have had the experience to meet up and get close to exceptional people ,some of them extremely rare species who stick out from the crowd. One such friend during my early years just looked across the bench to me and said something which has stuck with me forever. Having been to Auroville in Pondicherry, one suddenly exclaimed,' There is a glass crystal in Auroville, when the sunlight falls on it  it reflects the light beautifully and it is breathtaking to say the least. You should see it.The crystal reminded me of you.'I have not seen that crystal till date but I remember the eyes of the person whe...
