He will come like the winter rains,like the spring rains that waters the earth......

Today the church was a rich experience and the presence of the spirit of God talking to us and affirming.
There was not much words but a lot of pictures ,pictures of spring in full glory.
'Spring is a time of growth'
Hosea 6:3 was quoted-
''Let us acknowledge the Lord;Let us press on to acknowledge Him.
As surely as the sun rises,He will appear;He will come like the winter rains,
like the spring rains that waters the earth.''
As the worship continued and there were paintings from Jesus' time on earth on the screen above fleeting through.
There was one of the samaritan woman talking to Jesus by the well.there was another of Mary washing Jesus' feet,there was one of the Lord's supper in the upper room,but there was one particular painting that strangely drew me ,it was a shadow painting of Jesus on the road walking with some other men talking to them,in spirit I interpreted it as the walk through the road to Emmaus.
As the service progressed,the pastor called out to the congregation to talk to the Lord about the painting that we had been drawn to.
It was an amazing experience to know that the Lord was with us in this uncertain and indecisive road,sometimes we fail to recognise Him.'For the disciples ,on the road to Emmaus when everything seemed to be apparently falling apart,how comforting it was to have Jesus come and talk to them...they do recognise it in the retrospect.
'He will come like the winter rains,like the spring rains that water the earth' on our walk through the road to Emmaus and the road to the cross.
Here were two songs we sang in the course of preaching .
1)The Lord is my shepherd......there was one verse in particular which deeply spoke to me and it was..'I will trust in Him alone...'Yes I will trust in Him alone because only He knows best what He wants me to do.
2)To added affliction ,He offers more grace and out of His infinite mercy in Jesus,He giveth and giveth and giveth again.
Praise God for my Redeemer who never fails to lead me.

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...

Thankyou Lord for the year that was.

 It has been sometime since I have blogged. I don't even remember how the whole of last year passed. While sitting for the prayer meeting with the ladies I suddenly realised that the last year I had broken so many barriers. Things I had cried to the Lord in prayer had come to pass quietly but surely. It has not been without drama but it was through sheer resolve and daily consecratiom  I walked the steps I never thought I could. I learnt to drive for one and then towards the last week had the distinction of breaking the panes of the car while backing. It hit the wall. Thank-fully no one was hurt. My wonderful family just said ,'It Happens'. This year I adopted a male pig and a female pig .I sold the last year's pig for fourteen grands and five hundred.I  brought some brick to try and build an apartment but since the leading from the Lord was not to invest I invested the money in my eternal home I thank God for that. Towards the year end I got the privellage to help Kanc...
