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.

night-hunting.

 Monda suggested  we go  hunting. Dressed up to beat the rains and the unpredictable weather we ventured out at night with the two Dawas. Annie had baked a cake for Rumpanol.It started  pouring in spurts but nothing could beat the enthusiasm.The junior Dawa was to drive us to a place around fifteen kilometres up the north Sikkim highway.We would come across three rivulets of sort where we could possibly find the edible frog.The senior Dawa was already at the spot making a pathway in the jungle for us to proceed. We reached the spot at around eight at night.in the pitch dark one could hear the sound of frogs of all variety and we started seeing quite a few but none of edible variety.We shuffled around in the rain with an umbrella,raincoat and torches like Nancy drew exploring the grasses and having eye contacts with stunned frogs which seemed to have lost the ability to run .The two boys did a Tarzen and was lost in the jungle with a sling bag ,a torch sans any cover from the rain.While

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 came because I could r

Thank you.

 After almost five months of struggling with the nitty gritties the dialysis unit opened last week. We were able to dialyse our set of first three patients over the last few days. So much of effort,dissapointments ,struggles,joys and most importantly prayers have gone into the venture.Many who will never see the fruit of their prayers have invested their prayers into it. The day it started with many apprehension I was praying at the early morning hour and put my head on the pillow to rest and then just as I was about to sleep I saw a vision of Jesus on His knees interceding.That is how much my Lord cares for us and this morning while listening to Alistair I realised that He deals with us like a father does a five year old .That is how He sees us. Lord Jesus ,you are the crown on my head and the only thing I can take pride in.
