The Lord is saying.   For I have said I have good plans for you and yet at this time it is hard to comprehend. Nevertheless my plans will not fall to the ground. Pick your spirits up and look forward and contemplate this ....that you will succeed at that which you are undertaking, do not down tools but get to work and push through the discouragement and the depression that is trying to set in.

Adventures in India

....Sunday 13th December 09

Yes today was very hot and busy. After the Sunday school service, we walked round the little village on the island of banana fields.

This was one of my favourite places. Everyone was so friendly. One lady came and told us that she had been healed when we prayed for her last week.

This little boy is showing us a ratcatcher. It seems they make a few rupees catching rats with these contraptions.

Here's Gudrun on the ferry back just a few seconds before she had a very bad fall coming off the ferry. She nearly fell in the water. Her bag went in the water but nothing fell out. Her camera and everything was saved. This fall really shook us all, She seemed to recover ok, she had hurt herself in a few places but no broken bones. It was the first of three shocks I had that day.

Brother Raju took us to his church and we celebrated Christmas again with a cake. The people threw petals on us and put garlands round our necks.

My second shock of the day.... while these photo's were being taken I was over at the car. In the field behind the boys in this photo, a man had caught a wild pig. I had never heard a noise as terrible as this pig squealing for its life. The native people could not understand my distress. They were more interested in me and my suffering than the pig's dilemma. This was a terrible experience for me. I could hardly bear it as they tied this pig up and carried it off upside down. Brother Raju told me they were just taking it to somewhere safe, but I'm not sure he wasn't just saying that to pacify me.

Inspirational Moments

Psalm 117 is the shortest chapter in the Bible.
Psalm 119 is the longest.
Psalm 118 is at the center of the Bible. There are 594 chapters in the Bible before Psalm 118, and 594 chapters after Psalm 118 - 1,188 chapters.
This number can be split 118-8, or Psalm 118:8.

Now we know that the chapter divisions in the Bible are not part of original Scripture, but isn't it interesting how this little word exercise worked out? Or was God in the center of it all? And if He was, shouldn't the center verse of the Bible contain its central theme? It does: "It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man." In Psalm 118 the Psalmist recalls seven reasons why God is worthy to be trusted:

"I called upon the Lord in distress: the Lord answered me, and set me in a large place(v 5).
"The Lord is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?"(v 6).
"The Lord taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me"(v 7).
" I shall not die, but live,and declare the works of the Lord"(v 17 )
"The Lord hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death"(v 18 ).
"This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it"(v 24 ).
"Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever"(v 29 ).

Just Joking...

After the christening of his baby brother in church, little Johnny sobbed all the way home in the back seat of the car. His father asked him three times what was wrong.
Finally, the boy replied, “That priest said he wanted us brought up in a Christian home, and I want to stay with you guys!”

Written Agreement on the covenantal promises for our children ......

.Notes concerning the promises

Prescription: -

God's word to be spoken orally three times a day. Then once a day as preventative measure. If symptoms worsen - double the dose. Note:- There are no harmful side effects.

Andrew Wommack does a wonderful teaching on Spirit Soul and body. Effortless change is what happens when we understand who we really are.
