Tho He slay me...

Winter  Flowers

My  dear  friends  thank  you  for  sending  us   good  wishes  and  assurances   of  prayer.

That  has  kept  our  spirits,  faith

and  physical  reserves  up in  these  past  few   days.

Apart  from  knee  exercises Mama  has  to  take  complete  bed  rest. Its  hard  to  just  lie  flat  on  your

back and  turn  a  few  times.

She  gets  irritated,  lonely  and  bored,

sometimes   angry  too.Sister  Namrita  is

nursing  her  day  and  night and  me

helping. My  elder  sister  and  BIL  are on  their way to  India.

That  is  a  great  comfort. 

On  YouTube  I  show  mom  her

favourite  soaps - to  cheer  her  up.

We  have  family  prayers  and  I  read  scriptures  aloud  to  her and  play  Christian  music.

Our  lives  are  centred  around   our  mother.

Namrita's  11  year  old  Rayguel  plays ball,  or  with 

Sheeba. He  watches  cartoons  and  plays  games  .

Hard  to   keep  him occupied,  but  he  doesn' t  complain.  He   is  a  good    boy.

Its  very  cold  here  that  is  making  life

difficult.  But  we thank  God  for 

the  warm   clothes  we  have 

and  a  little  space heater

for  Mom.

Besides  dealing  with  our  mother 's 

illness we  have  facing  some  very

deep  troubles  and  trials.

I  cannot  share  anything  here.

The  devil  is  trying  to  crush  us  and   tear  us  apart.

Its  like   the  Anti Christ  of  the   book

of  Revelation.

I went  through  a  period  of  shock

and  emotional  upheaval.

But  prayer,  reading the  scriptures and  help  from  strong  believers has  kept us  strong

and  stable.

All  this  we  are  hiding  from  Mom,  as  it  will

be  detrimental to her recovery.

we  are  like  on  an  emotional roller

coaster -  up  and  down.

But  always  feeling  the  presence of  God.

We  remain  strong  in  this  evil day.

And  with  Job  I  will  say,

"Tho He  slay me

yet  will  I  trust  Him".

(Job 13;14)

We  need your  prayers

and  support.

Pray  for  our safety.

P.S.

I  am  slowly  visiting   blog  friends.

My  physical energy is low.

The Body Guard

Today was a day of high drama, and spiritual warfare, akin to an episode of a soap opera. I cannot give the details unfortunately.


This morning I went out on important business and could have been mugged and robbed on the way back. But my Shield and Defender God provided maximum security for me and I reached home safely. He is my Body Guard literally



I was taking a breather after this when an unexpected visitors showed up. Five huge men against two weak women ( mama and me). The meeting could have taken a very ugly and nasty turn had not the Holy Spirit given me the right words to say and wisdom to deal with them. I silently kept praying , at times I felt they were not going to leave. We kept talking for nearly 2 hours and they left.



One of them is going to come to see me tomorrow morning to talk about a certain matter.
I promised to help him as best I can.


Please pray for me. We need God' s protection and wisdom and the right words to say. Pray for these men too . That God may wash away the enmity which has taken root in their hearts for each other (they are cousins and brothers) and us too, even my Pastor.



As Goliath reared his monstrous head, I picked up God' s 5 stones to confront him.

For God not given has not us a spirit of fear , but of power , and love and self control. 2 Timothy 1:7 (New Testament)



PS The the evening we had a cool refreshing shower. Praise God!
