*Clink.Tap.Clink…Thump*

           The child jumped and hit his metal pan against my window on the bus.*Clink.* And I was out of candy. They *tap* your arm. They hit the window. His metal pan came back up to smack the window again but made it in between the bars and hit my ribcage.*Thump.* A nearby bus conductor chased him off. And off he went. To beg some more. To try and make enough earnings for the day. To “work his side of the street.â€� And go back to what? A home? Or the old creeper he probably works for. And what could possibly be waiting for him...

Get Ready…

We are now in our last month of ministry. When did it ever get to be November anyway? Which I KNOW this last month is going to go fast. I can’t say that it feels like just yesterday that we were exiting the plane in Goa, because really it feels like that was FOREVER ago,  but I know it was just there. We were just coming to this place, so unsure of what lay ahead but excited for all the Lord was going to do and how He was going to use us. And though many may be skeptical of what could happen in only three months, really the Lord is showing us day by day that His work...

UPRISING.

This country needs good men. I noticed this almost immediately after starting ministry in India. There are so many different issues that this country is facing. But in my opinion, the root of so many of them is the men. So many men in this country do not work. But their wives do. What do the men do? Take care of their children? No. Tend to household duties? No. Do anything productive? Not usually. They drink. They gamble. They visit brothels. They may have other wives. Yet they beat their wives because they have money problems, or because their wives do not bear boys. Or for countless...

Strength

  “She girds herself with strength, and makes her arms strong. She perceives that her merchandise is profitable. Her lamp does not go out at night”.-Proverbs 31:17-18                   WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW? Her husband would yell in his drunken fits, as his fists hammered a beating on her petite framed body. WHERE IS YOUR JESUS? This is just one of many stories that I have heard like this from her. And her name is Strength. She is a born again Believer, and she is one of the shop owners on...
