The past week and a half that we’ve been in India has been awesome. A
lot has gone on mentally, and I have been trying to focus on love
through actions and words.
I just want to share something that has been very encouraging for me…
While there is so much darkness in India, there is light here, and that
brings me great joy. While wandering around in the surrounding
community with a teammate, we started speaking with a woman, I’ll call
her Charlotte. Charlotte is a believer, and we were able to speak with
her for about 2 hours. She welcomed us into her home, and Aunti kept
bringing us dish after dish of food. I had no idea what some of the
food was. Charlotte was the only one in her family who spoke English,
but the rest of her family would communicate through her to us at
times. We shared our stories and *Dad’s stories with her, because she
doesn’t have the book to read about Him. It was really awesome, and
such a joy and inspiration to know a national believer who is speaking
with her friends and family about what is so important. As we were
leaving, Aunti brought us bangles, jasmine for our hair, and put bindis
(dots) on our foreheads. It was her way of showing us love and
appreciating us. It was a great experience to spend so much time with
an Indian family and to see a young woman who knows the one true *Dad
and depends on Him for everything.
Continue p-ing for us and the work we are doing for *Dad.
