Well, last night, Monday, I had a war with the mosquitos all night. I won. That is, I emerged from the room alive . . . most of them did not. I didn't get much sleep, however! I am writing this from a remote village (Mechiliputnam) on a borrowed computer. I WWAAYYY underestimated how hard it was going to be to find any kind of internet access here in India when I agreed to do this blog thing.
The Meetings are going unbelievably well. This morning about 100 people packed into a room that would comfortably fit, maybe, 30 in a remote village with thatch roof. These people are amazing in their love for Jesus and capacity to endure. They are backward and limited in their education, but they are smarter than whips! They are bright, brilliant, beautiful people. God must really like Indians. He makes so many of them. I can see why.
The Lord gave me a word for these folks and I've been sharing it in most of the leadership settings. It has been very well received. COB folks will recognize it -- I've been teaching on the blessing of unity. I did a three part series just before I left. I've been preaching most of all three parts in one setting here -- lasts about an hour and a half -- and they hang with me the whole time. Amazing.
Well, got to go, Pastor Jyothi is wanting to drag me off to preach at another meeting.
