Court greeting our sister in Jesus Christ at the Nidadavolu leprosy colony
Dear Friends in the Lord
Following are a continuation of the most beautiful Christians I have ever met - the lepers in India who have come to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. These are my precious family. Indeed they are your family if you are bound to Jesus Christ.
I pray you are able to preceive the depth of the beauty, love, and faith of Jesus Christ that resides so deeply in these precious saints. They possess the greatest faith because they come to the King of Kings out of the depths of great need. Their's is not the faith of the so called "prosperity gospel" but the faith of Job, and Joseph, and Abraham, and David, and Jesus Christ. They are truly "prosperous" for they are "rich in faith." They endure for the "joy that is set before them."
This beautiful Christian brother is one of the leaders of the Nidadavolu Leprosy colony. He sings about Jesus Christ with all his heart, soul, and strength. His young son was such a great joy to me during this visit. (see next email)
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
Our dear brother at the Tuni Leprosy colony. Our brethren need our love and help.
The joy and faith of these lepers has been greatly strengthened by the love of their American brethren. The lepers of India are considered unclean and untouchable by most of Indian society, and most of them live in poverty in isolated colonies. Compelled by the grace and love of God in Jesus Christ, their Indian and American Christian brethren are reaching out to them, helping them, and embracing them. The greatest love we can show for our Lord Jesus Christ is for us to love His brethren, the Body of Christ.
My friends, please join with us in strengthening and comforting our brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ in India. |
