a chance to share

everyday, i want to run and scream from the roof tops, "don't you see? the Son is the answer!! He brings grace and forgiveness." but everyday i have to be reminded by Him, "just wait, my timing is perfect." today was the day we got to share. after hours and hours of looking at family photos and playing with screaming children, (which i do love, i promise), we finally took the opportunity to tell a story about the Son. we told our closest family the story when the Son healed the woman who had been bleeding for twelve years and then acted it out. to be sure of understanding, we broke out a Hindi testament, but she had one, (truly suprising), and started reading it. more awe came over her face. later, her mom came home and she read it to her. we thought for sure we would get kicked out, but HE is good and the mom just nodded her head. we don't know what this means, but we are excited to share again. we go again tomorrow, but probably won't share another story unless asked. we don't want to be overbearing, but desire to share more than anything!! ask that He would continue to give us boldness to share and that our families would not only be receptive, but have understanding.

everything else seems to be going well. we are getting a bit of delhi-belly sonce we are eating more of the food, (i had 2 samosas today!!!). but we stomach it for the sake of the cross :).

love you all and am excited to share more in person!
