HAPPY TEACHERS DAY !!!!

Dear Teacher,

I am so thankful to God for your incredible gift to impart your knowledge through love, care, and concern. You have been such a gentle like a mother and form like a father to teach the valuable, infallible, eternal, life transforming, God’s breathed, life giving word to me. You have been such an inspiration for me to look upon and move ahead in life. You helped me to understand life is not just about surviving or becoming a billionaire. It is about being good stewards, being faithful, being available on to God’s hand for His purpose. You help me to understand, success comes only by the favour of God (Gen 39:2; ESV). Abundance, I will have, if I could only hear God’s voice (John 21:11). You taught me to stand on a high ground and see far. You taught me to live selfless life through your life examples. I pray, God to give me strength to follow your foot-steps as you follow Christ, our lord the only true teacher above all.

Happy Teachers Day.

Heaven rejoiced, while the Earth was mourning

It was around 9:30, when I heard the news of my foster dad, went to be with the Lord… my memories started to flash back in front of my eyes as videos. Tears rolled down on my cheek and my hands were lifted up praising my heavenly father, singing a song “It is well, it is well with my soul”.
I could remember thousands of stories, which are treasured in my heart throughout the years. I had such a great pleasure to serve the Lord along with him as a young man, the way Joshua served the Lord along with Moses. I knew him well. I knew him in and out. I knew not only his house, office or a laptop but I knew his emails and his ATM cards pin-codes. I travelled all over India, while we were together with “ELLEL MINISTRIES INDIA”. I saw miracles and wonder working power of Christ through his life. He was truly a great man of faith.
I was pampered by him being a youngest adopted son (unofficially). I was brought into HOME (Shanti kunj), when I was struggling to survive physically and spiritually and was rejected and thrown out of Church and even from mission just as a raping paper. Literally, I was on a road. He picked me up, and “he put robe, he put ring on my finger and sandals on my feet, he cut the fattened goat and celebrate for this son of mine was lost and is found.”(Luke 15:11-32). He stood along with me when my legs were feeble. “I was hungry and he gave me food, I was thirsty and he gave me water, I was stranger and he welcomed me in his heart/home, I was naked and he clothed me, I was sick and he visited me, I was in a chained and he set me free” (Matthew 25:35). He loved me, as if I was his biological sons or a daughter.
He loved people, so he never missed any opportunity to share “GOOD NEWS,” because he believed people will go to hell without Jesus. HE LIVED WHAT HE BELIEVED. He was more careful not to miss out poor people through Gospel, because he knew Jesus had soft-corner for poor people. He did not miss out any opportunity to share Christ, though I was embarrassed many times due to his witnessing lifestyle. He finished his RACE WELL (Matthew 25:23). Now, BATTON is on my hand as his sons and daughters who has been adopted and touched by God through DAD (Eicher). He has left the legacy behind, for us to follow….. as he is leading us through the magical, mysterious, glorious door (death) right into the presence of our Father God, following our Lord Jesus Christ. We all have one opportunity since we have one life here on earth to make difference and leave legacy behind till we enter through that magical, mysterious and glorious door.
