Are you struck by unexpected events and lost hope of surviving?
Have you got nothing to eat and is there no penny in your Purse?
Fear Not!
‘Strengthen Ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees.
Say unto them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, Fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompancce; He will come and Save you.” (Isa.35.3-4)
“But now says the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and He that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not:for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by my name; but thou are mine.
When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee: and through the rivers, they shall not over flow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy one of Israel, thy saviour: I gave Egyptfor thy ransom, Ethiopia and seba for thee:
Since thou wast precious in my site, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.
Fear Not I am with Thee…” (Isa.43:1-5..)
Look At What Jesus Said:
These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace…
“… IN the world ye shall have tribulations: but be of Good cheer: I have over come the world. (Jn16: 33)
Look at our Security:
“ I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; FOR THEY ARE THINE. (jn.17:9)
“And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, KEEP THROUGH THINE OWN NAME those whom thou hast given me…..(Jn.17:11)
“I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but thou shouldest keep themfrom the evil. (Jn.17:15)
“And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them…( Jn.17:22)
“ Father, I will that they also whom thou hast given me , be with me where I am” …(Jn.17: 24)
Jesus!! Is our Eternal “Package” of life abundant. Take heart!!! He knows it all and He is with you till the ends of days. Our sincere prayers follow!!!
Christian
faith stands on just two important pillars.
The
first pillar is:
"Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all
thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and
the greatcommandment."(Mt.22:37). The Lord
expects from His people, only LOVE! and nothing else. For Him all the other
things are only secondary. In essence, God is Love. (1.Jn.4;16)
“He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me is love.
(S.slo.2:4) “Lovest
thou me more than these? (Jn.21:15-17)
“Nevertheless I have some what against
thee, because thou hast left thy first love. (Rev.2:4)
In
(Eph.5:22-30) Apostle Paul reveals to the Church of the husband wife
union and the essence here is that Christ loves His Church, as a husband would
love his wife. Love! Love and Love! And it is the fruit of the Holy
Spirit.But then Jesus went on
explaining the Execution of this love as:If a man love me,
he will keep my words: and my father will love him, and we will make our abode
with him".(Jn14:23)
The
second Pillar in Christianityis:
"The second is like un to it , Thou shalt love thy neighbor as
thyself" (Mt.22:39)
Please!
Notice the words," like unto it". This is the 2nd and “great
command.”
"For if ye
love them which love you, what reward have ye? Do not even publicans the
same?" (Mt.5:46) So, what makes you a real Child of God? "But I say unto You, Love your enemies,
bless them that curse you, and pray for them that deceitfully use you, and
persecute you. (Mt.5:44)
Love
needs a revolution and it is found in 1st Cor.13. Loving the Lord strongly
means loving the fellow being!
To-day,
we have a kind of twisted, perverted and a sensual coated love preached and
practiced. WE have become lovers of self, lovers of our own kin and kith,
lovers of our denominations and doctrines. We love to receive applause,
rewards, and recognition. We amass wealth and proprieties. Some how, the first
love is lost..
Let
us be like zachaeus! " ....Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the
poor: and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore
Him four fold. And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this
house, forsomuch, as he also is a son of Abraham. (Lk.19:8-9)
The
Lord loves the poor because it is there the gospel penetrates. It is they who
give their all to Jesus. Think of the good Samaritan, Dorcas, and the widow
from Nain.
Salvation
is absolutely by the grace of God! But the fulfilled salvation always
ACCOMPANIES good works.
In
India, we want to be a house that is built on the
mountain top. And we want to be a light house! We want to good works that will
reflect the passion of Jesus Christ.
Please!
Stand with us in prayer and partnership.

Dear Friends,
Greetings!from bethelerc!(Bethel Evangelistic And Rehabilitation Centre), in India. I am the Director and the senior servant of this tax exempted and accountable national NGO. We are a social service and community development Society, serving the poorest of the poor, orphaned, children, women, the aged and the suffering; irrespective of ones' religious, community and caste attachment.
Bethel Orphanage:
This is 9 years old and there are 30 boys and girls. Most of them are Orphans who lost both their parents. We provide total holistic care and they are happy and content. We train them vocationally, giving them sewing training. We are planning for the Computer training. And we save a little money on each inmates for their future. It takes 45$, a month, as a over all expense to keep a child here. We urgently need sponsors for these kids. We need a study hall at the cost of $.25,000 and a study hall at the cost of $.25,000.
Women-Development:
Bethel provide sewing training and Micro-credit for the self support schemes of the women and widows. We need capital fund for this project. $.10,000 is needed.These rural women will start a small business of their won, and faithfully return the loan.
Support for the Elderly
Bethel is planning for an elderly home in the future. But presently we are helping the elderly in different ways. We provide medical care, in particular with their eye site, we provide warm cloths and blankets and dresses.
All these are accomplished by the support of hand counted individuals. Bethel do not collect local donations, as it will be small and insufficient. We do not have foreign agencies or funding agencies. I know that there are people who know the meaning of life and the reward of giving to the poor. And this group is seeking avenues to support good causes. I appeal to them, personally to help us with these desperate needs. May God Bless you!
