Not much time to arrange the photos.For text scroll down :)
Tea
We eat rice, sweat a lot, eat rice again and inhale the disel gas on the street. We do a lot of visits and every night we publicly preach and distribute tracts. Every day.
Today I feel exhausted and after two visits in the morning I came back so I can update the blog.
The Lord has a lot of questions for me during this time in India, a lot of challanges. Yes, my life is challanged a lot in this culture.
Life in India....
It's very hard for some people, hard for others. It's not a country of contrasts so far, there are no many rich people. Rich means you have a job - any job- you have a motorcycle and the richest have a small car and a house.
The canalization system is the same used by the romans 2000 years ago!
We visited Darjeling - close to the border with Nepal - these last two days. It's so diferent - it's another culture - the Nepali culture. People look diferent, behave different, dress modern or traditional but very clean and usually keep their city clean.
Traveling in India is also hard. Bumpy roads everywhere and crazy but good drivers. Everybody is ready to overtake everybody. People here drive on the left side of the road in theory but in everyday life you just have to find your way may it be on the left or on the right side of the road. It doesn't matter, you just have to get there.
Nepali people are nice and Darjeeling is great, I want to go back there and do some sightseeing.
I bought a big knife, some hats, we visited the zoo and a local church. The weather is perfect for me - around 10 degrees Celsius. Nice.
We also publicly preached. It's very interesting for us to sit in the middle of a marketplace and to begin to speak. Speak about what? What to say? But God used this to speak to people through us. In 5-10 minutes usually we have a crowd of 100 persons listening to us.
People here in India worship idols and think highly of themselves. They belive they have no sin, or there is nobody to judge their sins, or everybody has sins but because of this they are just one face in the crowd so they can't be blamed.
4 days ago I was involved in a little accident. A car came pretty fast towards our riksha used here by the locals to get to places. I yalled but the driver seemed to go exactly towards this car.
The car hit us slightly and bended the riksha's wheel. That day was a crazy day with several of these events.
Thank you for your prayers.
