Arriving in India
Yesterday morning we arrived in Jaipur. Our friend Zephry waited for us at the airport giving us a heartwarm welcome. It was so good to see him and his family as we went to be with them after some sleep in the morning.
Brenda and Zephry are great friends. They are precious people, totally committed to the Lord. They have such a lovely family. We are always refreshed being with them. Yesterday we once again had a very delicious and tasteful meal with them.
Today we have been with some of the leaders in the covenant community in Jaipur. Solveig and were both blessed as they were sharing some of the insights they had gain through some of our previous visits. I am so excited to be with some many kind and zealous people and to be able to interact with them. My life is being enriched by being with such people.
This evening Zephry took us to a beautiful tea parlour in Jaipur called Wagh Bakri. We really enjoyed the fresh tea they served and I bought one kilo of tea to take home. On a beautiful picture on the wall I discovered this inscription: "If a man has no tea in him, he is incapable of understanding truth and beauty!" I cuold fully agree with him - but to some degree only! Tea is a gift of God to mankind and when one has learnt to enjoy it as such it brings freshness and understanding of beauty. However knowing the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the way, the truth and the life, enable us to appreciate and understand both truth an beauty even if we have no tea in our stomach. But off cause with tea in you everything in life tastes better!
