Be Blessed ~ Be Grateful ~ Be Proud of the Family!

Family living in Sewer Pile of 45 square feet! I don't buy magazines often anymore but I couldn't pass up this months copy of Christianity Today because it talked about Grassroots Revival in India. It was a good article which once again reminded me of how some of our brothers and sisters in Asia get by day by day. This email is to encourage you. Be proud of the body of Christ wherever and whenever it manifests. And be proud and thankful that we enjoy that fellowship. Note# We receive a Kingdom that CANNOT be shaken so don't let current mind-riots mess with your spirit. Here's how the article starts out and the picture of this precious sister Shivamma. "Shivamma stands in front of her house, braiding her little girl’s hair. Her feet are bare, her sari is simple, and she is rail thin, but she speaks to visitors with boldness. She is the face of the new Christianity in India. Shivamma’s home is nestled inside a concrete storm sewer discarded by the factory where she and her husband work. The neighborhood, hidden in an overgrown back lot, consists of huge pipes lined up like mobile homes. Her family of four live within 84 square feet." CT July 2001, pg.28-29
