Advice

“The Lord says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you.”Psalms‬ ‭32‬:‭8‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Today was church. I had prayed for some Americans, they came, three of them. One woman and two men. One man preached. I spoke to the woman in length and exchanged phone numbers. I have been invited to a bible study group on Thursday. The Americans did not show an interest in lunching with us, so we went alone. I shared my vision for translation with all and the men did not seem interested. I also shared the vision with a pastor at the church and he was very interested. 

I make a point of sharing ideas looking for what the Lord might be saying. Before I went to church I had a young Nepali zealot try to extract $1,000 from me for gifts to his home village. I said “No!” I know what my money will be spent on, what God orders. I did not get them impression is was a God-order. This is the biggest problem westerners have in Nepal. We are seen as the bank, or better, free money. The young Nepali is the person I wish to employ to narrate the translated bible studies I will undertake. However, he will earn his money, and it will not be $1,000 up-front.

I heard from David Pawson’s group in England. They will be willing to help with funding but will deliver on completion of a unit. I am grateful they offered. I am about to contact a man who is a translator and who has fallen into despondency. I wish to redeem him and fire him up again. Lord willing it will work! Amen!
