Kings will come

“All nations will come to your light; mighty kings will come to see your radiance.”Isaiah‬ ‭60‬:‭3‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Truth and justice is right and filled with light. Godliness is attractive. When our actions are not driven by anger or desire for revenge, but rather mercy and righteousness, God is revealed in us and draws the hungry hearts.

Today Timothy and I went and ordered an engagement cake for a young Nepali couple. It was fun. We were blessed with the shop giving us 70% discount. The shop is run by godly people. It was enjoyable looking through the photos of cakes and joking about which Timothy would have as his wedding cake. He likes cartoons. You can imagine what he chose. I responded, “your wife would smack you up the head!” He laughed. Although he is soon to be 25 he said he was too young to marry. He is happy to be a missionary-evangelist. I said, “you might miss out Tim as the Lord may be back before you are ready !” Then I realised he was not concerned. He is driven by mission. A delightful young man.

After we paid for the cake and I paid for the coffee we had whilst viewing the pictures, we walked back to my digs and I saw a dress shop and I said, “Look a Kurtha (a Nepali outfit). I had been told I needed one for the wedding that occurs in November. Timothy took me in and told me to try one on and then bought it for me. I had to parade and have my photo taken. Seriously!

The Lord promise in the above scripture is to Israel. However, Christians tend to love it also. As we shine for Him people are attracted.

This afternoon I took my Nepali language teacher swimming and gave her lessons in how to swim. It was also fun. A young Nepali woman came along and tried to join in and several young men came and offered help with floatation devises, and suggestions on how to swim. Poor Martha! I think she enjoyed herself, I pray the moths enjoyed themselves also.

Isn’t it amazing that you can enjoy yourself in a land where standards are way below your own. God is good!
