My Blog

I had a good one hour of fellowhip with brother Rafik. It was as if I was in my shepard’s apartment in Elephant & Castle. Rafiq is 44, and a Senior Pastor. His story is exactly the same as mine, except with more supernatural miracles. There is no other difference. He is Indian and a born-again christian. There is a tiny community of Indian Catholics here, but I thought I was the only born-again. Furthemore, he is a Gujarati - the same language as mine, the same culture, the same food, etc. Even furthermore, he is a former Gujarati Muslim. I thought there was no chance that I’ll meet anyone who matches so closely with me. To top that all, he is from the same tribe of Muslims as I was (and this tribe is among the smallest in numbers). So this guy is a Bohora-Muslim-Gujarati-Indian-Born Again Christian-living in Tanzania. The probability that I would meet someone who matches to me so closely is one in a million. But I met him! It’s God’s plan and not a coincidence.

It was very emotional for both of us as we shared how the families reacted to us finding Jesus. Our stories are so similar. He is excited and so am I. Thank you God - you planned this event even before you called me. Thanks for praying for me HLCC.

Dear well wishers - allow me to do a little blogging. After 4 months, God led me to attend a wonderful Sunday Service yesterday. That was the first service outside Hope London. Nothing was different - God’s children all over the world are so similar. They display tha same fruits of having God’s presence in their life.

Spent 31st December 2005 midnight @ The Sea Cliff with childhood buddies. Impressive fireworks, but not even close to London. Oh! I miss that city but I feel like a king over here.

First week @ work. Pretty calm, just learning the product and getting to know the target market. The company’s into B-2-B FMCG business (Am I using business jargon?).

How was my 2005? - a lot of mistakes and wrong financial decisions. But one big and correct decision compensated all the wrong ones. Nothing bothers me because I know my God saved the day and Salvation is here. Thanks Yan, Alicia, Kenny, Eldos, Yanti, Yoppy. I still remember those few seconds when I said you goodbye. I don’t want to recall it - it just came suddenly. Lets embrace the glorious future ahead. Keep me in your prayers.
