corn flakes, cold milk.. and a new friend!

so....

i am more than certain it is getting more warm here day by day. so i am relieved to think about myself leaving the day after tomorrow. it will be a long train ride.. and that's ok!

no kiddin.. God answers prayers.. take this for example...

(and i write with glee and eagerness to tell you all of this crazy good thing that has happened!)

a couple days back, i really felt... like i wanted someone to talk to. someone i could travel with. someone... a man... to just spend time with and be in india with. being here alone is not impossible, and is bearable.. but can be lonely at times, especially when being sick. (i am feeling much better physically.. so thank you all for the prayers!)
so i took a walk, but had a certain joy about it. kinda like a free-ness, lack of concern. it may have been because it was the first day i was feeling better and i ate some muesli that morning. music to my taste buds!
i made my way to some places that hold pleasant memories and made my way back down the ghats. in search for an internet cafe with a camera for skyping, i fell upon no such luck. but in the process, i met a north american, and we started chatting, speaking of travel plans and internet cafes. i shared my knowledge with him.. and within minutes, we had tickets booked together and planned to meet for breakfast the next day.
to make it short and more to the point than i could.. God placed him on my heart that night, and the next day, we chatted. not peanut chatter.. but deep, good conversation.

grew up catholic, and searching for.. truth. i am blessed to be me and may i represent Him well!

we travel to the north friday together, and Lord willing look to do some trekking.
(if nothing else, please pray for his mother. she is sick and needs prayers.. urgent.)

ok, ok... enough of this gleeful rambling...

i will miss the family i am staying. they have blessed me so. the city will also be full of memories, but i would rather not return until it has cooled down..... a lot!

funds, i am down to a couple hundred dollars to put me over for the next month here. i am pretty sure it isn't enough.. not to mention funds needed for being in germany until i get a job.. but i am more than certain... DOCH.. MORE THAN CERTAIN that God will continue to hook it up! so all praise goes to Him in advance and for everyday that i have been here and else where. it is all because of His hand of provision and heart of love and grace.

so, i will now skype. much much much much much love and thanks to you all for keeping up with me and the prayers, encouragement.. so on, so on...

viel Liebe, israel


so i did have corn flakes and cold milk for breakfast... today, and yesterday. and dinner the night before last! ha!
