Contacts

Don't you love it when you meet people you just click with?

The other day we were put in contact with a couple (I shall call them Mr and Mrs G) that have been in India for 46years, that's right 46. Oh, and they aren't Indian. These guys are legends. Here's what I like about them.

• They are in their late 60s (I think, they have kids our age so I am  guessing)
• They are so humble
• They have wisdom
• They are encouraging
• They are down to earth
• Easy to chat with

Not once did these guys make us feel inferior to them just because they had been here for years. They were genuinely interested in what we were doing and wanted to do anything they could to give us advice on Visa extensions etc. The wisdom they had with these matters was amazing.

The other thing that was exciting was that they run a girls home/orphanage about 2 hours away from here. It also has a school attached to it. There are about 62 girls in total. This gets something in my heart jumping with excitement. I know that we are going to be involved with something like this because it is such a passion within me. We hope to take a visit sometime and see if anything happens from there. Interestingly, Mrs G's comment about us was that maybe we were an answer to pray but just left it at that, nothing more, just left us hanging there :) I will wait with eager anticipation to see what this contact brings. I feel revitalised and encouraged, nothing seems impossible anymore. This seems funny to say when we are facing our visa extension soon and the odds look like we will be sent back but  the thing is that we have seen the impossible happen, so why not again?
