The Eternal Light.

The Lord as an eternal light shining brighter than sun and moon, symbolizing Isaiah 60:19-20's promise of everlasting glory.

 







No longer will the sun be your light by day

Or the moon be your light by night:

I, the LORD, will be your eternal light:

The light of my glory will shine on you,

Your days of grief will come to an end.

I, the LORD will be your eternal light,

More lasting than the sun and the moon.”

Paddy fields in Kerala.

 

Lush green paddy fields in Kerala with coconut trees and traditional village landscape.








Have you ever gone to a paddy field? It is amazing to go along a rice cultivation field.

The lush green paddy fields of Kerala are a beautiful part of the state’s landscape and rural life. 

Stretching across valleys and lowlands, these fields create a peaceful scene of swaying rice plants, coconut trees, canals, and traditional villages. 

Kuttanad, known as the “Rice Bowl of Kerala,” is especially famous for its extensive paddy cultivation below sea level. 

Palakkad is another important rice-growing region, with vast fields surrounded by hills and greenery.

Paddy cultivation has long been closely connected with Kerala’s culture, traditions, and rural economy. 

The sight of golden paddy fields ready for harvest is one of the most charming images of Kerala’s countryside.

Do not be afraid; God has heard the boy crying....




God's angel comforting Hagar and Ishmael in the wilderness after God hears the boy crying, Genesis 21.


 



Hagar and Ishmael were sent away by Abraham.

"She left and wandered about in the wilderness of Beersheba.

When the water was all gone,she left the child under a bush and sat down about a hundred metres away.

She said to herself , " I can't bear to see my child die." 

While she was sitting there , she began to 

cry .

God heard the boy crying, and from heaven the angel of God spoke to Hagar, "What are you troubled about, Hagar? Don't be afraid. God has heard the boy crying. 

Get up,go and pick him up,and comfort him.

I will make a great nation out of his descendants." Then God opened her eyes and she saw a well.

She went and filled the leather bag with water and gave some to the boy.

God was with the boy as he grew up.

Genesis  21 : 14 - 20

If you are in trouble, if  you are in fear, if you are in tears, God will hear your cry.

God will open new ways to you as he opened Hagar's eyes and made her see a well to fill water for her son.

God will be with you as He was with Ishmael when he grew up.
