WAIT ON THE LORD - GOD'S TIMING IS PERFECT


 Dear family and friends,


HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
  


It’s been an excellent month; Christmas was fun everything was successful. As I had mentioned in the last months newsletter Christmas with family support  family was fun the kids enjoyed their time. They had lots of fun they enjoyed their gifts, spending time with each other ,singing carols, playing games, eating lots of snacks, opening presents and more. It’s was a special time where the kids felt treasured, loved and have lots of fun.





I am really excited for what God has planned for this season. A new year with a new beginning, a lot of new goals and new experiences. I would like to share somethings that I have been learning and what this season was for me personally. This season has been a time of waiting for me, a long time just waiting to get some answers. Waiting can be really hard especially when there are no signs of any improvement. All I could think about was to give up hope but this verse was the only thing that sustained me.


Yet those who wait for the LORD will gain new strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles, they will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weary. Isaiah 40:31

We can be content and wait for God’s timing, for it is sure to be the right time. By waiting and trusting patiently, we gain quiet strength.
Throughout this waiting period I have gained strength like never before. This strength that I have gained has helped me not to get weary of waiting but instead wait patiently trusting Him that all will go well and in His perfect timing. There are times when we think there is nothing good coming out of the waiting period but this is the only period where we can learn more then we can ever imagine.As long as we have an open  heart that learns.

The Journey of Empowerment    Dear Family and Friends I am enjoying my journey with FSP. There are things, which I learn every day. I had devoted myself to house visits this month. At present, we have 50 families with 131 children. These families are spread across four communities within Bangalore. It has been a wonderful journey this month personally visiting these families and getting to know a little more about them, spending time, loving them, listening to them and praying for them. Talking to the kids and encouraging them being an older sister to them. Sometimes they just need a person to listen and understand them. In the process of building lives, there is a tendency to be focused on results and outcomes that we may forget to focus on the person or the people group. Relationship building is a key component in the process of development of the fsp families, keeping this in mind there are some points that we keep in mind while we invest into t...

Hello, my name is Santhiya, I am 24 years old .I just graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Management last month, I would like to share my testimony and the wonderful journey I have been having with Jesus. He has been a faithful friend and a dad and He still continues to be faithful to me.  I have had some rough times in life, got distracted and followed paths that I should not have, I let my weakness take control of me and went far away from Jesus, His word, His love and compassion.2010 March 16 th was the day I was fully set free from my sins, guilt, shame and many more bondage's, I thank God for that day I was able to walk in freedom and I could enjoy His presence more.  At the age of 20 I heard God talking to me and He clearly called me to do ministry. At that time I had no idea of how or which ministry to join in, I kept praying and looking for ministries. During my second year of degree I worked part time in FSP Family Support Program. Its a proje...

 Dear Family and Friends   I have completed my first month of work!   It has been a very fruitful month . Throughout this month  I have been counseling many of the Fsp kids, it has been a new experience for me.  I have enjoyed counseling them, Talking to them one on one, getting to know them a little more, listening to their problems and  coming up with solutions along with them.   The girls whom I have been counseling have been very open, they share everything freely and they have been considering me as their elder sister. A week back, we just had a three-day fsp training program for the second time in the past two-months. This training is for organizations or people who are interested to move from institutionalization to family based care. This is what we are trying to accomplish at fsp. We cannot dismiss the presence of childcare institutions altogether. However, we can re define the nature of those admitted to these ins...
