Some of the deepest questions of life are,
How do I go forward in this life? (Purpose & destination)
What is the truth??
What does it really means to live??
How do I connect with God?
Jesus answers each one of these in a simple sentence (Jn. 14:6). One Name answers all!
It's been an interesting past couple days in Rishikesh. I've been praying that the Lord would break into this place by the power of the Holy Spirit. Been having some incredible conversations in the coffee shops. I'm seeing more of a sincere interest in seeking answers...

The door to my room in Rishikesh.
Unfortunately, not named after the apostle Paul, but Paul McCartney of the Beatles. The Beatles showed up here in 1968. I believe in their practice here of transcendental meditation, they opened their minds to demonic influence.
...all this assembly may know that the LORD does not deliver by sword or by spear; for the battle is the LORD’S and He will give you into our hands.”
~1 Sam. 17:47
Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, a spear, and a javelin, but I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have taunted. This day the LORD will deliver you up into my hands...
~1 Sam. 17:45-46
And David said, “The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.” And Saul said to David, “Go, and may the LORD be with you.”
~1 Sam. 17:37
But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for God sees not as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”
~1 Sam. 16:7
“For rebellion is as the sin of divination,
And insubordination is as iniquity and idolatry.
~1 Sam. 15:23a
Samuel said,
“Has the LORD as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
As in obeying the voice of the LORD?
Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice,
And to heed than the fat of rams.
~1 Sam. 15:22
Enjoying some buff (water buffalo) Tibetan Thukpa, a soup made with noodles, vegetables, and meat. So good!😋
I came to the city of Dehradun for the weekend. Usually I need a bit of a weekly break, and fellowship with other believers.
Thought I'd check out this little Tibetan restaurant. Loving the foliage from the rooftop seating area.🙂
Only fear the LORD and serve Him in truth with all your heart; for consider what great things He has done for you.
~1 Sam. 12:24
