. .. .. I am 70 years old now and in HIS mercy. 2022 I was admitted in the hospital due to nervous attack and bed ridden. In the Hospital did all the tests and gave up and said it can’t be cured. Due to circumstances I was in a Home for Elders in Gurugram, India for 18 months with a 24X7 attendent. I prayed to God YeHoVaH to give me death or life to live to HIS glory. My prayers were heard, I was given life. I came out walking from the Home and witnessing the work of God every day.
I am able to move alone now, Weakness and the pain in the body remains. From June onwards I returned to my routine (2014 I was disconnected https://davidmathiraj.wordpress.com/2025/14/07
) and reading Holy Bible, Preparing daily Bible understanding as I did earlier but with two fingers in Android and Notebook. Watering the plants, making kitchen compost, repotting the plants with fertilizer, manures, cow dung; bathing and dressing myself but buttoning is not possible.
The purpose of my life is not known to me but surely I am alive in His mercy and cheerful with the people arround me to tell, meet, witness -new faces in numbers- the wonders of God done to me.
I spend my time to Pray for everyone that lives in my physical condition to be strengthened. YeHoVaH be pleased.
