On a sunday before two week when I was praying with people after the church there was a new face. A thin old lady. She seems to carrying a heavy load of problems and burdens in her mind.I asked her story.
On that day when she was walking on the road one our friends at the church met her and they began to talk.While they were talking Aleis Nona had shared her burdens with our friend. Her main burden was the illness of her son. He got a skin decease and the whole lower part of the body is fully covered with it so he cant walk or do any of the work. So this lady has to provide him. Because of that she works as a domestic helper even in her old age.
When she came to me I shared with her how Jesus healed people and He is a living God so if she believes even today He can heal her son. She said yes. I shared the gospel and she accepted the Lord.I shared the love of God for her.She cried,cried and cried. Then she smiled. I saw Jesus took all her burdens away.Now I am waiting for her to come with the healing report of her son.
Even today Jesus sets people free.He lives yes He lives !

You can make him a star.....
He was a kidney patient and God healed him on the day he gave his life to God.
Professionally he is a computer soft wear developer and a programmer. He is trying to earn his life in a reputed way where many young people are in to so many bad and crooked things.
Yesterday Chinthana visited me and showed me some soft wears what he had developed. Amazing!.And few web sites as well. But when I look at his computer I got shocked.It took 30 minutes to boot. He has doing programming with this old laptop. I felt that he needs a little push by supplying him a good computer.His one is p4,1.3 Ghz. But I found I only can pray in this period of time with my challenges. But I write this hoping some of you will watch this and God will speak to you to provide this young man a suitable computer and make him a star.
Galatians 6:10
New International Version (NIV)
Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.
Kanthi's story...
Kanthi is a 50 years old lady who earns her life by working as a domestic helper.One our sisters at the church met her while Kanthi was hunting for a job after she lost her earlier one. Kanthi has 3 daughters and she looks after her mother as well.
When our sister at the church met her she has told Kanthi about Jesus. Then Kanthi accepted Jesus and she was invited to the church. I asked Kanthi how we can pray for her. I was told she desperately need a job.
After few day later I saw Kanthi was working at my daughter Michelle's montisory. God has supplied a job for this faithful lady.Next sunday she wanted to give her testimony.Praise God!
Today after the church service when I was praying I felt the Lord was asking me to call all the people those who thinks they need to build up their faith in God. I called them and next I felt I should pray for the sick I called them forward. And again I felt I should call forward and pray for the people for those are discouraged and easily discourages. I call them and Kanthi came forward in this group.I prayed for everybody and in our fellowship time Kanthi came to me.And told me what happened to her at the church today.
When she saw that I called the people who needs to build their faith. She has prayed God that I will call the people who have the same challenge like her.But secondly I called the sick.Then Kanthi has told God not to break her hope.Then I have called the people ,those who are discouraged and easily discouraged. She came and she told me that she dont have words to thank God for caring for her.
If God care for Kanthi,who is a neglected domestic worker and a few days old Christian,how much He cares for you. Leave your burdens and heavy laden and He will give you the rest !
Be blessed !

As for God, his way is perfect...Psalm 18:30
Last Monday we were at one our friends house for a prayer meeting. When we arrive their my friend and his son, who recently came down from Australia welcomed us.As soon as I got down my eyes caught by the WORDS printed on the T-Shirt what the young man was wearing.It says "I AM WITH THE BIG GUY" .
Anyway we walked in and had great time of worship and I got the opportunity to preach.I preached about the storm calmed by our Lord.After I preached I asked have any of you faced storms.Everyone said yes and there was a bog "yes" from that young man,my friends son.He came down because of a little storm,I understood. And I was led by the spirit to explain them two main reasons for storms in our lives and nothing to kill us as He has given His life to save us. After the meeting we were invited for Dinner with them.
I sat with some little ones and I was them for a while and later went to sit with my friend and his son on their table.
Then this wonderful young man started to ask questions and he was sharing that when he was young he felt that there is something greater than the religion practice by his parents and he just told to the sky,If there is such a thing please reveal to me.He felt that all the religious works done by his parents were meaning less and ones he had mentioned that to his parents and later decided t keep quit because he was scared that they may ask him to leave the house because of this unwanted issues.So later he moved to Australia.
When he was in Australia, his family got saved and they were praying for him and told him that they have accepted Jesus and they were born again.And when we were eating his father was suggesting him to pray and ask from God,specially His help for the exam what he is going to take(That was the storm which took this man to Sri Lanka this time,because he didn't get the enough marks for his PR).This wonderful man was saying to his father" I cant ask God to bless me, because I haven't done any good for him,but He has blessed me so much...so I cant ask more and I don't know how to reach to God correctly because I am a sinner and He is not......".I couldn't wait and I jumped up and asked him "Son,have you not invited Jesus in to your life?".He said "No"(Praise the Lord !)
Then I shared the gospel and asked him to close his eyes and guided him with sinners prayer.After the prayer the young man said "Amen" with me and opened his eyes.He was like shocked and told us about an amazing vision he saw when we were doing the sinners prayer...He told us" I saw the soldiers were taking Jesus on the streets.He was carrying the cross. And there were wounds all over His body. Blood on the face. And He looked at me.I was there wearing a roman helmet.I thought no one could identify me. But He looked at me.I was trying to hide,but Jesus looked at me"
I couldn't hide my tears and that moment was amazing.I felt the presence of the Lord right there.
Later found out though this young man was praying to God had not repent and invite Jesus in to his life.
So we came to a conclusion before we depart...."That could be the only reason, why? God brought him here this time to Sri Lanka and he came down because he didnt get enough marks on the test for his PR"....
Yes ,His ways are perfect and He can turn any bad in to good.....
May be this is the reason for your problem on what you are worrying about ,Smile.....!

The modern day Zacchaeus...
I and Dhammi conduct bible studies for few small groups.This evening we had meeting at one of our friends house. We usually have her mother,son and her daughter for the study. This was the miracle took place in this study time.
We went there to our friends house for the study.Sri Lankans love to feed their visitors.So we had the "MUST" tea and some snacks and started the study.
As soon as we started the study class a short person who worked in the house owners paddy fields, started to hang around the place where the meeting was.
Then our friend asked my permission for invite that person to the bible study class.Usually Sri Lankans don't treat their workers in this way.Specially in Kandy. I was little bit amazed but happy about the change of our friends after they gave their lives to Jesus.
We spent some time in reminding our previous lessons and later we start to do the today's lesson. It was about Zacchaeus. The short ,wealthy sinner who gave is heart to Jesus and changed his life.
I cant believe that my God loved this two Zacchaeus that much. The story for me to share the gospel with modern day Zacchaeus and he gave his heart to the Lord.Praise God !
I wonder how this modern day Zacchaeus's heart beats and what a joy he have !
Jesus you are awesome!!!!!!
Please pray for him that he may grow in the word........!

Don't Give up.....
1 Thessalonians 5:1-4
"Now, brothers and sisters, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, 2 for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3 While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.".
Apostle wrote these things to the Church in Thesssalonica.That was a very young church. And in the minds of new Christians was full of questions as it is same in this age. And the temptations and the hindrances for there faith is much available. With no time they can be mislead. So the Apostle was writing to encourage them and warn them about the coming of the Lord. He is going to come to judge. And He is going to come like a thief in the night .SUDDENLY !
My dear friends,family when I read this scripture my eyes stopped at the word SUDDENLY.
Some times you may fighting with a sickness. Sometimes you may fighting with a family problem. Or some times you may fighting with some kind of a challenge or it can be a temptation.And you really felt that you are going through the drops of your patience and hope.You may wanting to give up.You may wanting to quit.
But this morning the Holy Spirit wanted me to convey this to you.His time will come in a SUDDEN. The answers for your prayers will come like a thief in the night. He is going to send you the blessings in a hour no body knows. He is God and His ways are different and higher than our ways and thoughts. He know the correct time.
So don't give up. Keep your prayers and keep pushing. The Lord will open the door in the correct time.
I and my wife Dhammi didn't have children ,even in the fifth year after our marriage. Our relatives starts to talk about this. Even some people at the church. We were praying but didn't see the answer.We wanted to give up and I was trying to convey my idea about adopting a child.But we kept praying.His answer and the blessing came to us SUDDENLY. One day our family doctor announced us that Dhammi is pregnant. And God gave us a pretty daughter and now she is 3 years old.If you see Michelle,my love you will praise God for her for sure.
My friend you also can have miracle...!
Don't give up !
He will come SUDDENLY !
Be ready for a miracle and Be ready to meet Him !

Jesus is building His church.....
Recently we started a special miracle service on every 3rd Sunday evening.We had our latest miracle service on last Sunday the 17th. I was amazed to see that we have grown up to 80 participants.We started Miracle House with three.The Lord has blessed us to be 80 within very short time of period.Within last month there were more that 10 people gave their hearts to Jesus through our ministry.My dearest friends and family thank you very much for all the support and prayers.
We need your continuous as our over heads has gone up.The electricity bill doubled recently after the increase done by the government and after we A/C our meeting place. Though it is expensive now every body is worshiping God in a very pleasant environment.
Please uphold us in your continues prayers so that we can reach 100.In Sri Lanka 310 people dies everyday and only less than 0.9% Christians we have.The majority is not getting a chance to be with Him forever...
