In the principle of the Body, the Lord has been teaching me lessons on coordination. As I am with brothers coordinating with me in the literature distribution, as per the Lord's leading, the Lord reminded me that in all decisions making, I simply must just follow the brothers. For, in following the brothers is following the Lord.
In cities where local people are Telugu speakers, wherever and whenever needed, I spoke and the brothers translated for me. In all practical arrangment it has been the brothers who take the lead. Praise the Lord for the Body.
Even today, a couple of brothers joined us in our visiting Christian leaders or pastors. Most of the talk was done by them unless it required my speaking. What a blessing to be in the Body!
At times my natural man wanted to make a point as I felt in some matters I needed to adjust the brothers as the way they did things was kind-of slow and seemed it was a waste of time. But deep within I was reminded again just to amen the brothers' leading. And in doing so, it so turned out that the seemingly time delay was the perfect timing to meet those Christian leaders. The Lord honored the brothers' coordination and blessed our visitation.
It is the sheer mercy of the Lord that I could be in the midst of the brothers, simply to follow them and be blessed.
In all my trip this time in Andra Pradesh and Telengana I rested in the Lord in the brothers' arrangement. What peace I enjoyed in coordination! What a rest in trusting in the Lord's portion in my brothers. Without them I cannot go on in this trip. Above all, the Lord's presence and anointing and blessing was bountiful in the brothers' coordination in the Body. I simply follow the brothers... This is how the Lord leads me on and on...
