Love in Action


Some may wonder about 'divine powers' and wish they could have them. It is good to wish for something noble, and I can assure dear one that this wish is within your grasp.  I wish to nudge your heart-mind in this direction by sharing how one Hindu man became a Christian warrior.
His fierce indignation at the status quo  is now changing the lives of many girls and young women in his native land, India.  This man speaks out with passion for those who  don't have a voice.  His holy mission is to save those young lives who got snared into the nasty net of sexual slavery.

His name is Dr. Joseph D' Souza. I heard him say:  "The Christian church is under attack, but cast is what's broken in India."

The Dalit  people in India's culture are seen as "outcasts not connected to God" - in the minds of those who need to feel superior.
He pleads, "Pray and respond to free women and children".
He acknowledges that crime of "burning wives" in India  was once a "big concern" but is no longer an issue.  I remember those years! - hearing and reading of yet another woman burnt to death by her husband.
'Burning wives' issue stopped being an issue because compassionate people were willing to do something about it. He spoke glowingly about his Dalit wife: "its the best thing that happened to me."  His aristoctratic family disowned him...Yet,  he and those he helps gained so much more!
 Thanks to like-minded people:  "Construction is underway at many Good Shepherd schools across India."
 Dr. J. D'sousa's latest book is called:  On the Other Side of the Angels: Justice, Human Rights and Kingdom Mission. Book's review note: On the Side of the Angels is an inspiring call to action and an update on the global state of Christian persecution and oppression. Jon Foreman lead vocalist of the band Switchfoot, concludes: "Joseph's words continue to pull all of us towards the only appropriate response, sounding the alarm for love in action."    dalitnetwork.org/go?dfn/resources  Anyone can become a spiritual warrior (donating $$) without having to leave the comfort of one's home.



Path Ordained By God
