Day - 8 365 days 365 places - Bless India It's a Prayer journey Ranirhat IEC church to Birpara - 5

Praise the Lord Family. Today I started  my journey from a village called Ranirhat. The roads were not that great but I pedaled along. As I rode I came to a halt to see a poor guy eating out of a garbage dump. The food was all degenerated and it broke my heart to see him like that. I don't carry food on me otherwise I could have offered him some. I just stood there and prayed for him for God to intervene in his life. Then I got on to a better road and actually I was ro head to a place called Falakata. I was supposed to stay there tonight. I tried my best to arrange a place but was not successful. With that on my mind as I rode some distance I decided to check my Google maps and I realized that I was heading to Birpara instead of Falakata.  I was like oh Lord did I miss my route but I still rode along. When I came to a halt at one place I saw a man heading towards me with a bottle of water. I was quite surprised ..he offered it to me free of cost. I was so grateful and happy. That's when I realized God has a plan and he is leading me to Birpara. Just to encourage you family our ignorant detours are never a surprise to God. Trust him he is holding your hands. He will never forsake us or leave us. Then I called Brother Biplob from Alipur through him another brother connect with me Brother sataya and he said if you come to Birpara I can arrange a place for you to stay. Isn't the Lord so good. Unbeknownst to me my God steared by cycle to Birpara. Praise be to his holy name. I continued by journey for a distance and I came by to a roadside fast food centre which opens only at night. It was very very hot so I thought of taking some rest besides this fast food stand. The owner was busy cutting some vegetables preparing for his business in the night. We got into a small conversation. He said basically he is from Nepal but he is doing this job in this hotel. I told him I was from Kanyakumari. Then another man turned up and I talked with him too. These are all unbelievers with whom I could converse.  Then the fast food owner asked me if I had any food . I said not yet. He said I can quickly fix you some food and lo and behold within a few minutes he made me a a very tasty meal of Veg fried rice. I thoroughly enjoyed eating it and on top of it he did not even charge me. Such was the miraculous provision from the Lord with food and water. Along the route I met about 16 people in all . I prayed for them in my heart. I strongly believe that God would intervene in their lives and I would see them in heaven one day. Amen. Finally I reached Birpara and was warmly welcomed into a home there. I felt so glad today about my Lord's care and protection. Though my knee is painting with all that cycling my heart is rejoicing in the Lord. Totally I traveled about 50 kms today. Covet your prayers family as always . May God bless you abundantly.
