How I got a wife in supernatural way

In Prague I met people from Harvest International who were traveling around in old buses with circus tent preaching and praying for sick, so I went with them for some years . We have seen thousands and thousands of people to come to Jesus and to be healed. Gods power was so strong there, that when I saw some person who could not walk properly or move hands, I was glad that people in tent will see Gods Healing power in action, since majority of those people Jesus healed completely or they got considerably better.( In west countries only few people were healed, not majority) Than some business man paid me to go with them to Thailand, to translate business. I stayed there for several months and could do evangelisation with local pastors or preach in the church, since business took only few hours in week. But even though Thai people are so nice and kind, it was a very differenn culture and I felt very lonly there, having no girlfriend, wife or close friend. Then I got invitation to be a pastor and also invitation by US missionary to work with him with boat ministry which I preferred most. I told them I would need a wife to live in Thailand permanently so I went back to Czech republic to get one. When I came to Prague I asked God to send me a wife to Methodist Church, which I planed to visit on Sunday. (a girl who would not be afraid of adventure on boat or jungle and would not mind living in a simple way without the electricity and things spoiled westerners are used to) On Sunday I went to Church and at the tram station I saw a nice girl with beautiful ayes. So I told God I would like a girl like that, and also to give me courage to talk to her ( I was allways shy to talk to girls, more pretty they were, the more shy I was, and this was a very pretty girl). God heared my prayer and  gave me courage, so I gave her Christian tractate and invited her to that Methodist Church behind the corner where I was on way to. She told me , she is also going to that Church, she is only waiting for her father. She came to Church, gave me her address, 3days later I asked her if she would mind living on sailing boat or in the simple hut in jungle, and she said she would love it, therefore I asked her to marry me and she said yes. 3weeks after I met her, we got married when my mentor Gösta Öman come to Prague. I think it is normally much better when people know each other longer time before they get married, but I needed to get back to Thailand soon (had no money of my own to travel - those business man payed the travels when they needed me) . First long time after that, she admitted that she was praying to God the same week as I did, telling Him that she does not want to be alone any more, asking Him to send her a husband who is older than she and who likes adventure a lot, to that Methodist Church ( where she normally does not go - and neither did I) that Sunday.



Back in Thailand we were happy to see how God was doing His miracles and saving people.


Once we were for example asked to pray for an old man who fell from a high mango tree and broke his back so he could not walk. Doctors said they can not do anything for him anymore. We prayed to Jesus for whom there are no hopeless cases, but we did not see any healing that day. Next day he told his doughtier that in the dream he heard a voice telling him he is healed now and can go to WC by himself, but he was arguing that he can not walk. When he woke up, he went to WC by himself and his doughtier said he is not so much surprised that Jesus healed him, but what surprised him very much was that God of foreigners can speak so perfectly Thai language.

A Sweet Salty Touching Love Story

He met her on a party. She was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her, while he was so normal, nobody paid attention to him. At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him, she was surprised, but due to being polite, she promised.

They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable, she thought, please, let me go home. Suddenly he asked the waiter: "would you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee."

Everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red, but, still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it. She asked him curiously : why you have this hobby? He replied: "when I was a little boy, I was living near the sea, I liked playing in the sea, I could feel the taste of the sea ,just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty coffee, I always think of my childhood, think of my home town, I miss my home town so much, I miss my parents who are still living there". While saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched.

That's his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart. A man who can tell out his homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, cares about home, has responsibility of home. Then she also started to speak, spoke about her far away hometown, her childhood, her family. That was a really nice talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story.

They continued to date. She found that actually he was a man who meets all her demands; he had tolerance, was kind hearted, warm, careful. He was such a good person but she almost missed him!Thanks to his salty coffee!

Then the story was just like every beautiful love story, the princess married to the prince, then they were living the happy life...

And, every time she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the coffee, as she knew that's the way he liked it. After 40 years, he passed away, left her a letter which said:" My dearest, please forgive me, forgive my whole life lie. This was the only lie I said to you---the salty coffee. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt it was hard for me to change so I just went ahead. I never thought that could be the start of our communication!

I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything.. Now I'm dying, I afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth: I don't like the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste..But I have had the salty coffee for my whole life! Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you. Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life. If I can live for the second time, still want to know you and have you for my whole life, even though I have to drink the salty coffee again". Her tears made the letter totally wet.

Someday, someone asked her: what's the taste of salty coffee? It's sweet. She replied.

Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear.

Loan from Jonny

Little Johnny was being questioned by the teacher during an arithmetic lesson. "If you had ten dollars," said the teacher, "and I asked you for a loan of eight dollars, how much would you have left?"
"Ten," Little Johnny answered firmly.
"Ten?" she said, "How do you make it ten?"
Replied Little Johnny, "You may ask for a loan of $8 dollars but that doesn't mean you'll get it!"

THE BATTLE OF THE SILENT SOUL - U Kausikaa

A petite mistake turned out to be an horrendous incident
thrown out of life to face death's front
the knight racked in torturous pain
anguish, agony and was shoved away with nothing else than bain.

That began the war of life and death
fighting for life, fighting for breath
filled with hope and passion to live
trying to make out and strongly believe.

The soldier became a spark of light
taught us a lesson to realise what's not right
Became a cause to revolutionary protest
to make India safer, better than best.

The days that followed were a chain of struggle
The soldier's battle turned out to be an incomplete puzzle

Overcoming pain and stress, a message was conveyed
" Please save me, I want to live "
Sorry sister we left your hopes betrayed
Our apologies to those moments of greive.

Unfortunately the war came to an end
The soldier breathed her last
Pulled away to heaven, by her angel friend
but not to be forgotton as a past.

It all ended on a terrible black Saturday
Sister don't you worry, it'll never fade away
From the botton of my heart I heartfully pray
your sacrifice will make its way.

I'll ask not for your soul to rest in peace
I know, It will, when you get justice
yaani, didi tu hamesha hamara bharath logoan ka dil ka diya
"Hame maaf kar do NIRBHAYA!!!!!!"

Old Grandpa

A frail old man went to live with his son, daughter-in- law, and four-year old grandson. The old man’s hands trembled, his eyesight was blurred, and his step faltered. The family ate together at the table. But the elderly grandfather’ s shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. When he grasped, the glass, milk spilled on the tablecloth.

The son and daughter-in- law became irritated with the mess. “We must do something about Grandfather, ” said the son. “I’ve had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating, and food on the floor.” So the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. There, Grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner. Since Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl. When the family glanced in Grandfather’ s direction, sometimes he had a tear in his eye as he sat alone. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp admonitions when he dropped a fork or spilled food. The four-year-old watched it all in silence.

One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood scraps on the floor. He asked the child sweetly, “What are you making” Just as sweetly, the boy responded, “Oh, I am making a little bowl for you and Mama to eat your food in when I grow up.” The four-year-old smiled and went back to work. The words so struck the parents that they were speechless. Then tears started to stream down their cheeks. Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done.

That evening the husband took Grandfather’ s hand and gently led him back to the family table. For the remainder of his days he ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, neither husband nor wife seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled, or the tablecloth soiled.

Moral: Children are remarkably perceptive. Their eyes ever observe, their ears ever listen, and their minds ever process the messages they absorb. If they see us patiently provide a happy home atmosphere for family members, they will imitate that attitude for the rest of their lives. The wise parent realizes that every day the building blocks are being laid for the child’s future. Let’s be wise builders and role models. Because Children are our future. Life is about people connecting with people, and making a positive difference. Take care of yourself, … and those you love, ... today, ... and everyday!

Three old men went to see God

Three old men went to see God.

The first old man, an American, asked God when will his country come out of recession. "100 years," God said.
The American started weeping profusely. "I will not live to see that day"

Second man, a Russian asked God "When will my country become prosperous?"  "Fifty years," came the reply.
Russian too started weeping profusely. "I will not live to see that day"

Finally the Indian asked God, "When will my country become corruption-free?"
God started weeping profusely. "I will not live to see that day"

Relationship & Trust

Little girl and her father were crossing a bridge.

The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter, "Sweetheart,please hold my hand so that you don't fall into the river."

The little girl said,"No, Dad. You hold my hand."

"What's the difference? Asked the puzzled father.

"There's a big difference," replied the little girl.

"If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go.

But if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go."

Moral of the story :-

In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in its bond. So hold the hand of the person whom you love rather than expecting them to hold yours...

Conversation with GOD

Men: God, can I ask You a question?

God: Sure

Man: Promise You won't get mad

God: I promise

Man: Why did You let so much stuff happen to me today?

God: What do u mean?

Man: Well, I woke up late

God: Yes

Man: My car took forever to start

God: Okay

Man: at lunch they made my sandwich wrong & I had to wait

God: Huummm !!!

Man: On the way home, my phone went DEAD, just as I picked up a call

God: All right

Man: And on top of it all off, when I got home ~I just want to soak my feet in my new foot massager & relax. BUT it wouldn't work!!! Nothing went right today! Why did You do that?

God:Let me see, the death angel was at your bed this morning & I had to send one of My Angels to battle him for your life. I let you sleep through that.

Man: (humbled): OH

GOD: I didn't let your car start because there was a drunk driver on your route that would have hit you if you were on the road.

Man: (ashamed)

God: The first person who made your sandwich today was sick & I didn't want you to catch what they have, I knew you couldn't afford to miss work.

Man: (embarrassed):Okay

God: Your phone went dead because the person that was calling was going to give false witness about what you said on that call, I didn't even let you talk to them so you would be covered.

Man: (softly): I see God

God: Oh and that foot massager, it had a shortage that was going to throw out all of the power in your house tonight. I didn't think you wanted to be in the dark.

Man: I'm Sorry God

God: Don't be sorry, just learn to Trust Me.... in All things, the Good & the bad.

Man: I will trust You.

How does it know?

An engineer, a physicist, a mathematician, and a mystic were asked to name
the greatest invention of all time.
The engineer chose fire, which gave humanity power over matter.
The physicist chose the wheel, which gave humanity the power over space.
The mathematician chose the alphabet, which gave humanity power over
symbols.
The mystic chose the thermos bottle.
"Why a thermos bottle?" the others asked.
"Because the thermos keeps hot liquids hot in winter and cold liquids cold
in summer."
"Yes - so what?"
"Think about it." said the mystic reverently. "That little bottle - how
does it know?"

Can't take that chance

A man and his ever-nagging wife went on vacation to Jerusalem. While they were there, the wife passed away.

The undertaker told the husband, "You can have her shipped home for $5,000, or you can bury her here, in the Holy Land, for $150."

The man thought about it and told him he would just have her shipped home. The undertaker asked, "Why would you spend $5,000 to ship your wife home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you would spend only $150?"

The man  replied, "Long ago a man called Jesus Christ died here, was buried here, and three days later he rose from the dead. I just can't take that chance.

Peace of Mind

While traveling with a group of his loyal disciples, Buddha came across a peaceful lake. His journey had made him thirsty, so he turned to one of his followers and said, "I need water." Please go to the lake and get some."

The chosen disciple quickly approached the lake, but just as he arrived, a bullock cart began to traverse the water, making it murky and turbid.

When the disciple saw the state of the water, he hesitated, thinking, "How can I offer this muddy water to Buddha for him to drink?" With this in mind, he returned to Buddha and respectfully stated, "The water in the lake has become muddy." I believe it is inappropriate for your consumption."

After about a half-hour, Buddha asked the same disciple to retrieve water from the lake once more. The disciple dutifully retraced his steps and discovered that the water was still in the same state as before. He informed Buddha of his findings.

Buddha later made the same request to the disciple a third time. When the disciple arrived at the lake this time, he was pleasantly surprised to see that the mud had settled, leaving the water clear and pristine. He quickly filled a pot with the now crystal-clear water and returned it to Buddha.

After closely inspecting the water, Buddha turned his gaze to the disciple and imparted his wisdom, saying, "Observe what you have learned from this lake." You let it be, and eventually, the mud settled on its own, leaving you with clear water. This lake represents your mind. Allow it to be when it is disturbed. Give it some time, and it will eventually settle. You don't have to use any force to calm it down. This procedure is simple."

Finding 'Peace of Mind' is not a difficult task; it unfolds naturally with time and patience, much like the lake's waters.

Vicar's Teeth

A Vicar goes to the dentist for a set of false teeth.

The first Sunday after he gets his new teeth, he talks for only eight minutes.

The second Sunday, he talks for only ten minutes.

The following Sunday, he talks for two hours and 48 minutes.


The congregation had to mob him to get him down from the pulpit and they asked him what happened.

The Vicar explains the first Sunday his gums hurt so bad he couldn't talk for more than eight minutes.

The second Sunday his gums hurt too much to talk for more than 10 minutes.

But, the third Sunday, he put his wife's teeth in by mistake and he couldn't shut up.

PRAISE THE LORD!!

An elderly lady was well-known for her faith and for her boldness in talking about it. She would stand on her front porch and shout "PRAISE THE LORD!"

Next door to her lived an atheist who would get so angry at her proclamations he would shout, "There ain't no Lord!!"

Hard times set in on the elderly lady, and she prayed for GOD to send her some assistance. She stood on her porch and shouted "PRAISE THE LORD. GOD I NEED FOOD!! I AM HAVING A HARD TIME. PLEASE LORD, SEND ME SOME GROCERIES!!"

The next morning the lady went out on her porch and noted a large bag of groceries and shouted, "PRAISE THE LORD."

The neighbor jumped from behind a bush and said, "Aha! I told you there was no Lord. I bought those groceries, God didn't."

The lady started jumping up and down and clapping her hands and said, "PRAISE THE LORD. He not only sent me groceries, but He made the devil pay for them. Praise the Lord!"
