Pray for Stuti

This is a post from Stuti on the second death anniversary of my mother today.

EMy sweet, endearing, and kindhearted Daadi (my dad's mother), who had her last day on this planet 2 years ago. I love and miss my Daadi, but know she has finally reunited with her husband, after his abrupt departure many, many years ago. So as much as it hurts anyone who knew (and automatically) loved her, not to have her caring heart around anymore, we know she is in a better place. The brokenness of not having her around remains, but so does her love and joy ❤️Daadi was the sweetest woman I know, a little stubborn at times (friends, this is where I get part of my stubbornness from!), I know for a fact I also get my moments of being sassy from her (honestly, sorry not sorry dad! 🙄😉) Up until her last breath, she always put me first and made sure of my wellbeing before she ever had a chance to worry about herself. I know she looks down at my dad and I and is overjoyed that we have moved back to India and even more so, that we have renovated her place and made it OUR home. I know for a fact I get my smile from her, my smiley personality included 😁 and, for anyone that has commented on how tiny my pinky toe is, she is the only other person I know who shares this same feature as me! ☺️ For something I was made fun of when I was younger, I love having an odd feature as such because I know my Daadi and I are the only ones who have this in common 😬 I could write a book about her, my memories of her, and so on, but for the sake of me not losing anyone's interest, let's just wrap it up in a short and simple way: I loved my Daadi, I miss her more than I can put in words, and she will always be a blessing to my family ❤️👵🏽❤️

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you
And through the rivers, they will not overflow you
When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned
Nor will the flames scorch you! Isaiah 43:2-3
A few months ago, this kid longed for the love of a brother; knowing little that God had kept not one but THREE BROTHERS to give their love and protection to her!
Today, on the festival of Rakhee (the day of brother and sister's love) she had the privilege to be with all three

Post workout with my girl! She encourages me to go to the gym. Yet another benefit of being united again! We have a system at the gym: she pushes me to exercise on the treadmill and I do the same for her with weights. What a win win situation!

Hello friends and well wishers. Following is a post that Stuti herself wrote last night. Just by the general tone of the post it is evident how excited she is to see what God has in store for us both. A thankful and proud dad!
NAMASTE! Oh what day(s) it has been!! We cannot believe it has already been a week since Stuti made the BIG move to India! We both haven't lifted a finger since we got here for we are both, quite literally, treated like royalty! Wow, we are so blessed. Ever since we reunited, the words from Josh Wilson's song 'Before the Morning' has been on our minds, "the pain that you've been feeling, it can't compare to the joy that is coming." While we realize those words are talking about the joy and happiness we will feel once we reach our ultimate home in Heaven, those words are so very much comparable to the "pain" we have both felt the past 2 years. Our "pain" led us to this new, exciting phase of our lives!! We have finally been led to where God wants us to be! We fully believe that India is where He has the rest of His plans for us!
You may have noticed that we haven't posted much since our move to India, but that is because we have been waiting for the renovations of our new humble abode to get finished. The remodeling was completed this morning and we have gotten moved in! As we will most definitely continue to post updates, we wanted every one of our friends to know, we have been welcomed home with nothing but open arms, and we constantly keep having blessing upon blessings given to us! Enjoy this picture of Stuti having a celebratory strawberry kiwi martini! 🍸🍷

" So what do we say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son but delivered Him up for us, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?" (Romans 8: 31,32)
Stuti is about to start a new chapter in her life and I am blessed to be a part (small or big) of it by the grace of Almighty. Please continue to keep her in prayers that our God who has brought her thus far would never leave nor forsake her, Amen!

This verse opened up today for me after I had presented my supplication to God today. As promised I share with you:

Psalm 5: 11-12
(Oh Lord!)
Let all who take refuge in You rejoice;
Let them shout for joy forever;
And may You spread a cover over them;
And those who love Your name
Will exult in You
For you will bless the righteous man, Oh Lord!
You will surround him with favor as with a shield.
Amen!

In the past few days, I have tried sincerely to repent, and then bring out my supplication to God in prayers. I then have opened His Word and whatever verse my eyes fell upon, I have accepted as His guidance to me. I will share the verse with you all to the best of my ability. This was today:

Psalm 121: 2-5
My help comes from The Lord
He will not let your foot slip
He who keeps you will not sleep
Behold, Israel's keeper
Will neither slumber nor sleep
The Lord is your keeper
He is your shade at your right hand.
Amen!

Psalm 34: 7-10
The angel of God encamps
around those who fear Him and He delivers them
Taste and see that The Lord is good
Blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him
Fear God you who are His saints
For there is no lack with those who fear Him
The young lions can hunger and starve
But those who seek The Lord will not lack anything.
Amen!

Psalm 46: 1-3
God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging.
Amen!

We never thought this day would come! Even after spending yesterday in the Emergency Room, Stuti independently drove herself to work today!! Now that she will start driving more and more, I sincerely ask you to keep her in your prayers so that she will always be safe behind the wheel

What a morning has it been! Stuti woke up with severe pain in the right side of her abdomen. We had to taker her to the emergency room! 5 hours, CT scan and blood tests later now she has been diagnosed with stones in the gall bladder. While there she developed allergic reaction to the contrast given to her for the CT scan. But she is stable and back home. Please all of you who love her pray to the Almighty that he gives her physical, emotional and mental comfort through this very hard time that she is going through. She needs His Supernatural healing intervention. Please join your hands and hearts with us. God bless you all!
