Sis Rani's Visit To Calvary Care Home

Yesterday afternoon, I joined Albert P to meet Sis C.P. Jeyarani Roberts whom Sis Jothy introduced to us at her house. This lady from India who dedicated her life to our Lord in 1978 has been running a home of about 25 inmates in Chennai. We were very blessed to listen to her sharing her 27 years of experience serving destitute women, abused young girls, mentally ill (Schizophrenics) women, cancer patients, blind people, physically handicapped, sex workers, HIV-positive women and leprosy people. Her God-given ministry "Hope For The Hopeless International" has the vision to build up the lives of broken-hearted people.

We brought Sis Rani to Calvary Care Home (CCH) after a simple dinner at an Indian restaurant. David and Matthew had gone to tuition, so only John, Paul, Luke, Daniel and Joel were around. At first, the boys were a bit reserved and kept their distance from this stranger. But very soon, they could not resist her invitation to sit closer to her.

One by one they moved towards our visitor who looked gorgeous in her beautiful sari,

and began to feel at ease with her presence. Affectionately called "Amma" (mother in Tamil) by the young inmates in her home in India, Sis Rani indeed showered a lot of motherly love through her graceful smiles, tender voice and encouraging words in Tamil and English.

She shared with us her ministerial work in India and other countries by showing two albums of pictures.

George and Albert who sat aside were admiring our guest whose face was full of God's glory even after spending more than two decades dealing with problematic children. Troubled by a few CCH boys' bad behavior recently, these two father figures seemed to have learnt from the sister in Christ to cast out some of their burdens to Jesus.

Sis Rani requested a praise song from the boys. John led them to sing a title in BM and English. In return, she also sang one in Tamil and explained to us its meaning. It was about how the Lord lifts us up when we are weak.

Next, Sis Rani prayed for the boys individually and prophesied over them.

She kindly did the same to us adults including Joshua who arrived later for his night shift.

I received prophecy for my life and confirmations for certain issues in my heart. Father God, I truly thank You for sending Sis Rani to give hope to the CCH boys and to tell me that You have found back Your daughter who was once deviated.
