It never ceases to amaze me how the Lord uses things to teach about Himself all over the world. In a story today put out by Assist News Service I read of a man by the name of Arvind Khodke who has collected postal stamps since childhood and now at 57 years old, he still collects stamps so he can learn more about Christianity. Here's part of the article...
The idea might seem far-fetched, but he has already collected about 500 stamps depicting pictures of the Holy Family, Jesus, the Blessed Mother, Saint Joseph, Nativity scenes and popes. He also collects cartoons and other pictures on Christianity.
Khodke recalls his first direct interaction with Christianity was through a mission hospital in the central state. He had heard about Christian missionaries being “very charitable, and I myself experienced it in the hospital,” he told UCA News on Dec. 26.
“They really take care of the sick, and there is no better example of Christian charity,” he affirmed. He became “more interested in Christianity” when media began to report increased attacks on Christians in the state.
Please add Arvind to your prayer list and ask the Lord to reveal Himself in even greater ways to Arvind. And you can read more about Arvind and his stamp collecting here.
