"Sahanamu Joope" by Padma Medidi

India

An original Southern Asian style song by Padma Medidi.

Brothers who show forth forbearance

Are the ones to receive glory (x2)

The Lord who was victor over the world

And who went back to heaven

They are worthy of the love

Brothers who show forth forbearance

Are the ones to receive glory

Trials engender patience

Patience withstands examination

Examination develops hope

Those who obey Christ’s command

Will receive perfect patience and peace

Strength of the Spirit, full of happiness

Will be granted liberally

Brothers who show forth forbearance

Are the ones to receive glory

Brothers who show forth forbearance

Are the ones to receive glory

Brothers who show forth forbearance

Are the ones to receive glory

As you with faith and patience

Claim promises you must continue

Your hopes, understanding God’s will

In you there must be patience continually

You should endure rejection

Brothers who show forth forbearance

Are the ones to receive glory (x2)

The Lord who was victor over the world

And who went back to heaven

Brothers who show forth forbearance

Are the ones to receive glory

    Snowy Night’s Prayer

    In Austria, young Amelie lost her headlamp while sledding in the dark, snowy night. After praying for help, she and her family immediately found something even more important—their lost house keys, which would have left them locked out in the freezing cold. Her story shows how God answers prayers in the way we need most, not always the way we expect.

    The Davis’ Indians - Part 2

    After Ovid Elbert Davis died of blackwater fever in 1911 at Mt. Roraima, the Indigenous believers he had taught in British Guiana continued meeting every Sabbath at his grave, singing the hymn he taught them and pleading for another teacher. Fourteen years later, missionaries finally returned, finding more than 130 people still faithful to the commitment Davis recorded before his death. Today, his legacy lives on through the Davis Memorial Hospital in Georgetown and the thriving Adventist communities that grew from his early work.
