Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keppeth the law, happy is he. Prverbs 29:18

On the 17th I cam from Kenya to Germany. 11 hour flight through Zanzibar to Frankfurt. Its really interesting feeling to be back in cold country and breethe fresh & cool air, and feel your body freezing sometimes. I already forgot the feeling of freezing.

God has been so merciful to me, all the time when I was in Africa. He protected me from all harm. I didnt got any diseases no snake bites, no rubberies, no big accidents. One day before leaving Africa I visited one very sick lady at her home. I was taken there with the motorbike. And I fell from the motorbike 2 times. The second time was bit worse, the driver wasnt very careful and find one hole and stucked in so that I fell on the side and burned my feet from one part of the motorbike. Anyway I am alive, and God has still purpose for me to fulfil.

"But now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, that he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not, for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.

When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee; when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee." Isaiah 43:1,2

News From Bethesda Restoration Ministries

This is Hamisi. He is 12 years old.He is paralyzed from his chest to the feet. This happened when he fell down from a tree a year ago while hunting birds. His mother brought him to us one morning and what we saw was very sad. Hamisi has four big bed sores and one of the sores is on the spine and is so deep that you can see the spinal cord. This is the pictureon the left but is abit dark that you cannot easily see the spine through the hole.

By God´s grace we have been applying simple natural remedies like aloe vera with carrots and also massaging his legs for a better circualtion. The picture that you now see shows some great improvement as all the sores are getting abit smaller. It was not an easy situation to see the those big sores at the beginnning but through prayer,the Lord has strengthened us to minister to this poor boy.Please remember him in your prayers and we will update you of his condition.We are still continuing with the treatments and should the Lord impress you to give suggestions,we would be grateful.

'Have I not commanded thee? Be strong and of good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.' Joshua 1:9
Thanks to God I had a good journey to Mombasa despite that my all cash and bankcards were stolen in Madrid (I still had my passport and I could continue travel) and my suitcase arrived some days later (I had a very short time to change the plane in Cairo, so my suitcase didnt managed to the next plane). As I arrived the air was at first very strange humid and hard to breathe, but I got used to. I was most warmly welkommed at the airport and at the center.
Already next day we spent wonderful Sabbath day at Indian ocean.
Strange to think that its so hot all the time here and in Estonia its cold, and winter.
I have been for now councelling different ladies with their health complains. Its just amaizing feeling to introduce to those ladies 8 health laws, and pray with them for receiving strength and courage from God to implement the health laws in their life. Also we introduce to them natural remedies like garlic, turmerik, cayenne pepper, hydrotherapy, massage, exercises for the whole body. So later they are coming back and giving report how are the things proceiding and how do they feel after changing their habits. People are really willing to listen and try out. Many havent never heard that its possible to live more healthier and in this way get rid of their sicknesses. In many cases people are very poor to buy food and clean water, so they eat all the time the same food like Ugali (made from corn) and often drink water even from the river. Many children and grownups have health conditions like Astma becouse of bad hygiene and dusty air. In general people are easygoing and kind, having a lots of time to wait patiently when comes their turn to receive the health councel....I admire that.
This area where I stay is noisy all they long already at four in the morning the life starts with loud music.
I am just so much fond of this fresh fruits that we are eating here, papayas, mangos, avocados, passion fruits, coconuts ect. And just so surprised that locals are rarely eating their treasures like raw fruits and vegetables...they dont realise the precious value of them. Its written in the Bible: 'And to every beast of the earth, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.' Genesis 1:30
Many people cant afford buying Bibles and many dont know how to read. Usually I have been translated from English to Swahili by the local medical workers.
On Sunday we had outreach in one village...people came and we received lots of help through natural therapies and remedies. Straight after finishing it started to rain, and when we started to drive car driver just couldnt keep the car on the slippery clay road...and started to drive on the side of the road, sometimes car stucked so much in the pit that the help was needed, we prayed a lot, and I knew God had everything under control. Car driver was seemingly upset, but when we got out, he agreed that it should have been God who helped.

Medical missionary work experiences in Kenya

Long journey

Tomorrow I will lieve my hometown for some time to Kenya (Mombassa) as a medical missionary for getting busy with councelling people about health issues (will teach hydrotherapy, massage, herbs, vegan food preparation ect.)

My trip starts from Elva continuing to Tallinn, Copenhagen, Madrid, Cairo, Nairobi, Mombassa.

My plan was before to go to Venezuela to have a practise at health center (I booked even ticket), but then very suddenly I got call from Kenya, they urgently needed medical missionary...I was like speechless...and first I sayed no, but then I started to think what could I do. Then I remembered that I received recently an email about the change in flight Madrid Caracas timetable (only 30 minutes). So I called and asked if they could cancel the flight, they sayed they will reply if they can. Again I started to think about so many changes and decided not to cancel, I wrote to the airline company that I changed my mind. After half an hour I received mail : Your flight is cancelled!! Thats it! It was turning point to complately another direction. I took in touch with E. from Kenya and announced that I can still come...that was a surprise for them in Kenya, and actually they have been praying like for month that somebody could come and work there...Its just one miracle from God...and I am happy that I can be useful and give my helping hand there where it is also needed! I praise God for this opportunity!

Happy people

Happy people rarely think about happiness. They are too busy losing their lives in service for others.

There is no greater love than this - that a man should lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13

Self-denial

We need encouragement as much as crops need rain. After we have received it, we are in position to dish it out to others.

"You are a shield around me, O Lord; my glorious One, who lifts up my head. To the Lord I cry aloud, and He answers me from his holy hill." Psalm 3:3,4

The time is passing by faster than before and what is the goal in life...is to serve God and others...from this you can get life of good quality. Ofcourse you can serve others in many ways, but what thinks & feels your heart (frontal lobe). To think only on yourself and how to get profit and the things you need, then you will not be able to finish the list, becouse there comes so many things you still WANT. And WANT is selfishness and selfishness is like a leprosy. In nowday's sociaty usual thinking is to be as good as neighbour and even better, this competition kills people mentally, morally, physically.

"Lands and goods and wordly occupations engross the mind, and things of eternal interest receive hardly a passing notice." GC 464 (E.G.W)

Self-denial is not a popular word, it usually goes together with loosers. But Jesus denied himself when He came to this earth and died for us. Its a REAL sacrifice and He didnt loose but He won the battle!!! Are we ready to exercise self-denial and win the battle with self? The best thing is to humble our hearts to God and confess our sins, and ask for forgivness and forgive ... you will see how drastically your life will take new turn...

Honey

Most nutritionists regard honey as a more favorable sweet than the refined sugars. Sometimes the price of honey is high. There is one way to cut the price, - move to the country and keep your own bees.

The almost universal craving for sweets, especially in children, best proves that there is a true need for them in the human system. The two invert sugars that honey contains (75 % in most grades) have many advantages as food substances. Ordinary sugar, also starch, must undergo digestion, a process that changes them into simple sugars the same as, or similar to, those found in honey. The sugar of honey, therefore, may be considered as predigested; hence the use of honey takes a load of work off the stomach and pancreas.

Dr. Edinburg says: "In heard weakness I have found honey to have a marked effect in reviving the heart action and keeping patients alive. I had further evidence of this in a recent case of pneumonia. The patient consumed two pounds of honey during illness; there was an ealrly crisis, with no subsequent rise of temperature and an exceptionally good pulse. I suggest that honey should be given for general physical repair, and above all, for heart failure."

Dr. Beck declares that during his nearly half century of medical practice he has met many suprisingly energetic folk of advanced age with remarkably healthy complexions. In taking their histories, the report of a liberal daily dose of honey was often a part of the story.

Many nervous states can be attributed to excessive sugar consumption. Our swift modern life requires rapid metabolism to create and to replace the much-needed physical and mental energy. Simple sugar can supply this need much better than can the ordinary refined products, which are not only hard to digest, but tend to cause such ills as gastric ulcer, renal diseases, and diabetes. Dr. Beck states that sugar is just as habit-forming as narcotics, and its use, misuse, and abuse, a modern nutritional disaster. Viewing the many channels through which we find refined sugar getting into alimentary canal, such as candy, ice cream, soft drinks, syrups, pastry, jams and jellies, besides the sugar bowl, it is not hard to believe.

Sugar substitutes

Some people who crave sweets and realize their harmfulness, or perhaps have disabled the pancreas and so cannot use them, and have not learned to re-educate their appetites, turn to sugar substitutes as a way out of their dilemma. Such a course is not safe.

There are a number of products on the market which are used in the place of sugars, but they are harmful to the digestive tract and should not be used. Among these are saccharin, dulcin, and glucin. These sweeteners are not allowed to be used in food products.

Saccharin belongs to the great family of coal tar products, many of which are active heart poisons, hence it is not surprising that careful observation has shown it to be a highly injurious drug. Under its influence the heart's action is lessened in vigor and its continued use may give rise to serious injury.

The re-education of our taste desires is easier than many people think. It begins by securing a knowledge of that which is good for the health of the body. It is then followed by a balanced ration of good food which in time becomes so satisfying that the appetite is satisfied without the former usual amounts of sweet foods. From that point forward the interest in concentrated sweets declines until, with many people, they cease to be sources of special temptation; the desire for them has been superseded by desires for better foods.
