I live in my own house in Rawalpindi, Punjab. Pakistan.alone with a blind brother who is 75 . I feel lonely I would appreciate it if some pastors or someone could visit me each week for counselling. There is no such facility in Pakistqan, nothing for the elders. I have no pension to survive on. yes my brother Thomas gets about $105 per month. as he had served the Govt. Education school as a braille teacher. ( worked for 23 yrs in the Canadian Embassy and retired in1992. What money I got from there I built me a house , a shelter for us two.in our old age. I am a widower. My wife died 7 yrs ago. I am diabetic.
Dear Jesus,
Please come into my heart right now. Be my Lord and my Savior. I believe that you died on the cross for the remission of my sins. I believe that you rose from the dead to give me new life. Please Lord forgive me of all my sins. Wash me clean Lord. Please make your home in me with the Father and with His Holy Spirit. Baptize me in the Holy Spirit too Lord and empower me to live for you. Teach me to live for you all the days of my life. I love you Jesus. Thank you! Amen
Brother if you prayed this prayer and genuinely meant it then you are now born-again of the Spirt and you belong to Jesus. You are a child of the living God YHWH. Please get your hands on a Bible (or find one online) and allow God's Word to renew you and transform your mind daily into the Image of Jesus, God's Son. He will fill you with joy, peace, and hope like you have never before experienced. God will comfort you and teach you all that you need to know through His Word and through the fellowship of His Holy Spirit. The NIV version would be easiest for you to understand. Start reading in the New Testament Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John). I suggest reading Mark and John first.
Find a church you can attend regularly. A Pentecostal or non-denominational church would be best my brother!

I find it interesting that you worked in the Canadian embassy as I am Canadian.
To invite Jesus into your heart you only have have to believe that He is the son of God, died on the cross carrying our sins, was raised from the dead, and that you are a sinner (imperfect person), you need His help, and ask him to be your Lord and Saviour. There are forms of the "sinners prayer" on the internet, but the exact words are not important - it is what is in your heart that is.
I will pray for your needs to be filled. Joan
I have a question about Pakistan. I think I have heard that it against the law to try to convert people. Is that true? I hope it is not true. Or are you already a Christian?
I don't know what Christian missions there may be in Rawalpindi, but if anyone has missionaries, the Mormons will. Google Latter Day Saints and Rawalpindi. Mormons are very good about reaching out to help others.
If you want to know Jesus, there is a children's song that always touches my heart. It's called "Jesus Loves me." Look for it on Youtube.
Please tell us more about your life, and we will be your distant friends.
