While in India during the end of July this year, we were made painfully aware of the condition being faced on a daily basis by the poor. Much of India is dependent on the agricultural sector of the country. With very little or no rain and soaring temperatures, the economic plight of India seems to be getting worse by the day. During the two short weeks I was there, 24 local farmers committed suicide because they could see no way to repay money they had borrowed to buy seed and fertilizer to plant their crops or to provide for their families.
This drought has also caused prices on just about everything to escalate. During a break from classes in the Timothy Leadership Institute, I asked Jessie if he would give me a brief comparison of some of the basic commodities that the average Indian family uses. Here are just a few items so you might have an idea of how hard these price rises have been.
These prices will give you some idea of what most Indians are facing. On the surface this may not seem like much of a jump especially thinking of what has been happening here with our own economy. But when you remember that a day laborer only makes about $200 per year, that's only about $17 per month. This gives us a very different vantage point.
Hope and Help has tried to supplement the food budget for the pastors that we are helping. We used to be able to provide 5 kilos of rice for $3, but now we pay $9 for the same five kilos.
We can learn much from our children as they "grow up." When my daughter took her first mission trip outside the country, I prayed specifically that she would see those to whom she ministered through God's eyes. When they returned, the spiritual leaders who accompanied her gave reports of the poverty and great needs of the people. I thought that was odd, because my daughter had not mentioned that. When I asked her about it, she said what she saw was their joy in the Lord. These people would walk for miles and hours to come to a packed house with standing room only to hear the Word of God. She never even saw the poverty - for the people didn't see themselves that way. I tell you, I learned a lesson about seeing people as God sees them!

If you're in a not good position and have no cash to go out from that point, you would have to take the loan. Because that would help you for sure. I take sba loan every single year and feel myself OK because of this.
