Attending my Christian Science Students Association...
Attending my Christian Science Students Association meeting in New Delhi this past year was a challenge. But how perfectly God's purpose unfolded. I had but to watch His glorious promises come to light.
Our meeting date had been set for Saturday, November 3, 1984, and I planned to leave for New Delhi on November 1 by air. Then, on October 31, we learned of the assassination of our Prime Minister, Mrs. Gandhi. That evening I attended the Wednesday testimony meeting in our branch Church of Christ, Scientist. In preparing for the meeting, the First Reader had chosen most appropriate readings from the Bible and from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. The readings helped me greatly, for rumors of riots and strife in New Delhi were already reaching us.
That night I received phone calls from friends, telling me there would be no flights the next day as the airport was sealed off. But the next morning some other friends kindly took me to the airline office, an hour's drive from the airport. The office turned out to be a place of quietness, despite the speculation that there would be chaos, and I was told that my flight would leave as scheduled.
