Residents enjoying the Covid 19 lockdown


In a housing society in Worli, Mumbai, some people are enjoying the lockdown.
Maharashtra state has given power to the secretaries of the society to decide if any outsider can enter the irsociety building
In one society  of 280 apartments (flats) in Worli, south Mumbai, the secretary of the society appointed a committee of volunteers. The duties of the committee were as follows:
  • Food supply to the residents including fresh vegetables, Dairy products and other grocery items.

So the committee members did the following
  1. They sourced Vegetables and other produce from sahyadri, Nasik, etc (interior Maharashtra where the farmers grow food ).
  2. Price list is sent via whatsapp to every society member
  3. Society members place the order via whatsapp and make the payment online.
  4. Orders are placed to farmers 
  5. Individual orders are packed in cartons by farmers  with the apartment number labeled on top of the carton.
  6. The boxes are delivered to the society via trucks
  7. Young volunteer boys and girls deliver the cartons to their respective apartments.
  8. Similarly milk cartons/Plastic milk bags are also delivered to the society members.
This way the society members by passed the middlemen, passing on the benefit to farmers 

So the residents of the society are enjoying home delivered fresh food at reasonable prices without going out shopping.

Managing Money shows God, if He can trust us

Unmanaged finances can result in unmanaged life.
God observes how well we manage material things before He showers His spiritual blessings on us.

The Bible says, “If you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else’s property, who will give you property of your own?” (Luke 16:11-12 NIV).

Imagine God as our parent
When we learn to drive and get our brand new driving license, our parents give us a used car to drive. Later on when they feel that we have the confidence and maturity in driving, they may trust us with a new car.

There is a direct connection between:
  • Maturity and money. 
  • Spiritual power and how we handle our  possessions. 
  • God’s blessing in our life and what we do with our money.
