We are the world. We are the children. We are the ones who make a brighter day with everything we think, say or do.

Dearest God,
I thank you for everything you have blessed us with. Thank you for being our caring and loving God. Thank you for my precious children, Albert and Alfred. Please be in them and with them at all times, guiding them with your wisdom and please protect them. Please reunite us soon.
Amen.

Dearest Alfred and Albert,
God bless you.
Your mommy's love, prayers and blessings are always with you.
Please take good care of yourself and your twin brother.

I like this song - We are the world.
Click to hear Song - We are the world

I heard this song when I was growing up. I used to sing this song to you at our New Jersey Plainsboro home sweet home, when you were small. You loved hearing it too and would sing along.

Below are a few lines from the song.
We are the world. We are the children. We are the ones who make a brighter day so lets start giving.
There is a choice we are making. We are saving our own lives.
It is true we make a better day. Just you and me.

You, as children, can give to the world your handsome smiles, your kindness, your good character, your knowledge.
Smile, and the world smiles with you.

I thank Lionel Richie and late Michael Jackson for their beautiful song. It truly reveals their beautiful heart, beautiful spirit and beautiful inner being. I really thank all the composers of the beautiful songs and hymns because these songs always lift me up and brighten my day.

I respect and like the 11th President of India, the Honorable President APJ Abdul Kalam, a truly good person - a good student, a good scientist, a good person with good values. When you were deceptively separated from me, I had written letters to many people in authority in India requesting them to please reunite me with my precious children, both of you. President Abdul Kalam is one of the persons, who did respond to me. His office even forwarded my letter to the Chief Minister of Kerala, the state were you were abducted to in India. I thank President Abdul Kalam so much for his kindness.

True story - Designing a Fighter Jet

I beleive in the inspiring speech by Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam

If each one of us do our part in being good, living with good moral values, we will do good for the whole world. We truly become the world. We truly become the children of God. How happy God will be to see a happy world with happy children.

The only person we have control in our life is ourselves. I  insist in watching out for evil, because my life was suddenly and deceptively ruined, as I did not recognize evil on time. I was lucky to be always surrounded by good people all my life, so I did not expect deception and evil from anyone. God has carried and cared for me lovingly and beautifully and allowed me to come across the best of people in my journey through the storm. I do not want you to be trapped or taken by surprise by evil, like your mother. I did not even have a step mother, step brother or step sister to watch out for, like you do now. I fear for your safety and well being. Hence, you have to take care of yourself and your twin brother. Be each others best friend and moral guide for good values and wisdom. God is always in you and around you taking good care of you.

I believe, hope and wish the authorities in US and India would come together as one and grant us basic human rights, the rights of a mother and her children to be reunited, to end the immense and long suffering pain of separation that we continue to suffer for more than 6 years, due to the deceptive action of the abductor parent.

The way we live our life is our choice and we make our choice as per the principle of God.

I have so many stories to tell you when we get reunited of how God has been such an adorable and loving Heavenly Father to me. I will tell you of how God sent the best people who have worked extremely hard to help me in every step of this long journey to be reunited with you.

I love you and will always love you. I will never ever give up on you.

You are my world, my precious children, Albert and Alfred.

May God bless my you both immensely.

With lots of love, prayers and blessings,
Your loving mommy,
Bindu Philips

Focus on God, not the hungry lions.

Dearest God,
Thank you for everything you have given us. Thank you for being beside us always. Please bless my children with peace, happiness, good health and good character. Thank you for guiding and guarding my precious children.
Amen.

Dearest Albert and Alfred,
May God's favor and grace be with you always.
May God reunite us as soon as possible.
 

I am sure you will be remembering the story of Daniel in the lions den from your children's bible that we used to read. You can find the story of Daniel in the pit of lions in chapter 6 in the book of Daniel in the Holy Bible.

Click here for a recap of Daniel in the pit of lions

I wonder how Daniel felt when he was thrown into the pit of lions. I wonder if he felt a little frightened momentarily in the beginning as soon as he was thrown into the pit of hungry lions. However, I am sure he was at peace later, amidst the lions, because he focused on God and not the lions.

Darius, the king lost his appetite and sleep knowing that his friend Daniel had been thrown into a pit of hungry lions. He had tried his best to find some way to save Daniel from being thrown into the pit of lions. Let me quote the verses of the Holy Bible about what happened early next morning.

Daniel 6: 19-23
19 At dawn the king got up and hurried to the pit. 20 When he got there, he called out anxiously, “Daniel, servant of the living God! Was the God you serve so loyally able to save you from the lions?”
21 Daniel answered, “May Your Majesty live forever! 22 God sent his angel to shut the mouths of the lions so that they would not hurt me. He did this because he knew that I was innocent and because I have not wronged you, Your Majesty.”
23 The king was overjoyed and gave orders for Daniel to be pulled up out of the pit. So they pulled him up and saw that he had not been hurt at all, for he trusted God.

We can see from these verses that Daniel was not frightened even when he was in the pit of hungry lions because he trusted God. God not only saved Daniel from the lions because Daniel was innocent but also gave Daniel peace that comes from God even in the midst of lions. I love, honor and respect God, our Heavenly Father.

I am so thankful to the authors of the Holy Bible and the Holy Books for writing these true stories. I am so thankful to my parents and school teachers who taught me these stories. I am so thankful to God because I know if God could save Daniel from the lions pit, if God could help Joseph (from the Old Testament), who was betrayed by his step-brothers and many many people, God will surely help you and me. I have faith and trust that God will reunite us and pay back in abundance the years we lost with each other.

Nobody on the surface of this earth is going to be untouched by problems and issues. The degree to which the problems hit them may vary. Sometimes we are deceptively hit by major problems, which took us by surprise and by no fault of ours. However, we face these problems just like Daniel, looking up to our God, our heavenly Father. We have to focus only on God, and not on the evil actions by evil people, because evil people think they are destroying the innocent and do not realize they are destroying only themselves in the process. God will let the innocent suffer at the hands of evil for a short time, because in the process He is making the innocent stronger with His gentle guidance. God will send good people to help and protect the innocent. God will be faithful to you, if you are faithful to God and obey His commandments and simply refuse to do wrong because you love God more. You have to build a bond with God, involve Him in everything you do, seek His blessings and advice in everything you do. If you truly love God, you will live a life according to His principles and simply refuse to do wrong.

We need to do our best in every situation in our life and God will surely do the rest.

Remember the golden rule - "Do to others what you would like them to do to you."
Never ever hurt anyone or hate anyone. If a person hurts someone, the only person they are really harming is themselves. However, if anyone hurts you, you don't hurt them back. You report it to your teacher or an authority who has good moral values themselves.

Always love our God and be obedient to Him. Live your life with faith. God will reunite us.

I love you and will always love you.

May God bless my precious children, Albert and Alfred.

With lots of love, prayers and blessings,
Your loving mommy,
Bindu Philips

God will make a way.

Dear God,
Thank you for being our God, our Heavenly Father. Thank you for being beside us always, in our good times and especially in our bad times. Just knowing that you are beside us gives us the strength to face the storms of life. Thank you for your loving kindness and your grace. Please bless my precious children, my handsome heroes and please be with them at all times.
Amen.

Dear Alfred and Albert,
May God bless you. Your mommy's blessings are always with you.

I hope you are doing well. Please take good care of your health. Eat a lot of vegetables and fruits, proteins, calcium and carbs. Exercise well and take part in sports. It is your growing age now.

I meet some of your classmates sometimes. They are so sweet to me and ask me about you and refer to me as Albert and Alfred's mom. I was so touched when your classmates mom told me that her twin boys, your classmates, told her that she has to do something to help me be reunited with my children, both of you. I felt so warm with their kind and compassionate love for you and me. May God bless your classmates.

Six years ago, when our lives turned into a nightmare, this is one of the songs I came across and would sing - God will make a way.

Song - God will make a way where there seems to be no way

For some reason, hymns and God songs always eased the pain of separation from you and help me believe that God will reunite you and me. My parents and my school teachers taught me a lot of hymns. These hymns that I learnt in my totally happy days, calmed me when the storms hit me all of a sudden. I also learnt news songs. I sing when I drive. I feel beautiful nature joins in with me. I am so thankful to my parents and school teachers, who empowered me with good songs and good stories from the Holy Bible, Holy Books and story books. I am very thankful to my parents and teachers who taught me and instilled in me good moral principles as a child.

My precious children, I want you to learn good habits, good moral values, in line with the principles of God, as a child so when you grow older it will already be your nature, it will come to you automatically. My parents and my school teachers saw that we were disciplined, even in little things.
That is most important. If you are true to God, true to yourself, you will refuse to do wrong even in the little things. For example, if a child gets away with doing small things wrong and faces no consequences and he does not know that doing bad is wrong and eventually it will only hurt the child himself, he will then do a little more bigger thing wrong. If he keeps getting away, then one day he will do something big wrong and will get caught eventually. It is the law of nature. You reap what you sow. However, if this same child refuses to do even the littlest thing wrong, he will never even think of doing big things wrong. This is self control. This child will grow up to be a person with peace and will radiate beauty from within.

We need to empower ourselves with God's word and good hymns and good songs, because when the sudden unexpected storms hit us so hard, we are ready to face our storms with God by our side, guiding us and God's principals we learnt when all is well, will suddenly unfold before us with their true meaning and we shall pass every test with God's help and His principles will give us the strength and peace we need to face the storm.

My sweethearts that is why your mommy wants you to know that your good character is really very important. This proverb says it all.

When wealth is lost, nothing is lost.
When health is lost, something is lost.
When character is lost, everything is lost.

Everybody in this world is a child of God, our Heavenly Father. Never ever hurt anyone. That does not mean you have to suffer due to the actions of evil people. Report evil to the authorities concerned. God and the authorities in charge, will right the wrongs and grant justice. The more the evil people hurt the innocent, the more God will help the innocent, who honor his principles and refuse to do wrong. Live a life doing only good for mankind, yourself and for beautiful nature. Be smart and do not let evil people take advantage of your innocence or bully you to do wrong. Always know you are accountable to God and yourself for every thing you think, say or do.

I love you and will always love.

God bless you.

With lots of love, prayers and blessings,
Your loving mommy,
Bindu Philips

Happy Easter to my precious children, Albert and Alfred.

Dearest God,
We love You. We are so happy to be Your children. Thank you for all You are doing for us. Thank You for my precious children, Albert and Alfred. Please bless them immensely, with the wisdom and knowledge that comes only from you. Please be with them every second of their lives, guiding them in Your path, in the path of righteousness and truth and guard them from all evil. Please give them good health and please help them study well. Please help them remember their loving mother was always beside them, loving and caring them, at all times prior to the abduction. I love You, God. Thank you, my Heavenly Father, for being my constant guide, and blessing me with good parents, my precious children and family and friends and good people in authority in US and India. Please bless all Your children, our Heavenly Father, all the people in this world.
Amen.

Dearest Albert and Alfred,
Happy Easter to my handsome heroes. I am longing to see you.

Hope my sweethearts are taking good care of yourself and your brother. I am just so happy you are twins, my precious twins, and will take good care of each other and support each other.

Do you remember on Easter Sundays we went to church.
Do you remember your mommy used to make palappam (a white lace edged pancake) for you on Easter Sunday morning.
Do you remember your mommy used to have Easter Eggs hidden for you in our backyard and you both enjoyed the Easter Egg Hunt.
Do you remember you had Easter bunny marshmallows too.
Do you remember the picture that was taken at the Quaker Bridge Mall with the Easter bunny. You looked absolutely adorable.

When I was a child I loved celebrating Easter too. I went with my family to church so early in the morning before sunrise. After church, my parents took us to the bakery, just opposite to the church, and bought us decorated chocolate Easter eggs that were filled with candy and chocolates. My mother made us palappam too.

My eyes sparkle with joy now and every time I think of you. I love you and will always love you. When I think that you are not with me, I miss you so much and it breaks my heart. However, I know God will reunite you both with me as He is a justice deliverer and He saw the truth and He will see that the truth is revealed to you and we are reunited. Just knowing and trusting that God will help and is guiding my every step, keeps me going and keeps me strong.

Let us rise and shine for our God, our Heavenly Father. Let us make Him so happy and proud that we are His children. We can make God happy, by making choices that are aligned with the God's principles, in every thing we think, do or say. I always pray that God is always beside you and guiding your every step.

Your Bangalore Papa and Mummy sends their love to you and wish you a Happy and Blessed Easter.
Your amma loves you so much.

May God bless my precious children, Alfred and Albert.

With lots of love, prayers and blessings,
Your loving mommy,
Bindu Philips
