Live Love Life

James 1:16 - 18 (NIV version)  "Don't be deceived, my brothers. Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. He chose to give us birth through the word of truth that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created." Verses 16 to 18 have multiple facets to them. They explain various concepts in a go.  An Alert Don't be deceived, my dear brothers. Mr. James started his paragraph with an alert about what we receive in life. He goes on to explain why he is asking his people to be alert. We are often deceived by the desires of our hearts. We know that the heart is deceitful of all and whatever the heart says, we do it. Whatever our eyes want, we pursue and try to get it. So let's be reminded of the difference between what we want and what God gives to us.  A Fact Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the father of heavenly lights.   All that we have...

Eve - Her life, journey  When we start off reading about Eve, the story sounds cliched (no offense - I'm referring to how many times the beginning story is read and preached about!).  The perfect woman saw how imperfect she could be when God's not around.  Eve Saw the Before & After The first lady saw the before and after version of the perfect earth. More or less, she must think it was solely her responsibility to have the earth totally change in front of her own eyes. She not only crossed a line herself but also dragged Adam into it.  We need to remember here that Eve was created to provide a suitable helper for Adam. But the way she chose to help him made him the ultimate breadwinner of the family. Also, from the helper (an exact equal), she got demoted to being ruled by her husband.  My mind is going tangent here..as I want to discuss a lot of things about her, but let's just discuss how awesome she handled it all.  Handling it, Well!  Knowing ...

Anxiety, as one may have it, is closely depicted in this picture. But I should say this is the faintest representation of what's happening inside.    You don't have to guess it, I am obviously anxious, unable to sleep, and constantly on edge - the famous flight or fight response as they call it. Over analyzing every situation and drawing all the possible outcomes of an event in a fraction of a second and wanting to type it! All this aptly define my condition at the moment. I usually feel this the exact night before my big exam. I screwed all my important exams with this dear anxious brain of mine. I have thrown years of preparation down the drain with this uncontrollable brain. When I am anxious, I touch my face, and that gives me these acne marks - which are a proof of my state.    So, sunken eyes, black spots over the face, oil drooling down the cheek, and brain racing so many horses that it ceases to think. This is how I define anxiety.  Imagine standin...

Simplest Introduction To My Dad We (me and my brother) grew up in a Christian family, as in my mom was a believer. She bought us up in Sunday school and with Christian values. My dad was okay with going to church. He used to attend the church and allow us to choose if we wanted to follow Christ. But initially, he never liked Christians. He felt Christians were hypocrites and the pastors were the head of that department. He believed that there was God, but didn't know Him personally. God Change Lives! So one day, he thought for himself, that if there really is a God, he would see a change! A change that he said was that which would transform him to be a better person internally and externally. My dad was a man of morals and integrity, but this, in my opinion, was his internal quest that in God's sight, he wasn't good enough. Then he told me that he decided he would find out for himself if there really was a god, He'd bring in him the holy transformation. So ...

2 views is all that I have for my present posts. (those are mine, I viewed them twice to see how the formatting looked). Here I am writing to IMPACT the WORLD with zero readers and there you are not even trying to find posts with incredible messages. Sarcasm apart, today it is not discouraging to not have readers. Today it's encouraging to be able to write with a peaceful mind, a comforted heart, and a rested body. Not Discouraged At All - Naaha!  Woke up to a beautiful winter morning and pleasant light through the window. And though I have innumerable things that I can be grateful for. Thank you, Lord, for all the good people in my life. Thank you for those who love me. Thank you for the good health and financial security. Thank you for the beautiful weather. Thank you for all your providence. Thank you for being the God of my life. Thank you for the healing and miracles. Thank you for all the people who get the bad side of me, I get to repent and correct myself. ...

Hey there! Are you discouraged? So am I! Well, in the world of all pop and success. Let us accept that there are days when we feel discouraged, down, and depressed. I too have those days, when I question everything I do when I feel my work isn't enough. When I don't feel I am good enough for anything in particular. When nothing seems to change or work out. BUT  Our God is a God of ALL times. If we are discouraged we must go to HIM and tell him that we are discouraged. AND We should acknowledge HIS sovereignty over our situation and seek HIS help to deal with, endure and hopefully get out of these discouraging situations. WHY? Because there are times that God allows discouragement to shape us - Joseph & David are an example. And if Satan discourages us, HE allows it too! - Job is an example. So we must remember this verse " all things work for good to those who love that Lord." My Plea I encourage you to fill your mind with positive though...
