INSIDE-OUT

According to behaviorism, human beings are conditioned to act according to external stimuli.
But as Christians, we should be lead by the Spirit and act according to " Spirit Conditioning".

Dear Judas, with love

It takes a Judas iscariot to betray. Anyone could have handed over Christ! But it takes only Judas to betray, One among the twelve, he must have seen the lame walk, The blind see, the deaf hear and the dead raised to life. The one who felt the love of Christ and participated in the 'first communion ever' . And betrayed Christ with a loving kiss! It takes a Brutus to stab Ceaser, A loved and trusted Delilah to chop Samson's hair, And A David to slay Uriah. A barking donkey or a braying dog can do no harm. It's the ones closest to our hearts that can draw a sword into it. The only bright side of this is that we've had the courage , Courage to be vulnerable enough and love someone so bad that they could bruise us this immensely. Courage? When I hear this I'm reminded of "Courage the cowardly fool".

No brains needed...only heart, faith and love

This is an excerpt from the time I went to tenali. Down here in Tenali, Attending a church that my aunt used to attend. Women outnumber men ( this at least proves that most men aren't hypocrites ) The women here sing, according to their inspiration, each one a different song. No tempo, no tune, no melody, no nothing! A braying donkey win a competition with these people here. Beethoven would commit suicide twice. A little kid on a rustic drum playing the same beat for every song which obviously doesn't go with the song, people clapping hands with a don't care syndrome for basic rhythm is all you can find. BUT you know what? ( and this but makes all the difference of course ) God blessed these people with himself. You could sense the presence of God in this place. He rejoices even over their ignorance be it in terms of intellect or music... His measuring scales are deeper and wider than we can even comprehend. He sees the heart, he understands humane limitations ...

My Testimony (Briefly)

Saved by Grace, Called to Love  Hey there, Elora here!  Here's how I got into a personal relationship with God.  If you are new to this concept - do comment below, and I would be glad to help you understand the jazz around this topic.  So, going back to my story...  I grew up in Church going, Sunday honoring, family. I have memories of my childhood where my grandma would tell me and my brother stories from the Bible. Stories of Abraham, Samuel, Samson, Daniel, and so on... (honestly, I didn't like Abraham at all, he was ready to kill his son, and I would imagine myself in Isaac's place sometime). I grew up going to Sunday School and learning that if we confess our sins, Jesus would forgive me.  One Saturday evening, my heart was getting heavier. I now know that it was the Holy Spirit God who had filled my heart with such an awareness of my sinful state. I was 11 years old when this happened. I rushed to my mom and said, "mom, I need God, I need to change." ...
