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 ...

Thinking About Eve

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 ...
