Positive Thinking

Image
Dear no readers at all, Today is the day to think about positive thinking.... Let's remember Jabez's prayer. Lord that you would bless me indeed. And enlarge my borders. That your hand would be with me. That you'll keep me from evil. So I won't cause you pain. As I read from Bruce Wilkinson's book, he wrote that the very name Jabez means "PAIN". Such a negative name to give it to a baby! But the man named Pain is praying all positive. He seems to not believe in the reason why he should be named Pain and why he shouldn't ask for God's goodness on his life. These days when a small event shakes people's self esteem, praying that way when your name itself is "Pain" is quiet a feat! So let us all remember, that whatsoever we might be going through or feeling through, we can always pray for HIS blessings on our lives.

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".

REALIZE - 21 November

Hey there!      Its a beautiful day to be alive. And I am grateful to God for a quiet mind and a rested soul. I just saw that my previous post was published last year. And it has been an year that I blogged. So I think I owe my apology to God first, to myself and I regret how much HIS work got affected because of me. Why Did I Stop Blogging Well, I started blogging because I got that idea from a person and it went well with my calling. God called me for writing and I feel the pleasure of God when I write. But I stopped blogging for worldly reasons. I want to honestly confess. I banked on the less readership and the less impact with my writing.   This is wrong because its not MY writing that should have an impact but its God. If HE should bless it, HE would bless it. I should simply trust him and keep carrying HIS zeal in my heart. Please forgive me Lord. Amen. I haven't been disciplined and I didn't properly plan or think of the vision.  ...

The Message

The Message    Eugene Peterson    Well It was introduced to me by one of my uncles.   Trust me, It is an awesome book. A great paraphrased version of The Bible. I know that many at times we tend to not understand, or feel threatened by few old testament scriptures. There have been days when I'd suddenly close my Bible seeing the harsh prophesies. And there have been days when the scripture wasn't clear and not understandable. And the solution lies in this " The Message by Eugene Peterson" . My uncle says, " Somehow I feel lot spiritual when I read It". And this has been my experience too. One section from Psalms which I read recently is this : 12  How blessed the man you train, God, the woman you instruct in your Word,  13  Providing a circle of quiet within the clamor of evil, while a jail is being built for the wicked.  14  God will never walk away from his people, never desert his precious peo...

Way to Go and to Be

Lord please show me the way Or I can't face another day, Else take my life, end it with a knife, I'll be happy to see you, Will enjoy the paradise' view. Or even in your silence  Make mt ears keen, on you only to lean To hear your still silent voice This is my heart felt choice. And fill me with your spirit and  Give me a heart of lion, To soar courageously till I reach zion But I know that you're always there And that you always care.

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 ...
