Divine Providence

This is a tree near my house. Its a great reminder of HIS Divine Providence.
Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, 29 yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. Mathew 6:28

Satification Guaranteed!!!

Jesus is the reward of christianity. Seeing Him in His full Glory is what we should long and desire for. St. Augstine asks, will you take Heaven minus Jesus. Jesus makes heaven, heaven. Let our desire to see Jesus increase day by day. When we see Him [He will] be marveled at and admired (2 thes 1:10 AMP) by us.
Lets say with the psalmist, "As for me, I will continue beholding Your face in righteousness; I shall be fully satisfied". Thanks for the gift of dissatisfaction, because dissatisfaction in this earth makes us realize that only His Face can satify us. Amen.

YOUR EYES MAKE YOU WALK!!

Life has been like walking on water for me for the past one year. Walking on water means walking in an unstable platform. Water under your feet keeps moving. Its not stable.
Sometimes life seems so unstable as it was for peter. Peter step out of his boat and started walking on water and guess what he succeeded. Do you know how. It was not based on strength of his legs or some great strategy that he used. His walk was based on where he fixed his eyes. His eyes helped him to walk on water. Where was his eyes fixed on. His eyes were fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. When he took his eyes off Jesus, he began to sink.
Whenever our eyes are fixed on Jesus, walking in a unstable world would be easy. But once you take your eyes off Jesus, you can sense you heart sinking. Fear comes in and takes the throne. A sense of hopelessness comes in. Frustration, anger, and anxiety take their position. I have found this very true in my life. The minute I adjust my lens of my heart and start focusing on Jesus, Fear moves out as Faith walks in. I have hope, because I know where my help comes from. I am learning to fix my eyes on Jesus alone. Some times I fail, but he stretches out His hand and makes me walk again.
Remember your walk is powered based on where your eyes are Fixed.
YOUR EYES MAKE YOU WALK!!

Approachable Jesus

By this time a lot of men and women of doubtful reputation were hanging around Jesus, listening intently. (Luke 15:1, the Msg)
NOW THE tax collectors and [notorious and [a]especially wicked] sinners were all coming near to [Jesus] to listen to Him. (Luke 15:1, Amplified)

The verse above fascinates me and I have been thinking about it for a while. “A lot of men and women of doubtful reputation were hanging around Jesus”. Isn’t this text interesting? It clearly explains how approachable Jesus was. Sinners were coming nigh to him, to hear him. He was normal, friendly, caring and non-condemning. His approachableness astounds me. Some of his names tell us how approachable he was.

He is called Friend, Brother, and Father. No one is afraid of these people. A friend is always approachable. No planning is required to meet a brother. A father always cares and is always approachable.
That’s how you can come to Jesus. Just as you come to your friend, brother and Father.

But the sad thing in church today is that we have only got teachers, pastors and preachers rather than friend, brother and father. Though I respect those titles, I value relationships. Give people a relationship and then they will hear us. Let us be more approachable to the unsaved one around us. What do you say?

New Creation!!!






This is a tree near our office. During lenten season, it shed all its old leaves and gave birth to new ones. This is what happens to us when we are in christ. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! Isn't this the message from the tree.
