A New Day!!

Dear Blog, this morning i woke up anew and afresh. As i entered into a new day, new thoughts captured my mind, i started to see new things around me, things that i overpassed daily but never stopped to observe keenly, i saw things in a different way, indeed in a good way. I pondered what was I doing all these days, never realising the beauty that lies in each and every minute things. I looked around myself and i could see things reciprocating to me. For i minute i stopped and thought what's happening to me but I realised this is the way I am suppose to think, to see the beauty that lies concealed in each and every small thing, for instance, the drops of water falling, the petals of the beautiful flowers in our hall garden though drying up still radiating its beauty, the music that i listen to daily started to show me a deeper meaning, soothing and peaceful and I was overwhelmed with what I actually don't have the answer. I questioned myself why have I never appreciated the small small things God created for me to enjoy. I 'd been counting on the dark side too much that my eyes have failed to see the brighter side of each thing. But now, as I stand and look around with a different perspective, i see things that i've failed to see in the past. My Attitude is what matters to make me a happy person, the way i take things and the way i look at them. Maybe i've been trying too hard to hold on to the past that I've failed to see better things ahead of me. Though I'd been trying to convince myself that what is gone is gone and that need to move on, but a part of me still wasn't ready to give up completely on what i still hold very dear to my heart but all i needed to do is cherish the good times, bury the bitterness and move on for a brighter tomorrow. Though I knew all too well the grace of God, His abundant blessings showered upon me throughout my life, His Help, His Comfort, His Love, I failed to acknowledge them, taking things for granted but now I see that all I can hope for is the Hope in Him, the Future that He has planned for me; from the time i was born till today and henceforth to come, my days are numbered by Him, and now all I want to do is follow the way set for me and reach the destination that He has marked for me. People say that we make our own destiny, but I believe in predestination though at the same time I believe that to get where i m destined to, i need to put effort on my part, just sitting down and waiting for some kind of magic won't help. Each and every small things that has happened both good and bad, happy or sad, joy or sorrow, all happened to mould me and make me into the exact person that I've been destined to. All I can wish for is to follow the One way without being sidetracked till I reach my destination. Though I may have so many dreams and aspirations, at the end what matters is the heights that I've been destined for......

The ABSOLUTE Truth!!

Sinner was I by Birth, but the Lord took upon my sins on His shoulder. Sinless He was yet He suffered in my place so that i may have Life, Life in its fullness. All human beings are destined to dust and ash, but what about the life after that. Yes, there is the very existence of Heaven and Hell, the life after our lives on the planet earth. Now, the choice is ours to make whether to accept the gift that Jesus has freely given by paying the price of our sins on the cross, or to deny the gift and end up in hell where there is never ending suffering. I thank the Almighty for choosing me and enabling me to accept Him as my Saviour. And today, on Easter, the Day about 2000 years ago on which the Son of God conquered death, I gladly proclaim that He is my Lord and because He lives, I live with Him forevermore and will dwell in His House all the days of my life. Amen!

"MY RAY"

(Written for me by someone and it touched ma heart to the very core)
<क.ल। २००६>
Lost in the deserts,
in dire need of a direction
Wanderin' in an ever vacuum state,
cold and lonely was I.
Then Lo! a ray of hope seems,
Surfacing all the emptiness,
Sufficing all the rues,
for being a lone wanderer
for too long a time.
Just as I was on the verge
of losing myself entirely.
Like an embellished ray of the sun,
piercing thru' my darkness,
the decaying night cedes.
Yes! You are the inspiration
that quenches my drought stricken soul.
A mere glimpse of your smile,
makes me a conquering hero.
Yes! I will perpetually hold on to
to that celestial Ray of Hope.
And that is none but YOU.

'Being Myself '- the real me in and out.

Often, traveling through this mysterious journey called 'life', i question myself about who am i? what m i doing? where am i headed towards?......... endless questions poking through my head.......seeking the answer for an identity.....i try hard to search for the real me, looking far beyond the depth and breadth of this small rounded world, thinking to get the answer from somewhere....... a sole wanderer, overpassing the simple reality that all i've to do is to look inside deep within my heart to find Me.....times and again, i try to run away from Me, pretending to be someone else, but at the end of the day, always realize nothing more convincing, more peaceful, and more rewarding than being "Oneself"
