God blesses us even if we dont realize it! :)

Ive known many people including my old self focusing on the things that don't go OUR way. Something wrong happens, we ask God, "WHY ME??? Why am I not blessed like many out there???". Everyone has problems in their life. How would we know that a True King lives if we were always happy? Some way or the other we are to be reminded that Christ Lives... in us! :)

A little reminder that God is in our midst at all times.. be it happy, be it sad. We need to thank Him for all those times, leading us to believe and have faith that He will make everything right (immovable faith is a must!). In short, its His blessings which we may not stop to realize. Hence, lets change the way we look at the not so good things that happen in our life and take it up as a lesson for us to know that God is Powerful, God is Good, God is Merciful.... He is Everything! :)

Its as simple as saying, you are breathing because of His grace :D

Only when you make His way your way, will you see the difference! ITS JUST SO AMAZING! :D

Jobless? Got a lot of time? Why waste when you can learn the answers to all your questions! ;)


YES! the Word of God! I have the Good News Bible which I received from the Church 17 years ago on the day of Holy Communion. I attended Catechism classes as it is called by the Catholic Church for the first 5 years (that was the end and nothing further was ever done at Church). 


Being very honest, I have no clue what I learned from it. All I can remember doing was we were given many questions to learn for the exam, by heart them and put it on paper and then we are said to know the Word! Thankfully my parents made us kids read the Bible at home. They would explain to us if we dint understand yet that was just not enough. Only if I knew about those Bible study classes that friends from other Churches went to. But you know what, God has His timing. He just knew that no matter it was 17 years ago or now, He will bring the Word to me, He would make me want to know about it all! Wow! God sure is amazing in His ways! :)

Very often or every single time we dont have an answer, we ask God to tell us or we make our own answers in our heart to sort of console ourselves or even keep wandering about worrying and stressed about finding it. Oh boy, I missed out so much in the earlier part of my life. For those who still dont know about the Word which is the Bible, it sure is a blessing to read and understand it as that is the only place where you can find the answers to all your questions. This will totally amazr you just as it has to me! Every time I read the New Testament, I would hit my head and say, "Oh there it is!" :D 

I would have read the same verse years ago before I was saved but it would never register in my head. This isnt just me but has happened to many of His children. Why? Because we werent craving to know about it. It is important that we ask for it through His Word and then everything starts to be VERY clear. There is NO room for confusion as it is not from our God! :). Make use of your free time speanding it on the Word. 

Read the Word today.. Read the Word everyday... You could feel lost or wondering trying to understand it but keep reading... its never a burden.. continue fellowship.. get to Bible classes and then know the TRUE meaning of life that He has given! :)

What is your approach to fear?


This morning, as I took my seat in the Tiger Airways flight to Gold Coast, I continued my conversation with God. I asked, "Lord, how many over here KNOWS You?". I dint get an answer. So i asked again, "Am I going to witness something today?". Still nothing. Probably 10 minutes into the journey, the plane starts to shake a bit and then builds up... The captain speaks, "we are going through unknown turbulence and should recover in about 5 minutes. Please continue to keep your seat belts fastened."

What was running in my mind? How did i face that situation? Questions after questions would be arising.

Its been few years since I faced the fact about death. Unavoidable. One day or the other we all have to head back. It never bothered me. I was always ready. I don't fear it anymore. Best experience was last year when the doctor at the visa medical check said, "I suspect you have a faulty heart valve." I still remember the way I smiled at it, at her. She just wasn't expecting that reaction! haha :). i was so light about it. I did the required tests and it came perfectly normal! Praise God yea! :) 

Likewise, the whole plane shook. I saw faces all wrinkled up with fear as I smiled and said to Him, " Aha, now is that Your answer?". My smile broadened as I knew so many out there called His name. Atleast one definitely would have thanked God for bringing the situation in control. God works in His own ways. All we need to do is KEEP OUR FAITH STRONG IN HIM. I went on... "Father, only if they knew You! If they did, they wouldnt be terrified". Some where relaxed. I definitely cant speak out their minds very well but I sure was so relaxed, continuing my little talk with God. And in few minutes, the sky clears as I see the droplets on the window pane. I could feel the beauty in it. Some music played in my head. It was very peaceful. Wow! Calming!  You should have seen the sky at that point. I got reminded of this verse. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."- Proverbs 3:5-6. 

I asked two questions and God answered both. The second went this way. The cabin crew speaks, " we are sorry to announce that we would have to wait atleast 50 mins before the ground staff can get the stairs ready." We were stranded in the flight after landing as all of a sudden the clouds roared with lightening and heavy rain. Again, frustrated souls lingered around but at the same time I saw few like me take the time to enjoy the beauty of Mother Nature, learning and spending time to be positive and patient towards life rather than scourging the situation. That was God saying, "When it is My time, I will get you out safe." 

Try being different. Try seeing the beauty of the Lords creativity. Wow! Being positive or negative about the fear or even anything, is left to us ultimately. We are all unique and beautifully created by the Creator. Perceive it the way you want but make sure you are happy! :)


Hope you got God's message :)
