I speak because I believe

Christianity is not a religion, it is a way of life. Anyone can be Christian regardless of cast, race, creed or religion. My attempt in this blog is to showcase how simple it is to follow "the path" that Jesus showed us to enjoy life on earth (material world) and beyond (spiritual).

I am only Human

We are blessed with everything we need. Air in our Lungs. People who love and care for us. Things that make us smile. Others that awe us and make us wonder.
Blessed with being Human, we have all the senses that we need to survive. Hands, legs so that we can work to put food on our plates and those of our families. Thanks to HIM, we have all that we need.
Then we chase what we want. This is where things go wrong.
There is nothing wrong in chasing your dreams, but they do come at a cost. More than often we aren't prepared to pay that cost. Knowingly or unknowingly, we embark upon this venture of creating fame and fortune for ourselves, much more than was cut out for us. To get there we have to go the extra mile, naturally. We do experience failure, stress, frustration, jealousy, unhappiness... basically all the worst parts of the bible. Somethings that HE wanted to shelter us from. But...
Its human to Want, but it's natural to Give. Its human to be One up on the other, but Its natural to treat the other as an equal. Its human to experience stress, jealousy, frustration, but its natural to experience peace...
Believe me. Our lives were meant to be happier and simpler and peaceful. So the next time you want some thing and try and get it, ask yourself, "Do i need this?"

I. C. U.




Have you ever thought about the consequences of your actions? How it might affect not only your life, but also the lives those those around you. Would you be at your best behavior if you knew you were being watched all the time? Would you be thinking twice before you, speak or even wish for if you knew you were being judged with every idea that you get or every move you make.
It does sound like a song from a famous singer but the fact of the matter is HE IS WATCHING YOU. We might manage to discipline our kids by convincing them about book for Good children and another for Bad. What we forget is to keep a constant check on where our names figure. The human mind and body is prone to all kinds of illness, stress and pressure. Pressure of living, succeeding and being one up in this rat race. There is definitely no harm in being one up, but at what cost?
The word I would want to reiterate is "God Fearing". He does know all because He sees all. He isn't only watching us as we light the lamp and pray, but he is watching us as we sleep. Scary isn't it? Think before you leap. We are being watched.
