If you love your father or mother more than you love me, you are not worthy of being mine, or if you love your son or daughter more than me, you are not worthy of being mine. 
Matt:10:37

Who would put your love to your family and love to your God and measure? No one can. And therefore how would you know? 
When it comes to decision making, whether you would compromise your time with God over spending time with them? How would you make decisions for your children? How would you help them take decisions? Are you more of a pro-worker or a pro-prayer regarding your family? Despite your business do you find time to be with God? Not as a ritual. Not as a responsibility to ministry. Do you eagerly wait and find time to be with Him? 

Do you compromise on family prayers, quiet times and attending meetings because you have other commitments? 
Where are your thoughts centered around? God cannot be your number one priority. He has to be your only priority. That is how you make Him the centre of your life and keeping all others in the periphery. 

You cannot bring these peripheral things into the centre. All that you do, all that you want to do, all that you desire to do would be revolving around what you have kept in the centre. 
So your decision makings are dependant around whom you have kept on the centre. Let seeking God, the desire to dwell in His presence rule everything in your heart. So that His presence alone will guide you. The fullness of joy will rule over your heart despite all troubles. He alone will be the driving force of all your decisions.

Love letter

My darling, I want you to realise how much I love you. I have expressed my love always and my desire is that you would understand  the depth and height and width and length of my love.  You are not alone. You are not an orphan to be left alone to chance. You will be well taken care of. Your very being is mine. You are mine. You are my precious little one. Though you feel alone, I am there for you. Do not feel that no one understands you. Do not feel that no one knows your plight or cares for you. I am there on your side. I have fashioned you by my hands. I have engraved you in the palms of my hand. You are so precious to me. Do not feel abandoned. Do not feel dejected. The truth is I am with you till the end of days. Whatever contrary to this, is a lie. Just know my presence with you always. Trust in me. I am your Father. I am your Husband. I am your Lover. I am your Friend. I will never leave you nor forsake you. I have loved you with an everlasting love. My love ...

Dear Brother. Rest in peace. This life is small. Yet proved again. But you proved. Living for Christ alone matters. Trying to acquire skill  And to use your well earned medical knowledge For the poor and needy. Your words still ring in my ear. "We are alone there" Brother gone too soon. Leaving behind a legacy. Well done good and faithful servant. Enough is enough. Come back and enter the rest planned for you. In His bosom, the classic smile I can imagine. Your laughter will surely resound in heaven today. There is rejoicing in heaven  For a son has come back home. Fulfilling his Father's will for him Why should earth be gloomy?  For he is home.

Distant destiny

It was so that the works of God might be displayed in him. Jn:9:3 Who do you reflect? Whose work do you display? Bitterness, hatred, lack of love, unforgiveness, lack of joy, displays the work of the enemy. Selfcenteredness, motive of self gain shows the character of devil. God's character do you display? Unconditional love, love those who hate you, loving your enemies, considering others better than yourself. These are far from us. Why?  We are still influenced by the world than the Word. We spend more time with the futile than the eternal. The Eternal God is still a distant destiny to be achieved, not a present reality to be indulged. There is no intimacy with the Father who longs to fellowship with you. Image credit: https://science.nasa.gov/mission/lunar-orbiter-1/

#Iam the way, the truth and the life

I am the way, the truth and the life Jn:14:6 I am the way. I am the only way to reach unto the Father. I am the only way of salvation. I am the only way of forgiveness of sin. And without forgiveness of sin there is no access to God. I am the truth. I am the true God. There is no lie in me. Whatever I say is true. For my nature is truth. God is true. God alone is true. So when I say, I am the truth, it proves my diety. I am the life. In me alone is life. The abundant life which I promised is only through me. Unless you believe in me there is no part in the life that I offer. Living life to the fullest is only through me, because it is I who created this life. And I will enable you to live that life to the fullest capacity in this fallen world. Not only in this world, but in the world to come as well.

I was blind. Now I see.

One thing I do know. I was blind, but now I see. Jn:9:25 No matter what explanations stand against the historical evidence, whether Jesus existed or not!  No matter what explanations hold against Jesus' claim of His diety and His manhood! Born of a virgin. Did so many miracles. Died and rose again on the third day. Only one thing matters. I was blind. Now I see.  Personally the bard's experience with the living Jesus, sustains his faith and hope in Him. Though the bard knows, historically all His claims are prophesies come true and whatever has been testified about Him in the Bible is true and authentic, more important is the fact that, the bard has personally experienced Jesus on a daily basis. That is enough. Not to be logically and scientifically be convinced. But to personally believe. That is the strongest testifier. That Jesus is alive. Seated on the right hand side of the Father. Continually working in you and through you and for you. To be honest Jesus is w...

Boom - a poem

I am He. Jn:18:5 Three times, Jesus said, I am He. Three times He echoes the sound of Yahweh. And the third time all who heard Him,  Drew back and fell to the ground. No surround sound. No acoustic effect. Just the authority. Such power. The Creator, the Almighty, the All Powerful. The All knowing God. The Second of Trinity. This same Jesus. The same authenticity. Says to you in the midst of your turmoils. I am He. That's enough for your mountains to crumble. For He is your Maker. For He is your Husband. Therefore His words are trustworthy. Do not be afraid, I am with you. I have plans to prosper you. I am on your side. I will fight for you. Your enemies therefore will flee, No matter how powerful they are. Be it the strongest men on earth. Or a powerful demon against you. Every knee shall bow, when He says, I am He. Don't you dare touch my child. He is mine, He proclaims. He declares, not whispers. That is enough, my dear one. Death could not restrict Him. Grave co...

Sin

Go and sin no more. Jn:8:11 Jesus came not to condemn you of sin; but to forgive. The woman caught in adultery did not deny her sin. She admitted. Therefore she went forgiven. What about the man involved? Where is he in the picture? He has never admitted that he wronged. Therefore he went unforgiven. He thinks he has escaped; he has fooled everyone. But the truth is - she remains forgiven; and he unforgiven. The instruction that Jesus gives after the forgiveness is to go and lead a life without sin. To lead a pure life. To take sin seriously and evade from it. How do you approach sin? Conceal it and you will remain unforgiven. Admit it and confess it, you will be forgiven. Once forgiven, avoid it and lead a pure life. Image credit: https://christourhope.blog/2020/01/31/lust-1-corinthians-618/amp/
