Rest,Relax,Rejuvenate

In this busy world, we often hear complaints like people are too busy to get some time to relax. Sometimes I even wonder how I do all these things by myself. Our body works like a machine that operates 24/7. I think most of the times it depends on us how to find time to relax or take a break. We often rely on ourselves and thinks I run after everything that I’m supposed to because I’m energetic or I’m not lazy. But do we realize that this energy is our Lord’s gift. If he closes his eyes upon us for a second, we may not be able to move and function, there goes all our powers or ability to do our responsibilities. Hence isn’t it important to take care of our body and soul and find time to rejuvenate. 1 Corinthians 6:1 says “Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?” Hence it is our responsibility to protect and preserve the temple where Holy Spirit dwells. Hence how can we fuel up ourselves? Begin your day with a Bible verse, a couple minutes of praying or meditation. I know it’s not always possible to find time, but if there is a will there is a way. Do we skip brushing our teeth because we are too busy or let our loved one skip morning tea or breakfast because we are too busy. The answer would be No, because we know those activities are essential to keep our body clean and healthy. If we are that much concerned about it, just imagine that body as the temple of God or Holy Spirit. Aren’t we supposed to take care of it more cautiously? In Psalms 91:1 it says “Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty”. So let’s find time to rest and relax in the shadow of our God who provides us with the time, strength and opportunities to run around and live our lives.

A recap of 2025

A Year of Uncertainty, Unexpected, Unlearning, but Unending Grace As we wrap up 2025 and are ready to welcome 2026, I want to reflect on how this year was to me.  This year was a season of unlearning. I unlearned reliance on my own strength, the need for constant approval, and the illusions I once held about what support and friendship should look like. It was a year that challenged my mind, stretched my heart, and tested my endurance. Yet, through it all, I experienced the grace and faithfulness of God in ways I had never known before. There were seasons of confusion, loss, and disappointment. Circumstances shifted suddenly, familiar patterns broke apart, and the structures I relied on seemed to dissolve. It felt as though the ground beneath me was being rearranged, and I had no control over the timing or direction of the changes. In moments like these, it was easy to feel discouraged or question the purpose of the struggle. But looking back, I see that what felt like coll...

A letter to My First Born

Image
💗💗Life  has always something new to teach us. Every day is a new lesson for us. This is the time of  celebration, a season to rejoice and  a proud moment in life. We are about to enter into a new chapter of    our lives. I can't believe my first born is graduating from high school. Your  12 years of hard work and  sleepless nights has  helped you  to graduate successfully from high school with good grades, top 3%   in the class of 2021. As I always say I am so proud of you, what you have achieved, and how you have   grown into a beautiful young lady both inside and out.  When I say I am proud of your victories, I  am also humbled  to see God's grace upon us.  I don't have any words to express my gratitude to my  lord and Savior. As we see, thousands of kids graduate from high school every year. From your  school    too, 900 plus students graduated this year. But for me it is not just a ...

Death

When Death Came Close Death, I saw you standing near, I felt your touch, cold and clear. You took me from the ones I knew, From those I loved, from all that’s true. You showed me things I couldn’t see, How much someone can mean to me. We often don’t appreciate Until it’s gone, it’s just too late. For some, the loss can’t be replaced, A missing piece forever faced. For others, it’s a kind of gain, A break from ties that once felt chained. A freedom, a control they find, A different life, a clearer mind. For some, it’s work, a daily grind, For others, it’s new life designed. But me—I lost all I held dear,  all that’s near. I lost my home and became an orphan  You were the thread that kept us close, Now everything I loved feels lost. Time moves on, but I still grieve, No words can show the pain I weave. No one can truly understand The weight I carry in my hands. They say, “He’s old, he’s free of pain, In a better place, don’t  feel the strain....
