Prayer of Faith




Well Beloved Abba, Father, God give me a renewed faith in You. Because the faith in You alone is that prepares me to face the battles of every day life. Not only on the days when I am going great and winning and nothing seems impossible, but on days when I wonder if I am brave enough, smart enough, strong enough. Don't let me quit, not ever. Let me keep anunwavering faith in You. No matter how many people discourage me, doubt me, laugh at me, warn me, think me a fool, don't let me listen. Let me hear another voice telling me, "You can do it, and you will because I, the LORD GOD is with you" I know there will be times when I doubt my own ability, I will be discouraged, on the verge of despair. Don't let me give up, hold on to me so that I may not get drowned in my self doubt and in the lies the enemy bring forward. Fan the fires of my faith so that I will try even harder. Give me even more faith in Your grace, mercy and Your complete control over all aspects of my life. You are the source of my abilities and my faith. Teach me Your ways. Lead me in the path of Your will so that I may be successful beyond measure. I know that you will give me what I ask because You delight in showing Your mercy to those who count on You. Through the grace of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.

My Reward

"My reward" is the song in my player these days.An awesome song with amazing lyrics.


I want to hear You say the words to me “well done'
I want to hear You say “good and faithful servant'
I want to hear You say “I've prepared a place for you'
Let all the treasures of this world fade away

Jesus, You are my reward
To hear Your voice on that day is all I'm living for
Jesus, You are my reward
To see Your face on that day is all I'm living for

In the twinkling of an eye, we'll all be changed
We'll meet you in the sky
We will meet You face to face



After all this is wot every christian lives for.The reward that is far superior than any treasures and fame on the earth

"Some days are made for rain"

Yesterday happened to be one day as if it was made jus to rain.And yeah it was by far the best rainy day in Hyderabad for me. I was on my way back in the evening to my room from the client site.Oh boy it poured out very heavily and within 20 min the roads were flooded.

Still puzzled abt how bad the drainage system is in most cities.Its not tht only Mumbai,even the other cities suffer when there is a heavy downpour.

Coming back to the rain there is a cool quote which says

Some people walk in the rain, others just get wet

well I planned to get wet, and there was almost 1 foot of water and I couldnt make out the difference between a manhole,ditch and the road.And no autorickshaws in sight.

And yeah the ppl who got most benefited out of the rain was autowalllas,the fares were double and yeah ppl who didnt mind payin it to get back home as fast as possible.

"HE paid my ransom"

I have to pen down this dream of mine I had yesterday.I used to have lot of dreams,but this one I remembered and stayed fresh in my mind.The dream had both the extremes.

In the dream I was swimming in filthy life I was njoyin life to the fullest.Often when I do sin I was reminded by someone tht am goin astray frm the path am supposed to walk.The other side another person shows me the pleasures of life and encourages me to indulge and njoy them.

My heart asks me to go after the momentary pleasure without looking into the aftereffects of it.As i swim in the pleasures of sin and njoy life without worry.Now then the same guy who encourages me to sin comes in all of a sudden and says "Now that you have njoyed and benefited the pleasures I have given,you must be my slave" and I think momentarily and show to him a sigh of displeasure.
He gets red in anger and yells that I have to be punished for sins I have committed.Now i get restless and feel deserted.There was no one around me who can stand by my side.I felt that my fate is sealed.I was about to be punished, and I was ruing inside me for taking the sinful path.

All of a sudden a man walks in and shouts at the dark funny dressed man and says "I have paid the ransom for him".I was totally taken back who wud want to take my side and protect me.I looked at him and there he stood with brightness and I could hardly see him fully,that much was his glory.

The dark man was shivering at the sight of the man in brightness.He again said to him "I have paid the ransom for him,leave him alone".And at the end of it my dream came to an end.

I woke up with a sense of happiness in my life and a new refreshing start.The dream did exactly match my life.I often fall for the momentary pleasure of sin and then regret badly for wot I did.
But one thing made me strong,even though I strayed away from GOD's presence HE was always faithful to me.I felt ashamed at not being faithful to HIM.

The only words ringing in my ears the whole day was "I have paid the ransom for him".The words have rejuvenated me.Truely HE is an awesome and forgiving GOD.

Cryptic Minds

Well I wish I would have the ability to read ppls mind.Often you wish u had tht superpower to avoid evil plans of ppl.Especially in corporate world it does help a lot.Often u want to know wot ur boss thinks abt u.Wot ppl who work around you thinks abt you.

Am jus puzzled its jus me alone conscious abt wot others think abt me or is it that everyone faces it.But I assure you ppl r very cryptic abt wot they say.Jealousy , ego plays a gr8 part in it.

Well I have to stop thinking abt wot others think abt me.I jus dont want to give a damn abt wot others think.After all am a human,I have my own weaknesses and yeah I cant be 100% perfect.

Sometimes being very innocent backfires as well, people take you for a ride.Well seriously I donno where to draw a line for myself ,I have been submissive most of my life,I neva stood up for my personal views or thoughts.When am I going to stand up and say a firm "NO" when it is needed.

I wish I have a magic wand which shows me ppl who wish the best for you.Coz the world and the ppl in it is cryptic and hypocritic.

Well wot keeps me driving is my conscious and Jesus.I jus want to stay sincere and truthful as much as possible.I got to stop worrying abt wot others think abt me.GOD gimme the confidence and strength to fight on this battle of cryptic minds.

WHY SO SERIOUS ?


Oh boy.......Wot a movie and wot a performance.And wot best place to watch the movie than in a IMAX.After a serious of crappy movies in theater,it was refreshing to see a real gud movie in Hall.The last gud movie I cherished watchin in Hall was LOTR.

Now coming to the movie Batman rarely got the attention of the audience, it was a one man show by "The Joker" played by Heath Ledger.And its a pity and sad that he is not around to see his success.Lets hope the Oscars dont disappoint us this time.I forsee a Best Actor award to be given posthumously to Heath.

Few of the scenes where the Joker comes r awesome

The Joker: Do I look like a guy with a plan?

========================================
The Joker: If you're good at something, never do it for free.

========================================
The Joker: "Why so serious?"



Really a gr8 movie,gr8 performance.
