DON'T Follow your heart

                              'Follow your heart's desire' is a cliche which is usually used to bring clarity to a confused person but in reality is it actually so? Is following your heart, the elixir of life ?

                    
                             Following your heart's desires, according to me is like plunging into the sea, not knowing how to swim, or having any protective gear. The reason I say this is because the heart is like a wind wandering off with the whimsical fantasies of this world. Your heart may give you the motivation to do something you really love but it does not mean that it is always the right thing to do. 
                               The heart like any other part of your body is constantly growing, meaning that it can never attain the full maturity to know what's best for you. Your heart will beat according to the rhythms of your life. Like it or not your heart is as confused as you are.
                                The world may twist your heart, break it or turn it into stone. In moments when you feel terrified to trust even your own self remember ONLY YOUR CREATOR, the one who made your heart, can fully fathom your desires. Only Jesus can know your heart and as a heavenly father know what's best for you. Psalms 139:16 says 'Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance; And in thy book they were all written, Even the days that were ordained for me, When as yet there was none of them.'

Don't believe in your own instincts like animals do, believe in Jesus, the Lord of your heart. Only believe what He put's in your heart.

Waiting on the Lord: From Restlessness to Rest

Isaiah 40:31 "But those who wait  on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not be faint."           Patience is a great virtue, but it has never been my cup of tea. I have always struggled to sit still or remain idle, which made it especially difficult for me to truly surrender everything into God’s control. Yet, when faced with important life choices and uncertainty about how to move forward, I realized that the Lord, who created heaven and earth, is a far better planner than I could ever be. He knows each of my days before even one comes to pass, so why not entrust my life into His capable hands?           With this realization, I decided to wait for His direction, understanding that His ways are higher than mine and that He leads us through experiences that always result in growth and learning. Waiting on the Lord, I discover...

Change Our World!

The great big Earth, Is too huge to  fathom , And its inhabitants so varied to  comprehend  . 'Change the world' is the slogan, And each blamed the world, For not changing around them.

Syncing News and Prayer

     It has been nearly four years since I last picked up a newspaper, but in the past month, I decided to take up the habit once again. This return reminded me of the reasons I had initially given it up: the hurt, the hypocrisy, and the overwhelming deluge of information that often felt more like "infotainment" than actual news. Some days, the pain and suffering depicted in the articles were so overwhelming that I struggled to finish reading. I worried that I would become desensitized, reducing extraordinary tragedies to mere phrases like "it's normal" or "that's life." In moments of despair, I turned to Psalm 55:22, which says, "Cast your burden on the Lord..." and I endeavored to do just that. A Divine Perspective      The Lord is always faithful, and He gently reminded me that each article in the newspaper represents real people—individuals for whom Jesus Christ, our Savior, sacrificed His life on the cross. Each person, whether a vic...
