Bright Spots Of Life


Happyness is the kee to a fulfilling lyfe. If you are a vigorous spellchecker like me your eyes would have definitely gone to the misspelled words "happyness", "kee" and "lyfe". They say its human tendency to look at the flaws in everything we see. But if that were true, nothing in this world would satisfy as everything is flawed, scarred, dirty or just not enough. Seeing beauty in the imperfections is the only way we can be a little at least satisfied.


People see the one thing that's bad about you while God sees the one thing that's good in you. The above picture may be a universal truth for some of us, and many of us try so hard to be spotless without blemish in the eyes of everyone around. When that one speck or black spot scars us we may think its the end of the world, everyone knows the secret, its out or we've failed miserably at trying so hard to be perfect. But we weren't born to be perfect in this world. In fact it is really hard to pretend we are something we are not. That does not mean that we need to totally give up everything, thinking what we do on this earth is useless. Every single moment that we live in this Earth is a preparation for the eternity that lies ahead. 

People who criticize you are here today and gone tomorrow. The only ones who are going to be there for at least a while are your family and the one who is going to be with you eternally is God. Despite all our wrongs He still sees the good in the darkest part of our heart. He doesn't criticize, pin-point or rebuke us for what we've done. Instead He loves us. Give your life to Jesus who will give make you white as snow. Spotless without blemish. Perfect in this imperfect world. Renewed like the sun every morn.

Having God's viewpoint can change your life. Seeing the good in everything can make you happy and at peace. Put on God's lens and see the light for a change.

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...
