Father knows Best
I was strumming my Guitar in the dark with just my table lamp when I got a song in my mind that , felt the urge to write the words down.. So I logged in to capture the words and saw an e-mail from my MUM. Looks like she has got up from her sleep and suddenly wrote this to me.
Our Dear Son,
Hope you are fine. May our Lord God bless you with His peace and with all His riches.
No matter how insignificant or 'amateurish' you may feel today,the Master has these words for you:"Don't quit-keep playing". He will add whatever is needed to turn your efforts into a masterpiece.
Take heart our son; Your God is compassionate and mighty.
With love and kisses

Two things amaze me
1. This evening I was helping a friend of mine fill out her SOP(statement of purpose ) for her college admissions. So I opened up my SOP's that I had written 2 years ago for my MBA and passed it on to her. IN the process of reading my own SOP I was clearly able to see the ambition and the passion to excel in a career. Immediately I started to think lord you brought me this far and now I don't have a Job that I like to do. Feel all the passions that I had, has disappeared. But GOD reminded me how he has patiently removed me from being ambitious about a career to being ambitious of doing what he has called me to do. And my folks e-mail was just what I needed to hear.
2. Was watching the news and I had to close my eyes often as I was not able to watch it. This was happening in Kenya. People living in slums were being evacuated and so the local people were fighting against it. The government retaliated with force killing people and it was so gross the way people were being dragged and beaten up. In one room where there were 11 kids tear gas flames were thrown and a BBC reporter who went there 30 mins later could still feel suffocated .. how much would the Kids have felt it.. Hmmmm I began to feel Lord what is that I can do.. and all that I can do is pray and I did feel a bit insignificant in my prayer.. but hmm my folks mail were straight to it.
Also in the news was the BA flight which had lost all its engines 400 mtrs above ground and miraculously landed without hurting anyone, dragging itself along the green grass. This is what the reporter said.. ""very fine line between disaster and a miraculous escape "" I was pondering over this statement,, how very true.. most miracles is a thin fine line between disaster .. even in our life's if not for GOD's miracles life would be a disaster.. and the greatest of it all is the Life that he has given to us . .
Well now to the song that I wrote .. managed to remember only 4 lines.. it always happens unless you write it immediately you forget it . .
Would you ever really trust me with your life
would you ever really give you me all your sighs
Would you ever really believe that I can work miracles
If you really do then give me the burden that you are carrying
Will be sitting and doing it again sometime and pray that GOD gives me words.. Lot of thoughts and events has crossed my mind today but now I am going to bed with a light heart and a Happy feeling.
Finally in close these words made me smile . ..
Life does have it's way of dealing low blows,
Leaving you confused,unhappy and wandering which way to go.
When all your efforts to find or recapture happiness have been at their best,
Then only God can do the rest. and hmm my Father sure knows what's best.
Our Dear Son,
Hope you are fine. May our Lord God bless you with His peace and with all His riches.
