Gospel poem

The Almighty God created all with His Word

Heaven and the earth, beast and bird.

He chose to shape man with His hand

With the touch of His love, God made him with the sand.

God loved and cherished every moment with man

Knowing man would fail to follow His plan.

Man's disobedience led to his fall 

The curse of sin fell upon all.

In a moment's time all was ruined 

Away from God, man lamented of his doing .


God is love and He is just,

So the punishment for sin is a must. 

For the penalty of sin is death and hell.

Who could save men from this cursed spell?

God is love and He loved us first

He gave His most precious Son to redeem the dust.

Jesus knew no sin and lived a perfect human life

As a spotless lamb of God He offered Himself to die 

He took upon Himself all our sin's punishment 

With every drop of His blood, our broken cord was mended.


Many are wandering in quest of a true God 

With much faith and devotion on their feet, they trod

What can please the Almighty Creator and bring salvation ?

Is there any merit in the mere act of creation?

Jesus died on the cursed tree

To bring us salvation all for free.

On that cross, all our debts are paid 

If we repent and believe in Christ, we will be saved .

Prayer So Precious

-
Image
It gives me immense joy when I see my two-year-old praying to God with all his innocence. Being born into a believer's family, I have also learned to pray since childhood. Over the years, praying became a habit and then, sadly, a ritual. As I was meditating about prayer, I examined my prayer life. I asked myself, Am I praying just like a newsreader, stating a few pages of prayer matter before the Almighty as if God doesn't know how to read?  Does my prayer have a life, a heart, and a genuine concern in it, or is it just a chanting of numerous words?  Do I really know the preciousness of prayer? Over the years, have I become negligent in my prayer life? Do I underestimate this greatest privilege that heaven has blessed me with? So I tried to understand what prayer really is. Below are a few points about prayer that changed my perspective and helped improve my prayer life. 1. Prayer: a blessing A famous quote by Spurgeon says, Anything is a blessing that makes us pray.

God's good plan- Endure and Return

God's good plan- Endure and Return For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11 Jeremiah 29:11 is a popular and often searched verse in Google. Many a times we contemplate this verse out of its context. We use it as a quick fix for all our problems. We claim this verse and desire the immediate rescue from all our sufferings.  But when we understand this verse in its context, it has much deeper and spiritual applications in our life.  One of the crosswalk article I recently read addresses our misunderstanding of this verse. It states that - the heart of the verse is “not that we would escape our lot, but that we would learn to thrive” in the midst of it. Here’s the context: God's people were in exile, a punishment from God as a result of their disobedience. The prophet Jeremiah confronts the false prophet, Hananiah, who had boldly proclaimed that God was going to free God's

Clear the Clutter

"Clear the clutter" is the notification I often get on my phone that suggests I should delete some of the unwanted things in the phone. Just a matter of few clicks and all the clutter will be cleared. How easy is that !! I wish it was that easy to do in life as well.  Today I would like to take you to one such instance in the Bible where a clear the clutter operation was performed. The young energetic king Hezekiah at the age of 25 took the throne and started reigning. But unlike his wicked father king Ahaz who had shut the door of the temple of God and did every kind of evil ; Hezekiah did what was right in the sight of God and followed the path of his forefather David. What a good testimony he was able to keep inspite of his negative circumstances. This world always tells us "Like father, Like son ". But it is not so and king Hezekiah is the proof. You always have the power to choose- " the willful choice ". It amazes me how king Hezekiah was able to ov
