Healing through word of god

Few days back I was going thru sickness and was worried about it. This was troubling me for sometime. I’m a person who hates to have medicines and hence I dint want to meet the doctor.

During my childhood days, I remember, whenever I fall sick and my parents give me medicines, I used to throw it under the bed. Later when my mom sweeps the floor, she will find the medicines underneath…hehehe.

Anyways, coming back to the point…. I started praying about it and deep in my heart I told god that I do not want to visit any doctor. I knew that nothing in life happens without the knowledge of god, hence if he’s given this its god’s responsibility to heal me. Finally one day, one of my very near & dear one called me up and told me, the next time you pray, you repeat this word of god (Proverbs 18:21) and you will see the wonders.

I did the same what he told me and I saw that I received Healing through the word of god….”The tongue has the power of life and death and those who love it will eat its fruit”

Most of us have experienced healing through medicines, but that day I experienced healing through the word of god.

Ready to hear the Trumpet……?

Last week my Hubby and I were generally talking after the Sunday worship at home regarding the Sermon.

We were just realizing that in our day to day busy life most of the time we forget about this that we need to hear the voice of the trumpet and are we preparing ourself for that….isn’t a subject to ponder….

How many of us actually pray everyday to god….to prepare us and make us ready to hear that trumpet voice. We know about the subject very well but ultimately we need to hear that voice…..that voice….need to bang our ears so that we get up and go. What if we don’t hear that trumpet voice …….then we have the answer of our future.

Lets tell god that he give us the grace so that we may hear the calling of the trumpet and let that be the aim of life…..

R we tasting good…..by ignoring bad

Sometime back……while I was talking to somebody and listening to the bad experiences that they went thru, I was just imagining….many times we are so ignorant and behave like a cribber.

We as humans always try to search for complaints or things that we don’t have. But have we really thot about the good things that we share or the good experiences that we have.

For eg; imagine there are so many people who are facing bad marriages and having very negative people around. But by gods grace aren’t we lucky to get a great husband, great in-laws, wonderful parents & siblings, wonderful job….etc

Its time that we stop cribbing and start thanking god always for all the wonderful things in life. Every moment is given by god and let’s cherish those moments. Instead of trying to find negativity, lets start to find the positivity and once we start doing that we will realize that there are more positive/ good things than negative/ bad things in life

Surprises from God

For the past few days I was worried on something at office and was praying about it. As I was praying I couldn’t see any developments on it. But I told god, that it’s your responsibility to help me out when I’m in trouble. I could see the dead end very near to me and I almost lost hope on the situation but trusted god.

Suddenly this Tuesday god surprised me by helping me out miraculously. I just culdn believe that it happened and I could understand that “God works much higher than what we think”
We have a limit on our thoughts but when god works….he works higher than our thoughts and it becomes a miracle or a surprise for us.

“When everything becomes alright, a doubter becomes a child in his belief”

Happiness is….

Many describe happiness in their own ways.

Happiness is like a perfume which you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.

Doesn’t it feel really good when we hear something that we were waiting for a very long time? Something like this happened to me last Saturday. I was praying and desiring for something quite a long time and I heard the news on Saturday that my best friend is getting married. God does everything perfect at his time J

Sometimes we feel happy when we see others happy. I was so much in joy and my joy doubled when I shared it with my partner, the whole night I couldn’t sleep thinking about her. Sometimes the reason of our happiness becomes a reason for us to forget our other worries.

Happiness always looks small when we hold it in our hands. But when we learn to share it, we realize how big and precious it is!

Ticket Checkers are to Service or Harm Travelers?

Last weekend, 10th April' 09 being Good friday, i was all excited as my closest cousin who is also my best friend was planning to visit us in bangalore.She was travelling via train from Coimbatore to Bangalore.She got a waitlisted ticket and after getting into the train, requested the TC to get her a confirmed berth if any available. She had accomdated herself in one of the boogie and kept her luggage there waiting for the TC. Later TC (he was a helpful person)came and told her that one birth is available and you can come along with me to check the same. She left with him and thankfully by gods grace found that she got a comfortable place. After some time she realised that Ghosh! she had left her luggage in the earlier boggie. Quickly she ran to collect it but found that she had been robbed. All her belongings were inside that bag, including some money. Sister called me up and i asked her not to worry as both of our dress fittings are same ans she can manage.She is just 1 yr younger to me. Anyways, after all this tension, we thot of having fun and had a blast the entire weekend.

Sunday early morning @ around 5:30am, she was planning to leave. We had a small prayer and my husband dropped her to the station. Again, her return ticket was not confirmed.As soon as she crossed the Bangalore city station, TC asked her for the ticket and she said its waitlisted and if he can help her with a berth. To our surprise he started yelling at her loudly and said that a waitlisted ticket is not valid, you have to get down right now. He was accompanied by 2 other policemen and they started to scare her and pressurise her. They dint even give her the consideration of being a lady. She requested them and said that she doesnt even know the next station and it was quite dark outside. They were not ready to listen. To my knowledge the Tc's are appointed to service the people and not torture them.

Finally the TC said that she will have to pay around Rs.1750 as fine. The actual cost of the ticket is just Rs.180. Hearing this she found it ridiculous and told him that with this amount i could have caught a flight. She also knew that as per railway policy u would be fined 3 times if you are buying a new ticket. But this person had fined her 10 times higher than her actual ticket amount. She asked for a voucher and he was not ready to give it. Somehow she couldnt reach us and being Sunday we had to go to church and we were busy in getting ready.

On my way i called her up, and she told me the entire story. I told her that you shouldnt have given him so much money and we decided to lodge a complaint about that TC. Both of us, me and my husband were very disturbed as she had gone from our place. We prayed during the church and we said, God...nothing is impossible with you and plz help her get the money back.

Once we reached home we called her up and to our surprise she told us that the TC came and refunded her money back and just took the fine. I just couldnt believe my ears and i told my husband about it. He was extremely happy to see god answering his prayers.I asked her the details and she told me that, when we were conversing to complain about the TC and as soon as she kept the phone, she saw him standing before him. She said i'm sure he heard our conversation and that mite have made him uncomfortable. When he became uncomforatble god started working and we could experience his wonders and grace one more time in our life. Aint this beautiful....our gods wonders and his everlasting love and care?

"Everything is below god, all our worries and cares. God is above everything"

Few advices while travelling in a Train:

*Be careful and donot be irresponsible about your luggage.
*Always lock your luggage
*Donot keep your money in your luggage bag but always keep it in your handbag
*If you face a situation like this, you have the option of getting into the general compartment rather than getting victimised. Ladies can always opt for Ladies general compartment.
*Donot pay the Ticket Checker more than 3 times of your original ticket price(as per policy).
*Donot get down in any station that they mention. You can go into the general compartment and later decide.

Readers - Any advices or option you would like to give, Plz comment.

Hope all of us has a safe journey always :)

Sunday, 1st march' 09...



How many of u mite have faced an accident or faced an experience near to death? I hope my blog would remind u about it and make you thank god once again.


I would want to take this opportunity to thank my dearest father for his wonders in my life once again and also testify about it to everyone...The very first accident in my life

Last Friday my in laws had come home and we were all set to go out and have fun. Sunday morning we took both the bikes to go 2 the church so that we would reach fast as there is lot of traffic in Bangalore city and its difficult 2 reach in time if we take a car. My mother in law has a major disc problem since many yrs and she avoids travel completely. But since she hasn’t visited our home, she thot of coming, after a long time and after many of our prayers. We were on our way for the worship and by gods grace my mom in law was with my husband as she feels comfortable when he drives and I was sitting behind my bro in law. We were in a normal speed and suddenly we see a bike racer with this bike called Yamaha r15 with high speed crossing us and hitting our bike. I tried to hold both of us tightly so that we don’t fall as I could see lot of vehicles coming behind us and we were on the main road. But I couldn’t resist and I fell from the bike to the center of the road and the racers bike hit my leg and also my brother’s leg. Both of us still cannot remember exactly what happened and we don’t know which part of our body has hit where. I don’t know how but by gods strength I got up at the same speed I fell, coz back of my mind I knew vehicles are just behind us. Thankfully all the vehicles stopped there as if there was a traffic signal. The word says “Angels will protect you in all your ways” This was the new yr (2009) promise that I got from Bible. My brother has fractured his ankle. Since I got a hit and fell down; even I was suffering from terrible bodyache but i'm fine now by god’s grace. Its still surprising that after falling from a running bike, nothing major happened to me. God protected like the apple of his eyes and kept me safe under his palms
