Its 4.30 in the morning and
I am in my bed, tossing and turning
Somehow I just can’t sleep and
My baby is wondering whats wrong with me…
I woke up silently and went to my table
Questions running deep in my mind
Is the love that I talk is True?
Am I doing little justice to this?
If I love the way I ought to be…
Why things aren’t the way I am told to be?
As more and more such questions
Seems arising from an unending well
I waited for that gentle voice and touch
Love would u please tell me the answers?
In the break of the dawn and chirp of the birds
I heard that feeble voice… which said..
How long has it been, since u talked with me……
And told me your hearts hidden secrets?
How long has it been, since you gave me a chance
To tell you how much I love you and all that I have for you?
Love cannot be this way honey; I gave you all that I have
Even my only son! But, what have you done for me…?
With tears in my eyes, I started talking…
I knelt by my bed and said to my love
Darling Please forgive me, I give my all to you;
I want you to be by my side every day, every hour, every minute& sec
It wasn’t fair that I was blaming you all this while.Its me…and Its me…
I went to bed with a strange peace, knowing that it’s been restored again.
Forever mine … Forever yours … Amen

Art of Swimming:
I wanted to learn swimming for a long time and recently I got to go for my swim lessons. My Instructor there told me that I need to keep a few basic things in mind …
• Get use to the water- No fear
• Learn to float
• Coordinate - whole body
And as I tried doing these things, there you go slowly I was already half way thru the pool. The process was quite exciting. Now my aim is to Master this and so I can go from one end to the other.
As I went through this process, it reminded me of our own sail through the Christian journey in this life on earth, these laws apply pretty much here too.
Get use to the water - No fear : If it is that we need to swim through to get to the other side of the pool, we should be ready and willing to get into the water first throwing away all our fears no matter what that may, fear of drowning, dying etc. All these can make us not able to reach our goal, we may just remain there not knowing how to swim at all.
Float: let loose: Once we are in the water and if we are holding onto something along with us, it can still pull us down. All we need to do is forget everything and learn to float letting all that we hold close loose and allow the density of the water to take over. At the same time we also need to learn how to breathe as we are in the water, (not so easy to do) the timings, after every equal no of strokes u breathe out and in so that you may stay long enough in the water.
Coordinate: whole body: This is the a very important step, unless there is perfect coordination between our hands, legs, and our body we would probably just stay in the same place or go criss cross losing our track.
As we read this lets remind ourselves once again to throw away every fear and let loose everything that hinders from following, sharing and showing the love of Jesus in and through our lives. Let loose all that’s holding us down and let him take full control of our lives so that the purpose of our living on earth may be fulfilled according to his perfect will. To make this happen, the very important step is the relationship and communion between us and God. Let’s enjoy this beautiful relationship every bit, making our lives in perfect tune with Gods plans so that we can reach the other end of the shore……to be with Him for ever and ever one day. Amen
Happy swimming
Stay Blessed
