Oh ! Look at Gethsemane !!

Oh! Look at Gethsemane

Oh Look at the Garden of Gethsemane,

I can hear my Saviour praying for a sinner like me. SO much agony in His heart, that His sweat turned into blood. 

"Behold my beloved in Gethsemane garden

The cry of prayer for me sinner is heard

The whole body in pain, sorrow stricken
God of gods, the only Son sufferings are for me" 

The God of this universe, the creator of all things great and small, the one who got all angels under His command.. took the body of a human, endured temptation, showed me how to live, paid price for all my sins. hung on the cross naked being a youth, bore all insults hurled. yet remained quiet..

For through this suffering, I am made whole today and can worship the Father In Spirit and in Truth through the blood of jesus. 

Oh Jesus !!! all sufferings just for me ??? Am i so special to you ??? That you came down from heaven to save me and take me with you ?

SO long have I wandered out of your presence. Forgot all that you did for me. Still you keep loving me !! 

Oh !! Look in the Garden of Gethsemane..... I'm being one of the soldier to arrest you .... I'm being one of the Law makers to hand you over to be crucified. ///// Oh... I'm being one of them to revolt over you !!./// oh ... I,m being one of them to deny you !!!!!  How hard your heart would have wearied. 

Jesus !!! Sorry for being ME !!!

Behold my beloved in Gethsemane garden
The cry of prayer for me sinner is heard

The whole body in pain, sorrow stricken
God of gods, the only Son sufferings are for me – Behold

O My Father, if possible, let this cup pass from Me
However I have given myself to do your Will said He – Behold

His blood sweats drenching Him
Emmanuel did an heart melting prayer – Behold

Three times He prayed with unbearable sufferings
God fell Himself and prayed for sinners’ redemption – Behold

He who comforts with loving grace words
Cries bitterly at this time of distress with nobody to console – Behold

His great love of changing me like Himself
I will praise Him with my whole heart thinking this forever and ever – Behold

Am I Jonah ??

Written during Corona Virus Pandemic Lockdown, Chennai 2020

Everything stands still outside. The Govt has announced curfew and sec 144 where people aren't allowed to move freely. India set to go towards stage 3 of the virus spread during this week.

So many deaths and so many people unemployed. such a big disaster on this world during these recent times. so many business collapsing. Migrant workers suffering for food. 

God, Am i that JONAH ? are my sins a reason people are suffering ?

Make your wrath PASS soon Jesus !!

I do not wanna waste time being idle. Forgive me ! I repent ! We all repent !!! 

take care of us GOD !!!! 

I do not want to be Jonah who caused the shipwreck !! 

Smile at the Storm with Christ in the vessel

WITH CHRIST IN THE VESSEL we CAN SMILE AT THE STORM

Matthew 14:22 to 36

Written During Corona Pandemic Lockdown 2020 March

The above passages gives us an insight of the journey of life amidst a storm , amidst a LOCKDOWN on the sea.

1. IDENTIFY : When the disciples first saw Jesus, they mistook him for a ghost. It's very important to identify our saviour. Know His voice amidst all the distractions. Identify the Right Spirit

2. DESIRE: Peter had a desire to walk on water, just the same way like Jesus was doing. It's a very good habit to Desire for things Jesus said, "Take courage" Don't be afraid

3. ASPIRATION: Peter wished to walk on the water and started walking. its great to aspire and follow the steps of Jesus. To live like Him. To Speak like Him. To move like JESUS. To Heal like jesus. Ultimately Jesus is our role model

4. FEAR : When we walk with Jesus, things are not easy as always it seems to  be. Suddenly when a circumstance arose, a situation captivated, a storm closed in... we tend to be frightened the same way like Peter. There are always many reasons for fear. once a famous pastor told me this about Fear.

F- false

E- evidence

A- appearing

R- Real

How true a false evidence tends to captivate us. gives us a limit in life to stop excelling

5. DOUBT & DROWN: When Peter saw the winds, He feared, he doubted, He started to drown..

How much are we related to this ? We tend to walk so beautifully with Jesus after being saved, tend to enjoy the companionship, tend to worship and rejoice.. and suddenly after the fear has overtaken... we tend to Doubt on Jesus and start to Drown

6. RAISED up: This is the most beautiful part. Jesus is always near us to lift us. Embrace HIS LOVING hands that is always there to Lift us...

You know what, After Jesus pulled up peter to the boat... the STORM calmed IMMEDIATELY....

Don't fear, Don't Doubt, Don't be afraid when Jesus is in the boat... 

WITH CHRIST IN THE VESSEL, WE CAN SMILE AT THE STORM... as we go SAILING HOME....
