The eternal God is my refuge

Image
The eternal God is my refuge        Deuteronomy 33:27 The word refuge may be translated "mansion," or "abiding- place," which gives the thought that God is our abode, our home. There is a full ness and sweetness in the metaphor, for dear to our hearts is our home, although it be the humblest cottage, or the scantiest garret; and dearer far is our blessed God, in whom we live, and move, and have our being. It is at home that we feel safe: we shut the world out and dwell in quiet security. So when we are with our God we "fear no evil." He is our shelter and retreat, our abiding refuge. At home, we take our rest; it is there we find repose after the fatigue and toil of the day. And so our hearts find rest in God, when, wearied with life's conflict, we turn to Him, and our soul dwells at ease. At home, also, we let our hearts loose; we are not afraid of being misunderstood, nor of our words being misconstrued. So when we are with God we can commu...

Choose Life

Image
Moses led the Israelites through the wilderness for forty years . They'd been tried , tested , and come out on the other side . But before they entered the promised land , Moses reviewed the covenant they'd made with God . He reminded them of all God had done for them and encouraged them to teach their children to hold these experiences close to their hearts . Moses called the Israelites to choose God and not fall away . They could choose life with God , or they could choose disaster and death . It was their choice . Choosing to love , obey , and cling to God is the life Moses sets before them . This life promises blessing , descendants , and a future . In the big and small decisions we face each day , we're called to choose life . We usually know right away when we've made the wrong decision ; it can feel like little death . But God calls us to...

Bringing smiles to lives!

Generally life gives us what we never expect. Sometime it makes us cry and sometime unfolds unexpected happiness and joy. We are betrayed from those whom we trust the most. Tears are gifted from our loved ones. Anything can happen anytime in this planet dramatically. In this race where brothers are not for brothers and fathers seek their own pleasures, how can we find a shed a place of rest, an assurance of belongingness? Every individual has been racing for an answer, pilgrims have walked very far for the seek of assurance and an eternal happiness, but alas! No one has found the assurance, "I am the life, come to me oh! heavy ladened" and the eternal happiness with God. Every now and then, a life is being destroyed, children are being fatherless, girl child are being killed. Life is peculiar but in this peculiar life if we pay effort to see a father filled with limitless love and care, we can know we have reasons to smile and opportunities to add smiles to lives. I know ...

Arise and Depart!

Image
T he hour is approaching when the message will come to us, as it comes to all "Arise, and go forth from the home in which you have dwelt, from the city in which you have done your business, from your family, from your friends. Arise and take your last journey." And what know we of the journey? And what we know of the country to which we are bound? A little we have read thereof, and somewhat has been revealed to us by the Spirit; but how little do we know of the realms of the future! We know that there is a black and stormy river called "Death." God bids us cross it, promising to be with us. And, after death, what comes? What wonder-world will open upon our astonished sight? What scene of glory will be unfolded to our view? No traveller has ever returned to tell. But we know enough to of the heavenly land to make us welcome our summons thither with joy and gladness. The journey of death may be dark, but we may go forth on it fearlessly, knowing that God is with u...

YESHWANT LOHAR, THE ABANDONED BOY!

Image
Yeshwant Lohar  On the 27th of February 2014, I was busy in my office. A woman named Mina Lohar came to me with a request of accepting a child in our home. She is a widow and worship's with us in the Kamlabagan Church of Christ. She is around 65 years old and goes to the tea garden to pluck tea leaves for her living. It was really heart touching to know the love of Jesus reflected to this sister. She has a hut made up of hey and bamboo which hardly consists two persons. But I was amazed to see the rooms she had in her heart. While she was on her way back from the worship service, she encountered a boy weeping by the side of the road. He seemed to be new to the place and was very afraid even to talk with this sister. But when sister Mina came near him and gently touched his head and with a soft voice and asked him about himself, he gathered the daring to speak to this lady and moreover he felt like I am safe with her. The first word that this boy spoke out was "I am hung...

What should we provide to our Children? Part - II

Image
# 2. Provide TEACHING, GUIDANCE & INSTRUCTION "Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it" (Proverbs 22:6)  Training our children in the way God wants them to be trained is the most important step we can dare. Most of the time our children are well equipped with every standards of the world but in the Christian aspects they are nothing more than just the name "Christian". I personally have witnessed Peter, John & James spending their time in the liquor shop, a big cross on the neck, a Cross tattoo in hand but found drunk in the bar. Mary has recently aborted a child. Martha is a single mother. Jonathan & Jennifer are in a living relationship for a month, after one month same Jonathan accompanies with Juli and Jennifer with another bla bla... Why all of us encounter this problem? Here is an answer: "O LORD, I know the way of man is not in himself; It is not in man who walks to direct his own st...
