A Frightening Car Accident After Accident  We survived a frightening car accident. The road was wet due to rain, a goods carrying truck (Dumper) had lost its control taking a swing, imbalanced and completely out of control. I was heading towards Bagdogra and the Truck was coming towards Bhuttabari.  The truck driver had completely lost his control. There seemed no way. He foolishly applied the break to control the speed at the eleventh hour, and it caused his truck to skid in a remarkable fashion. It did a 180-degree spin in the middle of the sharp corner, facing the wrong way! Imagine if there was another car travelling at 70 km/h right behind me. A severe collision would be the order of the day. Thank God there wasn't one!  But this wasn't the end of the story. Sliding momentum brought the right back portion of the Truck to smash the Engine of my car. The impact was so severe that the engine bent inward, the whole back axle shifted toward the left and...

ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE   We often like complaining, because everyone around us we have heard complaining; Youngsters, Middle-aged, Old aged, Children almost everyone. Thank you and Sorry has become a trend a kind of fashion.  We can not ignore the fact that technology has bestowed upon us so much but we do complain if the TV or the Internet signals is down for even five minutes. Complaining is everywhere.  How can we develop the attitude of gratitude?  It is not easy to develop this attitude of gratitude, especially you are surrounded by the vicinity of unthankful people, complaining society and bragging adults. So let's learn how to be happy with this attitude?  Be thankful for everything you have been blessed by the almighty. Many times we throw ourselves in the darkest ditch just because we can't see or value the blessings which we already have in our lives.  Let me start up with a short story:  A blind boy sat on the step...

Have you ever realised that there is someone who really cares for you and love you more than anyone in the world? Do you know that the God who created the heavens and earth know everything about you? Nothing has ever hidden from the sight of God. Your every pains, your sorrows, the tears that you shed in the darkest of the rooms, the agony, the cloud of trauma that accidentally covered you whole; He know everything. He knows your past, present and your future. When I am talking about the past, please don't tremble with fear, God is not only a judging God but a loving God. He erases all your scars from yesterday, walk with you in the journey of life today and promises not to forsake and leave you in any tides of life. We all are aware of all the heights of tides which life gifts us but JESUS promises to stand with us in the midst of the storm. He loves you and He has a plan for you. Let us read a story about Jesus and His disciples. One day they all were travelling, Jesus ...

Bear with (Accept) each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on Love which binds them all together in perfect unity (col. 3:13-14) Our actions issue from our attitudes. Attitudes are learned; they are also chosen. Only when they become habits, as the consequence of intentional practice, do they really become part of our character - who we really are. Landon Saunders was once heard to say, "You can't win at life if you loose at relationships, and you can't loose at life if you win at relationships." Meaningful relationships are fostered, nurtured and maintained by the habits of loving, accepting and forgiving. Love = intending the best for another whether or not it is deserved. Acceptance = valuing another as potentially bearing God's image. Forgiveness = cancelling all debts incurred by others. To this you were called, because Christ suffered for yo...

Raju was playing cricket and he decided to narrate the story of his failure to Roma, his friend. He starts with, everything was going well, I was playing well but all of a sudden the ball came towards me for an easiest catch. I was almost done but at the moment my past got into my eyes and I failed. The greatest pain anything can give us is our past, nothing can hurt deeper than our past. There is no room to hide from the guilt we know we have done. Every now and then it struck into our neck as the fish bone. We want to get rid of it but it continues to live with us and destroy our pleasant future. Let us turn to our Bible and see how Jesus dealt with this issue. Jesus was born with a terrible stigma. His mother, Marry was pregnant with Him before she ever married Joseph, she betrothed. The Bible says that they had not a sexual relationship, but "that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost" ( Matthew 1:20) Only two people in the world knew that Mary was a vir...

NEED OF LOVE PORTRAYED IN THE BIBLE 2000 YEARS AGO IN THE CHURCH TODAY! Romans 13:8-10 Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbour has fulfilled the law. For this, "You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet," and if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, "You shall love your neighbour as yourself." Love does no wrong to a neighbour; therefore love is the fulfilment of the law. Galatians 5:13-14 For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, "You shall love your neighbour as yourself." In the corporate world and in popular culture it is easy to imagine a situation where people "bite and devour each other" in order to get ahead or be the best. The fact that Paul ...

A Exertion/attempt to Change lives for Christ Life has always been difficult in earth, sometime we lack food and sometime shelter. The process of scarcity is always in life both to the higher and those who are considered to be lower class. But thanks be to God that although we have nothing we have everything in Christ. Our lives are hidden in Him. We live and we die but before this time frame comes to an end we need to seek Christ for we have life in Him. A vast majority of people have always wished to change their life, life style, fooding habits, clothings habits etc. But even after this severe changes people are not happy, their lives are destroyed why??? Many scholars have tried to answer these questions but they returned bare hands even if someone brought the answers they are less practical in the real lives. These theories 'how to be happy' seems good in books but not in the acutual and real lives. All these thing happen because " Je...
