I was so humbled and blessed by my dad's love letter to me....Thankyou Daddy for leading me to Jesus by your life....YOU ARE MY HERO!!!!I love you...In Heaven I believe when the Lord sees me and Rose, He will look at you and say, "Well,done....good and faithful servant!!"....
Dearest Susannamol,
You are most beautiful like Jesus. I saw this tiny little Jesus in one of the rooms in St Stephen's Hospital. I looked through the tiny window of the nursery but.............It was JUST A BABY GIRL for my human eyes.Then again, beyond the eyes of flesh there appeared eyes of the Spirit and I saw a little Jesus longing to manifest His glory .I became a servant of the Lord who doesn't see what his eyes suggest, who doesn't hear what his ears suggest, who doesn't think what his mind suggests. The devil protested "It's not He but me", but I continued as the Lord's servant.Whenever I looked at my daughter I saw JESUS.Then passed many days,weeks, months and years. Was that JESUS ? "No" protested the devil, "It's not He but me" but I continued as His servant and delighted with His words unlike Thomas "Blessed are those who believe without seeing".
Finally came the verdict. Who was right????? I hushed as I waited. Who was right?????
It was the Lord Who was right and the devil was wrong.
Dear Lord....
According to Your word be it unto me!!!
Amen....

I have been inspired by the words said by a blind girl to a salesman who helped her set up baskets of apples that had been overturned in a busy airport terminal…He missed his flight in doing so and as he paid for the damages and turned to go, the girl asked… ‘’Are you Jesus?’’
I really want this true in my life..people who see me, walk with me, work with me, live with me… must see Jesus…
I want to dedicate this poem I to all who are challenged to live such a life…May it be so Lord..may it be so..Amen!!
Do they mistake me for Jesus?
When I am walking down the street..
With my gestures when I greet…
At times with friends just hanging out..
Do they sometimes turn about....
And mistake me for Jesus?
When I am at my place of work..
Things going about in a blur..
It’s just a little party you see..
Nobody from home at work they say..
But suddenly in their sentence caught mid-way..
Coz they thought they saw Jesus!
When I am at home at peace..
Doing my work and all is bliss..
Mom comes right in and asking many a thing..
Just as she is telling what I must bring..
Stops to smile and blinks..
No its not what she just thinks..
She saw someone like Jesus about…
Everyday life brings many a chance
Its upto us to take a stance…
To either take the heavenly cue
And like the true and chosen few
Make the little worlds around us see…
That Jesus lives through you and me..!!!
Though writing after a gap I want to put forth all my struggles as I face the reality of a crazy world around me, away from the shelter of my home...but always knowing that HIS GRACE is sufficient above all.. through this poem to show despite it all the Lord was and will always will be there to carry me through till the end...
The thousand bees of disturbing thoughts let loose..
Amen!!

The Lord has been speaking to me these days about how we get deceived along the Way in our spiritual lives...I too have fallen prey to this evil monster many a time but the grace of God endures and has lifetd me out of the miry clay on time!!!Praise God...The Lord's Word warns me ever more strongly as the time draws nigh for the Lord to return...The enemy sure comes like an angel of light but he only intends to steal, kill and destroy...
Dear Lord Jesus,
I ask you to preserve my life-spirit,soul and body from ever being contaminated from this venomous power of deception...Guard me,correct me,teach me and lead me by your grace!!!Amen..
This poem I wrote describes what I've learnt....so BEWARE Christian!!!
Many a child went astray..
Some came back and some just did sway!!
That path of death called 'deception bay'..
If you haven't heard then listen I say..
I've been a visitor there on that treachorous day..
Trapped by an angel of light who lay...
A path that seemed narrow like gold paint on clay..
I struggled, I fought till I finally found grace!!
And it twas grace that had me join back the race...
The Heavenly race that I was suppose to run..
Now that I'm onward with the soldier's stride..
I warn you of deception's ride!!
Beware O Christian! it's a deadly slow tide..
It starts as narrow but ends up so wide!!
A path to be forsaken, rejected and burnt!!
Don't ever let the feet of the gospel be turned..
To this path of doom, no never give no room..
Run like Joseph, flee from Lot's Sodom!!
Be a warrior,live like the Son!!
Coz' it'll be your Father who's finally won!!!!
Romans 5:20- But where sin increased, grace abounded all the more...(NASB)
Oh!!what a great God we serve!!!Amen
Through many situation I've faced in life I have learnt a forgiving heart goes a long way in healing hurts intentional or unintenional....we all have gone through situations where someone or the other let us down...the most painful when it comes from the people you'd never expect!! But holding that against someone in your heart sows only bitter seeds and eventually a bitter tree!!
Surely the Lord has shown us a very different way..May we find grace to be a people who forgive with all humility to be shining beacons for the Kingdom of God...
This poem i wrote describes what the Lord taught through some painful yet important lessons!!
If only we would let that self die..
Swallow that ego and His forgiveness lie....
If only we could let that fragrance of humility..
Become an odour that defines eternity..
If only we could let our brother win..
So that the world knows we're a kin..
Why do we need to prove to those along our road?
That we are somehow a better mould..
After all the struggle we have but the same goal..
Many times through life I've learnt..
We often forget that it was our Lord who had borne!!
It was coz' of His ultimate shame..
That now we are called by His Name..
Why do, O Christians, do we forget?
It's Jesus who loved when we first met!!
Why don't we then forgive and love like He said?
It's love that made Him go that far..
It's love that'll make His bride a star!!
Are you willing to make a start?
Oh! how He waits to see such a heart!!
Dear Jesus,help me to forgive and forget at all times no matter how hard it may seem on the outside..I know and trust You will give me the grace!! Amen..
Just wanted to share a poem that came from the depth of my experience of sorrows and regrets but oh what a blessed assurance that we have in Jesus!!
Thoughts led to all that I am..
I saw what makes all that I have..
Sometimes in life we mess the plan that He had,
Making only the enemy glad..
Why is it so hard to believe?
Even though we often receive;
A Word of correction, sometimes a cheer..
Why then not let Him our ships to steer?
I found my answers in my fears..
Many a time its coz' our insides..
Takes stands for both the sides..
How then can one anchor when there is a tide?
All along this heart had been listening to lies..
Forming all those unwanted ties..
I've learnt my lesson with some regret..
That even though we miss what we get..
Our Lord is ever willing to untangle the net...
Just keep onto Him your eyes set!!
Believe you me,coz' I know He'll handle the rest!!!
The human heart above all is very deceitful as the Bible very clearly says...we need to guard our hearts in this era of deception...Yes, Lord I want you to tkae full control of the reins of my heart...Don't let it go its way!! Amen..
