If you try hard enough you can even lie to yourself. And the sad part is believing the lie is only going to hurt you and no one else
God’s Power
God’s power, His strength is not something that can just be handed to us. It is not something that comes flippantly or easily. We don’t obtain it with passivity;we earn it through battle—by walking with God.
- John Paul Jackson
God gives you a Vision. And that Vision is almost impossible to see right now. From every angle. When everyone around you says it won’t happen. I know God can’t lie. Won’t lie.
But maybe the fault lies with me hearing it correctly?
Errol Marks on…. Older Christians Know They Did It Better
1) Wear appropriate clothes. You know – Pant, Shirt, Tie, etc. Pant held firmly by a black leather belt above the navel.
2) Sing better – reverent worship and in tune.
3) Fellowship – plenty of meeting and talking about the Bible and why Song of Solomon shouldn’t be a part of it.
4) Prayer – longer and more meaningful ie more bigger words and in shakespeare like English – which was pleasing unto God.
5) Better spirit filled times – everyone fell and spoke in tongues or learned malyalam from listening to the others.
6) Relationship with the opposite sex – boys treated girls like sisters. No hugging or kissing on the cheek, one arm distance at all times.
Brother Jack married Sister Susan.7) Respect – elders were called sir and mam and were always right.
8) Shoes – black shoes, polished to double up as a mirror. Always black and shiny.
9) Dating – oh, there was no dating.
10) Fun – party games like musical chairs, kho kho. Antaakshari, dum charades, guess the bible character, and the all time popular ‘which page in the NIV is this phrase from’ modern day parties just can’t live up to the fun of those days.

Sathya Sai Baba dead
God man? Fraud? Pervert?
Doesn’t matter now. He’s dead. And as much as people would love to speculate, there’s nothing changing that. No reincarnation, no rebirth.
He prophesied that the year of his death will be 2022 and he will be reincarnated in 2033 and and the person will reveal himself in 2044.
What a load of B.S.
One life. One choice. Sadly he made his.
Closing 2010
So here is the list I’d written at the end of 2009.
And here is the 2010 list that I did not blog .
1. Get a Job.3. Love More
2. Grow a Beard
4. Be a Blessing to all my friends.
5. Make a new friend.
6. Min 100 Crowns.
7. Buy a Mobile Fone.
8. Hold on to a Mobile Fone without losing it on my Bike(funny how I have not been able to do that)
9. Save enough to buy a D-SLR
10. Do something absolutely crazy.
11. Apologize to a close friend for all the pain I caused.
7 days onwards
Just tired of it all. Tired of coming in last, playing second fiddle. Tired of not performing. Tired of being ridiculed. Tired of being cast out. I though all of this will change when I accepted Christ. Change it did. Christianity is not about losing your problems. But about finding God holding you in the midst of your problems. But what I seem to miss are the promises. It just seems so hard at times.
It’s easier to fall down and stay in the muck than it is to get up. Getting up alone is pointless. You need someone to lift you out of the dirt. Someone on dry land.
what 2010 taught me
1. The Goodness of God is downright undeniable.
2. God has a plan for every day of your life. And yes you can accept or reject it. It’s called free will and God will still love you!
3. When you get closer to God’s Heart what hurts him will hurt you.
4. It’s ok to be emotional. Many men view it as being ‘girly’ but you can’t deny that humans are emotional beings. We need to cry, laugh and be angry. It’s normal. Emotions do not bring you closer to God. Your Faith does. However the Holy Spirit does use them. What moves Him moves you and that is an emotional response to the world.
5. Waiting is not a passive action but an active one. God is building your character in the most difficult of situations. What may seem as an endless quiet, non responsive time is actually an answer.
6. When you feel like you can’t make it on your own, you are usually right. You can’t. That’s why Jesus Christ came to Earth.
7. Family is important. That includes your third cousins.
8. Women really don’t know what they want. There is no point to the question “What do Women want?”
9. Your life is not dependent on what others think. So stop running to people for answers.
10. Money is the only contender for God’s place in Man’s life.
will add more as I get ‘enlightened’
God’s Stuff
I found these comics while searching for Christian Comic Strips. Although the author is far from A Christian I still love her work.
Take a look.
