Voyage from Void to Hope


People are excited about things going on in their lives….
You can even be super excited. But nothing excites me more than the Cross of Jesus.
There is nothing truly exciting in this world. In the midst of this serenity nothing is truly calm. Perceptiveness has betrayed us, in acuteness of the Good News it has marketed us garnished gloom, despair, sorrow and vanity. At the end all we endorse is a big void. These bundles are punishments, broken relationships and families. Dreams shattered and lives devastated, and at times they ended sadly before their time.
A wise king of old named Solomon, with the wisdom God gave him, had discerned this great void and vacuum. After achieving all that one could desire or dream of here on earth, He Said, I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.”
What an agony. Let us just ask ourselves if it is worth it or are we just catching the wind or boxing in the air. Is it really good news or just another mirage? (An optical phenomenon in which light rays are bent to produce a displaced image of distant objects)
The Dead Sea displaces a true picture of our world. I am tempted to call the Dead Seas the Selfish Sea. It has a unique quality in that it will push out anything and everything onto the shore. No fish or any kind of living thing can live there. So is called the Dead Sea. No life! There is no marine life in the Dead Sea. The high mineral and salt content of the water make it impossible for fish or plants to live.
This world is just like Dead Sea. Its ceramic beauty is lucrative, adorable but biological and spiritually, it is dead. Materialism, lust and human greed have refused to know any limit. While it may promise fulfillment and abundance, the closer we go to it we find a void. Ask any achiever of the world what he has in his clasp. I will not ever dare to peep inside the life of anyone such, for I know it will be a horror picture of loneliness and scares.
A good teacher once said, “For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will save it."
In quiets of life generations have perished and lost the meaning and substance of life.
Don’t force me to quote from Alexander to Hitler, for you know them all and how their desires to obtain all ended in nothing.
 The only good news I can think of, is that which stands true since 2000 years ago, that the Son of God died for your sins and brought peace between God and man; from going to hell to now citizens of heaven... Hallelujah.
The only hope that which is anchor to my soul is the great promise Jesus Himself gave us.
“In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.”  John 14:2-3
My prayer for you is that if you are still reading this, may God may give you grace to understand His love for you. May He reveal Himself to you.
 “Therefore I tell you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus be cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.”  1 Corinthians 12:3
 “Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven.” Matthew 16:17

 This is how Solomon the Wise king concludes...
Meany call it Life's Final Exam.

The Conclusion of the Matter

 "Not only was the Teacher wise, but also he imparted knowledge to the people. He pondered and searched out and set in order many proverbs. The Teacher searched to find just the right words, and what he wrote was upright and true. The words of the wise are like goads, their collected sayings like firmly embedded nails—given by one Shepherd. Be warned, my son, of anything in addition to them. Of making many books there is no end, and much study wearies the body. Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole [duty] of man. For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil." Ecclesiastes 12:9-14


 God bless…… Jesus is Coming Amen

Blue Fairy and Jesus

One day I watched movie “Artificial Intelligence”. 
  I thought what happen if God might just be like that Blue Fairy to whom David kept praying for 2000 years ? He watched her form a distance for over 2000 years and prayed, but she won't answer, she kept smiling submerged underwater... 
David was a advance robot. Especially designed to love and feel. He was abandoned by the family, which brought him home when their child was in coma to fill the gap of that child but was soon abandoned once their child was whole and came back to family.
Now David the robot deeply in love with the mother he wanted her to love him. but since he is a robot (abandoned because of been robot) he thinks if some how he could become the real boy the mother will take him back and love him like her son.
He heard a story during his stay with the family. He heard of Pinocchio the wood puppet and a sweet Blue Fairy. The Blue Fairy in love for Pinocchio she made this wood puppet a real boy. Now David the machine boy had this strong belief like the way fairy the blue one made the puppet Pinocchio a real boy if David ask blue fairy she will make him a real boy.
Well making the long story short David did find the blue Fairy. She was submerged in water (only a statue) and this poor robot sat in front of her and kept praying for 2000 years.
 "Fairy please make me a real boy" but  she kept smiling with not utterance and answer to David’s prayer.
Well just think some point.
1:-That was robot who was limited to his programing and robotic understanding prayed to a statue of a fairy, a comic character believing to get answers to prayers, but we indigenous human been with full capacity to understand, comprehend, analyze, feel and react still miss on this simple fact that God our maker is a living God. He made us not we made Him nor can we.
Think of our earthly of bodily fathers if we make comic character and call that our father, how much furious our father would be and how much we will insult him if we do so?
If so much is with our earthly father how much more it will impact to our God the heavenly Feather.
2:- God is not distance. He is our loving father. He love to give us the rightful desires of our hearts. He won’t make us go in to an unstoppable anguish where we are LONELY, DESPAIR AND HOPELESS and crying out to God the Father for help and He won't answer. Bible tells us that God in near to those who call unto Him.
Can you identify yourself? I could, when I was doomed in various troubles and looked for those I thought are gods for help, waited patiently just for some relief/answers that never came. I too felt like David stuck in repetition of those endless chants of expectations. I couldn't have gone that long like David, inc fact my life could have ended long before. Note because of limit of human age as it is indeed but situations of life must have killed me  but thanks God! Jesus found me. 
Now you know why I love Jesus because I have no one to look for. Because one exist But Him.. JESUS.. "Jesus Christ is the Overseer of souls" 1Peter 1 Peter 2:25  

 Just call out to Him.. Say God I want you. He will be right there for you. Say I want to know you, pray make me the man you want me to be. I invite you in my heart.

Write back to me after this prayer.. Go for wonderful experience with God.
But even if you don't believe God is still good and He loves us.


"He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous." Matthew 5:45
