To those who hunger to know the meaning of Silence!
Many times I would retire myself to remain in silence and I seek for it. It had always helped me. It would feed the need of my hour! How? I have never explored it! I began to ponder on it!
What does this 'Silence' do to me?! Because every time the strength of silence I derived was awesome! Especially when it fills the deep longings of my heart!
I think I am beginning to understand!
In the power of that 'killing' silence I realized there is 'Life' that comes in! As much as it could be 'killing' in a way it could speak, I understood how much it could bring 'Life' in to my whole being!
How it could replenish my every cell that cries out in joy 'Oh It is 'Life' and it is filling!
I have always sought for 'Life', a meaningful 'Life'! Everywhere I went, in everyone I met with, but everyone seem to be lost! Sometime it made me wonder, what is that everyone is looking for! What is the very thing that drives everyone! True to their being ,do they really know if they are really happy!
In the depth of silence, I understood I am getting into to a new world of my being that makes me understand the power of 'life'!
Savior and His silence! I am deeply struck by it! Power of the Cross! Did that 'killing' silence brought life into the whole humanity? It is worth to think about it!
In the 'Depth' of Silence, In those 'Piercing' words of 'Silence' you find 'Life'!
And my Saviour did exactly the same! In 'Silence' He took my shame, my pain, my tears, my wounds, my failures, my hopelessness, my loneliness, my hurt, my weaknesses, my sins! He receives all that I am and all I give Him, but in silence, just by being there!
In that very silence, there is love, there is acceptance, there is comfort!
I am not questioned, I am not justified for my good and bad. Words of Silence were spoken and said 'I am loved the way I am and I am accepted they way I am'!
What kind of response of love this could be which is spoken through Silence!
It is surely a mystery to me!
I have 'life' today! As I hear the sound of Silence, I hear my Savior telling me, 'I give you life, the Everlasting life'!
Do you hear the sound Today, the Sound of Silence?!
Get into the Deep woods of silence! You would know what I mean!
Have we ever thought about this fact?
'when we leave the old things/life and decide to follow what is right, we know what we are leaving behind and what we are getting into!'
"Be still before the LORD, all mankind, because he has roused Himself from His holy dwelling."

When God Wants A Man!
[Anonymous]
When God wants to drill a man and thrill a man and skill a man...
When God wants to mould a man to play the noblest part;
When He yearns with all His heart to create so great and bold a man that all the world shall
be amazed
Watch His methods; watch His ways!
How He ruthlessly perfects whom He royally elects...
How He hammers him and hurts him, and with mighty blows converts him into frail shapes of clay that only God understands.
How His tortured heart is crying and he lifts beseeching hands...
How He bends but never breaks when His good He undertakes.
How He uses whom He chooses...with every purpose fuses him;
by every act induces him to try His splendor out...
God knows what He's about!
When God wants to take a man and shake a man and wake a man...
When God wants to make a man to do the Future's will;
He tries with all His skill...
When He yearns with all His soul to create him large and whole...with what cunning
He prepares him...how He goads and never spares him!
How He whets him and He frets him and in poverty begets him...
How often He disappoints whom He sacredly anoints!
With what wisdom He will hide him; never minding what betide him...
Though His genius sob with slighting and His pride may not forget;
Bids him struggle harder yet!
Makes him lonely so that only God's high messages shall reach him...
So that He may surely teach him what the hierarchy planned;
And though he may not understand...gives him passions to command.
How remorselessly He spurs him...with terrific ardor stirs him
When He poignantly prefers him.
When God wants to name a man and fame a man and tame a man...
When God wants to shame a man to do His Heavenly best;
When He tries the highest test that His reckoning may bring...
When He wants a God or king;
How He reins him and restrains him so His body scarce contains him...
While He fires him and inspires him…
Keeps him yearning, every burning for that tantalizing goal.
Lures and lacerates His soul...
sets a challenge for His spirit;
Draws it highest then he's near it!
Makes a jungle that he clear it; makes a desert that he fear it...and subdue it, if he can --
so doth God make a man!
Then -- to test His spirit's wrath --
throw a mountain in His path; puts a bitter choice before him and relentlessly stands o'er him...
Climb or perish, so He says...but watch His purpose, watch His ways.
God's plan is wondrous kind -- could we understand His mind ?
Fools are they who call His blind! When His feet are torn and bleeding;
yet His spirit mounts unheeding...blazing newer paths and finds;
When the Force that is Divine leaps to challenge every failure, and
His ardor still is sweet --
and love and hope are burning in the presence of defeat!
Lo the crisis, Lo the shouts that would call the leader out...
When the people need salvation doth he rise to lead the nation;
Then doth God show His plan...and the world has found a man!

Remember Your Creator In The Days Of Your YOUTH!
"REMEMBER YOUR CREATOER IN THE DAYS OF YOUR YOUTH..."
Eccl.12:1
How my heart longs for those children and youth to know the Lord at their young age!
My life would have tasted the Lord much deeper had I knwown the Lord early in my life. But I know my Savior had a plan for my life.
Plans to...
To make me strong
To teach me His ways
To walk me in His paths
To wash me from ALL my unrighteousness
To guide me in the paths of wilderness
To show me what it means to be loved by the unconditional love
There is more...there is more!
Know Him EARLY, know Him DEEP! Know His love for you today!
'Behold, now is the acceptable time, now is the day of salvation,'
2 Corinthians 6:2b
Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.
1 Tomothy 4:12
Daniel. Man known for his bold faith in the Lord
Young and energitic. Tasted the Lord early in His life
To these four young men God gave knowledge and understanding of all kinds of literature and learning.
The king found them ten times better than all
Dan.1:17-20
1 O God, You are my God; EARLY WILL I SEEK YOU; Psalm 63:1
You can have everything your heart has ever desired, but without God, you will always feel empty and unfulfilled.
Today you have a God, who listens to your heart's cry. Who wants to comfort you. Who wants to love you with an unconditional love. Who wants to be your friend. Who wants to be your companion.
Seek Him early. You would find Him!

Pilgrimage! - 'In Whose Hearts Are The Highways'
Blessed are those whose strength is in You,
Who have set their hearts on Pilgrimage
[ in whose hearts are the highways ].
As they pass through the valley of Baca [ weeping ],
They make it a place of springs;
The autumn rains also cover it with pools.
They go from strength to strength,
Till each appears before God in Zion.
- Psalm 84:5-7
This Journey could be through Dry, Difficult and Dangerous places.
What's the Motivation and the courage to make this journey!!?
Privilege of connecting with God Himself.
It is an effort to travel to meet with God.
It is an internal, unquenchable passion.
Any obstacle could be overcome!
Baca is a variety of balsam plant that can survive in dry condition.
Are you going through a valley of 'Baca'?!
You have the heart of Pilgrimage "In whose hearts are the Highways".
