Aaaachoooo

Well I think the most talked about , the most feared or most forwarded whatsapp messages is about the Coronavirus! Many must also be wondering why I have not been writing all these days -yes must admit have been laid back but nothing to do with the virus 😊

But it’s alarming to see and know how this virus has taken the world by storm . It’s traveled ticketless to most parts of the world 😅

I see advertisements doing the rounds - 50% off to the theme parks , 75% off for certain attractions and steal deals in vacations ! Wish I could avail all of these offers as they are super duper deals. However people are avoiding crowded places , avoiding travel etc and hence the slash in rates! Why is it that rates are inflated and then slashed down when people are so weary of risking it🙄

 Two days back me and my son were in a mall and he happen to sneeze - aaachoooo and every head turned and eyes lifted to us ! While they looked scared and worried we had a good laugh ! But jokes aside people are scared to sneeze or cough or even be next to people who have such symptoms. 

What should we do ? Hit the panic button ? 

Definitely not ! 
Just before the Israelites moved out from Egypt to the promised land , God commanded the Israelites to apply the blood of  blemishless lambs on the sides and tops of door frames before He brought about the 10th plague ! The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are, and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt [ Exodus 12-13 ]. None of the Israelites or their livestock’s perished but every first born of the Egyptians and first born of their livestock perished ! [ please read Exodus 11&12 for more information ]. This event is called the "The Passover" in the Bible 

If the blood of lambs could protect the Israelites , how much more would we be protected in the blood of Jesus Christ! Hope we can take a hold of this and believe that there is victory in the Blood of Christ  ! 

Just declare and decree the Blood of Christ upon our lives! He is Jehovah Shalom - The Prince of Peace . Let Him be our portion of peace when there is fear & strife . He is Yahweh , He is Elohim , our Living God . 

“and call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me.””
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭50:15‬ 

 “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.”‭Psalms‬ ‭46:10-11‬ ‭

The Watch Repairer

Image
Couple of my watches required battery replacement …. but oufff the price in this region to change the battery can be more expensive than buying a new watch 🫠 However we figured out the place where we could get original batteries at half price and with a guarantee for 2 years .. woooo that was amazing .  The watch repairer was a very unassuming person who took his tools and carefully opened the side of the watch where the battery had to be replaced.  And boy the insides of the watch looked so amazing … intricately done and it needed someone with precision and understanding to get the watch working again . He also cleaned the inside and reset the time, date and in few minutes my watch was working and looked as good as new with a little bit of cleanup too in the inside and outside !! This got me thinking !! We have been made so wonderfully and crafted so intricately in the inside. When we come to the end of our resources or feel depleted within, come to the Maker. He calls us to...

The wrong pin 🙃

Image
All excited for our ladies day out , I headed to meet my friend for a time of fun and gastronomic treats . I followed the location pin she shared with me and once I heard “ you have arrived, your destination is to your right "  very expectantly I stepped out but to my utter disappointment could not locate the building where my friend lived. I argued with the security that the building should be somewhere around and that he might not be aware 🫢.  However when I called my friend she agreed to have made the mistake of sending me the location pin of her office instead of the residence pin 📌 🙆‍♀️. Humbled and apologising to the security I now had to reroute and drive to the right address being behind our schedule by 45 mins .   Putting things into perspective and applying this into life , how often do we blindly follow people , ideas , religion, and end up in places and situations that we least expect.   How is it we are so blind to the fact that there is only one TRUT...

For we are to God the fragrance of Christ

2 Corinthians   2:15   One Sunday morning on one of my metro rides in Delhi , I got super impressed when I saw a young gentleman(non Indian) carrying a big Bible with him . During our very short conversation he told me that he is new in Delhi and still figuring out a church to go to . I was happy to help and decided to give him my number when he asked me for the same.   However this was a bad decision. Despite him knowing that I have a family he started   to bother me with unwanted calls . It was getting too much that my husband had to intervene. He was upset that I trusted a stranger with my number. However I got easily misled by the big Bible that he was carrying and thought he would be a fine gentleman! Must say this incident left me to be more wiser and discerning. Carrying a Bible does not mean that we carry Christ like qualities in us . Christ like qualities translate into actions . This can only happen when we become not only hearers ...
