The Paradigm shift 🙌

How much do you love  ??

Some of us can’t see the pain that our spouse , siblings , close friends or our relatives go through . We would want to do all it takes ,to do what is within our ability, that would help in bringing about a change in their situation . We get easily hassled , perturbed and give up our trust and hope ! However  many situations are so beyond us, and we need a supernatural intervention . We need God to come and turn things around !

Chatting via zoom and seeking prayers for a divine intervention in an urgent need of a loved one , this friend very earnestly prayed over the need . While winding up the call , she said, a close family member of hers is currently behind bars and been convicted for 10 years of prison sentence [ wrongly accused by the in-laws ]. This broke my heart . Questions like - is she hurting, is she shattered about it , is she worried about the person ?

What she said blew me and my thinking !! Mini - we have been praying that my “so&so” follows the ways of the Lord and if this is the only way that “So& So” gets to know of the Lord then - Let His will be done !! May be this time of separation would give him time to think more and surrender his life to God . It is tough but God has a purpose in it ! God can turn things around and can bring justice in this situation once he surrenders his life to God- Was what she had to say ! 

That was one of the greatest paradigm shift ever that I came across ! From a state of hopelessness to a state of hopefulness ! Yes , some people has to be taken through the valley experiences in life before they reach the mountain top experiences ! But the valleys are not devoid of streams and provisions . It's in those situations that we look up - not to the mountains - but to the one who has made the mountains and the valleys ! 

He definitely will set the captives free and that’s the promise that we have in Him ! Some people have an easy life , some people's lives are filled with challenges . And there are some who don't learn unless they are taught the hard way. Someone asked me why I am so passionate about my God ? Cause it looked like my life was seamless to her! Sometimes people only see the tip of the iceberg and not what people have gone through ! Many battles have been waged some which has been won some vanquished but when our banner is Christ then every defeat becomes a victory !

So let’s looks at the bigger things that we need to know and understand ! The world and its pleasures and luxuries are all fleeting - but we hold on to what’s eternal and whats true ! 

Hope in these days, eyes & ears be opened to receive the truth and hearts turn to the creator in whom there is love , joy , peace and everlasting life !

For -All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field;

the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord endures forever.” 1 Peter 24
