  • TEMPTATION

    The wind blows gently. There is a subtle silence. Floral fragrance around. The sun has almost set and dusk has begun. Judas is alone. The tempter is by his side. His weakness is known. He hears the sweet gentle voice. He lends his ears and the devil moves into him and dwells in him.

    Judas, this world will know you.

    Judas, every mother will tell about you.

    Judas, your name will spread far and wide.

    Judas, every writer will describe you.

    Judas, eye has not seen nor, ear heard the things prepared for you.

    Judas, you will not lack anything.

    Judas, you will be like the olive tree.

    Judas, you are the candlestick and you will sit beside me.

    Judas, you will be with me eternally.

    Judas, I am the king of this world and you are my son.

    Do it!

    “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, As a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Peter 5:8).

  • FATHER TO HIS SON

    My son, When you were hungry I fed you.
    When you were thirsty I quenched your thirst.
    When you were crying I wiped your tears.
    When you stumbled I held you.
    When you were sick I healed you.
    When you were lonely I was your companion.
    When the world hated you, I loved you
    .

    My son, I washed your feet,

    yet you betrayed Me.

    I love you My son.

    John Mark

  • BE HUMBLE, BE EXALTED

    “When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him. And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed” (Matthew 8:1,2,3).

    St. Francis of Assisi was too wealthy. He had a fear and abhorrence of lepers. One day, while riding his horse near Assisi, he met a man afflicted with leprosy. The sight of the leper filled him with horror and disgust; he was shocked and disturbed, but he got off the horse and kissed him. The leper put out his hand hoping to receive something. Out of compassion, Francis gave money to the leper.

    But when Francis mounted his horse again and looked all around, he could not see the leper anywhere. He realised that it was Lord Jesus whom he had just kissed.

    Francis could have neglected and passed away but he heard that still small voice that guided him to stop, reach out and embrace the man with leprosy.

    That gesture of humbleness and obedience to the Lord’s voice transformed him to be a mighty saint of God. Lord Jesus Christ guided Saint Francis to minister even to the Muslim kings and to baptise them.

    “Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares” ( Hebrews 13:2).

    “Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away” (1 Corinthians 13:4-8).

    God will humble us and test us to know what is in our heart. He who has pity and lends to the poor, lends to the LORD, and God will bless him multifold.

    Help the poor and the needy. Pray for the sick. Visit the widows and the fatherless, bless them and be blessed forever.

    FOLLOW JESUS.
