WHAT TRUST MEANT TO ME

Life is short. Forgive quickly. Love truly. I still remember these words which were told in the end of a movie I watched recently (I am not sure of the movie’s name). Everyone seems to live in a world of their own besides the world we live in. One’s world has one’s families, friends, dreams, goals, all that you love doing and want to do someday and everything that’s close to one’s heart. There are many you would imitate, enjoy being with, love dearly and even trust.   I remember a friend of mine quoting from the Deccan Chronicle- these days enemies are as good as friends cause the word called Trust does not exist anymore. Does it exist? There were times when I thought I could trust none than my own self. There were reasons for this principle that I once followed like- what if my friends spill the beans?

It is good to go down the memory lane each time you want to cherish those wonderful moments, those old days you loved and wanted it to last a lifetime.  if u aim at nothing, you'll hit it..  It is about hitting the bull’s eye or the ring closer to it that I want to put to paper. There was a time when I like a log in a stream of water kept drifting where the current led.

Well, I could have just said, “I want to be doc or an Engineer”, the only professions we knew that time (though we knew teaching was a profession, one never gave a thought to it). But I was true to myself when I said a ‘NO’. I was someone who kept walking where the path that I walked on led me. “If you aim at nothing, you will hit it” was the comment I got .I think it was Mr. John who made it.

SAVED BY GRACE

It was a cold dark night And up in the sky The stars shone bright When I let a cry To the One who was waiting And at the door of my heart knocking Hear me, save me, cleanse me With your blood you shed for me Create a clean heart in me And reign in me, Lord I wanna be yours The joy that filled my soul No words could say As I gazed at the stars All I wanted to say Lord, I want to for you shine And make me wholly thine ..this happened long back at school. It was the time when I really wanted someone to hold on and I let the Creator take control. And it was Amazing Grace .... that saved me! Below are a few lines from 'Only Grace' by Mathew West: Your sins are gone Without a trace And there's nothing left now There's only grace You're starting over now Under the sun You're stepping forward now A new life has begun. This new life, God gives us, is the new you.Reborn. ... I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.(John10:10)  ... God gi...
