The Knock

The Knock
                         -paul vattikuti
       Going through the ups and downs of the Life,I was very weary.I was all alone .No one loved me .I locked myself in a room.Tears rolled down my eyes as the flashback slided my sight.The people who left me alone along the path of my Life, leaving me helpless.
As I was weeping I heard a knock on my door. I gazed at the door pondering who must have visited.Remembering the emptiness in my life I ignored it and started crying.Suddenly I heard another knock.This was intriguing me.I rushed to the portal and unlocked the door.I found no one standing there.Depressed by it I sat on my couch. I again heard the knock .As I Got up from my couch ,I realized that yes it was someone knocking.But there was no one at the door.But the knock was inside my heart. The gentle voice whispering,"Let me in my child,you are not alone ,am with you,allow me to speak to you the time has come" .It is because I was attached to the pattern of this world that led my instinct to open the door (As the world opens the door on hearing the knock) But as the Bible says ,"Don't stick to the pattern of this world." Its time to hear the knock within your heart .Look there's someone standing at the threshold of your heart ,knocking.

My Omnipresent God

It was Sunday morning as I paced up through the corridor of my house ,holding my guitar and trying to keep my untied shoe lace from getting tangled. "How come I got up late! Why did I consent the nap to have my time." As I walked through the road, I started pondering on my behaviour. I mean how could I...its not about today...but from past few Sundays am allowing my sleep to have extra time and I end up being late at the church! Its my responsibility to lead the choir! When the pastor preaches the sermon ,I get distracted and start wandering in my thoughts and I don't even bother to shift my attention back! I resent this behaviour of mine! " I came from the church not as happy and satisfied as I would come back when I started knowing God deeply! I was going through a lot..i don't know what was wrong with me ! Was I missing someone? Huh... I started worrying when a drop of tear filled my eyes . And the fact is I did not know why was I crying. I ended up

MY POUNDING HEART

"It was magical! I could hear it beating, even in the cold. What was it that was stopping me from falling into the depths of death. My heart was still pounding." It was a mess! A total mess! if anything was too difficult to figure out definitely it would be my life. I was lost completely. After my breakup, I completely lost myself. It was my 2nd breakup this year.How could I be so wrong in making decisions? I had no sense of what I was doing. Mood certainly affects behaviour. I did not talk to my parents properly. I used to get angry at dad for silly reasons. I was becoming an introvert day by day.I did not know what to do. I started hating all the people around me. I blamed the people who had done this to me. I couldn’t trust anyone because all I was carrying was hatred. I used to speak less , sleep more, eat more junk foods and eventually would fall ill. No one saw what I had gone through , all that people could see is my change in behaviour  . My tears dried

The Melancholy in Her Smile

"The Joy which your arduous efforts yield, far outweighs the weight of the affliction you carried" "How well she knows me, ha ha," we both chuckled. It was yet another Friday night for me, suddenly I felt compelled to call my best friend ruth who was out of station for her studies. we have had a special bonding knowing each other all these years. we used to text each other every day and voice calling was sporadic. everything was unusual about that night. I had my exams the next day and I was busy searching her name on the contact list. "Hello" , I said to spark a conversation. she responded by saying "hi" in a hushed tone. seeking an answer to the unusuality I just encountered I asked her whether everything was alright or not. Assuringly she said yes.everything is fine. still unappeased I asked her about her health. She seemed to be whooping throughout the conversation. she kept on assuring me again and again. "hey wa
