And My Eyes Gazed at the FRAME- paul vattikuti

A seven year old boy named Jason was starring at the front Garden of his house when he heard his mother yelling out in a loud voice to her husband,"Jason's Dad,are you ready?,Come on did you fill the bottles,we are getting late,Load the car!" It was a bright Sunday morning and the summer vacations had already began.Jason's family had decided to go for a picnic.There was a huge chaos going on in the house.They were already late by 2 hours.They were worrying a lot about the things.Jason's mother brought a suitcase to put it in the car.As she was going towards the car ,she saw her seven year Old son starring at the sparrows getting wet in the fountain water .As she loaded the suitcase in the car and went back to take something else,Jason looked at her and gave her a smile then again looked at the sparrows and then looked inside the main hall.
Jason's mother was in a hurry so she did not enquire of him.She shouted again,"Jason's dad ,did you finish your work,help me ,Everything is over me!" After that she brought a box to load the car.As she went towards the car ,this time she saw Jason starring at the dancing lilies of the garden.As she went back to take some more luggage,Jason looked at her,he smiled at her again,had a glimpse at the lilies again and peeped inside the hall again.This was intriguing her.She took hold of Jason and took him to the hall and asked what he was looking at.
Jason replied in his sweet voice with innocence,"Mom I was looking at this Frame (Pointing towards a Frame) which has a bible verse on it saying 'You are more worthy than the lilies of the garden and the sparrows of the sky,they don't work but yet the father in heaven feeds the sparrows and makes the sun shine on the lilies,how much more he must be loving you,stop worrying '"
He continued,"Mamma,God says that we are more worthy than the sparrows and the lilies,Yet I see you worrying more than them,Look the lilies are dancing in the winds,the sparrows are enjoying in the water,but you being so loved by Our father in heaven are not willing to enjoy his blessings"
Tears rolled down her eyes as jason said those things.She was amazed by his words.She hugged him tightly.
We too in our life wrap ourselves in problems, covering ourselves with stress and negative emotions,worries of the future,what we will wear/eat.
This act does not let the blessings of Our father to fall on us.Eventhough he bestows best of the blessings,we don't notice it because we are covered with worries.
Stop worrying and enjoy Gods presence.
Remember,
You are more worthy than the lilies and the sparrows.
Stay blessed.
( I was roaming aimlessly in my bedroom wondering what work I have to do when I reach home because I was in my village ,I was worrying because i had to do a lot of work before my exams.I came out of the bedroom and saw a Frame on the wall, On the frame was a psalm of David praising God.That's when God talked to me AND MY EYES GAZED AT THE FRAME,and I wrote this article.I couldn't do anything until I reached home.so worrying would be in vain.So I decided to enjoy the few hours which were left .Praise God.)

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
