+++++++++++++Finding happiness and peace !+++++++++++++++

 The soap was not in dish!
 The shirt was not in hanger!
 The lock has no key!
 The fridge is too hot!
 Oh! What a terrible mess
 My home is!
 Last 30 years I lost my peace
 Setting the house in order!
The soap refuses the dish?
The shirt hates the hanger!
 The key always slips off!
 The fridge is never cool!
 Oh ! What a life !
Let me take a pill
And have a peaceful sleep !
Oh ! the pill is not there!
Something in me asked me to pray.
On my knees I prayed
‘Jesus,where is the peace
You gave this world ?
Where is it?
I heard Jesus speak
“Son,it’s in your heart !
Didn’t I say I neither leave you
 nor forsake you.
You did n't find peace
As you looked in wrong places !
It’s in you
In your heart !
Forget everything else
Rejoice in the Lord!
Day and night !
Peace will never leave
Unless you choose to!
Many years you have lost
Looking for peace
at the wrong places
Now, double up
 your rejoicing
and claim back
 what the locusts have eaten !
Rejoice ! Rejoice !
In the Lord !

And peace is back! 
Enjoy !life is yours !

+++++++++++++++++++ What Is Worship ?++++++++++++++++++

 As I was dissolving
 Deep into worship
 I seem to hear
 A little whisper
Whom are you really worshipping?
‘ The Lord of course!’
 I replied firmly.
‘Are you sure ?’
The whisper continued.
I thought for a while.
True,many a time,
I realized
I have been ‘worshipping’
Not the Lord,but
 The melodious music,
the  orchestra’s wavy moves,
The stealing lyrics,
 the dancing guys and girls
Singing the chorus !
 The cozy AC of the hall
 And everything
Except the Lord!
What is ‘worship’ ?
Worship is a spiritual condition
Connecting one’s heart to the Lord!
Worship is not  coordinated
Movement of lips and limbs !
Its spontaneous love
Welling from deep within
A clean holy heart!
Thanking God for what you are !

And who He is !
