Humour

Image
  F.E Smith was a British General from 1915 to 1919.   He was a humorous debater.   One day a man came to him and narrated his story, because of the driver’s negligence, he met with an accident, his elbow was broken and he showed his big bandage.   He demanded compensation for the same.   Smith told that man that he wanted to check to what extent he was affected because of the accident.   So he requested him to lift his hand as high as possible.   That wounded man with much struggle lifted his hand up to his shoulder.   There was pain on his face.   Smith told him now I want to see before the accident to what level you could lift your hand.   That man with much curiosity lifted his hand above his head. Alas, his petition was cancelled.

Worry Box

  Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and He shall sustain thee. A manager of a company often come across big problems.   This gave him lot of worry.   To stop worrying about his problem, he did something.   He made a worry box.   He used to write down his problem that gave him worry and put it inside the worry box.   After putting inside the worry box he will force himself to stop worry about that problem.   After a week when he opened the worry box most of his problems were already solved.   Dear children of God we do have a worry box.   Put everything inside that worry box and you can stay calm and cool to watch those problems getting solved.   Yes dears, Jesus is our Worry Box.

Lack of knowledge

Image
  My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. The percentage of wounded soldiers in wars who are saved keeps on increasing.   Nowadays many soldiers who are deadly injured also got saved because of advancement in medical science.   The real knowledge about the disease enable the doctors to cure the disease completely.   In the same way lack of knowledge about the word of God and the lack of spiritual discernment about many things led to the destruction of many of us.  

Track fixed

Image
  1000 years ago there were many types of running race in Greece. One such race was torch race. They must run with a burning flame and when they complete the race the flame must still burn, otherwise they will lose. This can be compared with our life God has given in this world. We must run in the track fixed by God at the same time the fire of love, holiness, peace, goodness, patience, humility should not get extinguished, otherwise we will lose the race.

Life changing power

  A group of well-educated social service activist went to a tribal village. They have to walk through forests for a long distance to arrive at the village. To their surprise they saw a small boy reading a book. They went near him and asked what he was reading. Again to their surprise the boy replied that he was reading the Bible. One among them replied to the boy that reading the Bible personally is not relevant to their lives today because it was written two thousand years ago and today's life has changed so much. The boy replied to them, true sir the world has changed so much but if my villagers were not taught to read by few people who came here years ago and if our people had not read the Bible, by now they would have surrounded you and killed all of you and preparing to cook and eat you all. This book I am reading today saved your lives and changed our lives too.  The power of Jesus' love and the power of the Word of God are so GREAT.
