You need not be a senior!

You need not be a senior!

Luke 2:46 NKJV
" Now so it was that after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions."
Jesus was very young , just 12 years when he got lost in the crowd returning back to his place from the festival of passover.
when His parents found Him at the synagogue teaching and asking questions to the teachers the parents where astonished not even them but the people and the great teachers who were along with Jesus.
" How could this small boy have this much of wisdom and talk like this?"  The teachers would have thought! and even if I would have taken their place as well,  no wonder.
The next verse says , Jesus advanced in Wisdom.
Bible says, when we possess the word of God and be filled with God's wisdom and knowledge from above no wonder that we will be greater than our teachers and wiser in whatever we think and do.
David says in Psalm 119:99
"I am wiser than all my teachers, because I think about your rules. I have more understanding than the elders, because I follow your orders."
sometimes people judge and categorize us based on our physical inabilities , our social backgrounds or lower qualifications ,money wealth and so on and so forth but not everyone on this earth will be gifted with the divine and heavenly wisdom from the Lord which can make us wise even than our elders and teachers.
in the other instance , the Fisher mens whom jesus chose to be His disciples to our amazement were not scholars or big brain super humans with all intellectual powers and famous guys. In fact they were very simple and humble people in fact they were illiterates too.
but Bible records in another instance in Book of acts that
Acts 4:13 NKJV
" Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus."
these fishermen were uneducated but others marveled looking at their courage and boldness in proclaiming the Gospel, understood that they were with Jesus.
In conclusion I would like to encourage you today that , you are no lesser than your teachers if God has kept you that way and has filled you with His knowledge and wisdom from above. Thank him for such marvelous doing in your life but never forget it did not just happen, remember you'll lose them at anytime when you leave His precepts and forget Him and His words, you'll become the greatest fool of this century and for eternity!

Small surprise

There is always a special joy that comes when December begins—an excitement that gently fills our hearts as we enter the Advent season. From December 1st, a mild happiness surrounds us because we remember the birth of Jesus, the true reason we have life and hope. Yesterday, I wasn’t in my room because I had gone for a fellowship, and I returned a little late around 10:15 pm. When I opened my door, to my surprise, my roommate Monika was standing there with a warm smile. She had decorated the room with a hanging star, a Christmas tree, and beautiful lights. The moment I walked in, she switched on the lights, and instantly the whole room lit up. And in that moment, not just the room—but my heart was filled with joy. It was such a simple gesture, yet it ignited something so deep within me… the true mood of the season. It reminded me that even the smallest act of love can brighten an entire month. Her little surprise reflected the greater joy that entered this world when Jesus C...

The Mighty Hand

A day after our Sunday chapel service, my sister and I were returning on a two-wheeler. She was riding, and I was seated behind her. It seemed like a normal ride, but within moments, things changed. Though she was riding slowly, she suddenly lost control, and we both fell. It was a frightening moment, she fell forward, face down on the ground. By God’s grace, no vehicles were coming behind us, which could have made the situation far worse. Though shaken, we somehow found the strength to get up. I held her hand and slowly helped her walk toward the casualty at CMC, where we later met a few friends who assisted us. This morning, Linda shared something that deeply moved my heart. She told me that last night, she kept reliving those moments going back again and again to what had truly happened after the accident. With a sense of wonder, she kept asking me, “Was there anyone else with us when you helped me walk to the casualty?” I kept telling her no. I was certain it was just the two of us...

Finding True Love

Most of the time, we try to find true love in our work life—our careers, passions, family, pets, hobbies, and talents. But the moment these things change, or if something happens to them, everything feels different. For instance, when a relationship breaks, happiness fades and emptiness fills the heart. When a dearly loved pet dies, the joy we once had disappears, leaving behind a deep void. Even our talents—when we stop using them—or when something precious we gained is broken or lost, the joy we once experienced through them seems to vanish completely. And even if we regain those things, we are not always sure that the same happiness will return in the same way it once did. But there is one true joy where we can find lasting fulfillment—a joy that will never be lost. Even if we lose sight of it for a time, when we realize it and return with longing, the joy becomes even greater than before, overflowing in abundance. So what is the difference between worldly joy and true joy? The diff...
