Rest for your weary souls

These are Alsace's stone benches... the resting benches built for the farmers and the women's who carry the heavy luggages and for them to lay it down and rest for a while.
They find it real peace and rest to their souls. If this bench could give them more, imagine the load that we carry every now and then , and I want to let you know that Jesus remains as our resting place and a bench/ resting stone for us to lay it down our heavy burdens where we can truly find rest for our souls. How long does He carry it for us ? Untill the next labour comes ? Like the stone bench ? Nah! He does it for our lifetime, He stays our resting bench and burden exchanger for our lifetime. Stay cheerful knowing that each of us posses a separate bench( Jesus who is a personal God )and need not carry your burden again when another visitor comes to rest !
Jesus - Gives us rest!🙏🏼

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...
