Adding a bit of color ....

Ah i think how excited we get about doing something new and then goes for a while and it dies their dusted. Same with me and my dear blog which i have left to eternity.

Trying to add some color back to this page  :)

The Fall season always amazes me with it's beauty 

Walks are always pleasant when you have a friend to gossip and at the same time capture the beauty of nature and creation. Admiring the creator :)

We step out of the home and cross over a beautiful bridge and there  in the pathway of a government building are these stretch of trees with leaves of green , red , orange  and yellow.

A treat to the eyes and as we stare at the tree we look up to the dried leaves falling off the tree.
We walk along cross a road and their lies the beauty of the banks of river Mississippi.Along of the bank of river are yet another stretch of treeWe watch people in a canon and another heads a speed boat.Watch , look ,admire and amaze.

Further more into the woods and still walking along the bank of the river.Come across huge trees and the leaves shimmering like silver in the Sun's raysWalk across a couple of more bridge capture all we can in our camera and then we took a break along side the river.
The silent waves of the water , the sounds of the leaves rustling , shimmering leaves and cold wind breeze. We just watch , sit and admire and thankful to have the blessing to cherish :) 

And it all made me to get back , dust up this blog back and tell you all my stories :)
Hope i keep my pace going.

Hand Bell Choir !!!

The service began with a beautiful instrumental number and instrument was Bells a line of around 10 people were standing with all different sizes of Bells they either hold the bell to ring it or play it with a small padded mallet like the one used to play the Drums.......

It's was so awesome... I have never seen a hand bell choir before it was so amazing....Thank God for this church i have been tooo... had a good time today..

My Valentine

Okay .. Now can’t keep it anymore with myself… time to reveal my very special Valentine.

I love this person so much, a special gift from above for which I will be thankful to my Heavenly Father the whole of my lifetime. Looks like it was all God’s Plan for He put both of us together in this world to know each other to care , to comfort , to laugh, to cry , to forgive ,to love and many more. I grew up not realizing the very fact the person who loved me most was right beside me and has dedicated the whole life for me. A wonderful friend, a guide who taught me to nurture the Love of the Lord, totally depend and hold on to Him no matter what circumstances life would lead to.

Well well … It’s none other than my Mom (Amma) and It’s her Birthday today ..Wish you a very Happy Birthday Amma……..Love You!!!!

Wish everyone a Happy Valentine’s day!!!!Have a great time with your Valentine……I did J

Faith of a Mustard seed

Matthew 17: 20 (NKJ)

So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.

This particular verse from the Bible always surprised me …Why did God ever compare our faith to mustard seed??? I trust the Lord in everything; Our faith could be compared with something else other than such a tiny little mustard seed. This question always kept ringing in my mind?? Why Lord??

It was the 22^nd of Dec 2008 all at home in Christmas mood, in between Jerry (my brother) was down with fever and vomiting. We consulted the doctor and he said it was due to food poison and prescribed the medicines. It was 25^th Christmas and we got ready to go to church Jerry didn’t seem well still, he picked up enough strength to go to church since it was Christmas but was feeling very uncomfortable. Since the fever hasn’t subsided we consulted a second doctor on 30^th and after the blood test the reports showed positive for Jaundice. After bit of enquiry around our place we came to know that a lady just near my house gave medicine for Jaundice, Dad consulted her and she asked to take the medicine the very next day which was the 1st Jan 2009.

The excitement of the New Year hovered around everywhere and Jerry had to take the first dose of medicine for jaundice. He took the medicine then we dropped Jerry home and went to church, unlike other days in church I sat down with a heavy heart since Jerry could not attend the New Year service though within I was asking the Lord to heal him. The day went by, and then he had another two doses of the medicine the following weeks. Physical we could not see much improvement in him and now it was two weeks with the medicine and time for the blood test to check the Bilirubin count (usually checked for jaundice). After a long wait through the day dad brought the reports, he face didn’t show any happiness I was just expecting that it would be reduced, but to all our shock the count has doubled since the first test. Our heart broke, we convinced ourselves by thinking the reports would be wrong (my conscious pricking how can the reports be wrong ??????). We took the reports in another hospital the next day but it very well stated that the previous reports were correct :(.

One of my uncle said they give medicine for Jaundice at a place near Charminar , so we took Jerry there and we could see him improving though very gradually ,but yes he was improving :). I was really happy until then , on Feb 12 early morning I woke up to find out that Jerry had vomited in the night(Now this wasn’t a good sign .. all thoughts ringing again was he improving??? Is there some other problem?? What was his problem??? … Till this time I had put my trust and FAITH in the Lord, I totally looked on to him with all prayers .Now I lost that FAITH. I was really depressed. I didn’t want to pray neither do anything, I waited for him so much with all trust and hope and now this is what I hear. I was broken couldn’t let anyone else know but after sometime still was consoling myself and tried to divert my mind to my work. But in vain, the thought was still ringing in my mind. We have a prayer fellowship in my office, so somehow I wanted to attend that especially this day. And the message there to my surprise was about the ‘Faith of a mustard seed’ I was taken back, was it all for me???? I prayed and asked the Lord to forgive me for how within a fraction of second I lost the FAITH in him.

My heavenly father was so grateful to me and taught me the lesson of “FAITH OF A MUSTARD SEED”

I thank HIM for teaching me this lesson. Jerry is completely recovered and he rather will come out as a greater witness for the Lord. I thank the Lord for the change he brought in Jerry’s life too :) and for HIS abundant love and grace upon our family. All four of us Jerry, Appa , Amma & myself went through a very difficult time but it has helped us and taught us such amazing things we need to overcome in Life.

For all people out there this is my message ‘Just keep up the faith in HIM alone’. It might take time either days, months or even years but his LOVE is so amazing and unfailing. He never leaves us nor forgets us.

If the trails come, He’s taking His time so that we can become stronger in Him.

Well all this made my mind hoggle, boggle and yippee I have opened my account in blogging.
