Let me Bear Fruit...

a long week is getting over... a week of mixed fortunes.... nothing so bad or nothing so good... everything went smoothly...

today had cell... was kind of emotional time...we were supposed to share about our quite time based on John 15:1-17... the portion says about how God prunes us and enable us to bear fruits.... while i was doing my quite time, after reading the portion, i thought about last few years in my life... especially last 5 years... starting from 2003...i looked back at those moments when i was being pruned... those were tough moments... they went on to the extend i asked God whether He is real or not... At times i felt, i didn't want to be a christian anymore... but all those while, God's love was real to me... those things that were cut off from me, were all precious to me... things i loved more than anything else... so it hurt the most when those things were taken away from me... BUT when i look back... i have changed a lot... from someone who was once called the most notorious guy in a school of 3000 students to someone who was called the most patient guy some of my friends have ever met... it wasn't easy road to travel... it wasn't a highway... it was a road with lot of gutters and humps... every fall was painful... but i am no longer the same person who was 5 years before... i can see lot of changes in me...

today jeremy prayed for me... i don't know whether u remember me writing down in this blog somewhere that IN 2007, I WENT THROUGH THE VALLEY OF SHADOW OF DEATH... BUT IN 2008, I WILL RUN TO THE MOUNTAINS WITH THE FEET OF A DEER... today while praying, Jeremy spoke the same thing to me... it was a kind of conformation for me... Yes... its going to happen... i will run to mountains of greater height than i ever thought of...

i got my leave approved this week... so am happy about that... but my dad is sick... that makes my happiness disappear... do keep him in prayers and also my mom...

tomorrow got soccer match... our opponents seem to be very good... and the game is on the same ground where i first started playing for TCC... i made horrible mistakes then... i don't know how it will be tomorrow... hoping not to make any errors... to an extend i am stressed and i am having bad head ache too...so i am off to sleep now... take care.. God Bless
