“Beyond the Fairy Tale”

. . . is the title of my very first book! Oh, I can’t tell you how excited I’m about “Beyond the Fairy Tale!”

I was literally carrying the message of this book in my spiritual “womb” for many years. Now, at last, it is coming on a hard copy, for others to hold it on their hands and read it! Not only read it but being changed by its message forever! Fantastic! Oh, I’m more than excited!

May all the glory, praise, honor and worship be to our Lord Jesus Christ! Continue reading “Beyond the Fairy Tale”

Whac-A-Mole

I love playing Whac-A-Mole game. Wikipdia defined Whac-A-Male game this way:

“A typical Whac-A-Mole machine consists of a large, waist-level cabinet with five holes in its top and a large, soft, black mallet. Each hole contains a single plastic mole and the machinery necessary to move it up and down. Once the game starts, the moles will begin to pop up from their holes at random. The object of the game is to force the individual moles back into their holes by hitting them directly on the head with the mallet, thereby adding to the player’s score. The quicker this is done the higher the final score will be.”

From all the kids’ games, I love playing Whac-A-Mole and I am sure you know the reason. I love it because it is easy. All you have to do is you hold on to your “hammer” and bung the head of every mole which tries to come out of its hole. No matter how much that mole tries, if you “bung” it, it will go back down to its hole. It doesn’t need your prayers, it doesn’t require your brain, it doesn’t need your hard work either. You just stand on a side and bung, bung, bung, bung! And if you bung lots of moles and able to keep them right back to their holes, the machine will declare that you are the winner.

Are Women different from Men?

I’m not sure who is still asking this question? Anyways, the simple answer is yes, we women are different from men and our differences create beauty to this life.

Look at these two funny but simple examples to see how, for example our brains process information differently.

Single man and single girl:

The guy has been chatting with this girl on Facebook for a couple of months now. When he was out with his friends for a cup of tea yesterday, this girl dropped him message saying “Hi.” He took out his phone to reply. One of his friends, looking at his phone, asked him, “Who are you replying to?” Continue reading Are Women different from Men?

An Imposter!

Do you know the meaning of the word: “imposter?”

It means: a person who practices deception under an assumed character, identity, or name.

The one word that is very close to the word impostor is masquerade. And the word masquerade is defined as: false outward show; disguise.

A masquerade or an imposter leads a double life. He may look from the outside as someone who is a serious servant of God who doesn’t compromise but in his/her private life, he/she leads a sinful life.

Do you know if a person chooses to be an “imposter” he/she can get to the point where nobody can help him/her?

If for example a husband who is an imposter has a marriage problem and goes to marriage counseling, he presents himself to the counselor as someone who is very spiritual. And the counselor looks at his wife with a suspicious look that says, “Why are you complaining about this kind and spiritual man?”

Wow! Do you know that nobody can help an imposter, not even God? Nobody! Until he/she comes to his/her senses and says to him/herself, “Enough of this life,” he/she lives in darkness. It doesn’t matter if he/she goes to the church and gets involved in a ministry; he/she lives in darkness.

Do you know a big imposter? You guessed it! It is the devil! Listen what the Bible says:

“For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.” 2 Corinthians 11:13-15

Who are we lying to when we masquerade and impose? To no one but ourselves!

Abraham Lincoln once said, “You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.”

That means God knows who we really are and other people will eventually come to know who we really are. So when we impose, we pretty much lying to nobody but to ourselves. Think about it!

Let’s be true to ourselves, others and God because that is where we find our healing. ///

A Small Voice

Have you ever been in a situation where you feel like you wished you were not born or something?

Somebody annoys you and you are like, “You know what, I will give this person a piece of my mind” and run to get even with them. And most of the time, while you are in the heat of the moment, you hear a small voice inside your soul, a voice that says something like, “It is okay, let it go” but you ignore it. You go as you plan and say what you want to say and then, after the fact, you regret for the rest of your life.

Let me give you one example: Continue reading A Small Voice

Win the mind first, not the action!

If we ever need to wage war against sexual sin and addiction, we should start from our thought lives because every action gets conceived there first. The stronghold is the thought of it all, not the action. The action is the result of the stronghold that is in the mind.

Listen what the Bible says:

“When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.” James 1:13-15 ///

This made my day and I have to share it with you all!

I heard it on the radio. It is a true story of a poor husband.

So, one Christmas season the husband, as usual, zoomed out of the whole idea of going to the mall to look for a gift for his wife. He didn’t think much about it until late on Christmas Eve.

So, on Christmas Eve, when he saw all the pile of gifts under the tree, he rushed out of the house as if he got up from his deep sleep and went to the nearby mall. As you can imagine, the shopping mall was full of all those frantic and nervous “last minute shoppers.” Even if it was hard to see anything, he found his way to the jewelry counter and found one cute gold pin for his wife. He got it wrapped up with a pretty gift paper, took it home and proudly kept it under the tree.

On the Christmas Day morning, he gave the gift to his wife after she gave him a perfect gift he wanted to have. She opened her gift and – – – within a second, he realized from her look that she didn’t like the gift.

So, he asked, “Honey, you didn’t like the gift?”

She calmly said, “Honey, you gave me this same pin last year on Christmas Day.”

He completely forgot it! Struggling to cover his shame, he managed to come up with a reply and said, “But I have never seen you wearing it.”

She again calmly replied, “Because I’ve never liked it.”

Ouch!

What should we do with our poor husbands?????///

“How can I get better at Sex?”

“I’m married and have one two years old son. I’ve been a Christian since I was twelve. I’m 28 years old now. I was a virgin when I got married three years ago. My husband on the other hand had sexual relationship with other women. Now we are having sexual problem because he always says to me things like, “All my ex-girlfriends used to make me happy sexually but you don’t know anything because you have no sexual experience.” I’m not sure what to do. I’m confused and frustrated. I sometimes blame God for paying me back this way for keeping myself pure until marriage. How and where can I go to learn about sex?”

Oh, my dearest, God is Just! He is a faithful God! God has nothing to do with your current problem but your husband. Your husband is failing you on letting you teach him how to love you. Continue reading “How can I get better at Sex?”
