No Troubled hearts

-
John 14:1 “Let not your heart be troubled, believe in God; believe also in me”.

The above statement is made by Jesus after the Passover. Jesus knew who would betray Him. Jesus offered love to His betrayers to demonstrate the power of forgiveness. Jn 13:26-27. Jesus knew His future and He also knew the trial and the troubles that He was about to face in few hours. But the disciples were troubled and worried. Peter was even willing to go with Jesus to the extent of death. Jesus knew that His hour of death was nearing. Through all these Jesus says to His disciples “let not your heart be troubled, believe in God and believe in me”.

a. Troubled hearts

Whom do we believe? Whom do we trust? Friends, is our heart troubled looking at the problems? Are you troubled looking at the trials in your life? Remember to believe in Jesus. The first point that I would like to highlight is “troubled hearts”. Believing is having hope. And when hope differs our heart tents to be troubled and weary. Pro 13:12 our hope should be in Jesus. Jesus had confidence in Himself. He knew He could bear the sins and burdens of this world. “when hope differed it makes the heart sick”. When we lose hope we are losing our purpose and our ambition. Jesus is our hope of glory. Titus 2:13. We have a blessed hope. The glorious appearing of our Jesus Christ. Troubles come as a test from God and also from devil. But troubles should not shake our faith. We need to be strong and not shake our faith. Be strong in the hope that God has given us..

b. Believe in God

Jesus said believe in God. Jesus was encouraging His disciples to look up to God who is our deliverer. Jer 7:23. Believing in God comes when we obey the voice of God and walk in His ways. When we walk according to His ways God will lead us into the good. Saul disobeyed God’s commandment and he lost his kingdom. Samuel warned him saying obedience is better than sacrifice. 1 Sam 15,22,23. When problems come we need to learn to trust God with our whole heart. Rom 10:10,11. No matter what our heart is going through in our life, if we only believe, then all things shall come to pass in our life. Is 42:16

Dear friends,

Jesus also said “believe in me”. We are blessed and chosen generation. When we believe in Jesus we are blessed. Jn 20:29. Jesus has the power to clam your troubled heart. No matter what problems you are going through come to Jesus and He will give you peace and rest. Matt 11:28. The thief on the cross was counted faithful cause of his belief in Jesus Christ. Jn 11:2 &Jn 11:40. Let us give our life to Jesus and believe in God and trust Him with our whole life. He is the captian and we the ships journeying in the sae known as life.

God bless,
Rencin

Leadership Keys

-
"Before You are a leader, success is all about growing yourself.  When you become a leader, success is all about growing other. - Jack Welch" Everyday is a new day. Leadership is all about having new beginning everyday. Success does not come all of a sudden. It needs growth. For growth we need persistence. To be persistent we need to have a goal and a vision. If we lack in these both then we would be aimless. It is just a mere time waste. Many times we take time to get our vision withing ourselves. Once we have that vision it is very important to pursue it daily. We are all learning and our learning ends only when we when we breath our last breath. Many time we are caught up learning and we seldom forget that what we need many times is unlearning. Our growth determines our destiny. Today in the leadership process to become a good successful leader what we need to understand is that every single day in our life is an opportunity to grow. An opportunity that we have got...

What difference did you make?

-
Jesus broke a few things to make a difference. He broke the caste/creed difference by drinking water from a Samaritan woman. He broke the high/low class difference by spending time with the poor. He had touched and healed the lepers by doing so He broke the difference of untouchables. His disciples were mostly fishermen who were uneducated and so he broke the difference of literate and illiterate. He ate on a Sabbath day and broke the difference of traditions and cultures. He allowed the prostitute woman to touch His feet and so doing He broke the concept of sinners and the sinful being forgiven. What have broken in your life to make a difference? Last not but the least He died on the cross as a ransom for us, He became Sin for us and curse for our generations. He conquered death and won victory by coming back to life. He is alive today and living in you and me. What have broken in your life to make a difference? God bless, Rencin Matthew

Living the Dream

Living the Dream We all love to dream, dream is a part of our life. Dreaming dreams bigger than our self is the integrity that we can have in our life. All of us have dreams. Dream to build a big house, earn 4 or 5 figured salary, live life in all comforts, living in joy and happiness. Dreams are a part of our sub-conscious mind which always projects that which we desire and think in most of the circumstances. Dreams involve our emotions, peace, joy and career. To many of us our career is a dream and to others their work, family, education, relationship and loved ones. To have our small dreams fulfilled we need to dream big. Martin Luther King Jr a famous role model and reformer while giving a speech he stated that he had a dream. Little was known of his dream. He had a big dream, a dream where both a white and a black child would play together, and every human has rights of his own and a world of harmony. Mahatma Gandhi dreamt of a free India. Many great leaders and noted figure had a...
