 BE A FINE PERFORMER

 
IMG 20191224 WA0007 1

I can perform myself very beautifully when it is dark.

I literally long for withstanding in an adverse situations.

I feel Okay when people don’t need me during daytime.

I am contented with my ability when I’m in use.

I keep charging my inability when I’m not in use.

My humble advice for you is to be a fine performer in your own way and do your best.

—LIGHT

People say that I am very useful for them, but they neither come closer to me nor they talk to me.

I remain calm and composed.

People say that I am the only source of their life but they never feel worried when someone hurts or disturbs me.

I remain receptive and responsive.

People say that I add beauty to their environment but they never take any effort to protect my beauty.

I remain reflective and recollective.

My wise advice for you is to be a fine performer in your designed way and do your best.

  —TREE

For some people I’m so sweet but for some I am too bitter.

Some people treat me like a friend but some treat me like a foe.

Many people handle me like a glass and some handle like a grass.

Few people look at me like hopeful and few look at me like hopeless.

Honestly speaking I am what I am in all the above shared experiences.

My genuine advice for you is to be a fine performer in your created way and do your best.

—LIFE

May you enjoy your own way!!!! Do comment, follow and share.

Thank you!!!!!!!!

                                                            EMOTIONAL   VICTORY

IMG 20190926 WA0017 1

                            Victory is a an ordinary word which demands an extraordinary sacrifice. Victory is cherished in all walks of our life journey. But the prime and first victory we all need to imbibe is the emotional victory. Why so?

                            It is just because our life is designed by our thoughts and our thoughts are executed by our emotions. Emotions play a significant role in the journey of  human life. In fact, they redesign every moment of our stay on this earth.

                            OK then, how to win over our emotions ? I can hear your query. Please hold on for a while. Follow these guidelines with an attitude of embracing your life with all sorts of emotions.

VALUE YOUR EMOTIONS:

                            Yes, value your emotions to the highest level of positivity as it will help you to come to the awareness of your standard of thinking. Try to talk to your emotions about its value not of its consequences. Spare time to write down.

VACATE YOUR EMOTIONS:

                            Yes, vacate your emotions with the blessings of filling it with your choice as it will create a room for reformation. May your reformation be consistent as it is going to bear fruits of happiness, happiness in abundance. Spare time to give a symbolic drawing.

VENERATE YOUR EMOTIONS:

                            Yes, venerate your choosy emotion with the great understanding of winning over the previous one. May it occupy the entire area of your thought provoking space and heart triggering context.

                            Let us start implementing right now. Never be tired of practicing the right thing on a right time and on a right day. I would be so grateful for your comments on this victory over emotions.

                                       Have a victorious thought,  word and deed.

[ DRAWN PICTURE OF ] EYES:

The apostles, disciples, Mother Mary and other women saw Jesus on the day of resurrection and after that too while he was travelling along with them. Their eyes were opened as they were touched by his very words, his encounter and by his mere presence. They lost their old sight of looking at everything with closed hearts and received their new sight. They received  new sights of looking at everything and everyone with new hope, new understanding, new promises and new vision. 

As we offer this organ of sight [ eyes ] let us elevate our hearts in praying to our Lord to enkindle our eyes through which we may see everything with the eyes of Resurrected Jesus.

Yes dear friends,

Today is the outstanding day.

Today is the eminent day.

Today is the amazing day.

Today is the awesome day.

Today is the excellent day.

Today is the exuberant day.

                                                    We have gathered here to part take in this prayer service, to venerate and honor today’s saint St.Joseph the great person of our Church. God the Almighty has been so keen in setting apart this day to add glory to His name. His love is ever enduring which never let us alone. His abiding presence is very vital specially when we are weak and fragile. He continues to intervene  in our lives through the assistance and supporting hands of saints. God’s marvelous work indeed is great and fabulous which we cannot measure and define. Let all praises and thanksgiving reach our Lord the divine lover of life and light as we join in this hymn.

HYMN:

                                                    St. Joseph is undoubtedly the greatest and most beloved of all the saints of the Catholic Church next only to Mary. His greatness and that of  Mary is measured by their closeness to Jesus Christ when he came to earth as the Word made flesh, the God with us , to impart eternal joy to all who believed in him. The Church advises and urges ” All  should go to St.Joseph in their difficulties “.

                                                  Great in the spirit, great in faith, St Joseph comes through, as a man who heard the words of the living God- he listened to those words in silence and became as it were , the first  witness of the Divine Mystery.

                                                   The kingdom of Christ’s reign of grace on earth commenced the moment he was born a child of the Holy Family where Joseph was the least in personal worth, yet at the level of grace far greatest than any human person except Mary.

                                                  Come let us all venerate this simple yet powerful saint through this hymn.

HYMN:

                                                   Let us continue to imbibe the virtues of St Joseph as one of us  symbolically offer these flowers [ Paper flowers are prepared on which each virtue is written ] After every offering let us sing

HONESTY:

                                                    St. Joseph was a just man and remained true to God, there by he did not wish Mary to be treated badly in the society. This virtue of honesty made him to become the foster father of Jesus.
