DUTY TOWARDS PARENTS

Very often we take our responsibilities towards our parents very lightly lets see what the LORD has to say regarding this, obedience towards parents is very important issue according to the word of god ,in the ten commandments the lord has clearly laid it out ,"honour your father and mother",so that the days of your days may be long in the lord your GOD is giving you Exodus 20:12.In the new testament our lord jesus set a perfect example by taking care of his mother, even at the point of death,he passes on his duty towards his mother to his favourite apostle john.St.Paul writes in Ephesians 6:1-3,children,obey your parents in the lord,for this is right,"Honour your father and mother".This is the first commandment with a promise:so that it may be well with you and you may live long on earth.One amazing fact about the bible is that it speaks directly to us,it uses direct terms like...you....Once again St Paul write to the church in Clossians,children,obey your parents in everything,for this is your acceptable duty in the LORD.To learn to honour GOD(who is unseen)we should first learn to honour our parents whom we see ....just think how long its been since you've spoken to both your parents?...or. Have you ever told them,Daddy,mommy thanks for being such good parents in my life.

GOD'S AMAZING LOVE

Oscar winning movie Slum Dog Millionaire heroine dumped her boy friend and this has created a big buzz in the movie world it's also part of movie ,the hero comes in rescue for her and he says that he loves her and she says:you love me---so what!!! He gets shattered and heartbroken.See--this is the world that we live in where true love is being rejected and wasted.Do we really value a simple love when other people show us? What is our response?People do everything for their selfish self centered gain.Imagine if JESUS CHRIST on the cross of calvary would have said SO WHAT!!! Imagine our condition,if God woule have said!Ooh it's enough!!Let's start new world.But do you know what he did??? He gave his only son just because he loved us so much.he didn't want us to go astray.He is the same loving lord who is very much concerned for the lost sheep.So he left ninetynine and came in search for the lost one.
What do you think that drawn JESUS CHRIST to cross?it was not the nails which stuck him to the cross but it was his UNCONDITIONAL LOVE for us.Let us reciprocate the LOVE which he shows us by loving him back and also loving one another.

We made some changes in our jy campus gathering to help people to grow in jesus as well to bring interest in people.

Accept god's forgiveness

We see two deciples in bible who denied Jesus.One is Peter and another is Judas.Judas denied Jesus by betraying,Peter denied by telling lies that he doesn't know Jesus.Later Judas commited sucide,but Peter didn't because he believe that god would forgive him,he accepted god's forgiveness and started new life,proclamed god's word.See every one do mistakes but the thing is we should realize and ask forgiveness from our god and make sure that not to repeat the same thing.The most thing is we should believe and accept his forgiveness.Some times people think that those people are not forgiving,how god can.Remember god's look on you is different from peoples look.People see you what you are,but god will see what you will be.So don't depress when you fall,ask forgiveness,accept it and again start walking in god's way.Some times our sins come into our mind,it doesn't mean that to remind that you are a sinner,but to warn you to not to fall agin.God is with you.

You are precious to god

One day a servant asked his master for money to pay his son's school fee.
The master gave him and he took that and went.While he was going to home he saw a prayer meeting which was going on,he wanted to attend that and entered in to the hall.But unfortunately he forgot his money ,it was found by one person,that person gave that 1000rs note to the priest.That priest asked the crowd ,whose note is this? the person went to him and told,this is mine then the priest asked do you need it,yes he told.Again priest crushed the note and asked again,do you need it.yes,he replied.Again the priest stamped and asked still you want it,then the man told what ever you do the value of that note will not be changed ,i need that.See the value of note ,you also same to god ,what ever happened to you,even though you are sinner god needs you.you are precious to god.
