Several events around me has set me thinking as usual...&lt;br /&gt;If Life is an enigma, what is death ? The solution? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Death, i have realised  is an inevitable  event that can strike at any moment. Its beyond one's control and imagination.All dreams,plans, goals , visions are crushed in an instant just like that. U would never realise how fragile life is, until death draws near.Even the strongest, smartest and most able man has no escape from death. Death being the only certainty in life is probably the solution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the pursuit of life and its visions, we must not forget the fragility of life itself. We could die in an instant, theres no guarantee in the duration we would be here.All we can do: IS LIFE TO THE FULLEST. Living everyday as if there is no tommorow; living life with no regrets. If life has been lived with no regrets, death would be a normal event.Life or death is never in our hands..... Its in the hands of the LORD.We have to accept the death of our loved ones, as it happens for a reason. Only the Lord knows the reason.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;U guys must be wondering y i have started writing about death and all. Well, someone dear to me lost her close friend recently.&lt;br /&gt;I like to dedicate this entry, to CALEB.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Regret not getting to know u,&lt;br /&gt;Got to know u through the tears of an angel, &lt;br /&gt;The tears of your loved ones are a testament of your life here.&lt;br /&gt;You will always be remembered, dear friend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To the angel ; God takes the good people away fast, as He doesnt want them to suffer here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear friends, please help me pray for Caleb.&lt;br /&gt;Oh Father in Heaven,&lt;br /&gt;Let him be blessed as he takes his place in heaven,  &lt;br /&gt;Let his life here on earth be a shining testimony for Jesus.&lt;br /&gt;To us , his friends , he has not passed. He carries on living in the hearts of his loved ones.&lt;br /&gt;I Pray all this in the mighty name of Jesus...&lt;br /&gt;AMEN.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11047241-112804127685000376?l=pastorshashi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/feeds/112804127685000376/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11047241&amp;postID=112804127685000376' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/112804127685000376'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/112804127685000376'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/2005/09/entry-dedicated-to-caleb.html' title='Entry dedicated to CALEB.'/><author><name>Shashi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04355238272633669904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11047241.post-112787617367847532</id><published>2005-09-27T19:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-09-27T19:56:13.686-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LIfe</title><content type='html'>A million apologies for not posting....

A million apologies to u guys. Life in Australia is always superb. I am currently with FOCUS, its like a ministry for christians in my university. My Home Church is Bundoora Church ,its a beautiful church. The leaders there are NON- CHARISMATIC!!! This has been so hard for me to stomach.. but the the fact still remains any church is better than no church. Oh lord , your slightest presence is enough to renew me. Much of the regular church doctrine aint observed here. If u talk about tithing and speaking in toungues, u are speaking " ALIEN". Instead of just changing churches, i have made it my purpose to change the CHURCH! Perhaps this is y i am here in the first place... Most the people in the church arent really interested in praising God and evangelism isnt the heartbeat of every Christian there. Well, i strongly believe that all it takes is just one strong Christian, buring with the fire of the Holy Spirit and the fire will spread like wild fire.... Father give me the strength and annoiting to undertake this task, pray for me u guys!!, i really need your prayers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back to the Main point, the reason y i named this entry " A Father's words" is because of this dream i had. Before i became a christian, i was a son who couldn't really have a relationship with his parents. Somehow their words, especially my father's words didnt affect me. I "sorta" hated him  the reason being i liked being a free spirit without any form of control. Well, that all changed after i started having a relationship with JESUS. I started appreciating my parents, everything seemed changed, i realised y i was being nagged at.... THEN came the turning point, i realised that the reason y i am able to approach life with determination, vigour and purpose was because of my family members. Without the faith of my mother, the guidance of my dad, and the constant encouragement of my sister, i wouldnt be here at all. I wouldnt have the power to fight life's battles. I would have lost and remained a failure, i wouldnt have the faith to move. Thanks ,from the bottom of my heart, there is no way i can repay this but u guys have given a priceless gift...&lt;br /&gt;U believed in me......... My dream was bascially my father's words recurring again and again, he was scolding me, telling me to wake up and continue fighting. This was so timely, as i felt like giving up and start blaming life.......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks to rest of u all, my cell group members, cell leaders and friends, u guys believed in me. Thats the greatest gift anyone can recieve. This drove me to yet another realisation. Y is there so many people in the world, with unrealised potential, wrecked futures and broken backgrounds??? A survey by a famous pyscologist showed that most criminals have broken backgrounds. Another survey, by New York Times, showed that 90&amp; of serial killers, have an abusive father or no father at all. The reason as to y Hilter was able to garner every german' heart was in the crux of his propaganda... He was portrayed as a Father to all Germans...&lt;br /&gt;The pain in the hearts of the fatherless, is incomparable. The solitude is overwhealming, and u attempt to cling on the the nearest support even if its EVIL.&lt;br /&gt;Thats the reason y we need Almighty God, the father of anything with the breath of life, the Father of the fatherless as well..... We live in a world of uncertainty, who knows what is goin to happen in the next instant............&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;em&gt; Only the words of the Father live on......&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11047241-111330603005463749?l=pastorshashi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/feeds/111330603005463749/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11047241&amp;postID=111330603005463749' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/111330603005463749'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/111330603005463749'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/2005/04/fathers-words.html' title='A Father&apos;s words'/><author><name>Shashi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04355238272633669904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11047241.post-111089675863958463</id><published>2005-03-15T06:21:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-03-15T06:29:43.333-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Another excerpt from my new book... ,( no time to blog, copy&amp; paste easier haha)</title><content type='html'>Money? A temporal or permanent Escape route? ((((Survey results))))&lt;br /&gt;In this World, the pursuit of money has evolved to become a religion. Its many followers yearn for its very presence. In fact in certain religions, there are Money Gods, financial dieties and prosperity idols.  &lt;br /&gt;            &lt;em&gt;Let Us have Money, but let not Money have Us&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To earn that first million, billion, trillion, gives ecstasy to a point where wholes lives can be attuned to live that moment alone. It’s a driving factor so powerful that entire lives are shaped by the presence or absence of it. &lt;br /&gt;A popular quote; U cannot survive one moment on this planet without money…&lt;br /&gt;The importance of money in lives is so dominant and empowering, that it dictates every move of its followers. A perfect example would be multi level marketing or network marketing. Its shaped in such a way that the organization is run in accordance to a church: central headquarters has become a church, its many branches cell groups, its followers enriched with money and endless followers endowed with “ astounding” testimonies of how multi level marketing has become their lives. (The author has nothing against such marketing schemes, it’s a mere analogy not meant to hurt any one) Now lets look at the patterns of Escapism in the essence of Money in careful detail. Earning that million, billion or trillion certainly provides the essence of Ecstasy that supposedly uplifts the “very soul  “ as vouched by many who have felt it. Hence, this can be quantified as temporal escapism but until this pt the route to permanent escapism is still vague and unestablished. No clear route, or path towards permanent escapism has been established, unless the pursuit of Money is regarded as permanent escapism …(a perspective for the ardent followers Of The Religion: Money) So is Money really worth the pursuit of a lifetime? Is the price of Money that costly?  Or should Money be established as GOD? Or has it already been done? Is there Salvation Through Money? HAS PERMANENT ESCAPISM BEEN FOUND?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11047241-111089675863958463?l=pastorshashi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/feeds/111089675863958463/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11047241&amp;postID=111089675863958463' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/111089675863958463'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/111089675863958463'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/2005/03/another-excerpt-from-my-new-book-no.html' title='Another excerpt from my new book... ,( no time to blog, copy&amp; paste easier haha)'/><author><name>Shashi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04355238272633669904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11047241.post-111089333200998492</id><published>2005-03-15T05:25:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-03-15T06:17:32.583-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Midweek already??</title><content type='html'>Well havent been blogging for some time , busy with lots of stuff mainly assignments i guess. OH no am becoming a NERDDDDD noooooooo, anyway university is more independent and self learning. Maturity is borne out of this consistent stress that is upon u. Well been thinking as usual, life is a enigma. We are always trying to prove ourselves to someone. Proving yourself to God and yourself is so much more important than proving yourself to others. Thats the basis of Security, its an important lesson we can learn from Jesus. The king of kings, He had all the power in the world but yet he didnt abuse it, he didnt try to prove Himself to others. This is a lesson in Humility and Security.The quest to be recognised will lead to lots of undesirable consequences, like the thirst for materialism, power and so on. If your security is in money, the moment money leaves u crumble. If your entire life is centered upon money, u are estatic when money is with u and downcast when its not.&lt;br /&gt;Basically u are owned by Money, it has the power to control your very emotions.&lt;br /&gt;If u are security is in Family, you considerably stronger but the moment something unexpected happens , u crumble as well. Y place your faith and trust in things which don't last?? If your security is in God, u dont really need to fear anything , or prove anything to anyone. For when the Almighty God, is with u nothing can be against u.... Thank u Jesus, for when u are my Rock whom do i have to fear?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11047241-111089333200998492?l=pastorshashi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/feeds/111089333200998492/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11047241&amp;postID=111089333200998492' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/111089333200998492'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/111089333200998492'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/2005/03/midweek-already.html' title='Midweek already??'/><author><name>Shashi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04355238272633669904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11047241.post-111067522195951846</id><published>2005-03-12T16:17:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-03-12T16:53:41.960-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The Religious Coat</title><content type='html'>Sundays are the best in the week, its the Sabbath day. The day to worship the Lord, leave your troubles in Him and renew your faith. Faith definetely takes a beating throughout the entire week. On Monday , u are full of Faith to change the world, then the world hits u but u hold on.. Then comes Tuesday , Satan starts messing around... Then comes Wednesday,people around u let u down, Then comes thursday, boredom comes along, and u tentatively become idle.. Friday and your mind becomes the playground for the Devil. Saturday , u cant take it anymore .. &lt;br /&gt;Then comes the Sundays. ( This doesnt happen in everyone, just a generalisation)&lt;br /&gt;This is so typical of the SUNDAY CHRISTIAN. The Sunday Christian, follows every single religious ceremony, goes to church 52 times a year, takes holy communion 12 times a year and seeks forgiveness on Sundays. After that, he takes off his religion like a cheap piece of cloth, on hangs it up. Isnt that sad? Whats worse there are those that wear the coat of religion throughout the week, on top of other coats..&lt;br /&gt;Tuxedo filled with greed, lust and pride are within this coat of religion and he wears it throughout the week, showing to the world his "noble" coat of religion.&lt;br /&gt;Which is worse the Sunday Christian or the Hypocritical One? Dont we all have a Sunday Christian in us? We are definetely hypocrites at some point in our life, always trying to prove ourselves... Well thats y its a total conversion, from black to white, your heart that is. That is TRUE SALVATION.It doesnt come immediately, but it tantamounts to cruxifixation of the heart. When u throw the ideals of the world away for the God we serve, then only can we find Salvation. It definitely, doesnt just cost u something, IT COSTS U EVERYTHING in doing so. This we call FAITH. Imagine, to wear this coat of Christianity, of true Christendom, we  got to remove all the inner coats we are wearing, one by one .... Till a point where u are left totally naked with nothing on BUT faith. God doesnt clothe u immdediately, He waits ..Till u become resistant, till u grow , till u are to place every single ounce of FAITH in HIM but still the coat doesnt come .... U wait and wait and wait.. Winter comes along and u are freezing for dear life but u hang on .. Oh God even if u dont clothe me , i still love u with all my heart... Then comes a turning point, all of a sudden u dont feel the cold, u realise the coat was on u all time... Its JUST that YOUR HEART WAS TOO COLD TO REALISE IT. There are many of us , living in hypocrisy and just mere Sunday faith. Winter comes in the form of a thousand troubles, emotional, psycological and moral traumas. Are we experiencing winter everyday? Or is everyday Winter? Oh GOD, i pray i am a victim of this so called hypocrisy, i pray u change me Lord, make when what u wanted me to be. I surrender to u once again, Lord.... What am i without U? Don't turn Your Face away from  me Lord.. Make me the Man u wanted me to be, Jesus. All this i ask in Jesus Name. Amen.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11047241-111067522195951846?l=pastorshashi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/feeds/111067522195951846/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11047241&amp;postID=111067522195951846' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/111067522195951846'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/111067522195951846'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/2005/03/religious-coat.html' title='The Religious Coat'/><author><name>Shashi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04355238272633669904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11047241.post-111046577735950030</id><published>2005-03-10T06:28:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-03-10T06:42:57.360-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Thursday.....</title><content type='html'>Rather long Thursday, but it was blessed nonetheless.God has been putting many people in my life, people of different walks of life, Thank u Lord.

Its only your will that we are following my Lord. I have realised its really difficult for a person to follow Christ, 10 to 20 years of belief system being torn to shreds .. An individual might actually lose his sanity if he does that, but salvation requires a complete change over. True repentance is the key, No one enters the kingdom of God half heartedly.It also has to be of one's own free will, coercion or brain washing isnt part of evangelising. Salvation is one of the heart , True Love, willingness to change and faith..&lt;br /&gt;If u dont trust Jesus, enough to change an entire belief system, then embracing Christianity is virtually impossible. Well Lord, its a lesson for me, I will respect the beliefs of others but that doesnt mean that i wont PRAY FOR THEM. Its in prayer, that we as, believers bring the non - believers to Christ, in the Spritual realm.&lt;br /&gt;This I promise, Lord, I will keep praying and praying until they reach YOUR Hands LORD. I pray Lord, answer my prayers, bring them into the Kingdom of God.Let them have the chance to experience U, as i have. To all My FELOW CHRISTIAN BROTHERS AND SISTERS, PRAY WITH ME, Its said in the bible when 2 or agree on something,it will come to pass in Jesus name. Lets pray , a Prayer of FAITH, that the LORD will do the impossible again and SAVE these lost sheep.So i surrender to u Jesus, Let your will be done, in Jesus name i pray...

Its a blessed oppurtunity,really God-given to have a short friday, a super long weekend and an almost non- existent Monday. Just started my school day and ended it yah, so here i am... Anywayz,I thank God for this extra time which i will put to good use. One quote comes to my mind, U get 24 hours free in a day , but can u buy back one second??? Its a powerful quote, which influences my standing on the importance of time and leading a purpose-driven life. Time is a God given resource that has to be guarded very closely. Its Friday , and u are Thanking God, fervently for the amount of time u have. The next moment, its Monday and u are worried again... Planning is the essence of everything including time, When u fail to plan, u plan to fail. Thats y its so important to have a daily, monthly and yearly plan of what u want to do with your life. This life of ours is so fragile and short, we never know when its goin to pass. The truth of the matter is that u never know, when u are goin to die. There might be another tsunami as u read this blog entry or the computer screen u are looking at might just blow up in your face hahaaa. Well thats y we have to treasure every moment we have here on this earth, every moment here has to be lived for what u believe in! For me , i believe in Jesus and every breath i live has to be for Him. Life is too short, shall not waste too much time blogging, haha.

It was a beautiful sermon, one on divine healing.It is important in this faithless generation to believe in healings.Intense Skepticism befalls people, even believers. They have this innate belief, in them their God cannot heal. Then whats the point of believing in Him, if u dont believe in his miracles? Jehovah Rapha is His name, He is our Healer. The burning question still persists, y are there believers who dont believe in Healings??? Faith is the absolute atmosphere needed for miracles to be worked. Unbelief acts as the barrier that prevents the POWER OF GOD from permeating sick bodies and minds. Its normal for a non believer to have unbelief, but a believer having unbelief? Its a common thing amongst the non-charismatics, who sorta "detest" such healings and deem such works as the work of the "DEVIL".&lt;br /&gt;OH YAH, the perfect argument for this would be such healings and miracles "died" with the apostles. I am not against non-charismatics , LOVE them as fellow brothers and sisters but, there is no other way i would LOVE MY GOD BUT IN A CHARISMATIC manner. It is not a charismatic display for others, but for HIM and HIM only, The LOVE OF MY LIFE. When King David worshipped The LORD, he worshipped him in jubilant manner with all his heart, even to a point when he was naked on the streets. A King, naked on the streets?? Well the greatest king of the biblical History,Psalmist King David, gave this explanation. He was naked as this was the form he entered the world, and its before His Creator that is able to come naked, and worship The LORD in his original form. That is the extent to which charismatisim was... IF King David can worship GOD in such a manner, Can we not even lift our hands to Him, Dance before HIM, speak in toungues or BELIEVE IN HIS HEALINGS????  Belief in GOD is the ultimate foundation for every Christian, if there resides an ounce of unbelief in us, are we really behaving as His children then? Well, got a bit carried away thats how i feel i guess on the importance of Praising GOD, believing in Him and HIS Healings. Well after the service, went to Safeway, a supermarket, got all my stuff for the week then went for my regular gym rountine and here i am. The burning question still exists .. Y IS THERE UNBELIEF IN BELIEVERS??? Y do we call ourselves BEILEVERS THEN???&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11047241-111011807497726906?l=pastorshashi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/feeds/111011807497726906/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11047241&amp;postID=111011807497726906' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/111011807497726906'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/111011807497726906'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/2005/03/beautiful-sunday_06.html' title='Beautiful Sunday'/><author><name>Shashi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04355238272633669904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11047241.post-110990672060910729</id><published>2005-03-03T19:24:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-03-03T19:38:13.470-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Finally Friday!!!</title><content type='html'>Havent blogged for some time yah, lectures are intensifying but the subject core is the same. Finally realised that its really dificult to stay a few lectures ahead all the time, it really requires lots of effort. WELL DUN THINK AM GOIN TO HAVE A MUCH OF A SOCIAL LIFE HERE, but its true the social life around here revolves around clubbing, endless parties and boozing. So its a good thing in the sense, that my priorities are always set out for me. Making more friends , they come in so many ways and so many forms.Thats university life i guess, everyone is a friend of someone. My global circle of friends is definetely widened. Bulgarian, Aussie, Indonesians,American and the list goes on and on. Its a beautiful experience, meeting so many people of diverse nationalities and races, my horizon is definetely broadened. Friday is finally here YEAHH, PRAISE THE LORD !!! Thank u OH Lord for Fridays.THANK U JESUS!! I will not take for granted what u have given me.

The chemistry lecture and mathematics lecture were rather basic. The focus was intense as many students were like taken copious notes for rather basic topics. This definetely illustrated the competivity, I had to face. Met 2 other guys with the same goals as me , doing almost the same subject combinations as me. I found out some interesting information, if my results were like 70 % and above i would be acknowledged by Melbourne University to take medicine in my second or third year, as soon as i as i sit for the Medicine Entrance Exam(GAMSAT). This 2 other guys shared the vision, i had. I could see the intensity, clearly from their eyes. This kinda people are so focused and my proposed plan of forming a study group with them is feasible. One of them is good at mathematics, i am okae with biology and the rest are like complemented by the other guy( i hope). All though it may seem nerdy and all to form a study group, it is like one of the best ways to do well and there is a motivation to study to become the top student here. Thank u ,Oh Lord for bringing this 2 guys into my life, for making my vision ever so clear. Thank u , Jesus. U are my ROCK and DEFENSE. Nothing can be done without U, for u are closer to me than my very breath.

It was a baby dedication service and the babies were all so cute.This time ,the message was about calling and how we were called to serve. There is strength in unity. This message was an answer to all those who didnt believe in going to church. There is no Christian who is an Island. The Christian faith is a personal one not an individualistic one. There is a collective side as well as a personal side, thats y going to church is so important so we can function as one body with Christ as the head. Its written in Ephesians4:4, we are called into one body.Thats the reason y going to church is so important so we can serve GOD, the church and our fellow brothers and sisters.Which by the way is all the same, as the Church is the body of Christ and we are the temples of the HOLY Spirit. Its an important message for me as it impacted me strongly, a real revival of faith and a promise from GOD. After that went to the supermarket here, got some food, have to learn to cookkkk....

Is there really such a thing called Escapism? Can we actually run away from the world around us? Or we born for a Purpose to fulfill a certain ordained mission? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Escapism&lt;br /&gt;People around us are so into escapism, that their whole lives are spent trying to do as such; &lt;br /&gt;Some look at it as temporal pleasure, Some even attempt to make it permanent by reliving temporal moments. To some there is permanent Escapism, Life here to them is a mere Phase. Do u live to escape?&lt;br /&gt;Is your whole life meant to be lived for a few moments? Or is there eternity elsewhere?

We had an excellent bbq get together in my place which is like a condo, so it was a poolside bbq. First time, i had good food in like aeons. Miroslav is a quiet sorta guy, rather withdrawn but a very nice guy nonetheless. The turning point of the bbq came towards the end when he started to open up to me. He told me about his girlfriend he had left behind, and the desire to be with her. His birthday wish was to be with her, which is next to impossible as they are a thousand kilometres apart and his course lasted for 5 years.There was nothing i could do to help him but pray for him. What may seem impossible to man, is nothing for The Lord. So i prayed for him, with all my heart with another one of my friend. I strongly believe in the power of prayer and I know that My LORD will provide for him, for HE IS JEHOVAH JIREH - OUR PROVIDER and our ROCK.SO i pray lord, i lift Miroslav's life into YOUR hands, Bless his life and let YOUR annoiting flow through him . Thank u for the beautiful day i had, nothing compares to YOUR glory. Let it never fade, thank u JESUS.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11047241-110934381708164321?l=pastorshashi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/feeds/110934381708164321/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11047241&amp;postID=110934381708164321' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/110934381708164321'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/110934381708164321'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/2005/02/beautiful-day.html' title='A Beautiful Day'/><author><name>Shashi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04355238272633669904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11047241.post-110929168021304401</id><published>2005-02-24T16:15:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-02-25T07:07:25.346-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Day of revival</title><content type='html'>It was a blessed day , watched Rev Dr Ulf , via internet. The sermon message was so powerful. The importance of Humility in our lives is clearly evident. Finally realised the strength in meekness, and how Jesus acted it out for us. Pride being the number one sin was definetely a revealtion to me. I realised i was a viticm of its extened claws as well. WELL everyone is , as the carnal nature in us acts us from time to time. Thats y its called the Christian WAlK, and not the Christian Asencension or something.For in the Christian walk, we will definetly fall whilst walking but the question remains, " Can u keep on walking ?"  The fall of Lucifier was one of pride, the fall of Eve, mother of mankind was the resultant of pride as well. Its so important to guard against this malignant demon known as  Pride. For the moment we live by Pride, everything becomes a facade. Even the right things u do, u do it for yourself.&lt;br /&gt;Pride robs GOD of his glory, and there is no posssible way u can honour Jesus . U can only honour yourself. SO Forgive me Lord , for i have sinned , Curb my proud flesh and make me more of a servant ,Lord. All this i ask in the name of Jesus. Amen.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11047241-110929168021304401?l=pastorshashi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/feeds/110929168021304401/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11047241&amp;postID=110929168021304401' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/110929168021304401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11047241/posts/default/110929168021304401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pastorshashi.blogspot.com/2005/02/day-of-revival.html' title='Day of revival'/><author><name>Shashi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04355238272633669904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11047241.post-110922873248694652</id><published>2005-02-23T23:04:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-02-23T23:05:32.486-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Chronicles of Life</title><content type='html'>Just created my blog finally....
