Musings of the past...is there a time machine

Life is made of so many choices;

- choices that you desire to change & you can change

- choices that you desire to change & you cannot change

- choices that you cherish

- choices that you regret

- choices that were turing points

- choices that were a sacrific

- choices that hurt

- choices that meant more than life

- choices that you did not want to make

- choices that you dream off

- choices that you look for and on and on and on…

I wish I had a time machine, to go back and make those changes; or do a documentary and ponder over the alternate reactions and realities that could have evolved. Not sure of how one can rationalise the emotions, questions, hurts, regrets, sacrifices.

And I don’t want to make a lame excuse or not be responsible for those choices by just saying “Oh! It was God’s will”. I am not sure what others think, but I for one believe I made those choices and today I need to live my reality based on the consequences over which I have little control or none – I had all control over my choices (probably I was coward sometime or thought of others opinions more than what it meant for me ).

However, its too late and I have to live the present realities and that’s ‘God’s will’ because he gave me all the freedom to be the master of my choices and now, I have no choice but to live His will – the current realities. Oh! I cherish the present and looking forward for the future; but I do wish I can make a documentary of possible realities that could have evolved (also make some changes to the choices I made or come close to those realities that I wanted always).

Ain’t the Bible true – “Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap”.

Your Epitaph

Your Epitaph TGIF Today God Is First Volume 1 by Os Hillman Sunday, July 03 2011 "He will bless those who fear the Lord- small and great alike." Psalm 115:13 What will be written on your epitaph? How do you want people to remember you? What type of legacy will your life leave behind? I interviewed a very successful and powerful man one time for a magazine when this question came up. The man ran an international business that is a household name to all. He was a professed Christian, but he had difficulty answering my question. "I always knew someone would ask that question some day. I am not sure I am any more prepared to answer it now either," was the man's answer. He grappled for a few nice words, but it was clear he had not seriously considered his life much beyond his business success. It is said of George Washington Carver that he got up early in the morning each day to walk alone and pray. He asked God how he was to spend his day and what He wa...

Die or Think

There is a disturbing voice which is reverberating and its echoes are heard across the mountains and valleys. People are running like herds; churched and unchurched are the same in this. The voice that I hear is so familiar to all of us thought it might take various forms. “As a man thinketh, so is he” Wow. What a powerful truth. It will change your world. The power of your thinking, imagination, fantasy can just change you and therefore change your world. That’s nothing new. Isn’t it? What saddens me is the great philosophers of the world have screamed this aloud for several centuries now but I have not seen anyone changing for Great but just turn miserable. I do understand what you are going to say – does not the bible say so. Brilliant so you know the Bible; Am glad that you know the Word of God. Lets look at the verse in detail “.. as a man thinketh, so is he…” Prov. 23: 7 Should we look at only the verse 7 a or should you want to look at 7b as well. The full verse goes like this: ...

Starting Over

Bad time….still you can ‘start over’…This message was a real blessing to me and those of you who are caught up with the recession and the other worries…………   Starting Over The brother in humble circumstances ought to take pride in his high position. - James 1:9 Do you find yourself in humble circumstances? If so, James tells us that we are to take pride in this "high" position. These two things would seem to be an oxymoron. Most of us would not consider humble circumstances a high position. Successful business tells us that being on top means being wealthy, attaining favor and status, or having power to influence. However, Jesus influenced not from power, but from weakness. J.C. Penney is a name synonymous with department store. He first launched his chain of "The Golden Rule" stores in 1907. In 1910 his first wife died. Three years later, he incorporated as the J.C. Penney company. In 1923 his secon...
