Happy Easter !
Today the world over Christians are celebrating Easter , but what is the real significance of Easter and more importantly what it means to me as a person , is it just another festival where we eat and rejoice at Lord Jesus resurrection from the dead , I guess not . For me Easter has more meaning that just a simple festival ,it was because of Good Friday and Easter I was saved. I believe in the gospel the simple gospel that’s embedded in bible, it says every one born is a sinner and the wages of sin is eternal death, now when I say I am a sinner, i may not be a murderer , I may not have stolen any thing (well apart from sweets from my moms kitchen ) and I have not committed any serious crimes, but as bible says there is nothing like small sins or big sins and that way I am a sinner too .. I lie , I feel jealously, I feel anger … etc etc. now if I am a sinner and every sinner has to burn in hell, how can 1 save my self , By doing no sin ? well easier said than done… is it humanely possible to do nothing wrong and live? I guess its not … the other way, is the way the bible show, it says Heavenly God send his only begotten son to this world and he died a painful and humiliating death on the cross … not because of his sins ( the judge who judged him says “I do not find any sin in this man “) but died for the sins of man kind and was risen from the dead on the third day... and who ever believes this simple gospel and takes Lord Jesus Christ as his personal saviors and follows the path shown by Lord Jesus through bible will have his sins washed and will have eternal life as promised by Jesus and will be saved from the burning hell. That the simple truth of Christianity, and that the gospel I believe in ,that’s why the Friday Jesus died is called Good Friday and that why I celebrate Good Friday and Easter.God Bless You.

Joy Of Doing Nothing !
This is something that may be considered very lazy but I have to admit that some times the sense of being totally free and nothing to do can be very relaxing and refreshing in it self. In the hustle and bustle of our jet age which is so much dictated by schedule’s ,deadline’s , to do list and all sort of time table , u tend to miss the small details of life , things which may be very small and futile if u look at it in a logical way , but things that may give u a special kind of satisfaction , last evening I did just that. lying on the roof I counted stars, now that may sound real boring or lazy stuff , but this is something I use to enjoy doing as a kid but as you grow up u tend to lose touch with that childish dreamy world and become more realistic goal oriented achievers or losers. but last evening I again found the joy of being a kid I counted starts ,and day dreamed of being a astronaut flying on a mission to mars…. Sounds silly , but strangely I felt free from all the work , emotional stress I was in . Encouraged by this experiences today I went to a park with a friend and after a long time i got to hear a very sweet but now unfamiliar sound … a sound of a bird sing and the sound of a fluttering leaves , I had almost forgot that there are exist such sweets sounds too. In the hectic week ahead which will be full of sounds of planes flying above vehicle’s honking in a traffic jam people shouting at each other , managers giving more dead line and mobiles ringing . I will miss that sweet bird’s song and will long to count my stars .
