*: Walking in the Unforced Rhythms of Grace

“Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace.” — Matthew 11:29 MSG

Life in God’s kingdom is not a treadmill of religious effort but a dance with the Spirit. Jesus invites us to match His pace — not too fast in anxiety, not too slow in fear. We called this the unforced rhythms of grace: living each day from God’s supply instead of your own, moving in His timing rather than forcing outcomes.

When we live in this rhythm, our days are no longer about proving ourselves or carrying impossible burdens. Instead, they are about responding to God’s leading, resting in His love, and letting His power accomplish what our striving never could.

They made the bronze basin and its bronze stand from the mirrors of the women who served at the entrance to the tent of meeting.Exodus 38:8.

 

✨ The Mirrors That Became a Basin

*Exodus 38:8 tells us that the bronze basin in the Tabernacle was made from the mirrors of the women who served at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting. In those days, mirrors were not made of glass but of polished bronze — valuable personal items used to admire one’s appearance.

When these women gave their mirrors, they surrendered something that reflected themselves to create something that would prepare others to meet God. The basin was where priests washed before entering God’s presence, a symbol of cleansing and holiness. 

Worship often begins with laying down self-focus and turning our eyes toward God.

The things we once used for our own image can be transformed into tools for God’s service.

Even hidden acts of sacrifice, like those of these women, have eternal impact.True beauty is found not in the reflection of a mirror, but in the reflection of Christ in us.

"Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness." — Psalm 29:2

Then Jesus declared, “I, the one speaking to you—I Am He.”John 4:26

*If you ever felt like your past was too messy, your story too broken or your heart too tired?

Jesus went to meet a cultural outsider, a moral outcast, a religious nobody. Jesus clearly reveals who He is not in a temple but at a well, not to a priest but to a broken woman.

She used to avoid people but now she is inviting people.

Her shame became her sermon

Her past became her platform.

Her greatest wound becomes her greatest witness.

Are you tired? -spiritually thirsty? -Are you carrying shame and anxiety?

Jesus is still meeting people at wells and today He is meeting you through these words..

Let us hear His voice. 

Blessed day..

Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance. John 20:1,16 

Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” 

*When the night is rough, look to Jesus. 

The night Joseph was sold to Egyptians by his brothers.. 

The night before the sacrifice of Isaac.. 

The night Jesus was betrayed.... 

The dark night of the soul.. Shadows are longer, enemy seems bigger and the doubts are greater. 

Saturday is dark. ... Sunday is coming

Saturday is full of fear, ....broken heart, depressed, lonely... 

Just look to Jesus and hear the voice of Jesus whispering your name.. Right now.. 

When God whispers your name the universe comes to a stop as if it were to reset your life for His glory. And Mary Magdalene goes out and tells the whole world "' Jesus is Alive, Jesus is Alive and i have seen Him. "

 weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.Psalms 30:5 (b) 

💎💎When God Whispers Your Name, it's not for His benefit, but for yours. It's to remind you that you are known, cherished, and called."

💎He speaks in whispers, not shouts. He draws us to quiet places, where His gentle voice can be heard above the noise of the world."

💎You are not who people say you are. You are not even who you say you are. You are who God says you are. And He calls you His.

💎God is the God of fresh starts, clean slates, and new beginnings. He whispers, ‘Let’s try again.’"

💎The sweetest moment in life is not when you shout in victory, but when you kneel in surrender and hear Him say, ‘You are Mine.’"

*There is an old story about a elder in church who noticed a long time attendee hadn't been in church for while. After a few weeks, the elder decided he’d better make a visit. He went to the man’s home and found him alone, sitting in front of a blazing fire. The parishioner invited the brother in and directed him to a comfortable chair near the fire.

After an initial greeting, the two sat in silence, watching the roaring fire dance over the logs. Then the brother took the fire tongs and picked up a brightly burning ember, which he then placed to one side of the hearth by itself. That lone ember’s flame began to flicker and eventually died. Soon it was a cold, gray coal, with no life or warmth whatsoever.

Then the brother picked up that coal with the tongs, and placed it back into the middle of the fire. Within seconds, it began to glow, with light and warmth, ignited by the flames around it.

As the elder rose to leave, the parishioner said, “Thank you for the sermon, Brother. I’ll be back in church next Sunday.”

 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.Hebrews 10:24-25

More like Jesus.. Every day.

 

A soldier made it his practice to end each day with Bible reading and Prayer. As the others gathered in their barracks and retired for the night, he’d kneel by his bunk. Some of them saw this and began to mock him. But one night, the abuse went beyond words. As he bowed down to pray, one soldier threw his boots and hit him in the face. The others jeered, looking for a fight but there was no retaliation.

 The next morning when the boot thrower woke up, he couldn’t believe what he saw. There at the front of his bed were his boots – polished and returned.

What a testimony! 

Lord blesses us to a blessing, forgives us to be forgivers.... 

🙏Lord give me grace to obey your Word and be a light in this dark World. In Jesus Name.. Amen

Psalms.... Heart talk to God..

 

(Malayalam.. Video msg. 5 mins) 

*HI, HOW ARE YOU?” “FINE.” Not exactly an in-depth discussion, this brief interchange is normal as friends . But if this is the essence of our communication, our relationships will stall on a superficial plateau. 

These words go deeper, but the true person still lies hidden beneath them. In reality, only when honest feelings and emotions are shared can real people be known, loved, and helped.

Often, patterns of superficial communication spill over into our talks with God. We easily slide through well-worn lines recited for decades, or we quickly toss a cliché or two at God and call it prayer. Certainly God hears and understands these feeble attempts, but by limiting the depth of our communication, we become shallow in our relationship with him. But God knows us, and he wants to have genuine communication with us.

Psalms

David and the other writers honestly poured out their true feelings, reflecting a dynamic, powerful, and life-changing friendship with God. The psalmists confess their sins, express their doubts and fears, ask God for help in times of trouble, and praise and worship him.

As you read the book of Psalms, you will hear believers crying out to God from the depths of despair, and you will hear them singing to him at the heights of celebration. But whether the psalm writers are despairing or rejoicing, you will always hear them sharing honest feelings with their God. Because of the honesty expressed by these writers, men and women throughout history have come, again and again, to the book of Psalms for comfort during times of struggle and distress. And through the psalms, they have risen from the depths of despair to new heights of joy and praise as they have discovered the power of God’s everlasting love and forgiveness. Let the honesty of the psalms guide you into a deep and genuine relationship with God.

PRAY....

 

*Ask anything.. Be anxious about nothing. 

Prayerful life is a peaceful life. 

God doesn't hear words without the heart, But He hears the heart even without words. 

Prayer is not a monologue.. But a dialogue, When we speak God listens and When God speak we are listening. 

When you are praying God is hearing as  you are the only one praying in the universe to Him . 

Prayer is a family phone call, You are calling your "Abba daddy"

Your prayer is an emergency call to heaven. 

When Bartimeus prayed, Jesus Stopped. When you pray He will  even pause the universe. 

Worldly people can take prayer out of schools, offices, hospitals and public places, But no one can never take prayer out of the throne room of God. 

Pray now..... 

O Lord Jesus teach us to pray...

*"The following story was reported by a medical missionary at his home church in Michigan:

"While serving at a small field hospital in Africa, I traveled every two weeks by bicycle through the jungle to a nearby city for supplies. This required camping overnight half way. On one of these trips, I saw two men fighting in the city. One was seriously injured, so I treated him and witnessed to him of the Lord Jesus Christ. I then returned home safe. 

"Upon arriving in the city several weeks later, I was approached by the man I had treated earlier. He told me he had known that I carried money and medicine. He said, ‘some friends and I followed you into the jungle knowing you would camp overnight. We waited for you to go to sleep and planned to kill you and take your money and drugs. Just as we were about to move into your campsite, we saw that you were surrounded by 26 armed guards.'"

I laughed at this and said I was certainly all alone out in that jungle campsite. The young man pressed the point, ‘No, sir, I was not the only one to see the guards. My  friends also saw them and we all counted them. It was because of those guards that we were afraid and left you alone.'"

At this point in the church presentation in Michigan, one of the men in the church jumped up and interrupted the missionary, and asked, "Can you tell me the exact date when this happened"? The missionary thought for a while and recalled the date. The man in the congregation told this side of the story:

"On that night in Africa it was morning here. I was preparing to play golf. As I put my bag in the car, I felt the Lord leading me to pray for you. In fact, the urging was so strong that I called the men of this church together to pray for you. Will all of those men who met with me that day please stand?"

The men who had met that day to pray together stood-there were 26 of them!

Blessed New Year 2025 with Beloved Jesus

 

Come, my beloved, let us go to the countryside, let us spend the night in the villages. Let us go early to the vineyards to see if the vines have budded, if their blossoms have opened, and if the pomegranates are in bloom— there I will give you my love.

Song of Songs 7:11-12 

My beloved spoke and said to me, “Arise, my darling, my beautiful one, come with me.  See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone. Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come, the cooing of doves is heard in our land.Song of Songs 2:10-12 

Take me away with you—let us hurry! Let the king bring me into his chambers.  We rejoice and delight in you; we will praise your love more than wine.  How right they are to adore you!

Song of Songs 1:4 

 

Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot sweep it away. If one were to give all the wealth of one’s house for love, it would be utterly scorned. 

Song of Songs 8:6-7

Come with me from Lebanon, my bride, come with me from Lebanon. Descend from the crest of Amana, from the top of Senir, the summit of Hermon, from the lions’ dens and the mountain haunts of leopards.Song of Songs 4:8 

Song of Songs 8:14 

Come away, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or like a young stag on the spice-laden mountains.

 Take me away with you—let us hurry! Let the king bring me into his chambers.  We rejoice and delight in you; we will praise your love more than wine.  How right they are to adore you!

Song of Songs 1:4 

 Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest is my beloved among the young men. I delight to sit in his shade, and his fruit is sweet to my taste.

Song of Songs 2:3 

Until the day breaks and the shadows flee, I will go to the mountain of myrrh and to the hill of incense.

Song of Songs 4:6 

 My beloved has gone down to his garden, to the beds of spices, to browse in the gardens and to gather lilies. I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine; he browses among the lilies. 

Song of Songs 6:2-3

How is your beloved better than others, most beautiful of women? How is your beloved better than others, that you so charge us?   My beloved is radiant and ruddy, outstanding among ten thousand.

 His mouth is sweetness itself; he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, this is my friend, daughters of Jerusalem.Song of Songs 5:9-10, 16 

*"When Jesus comes back faith shall become sight, and prayer will be praise forever. Love shall then reach its climax and be freed from the shadows of cloud. Then shall i serve and worship thee all the time. 

What a day that will be! so Lord Jesus make haste! Come quickly!! 

Amen! Even So come, Lord Jesus and until that glorious day May My Garden continually bear it's fruit for the delight of Your heart My Beloved Jesus........

Christmas is seeing the face of God.
Shepherds saw Jesus.
So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph and saw the baby lying in the manger. Luke 2:16

Christmas is worshipping Jesus Christ
Wise men worshipped Jesus.

They went into the house, and when they saw the child with his mother Mary, they knelt down and worshiped him. They brought out their gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh, and presented them to him. Matthew 2:11

Christmas is coming back to God 

And so they left, and on their way they saw the same star they had seen in the East. When they saw it, how happy they were, what joy was theirs! It went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. Matthew 2:9-10
Wisemen went back from the Jerusalem and came to Bethlehem..

He ruled no nations yet they called Him King

He committed no crime yet they crucified Him

His Kingdom is not of this world yet it lies within the hearts of those who believe in Him

He spoke of love and forgiveness and His, Words have transformed millions

He offers no material wealth yet we consider Him as the treasure of our lives. 

He promises no earthly power yet in His Name the powerless have found strength

Though He left no written words His messages have filled countless pages. *

Mary did you know. ..? 🎵

*The night is still when Joseph creaks open that stable door. As he does, a chorus of barn animals makes discordant note of the intrusion. The stench is pungent and humid, as there have not been enough hours in the day to tend the guests, let alone the livestock. A small oil lamp, lent them by the innkeeper, flickers to dance shadows on the walls. A disquieting place for a woman in the throes of childbirth. Far from home. Far from family.

They stare in awe at the baby Jesus, whose heavy eyelids begin to close. It has been a long journey. The King is tired. And so, with barely a ripple of notice, God stepped into the warm lake of humanity. Without protocol and without pretension. 

Where you would have expected angels, there were only flies. Where you would have expected heads of state, there were only donkeys, a few haltered cows, a nervous ball of sheep, a tethered camel. 

Except for Joseph, there was no one to share Mary’s pain, or her joy. Yes, there were angels announcing the Savior’s arrival—but only to a band of shepherds. And yes, a magnificent star shone in the sky to mark his birthplace—but only three foreigners bothered to look up and follow it. Thus, in the little town of Bethlehem . . . that one silent night . . . the royal birth of God’s Son tiptoed quietly by . . . as the world slept.

*Many years ago a remarkable Christmas card was published by the title, "If Christ Had Not Come.". The card pictured a minister falling asleep in his study on Christmas morning and then dreaming of a world into which Jesus had never come.

In his dream, he saw himself walking through his house, but as he looked, he saw no Christmas decorations, no Christmas tree, no wreaths, no lights, no crèche, no Christmas cards, and no Christ to comfort and gladden hearts or to save us. He then walked onto the street outside, but there was no church building.. when he came back and sat down in his library, he realized that every book about our Savior had disappeared. There were no carols or Christian music on the radio and no choirs or Christmas concerts on television.

The minister dreamed that the doorbell rang and that a messenger asked him to visit a friend's poor, dying mother. He reached her home, and as his friend sat and wept, he said, "I have something here that will comfort you." He opened his Bible to look for a familiar promise, but it ended with Malachi. There was no Christmas story, no angelic chorus, no shepherds or Wise Men, no Sermon on the Mount, no parables, no miracles, no "Come to me all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest." There was no gospel, no light of the world, no "God so loved the world", no Lord's Prayer, and no promise of hope and salvation, and all he could do was bow his head and weep with his friend and his mother in bitter despair.

Two days later he stood beside her coffin and conducted her funeral service, but there was no message of comfort, no words of a glorious resurrection, and no thought of a mansion awaiting her in heaven. There was only "dust to dust, and ashes to ashes," and one long, eternal farewell. Finally he realized that Christ had not come, and burst into tears, weeping bitterly in his sorrowful dream. There would be no resurrection, and no hope of the kingdom of heaven and an age to come.

Then suddenly he awoke with a start, and a great shout of joy and praise burst from his lips as he heard his choir singing these words in his church nearby:

O come, all ye faithful,
joyful and triumphant,
O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem.
Come and behold him,
born the King of angels,
O come let us adore him,
Christ the Lord.

What if Christ had not come for us? What would our lives be like? Would Christ be missed? Would our lives go on as they are without a missing a beat, and be filled up with other interests and distractions from Christ?

Let us be glad and rejoice today, because Christ has come. And let us remember the proclamation of the angel: "I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you;He is Christ the Lord" (Luke 2:10,11)

*In the late 1920s, a Presbyterian God's servant named Robert S. Burris, set out across a section of China, and he carried 2,000 New Testaments in his luggage. Along the way he was surrounded by bandits who demanded his money. When they found he had only eighty cents in cash they threatened to behead him, but instead they took his luggage including all his copies of the Scripture. That night as Burris settled down and tried to sleep, he claimed Isaiah 55:11 regarding his loss, that God’s Word would not return empty but would accomplish what God desired and achieve the purpose for which He sent it.

Twenty-five years later, Burris was serving as pastor of a church in Canton, Ohio. He met a traveling God's servantwho had later worked in the same area of China, and the man showed slides of a church of 400 members where no Christian worker had ever been. How the church came into existence was a mystery. It’s also strange that every member of the church had a copy of the New Testament. The God's servant admitted that no one knew where the Scriptures had come from. But Mr. Burris knew!

God’s wisdom and power are undiminished, and He is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to His power that is at work within us.

Whom have I in heaven but You? And earth has nothing I desire besides You.Psalms 73:25

*Charles F stanley

 

A Spanish evangelist was holding meetings in Venezuela. In a restaurant an hour before the evening meeting a waiter spilled a bowl of hot soup on his beautiful dress. His suit was stained and he was slightly burned. But he was not angry. 

The waiter apologised, offered him to buy a new suit. But the evangelist said" You work hard carrying trays all day long. You are tired by now. Just forget It".

Next day when the evangelist entered the restaurant the waiter asked him to come to his room. There the waiter said" I have waited on many people during my life, but whenever I wait on you i realize some thing unusual. When I spilled the soup you are not angry , and I want to know what makes you different. 

Before the conversation ended the, waiter found Christ through the unusual shining of one of God's stars. 

* Many people are ready to put star in front of their houses these days. Yes, there is a message of Christmas. 

But if Christ the Bright and Morning star shines in our heart. We becomes an unusual star shining in this dark world for His glory... 

, “Where is the one who has been born King of the Jews? We saw His star when it rose and have come to worship Him.”Mathew 2:2

 so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky 

Philippians 2:15 

Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever. Daniel 12:3 

 

*In ancient times, when the oldest son always got all the wealth and the second or younger sons had no social status, how does God work? 

Through Abel, not Cain. Through Isaac, not Ishmael. Through Jacob, not Esau.Through Ephraim, not Manasseh. Through David, not his older brothers. 

At a time when women were valued for their beauty and fertility, God chooses old Sarah, not young Hagar. He chooses Leah, not Rachel—unattractive Leah,whom Jacob doesn’t love. He chooses Rebekah, who can’t have children;Hannah, who can’t have children; Samson’s mother, who can’t have children;Elizabeth, John the Baptist’s mother, who can’t have children. 

Why? 

Over and over and over again God says, “I will choose Nazareth, not Jerusalem. I will choose the girl nobody wants. I will choose the boy everybody has forgotten.”

Are you the one Rejected? Neglected? Unloved? 

Remember, you are the chosen one by God Almighty!! 

Amazing Grace! 

 Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.  God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him. 1 Corinthians 1:26-29

During world war II many a mother would take her son  and try to keep the memory of the father who was away at war  in the memory of that boy. 

And one mother I heard about took her son every day in to the bedroom and showed him a large portrait of the father who was away. One day the little boy said to his mother, 

"Mom, wouldn't it be great if Dad could just step out of the frame? '

That's what happened at first Christmas. For centuries man has looked in to the heavens longing for God to step out of the frame, and at Bethlehem that's exactly what God did... 

Glory to God... 

Let's thank God and plan how I can share the joy and good news with others? 

Jesus is the reason for the season... 

 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.John 1:1, 14

*When troubles come one after another we tend to feel discouraged. 

When the children of Israel were in a state of disarray and Moses was downtrodden, God stepped in and commanded to"move on"

Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand Firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today..... The Lord will fight for you"

I urge you to go forward.

When it's dark, look for the light.

When it's day time, look for the cloud of promise. 

The Lord God is with you, and He offers all the power of His Command. 

 The Lord has taken away your punishment, he has turned back your enemy. The Lord, the King of Israel, is with you; never again will you fear any harm. On that day they will say to Jerusalem, “Do not fear, Zion; do not let your hands hang limp. The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.

Zephaniah 3:15-17 

Is this article speaks to you?. 

Then..

Flowers appear on the earth;the cooing of doves is heard in our land. Song of Songs 2:12 (a, c) 

Flowers are beautiful. It grows on the ground decorating the earth.

Birds are flying in the sky. Its songs make those on earth happy.

Jesus taught that both are cared for by the Heavenly Father. God decorates the lotus in the field and provides for the birds of the sky.

A heavenly message is shared through it. How much the Heavenly Father cares for you when you read this. The Father who is in heaven knows everything.

Don't be anxious.

Read with meditation

Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?" “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labour or spin.  If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? Matthew 6:26, 28,30
