Advisory Note: Suicide is not the solution to anything. Seek help from mental health professionals and try to live.. 

What you read above is a footnote found in newspaper reports. We see this every day. Following the suicide news, the phone number for counselling is being published for the help of everyone.

Suicide is not the solution to anything. Only God, who gave the life, has the authority to take it back.

Speak this word to God in any situation: Jesus, help me. He is near to those whose hearts are broken. He saves those whose hearts are broken.

Two songs in Malayalam come to mind in this connection.

Note: The Malayalam song has been translated to English in Prose style here.

Never has a rain remained unstopped

Never has a wind remained tempestuous forever

Never has a night passed without a morning following

Never has a pain remained aggravated forever

                     .................................................................................

Beyond the fall season

Remember the spring season arrives

Beyond tears running down your cheeks

Remember you have a smile

Of course it's very true. Look at God's face without looking at the circumstances.

Those who looked to Him were radiant. Their faces were not ashamed.‭‭Psalms‬ ‭34:5‬ ‭‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

But now, this is what the Lord says—

   he who created you, Jacob,he who formed you, Israel:

“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;

    I have summoned you by name; you are mine.

 When you pass through the waters,

    I will be with you;

and when you pass through the rivers,

    they will not sweep over you.

When you walk through the fire,

    you will not be burned;

    the flames will not set you ablaze. ‭‭Isaiah ‭43:1‭-‬2‬ ‭‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

      God, help me.

Heal me. Please save my family. Get me out of this state of total destruction. Do a miracle in my life now. In the name of Jesus hear me, Father, Amen."

Beyond the fall season

Remember the spring season comes

Beyond tears running down your cheeks

Remember that you have a smile

If you look to God with hope,

Know that you'll be answered

Know that you will be answered

Beyond the fall season…

*Beyond those bitter pains

There’s a sweet healing

Beyond the dark clouds in the sky

Remember there’s a sunshine

If you look at God with faith 

   Know that you'll be answered

Know that you will be answered

Beyond the fall season…

Beyond the darkest nights

Remember there’s the radiance of morning

Beyond the raging stormy waters

There’s Jesus the giver of peace

Behold your God in faith

Know He would answer you

Know He would answer you

Beyond the fall season…

*Never has a rain remained unstopped

Never has a wind remained tempestuous forever

Never has a night passed without a morning following

Never has a pain remained aggravated forever

In a canoe upon stormy waters (2)

He is with me on the board

                      The fog the rain and sweltering heat

                          His precious gifts are all these

                          My Father prepares these for me

                          For the wellbeing of my life

            On the road strewn with stones and thorns

                           He walks with me all the time

                           When I stumble and fall down

                         There He carries me up on His shoulders

*Song lyrics in malayalam.. Peter cheranallur, fr sajan

 

ശ്രദ്ധിക്കുക: ആത്മഹ‌ത്യ ഒന്നിനും പരിഹാരമല്ല. മാനസികാരോഗ്യ വിദഗ്‌ധരുടെ സഹായം തേടുക, അതിജീവിക്കാൻ ശ്രമിക്കുക

 
പത്ര വാർത്തകളിൽ കാണുന്ന ഒരു അടിക്കുറിപ്പാണ് മുകളിൽ വായിച്ചത് .ദിവസവും ഇതു കാണാം. ആത്മഹത്യ വാർത്തകൾക്ക് ശേഷം  എല്ലാവർക്കും വേണ്ടിയാണ് കൗൺസിലിംഗിനുള്ള ഫോൺ നമ്പരടക്കം പ്രസിദ്ധീകരിക്കുന്നത് .
ആത്മഹത്യ ഒന്നിനും പരിഹാരമല്ല.ജീവൻ നൽകിയ ദൈവത്തിന് മാത്രമേ അത് തിരിച്ചെടുക്കാൻ അധികാരമുള്ളത്.
ഏത് അവസ്ഥയെങ്കിലും ദൈവത്തോട് ഒരു വാക്ക് പറയുക. യേശുവേ എന്നെ സഹായിക്കേണമേ. അവിടുന്ന് ഹൃദയം തകർന്നവർക്ക് സമീപസ്ഥനാണ്. മനസ്സ് തകർന്നവരെ അവിടുന്ന് രക്ഷിക്കുന്നു .
മലയാളത്തിൽ രണ്ട് ഗാനങ്ങൾ ഓർമ്മ വരുന്നു.

ഒരു മഴയും തോരാതിരുന്നിട്ടില്ല
ഒരു കാറ്റും അടങ്ങാതിരുന്നിട്ടില്ല
ഒരു രാവും പുലാരാതിരുന്നിട്ടില്ല
ഒരു നോവും കുറയാതിരുന്നിട്ടില്ല;...

കവിളിലൂടൊഴുകുന്ന കണ്ണീരിനപ്പുറം

പുഞ്ചിരിയുണ്ടെന്നതും ഓര്‍ക്കണം

തീർച്ചയായും വളരെ വാസ്തവം തന്നെ. സാഹചര്യങ്ങളിലേക്ക് നോക്കാതെ ദൈവത്തിൻ്റെ മുഖത്തേക്ക് നോക്കുക.

അവങ്കലേക്കു നോക്കിയവർ പ്രകാശിതരായി; അവരുടെ മുഖം ലജ്ജിച്ചുപോയതുമില്ല.‭‭സങ്കീർത്തനങ്ങൾ‬ ‭34:5‬ ‭

ഇപ്പോഴോ യാക്കോബേ, നിന്നെ സൃഷ്‍ടിച്ചവനും, യിസ്രായേലേ, നിന്നെ നിർമിച്ചവനുമായ യഹോവ ഇപ്രകാരം അരുളിച്ചെയ്യുന്നു: ഭയപ്പെടേണ്ടാ, ഞാൻ നിന്നെ വീണ്ടെടുത്തിരിക്കുന്നു; ഞാൻ നിന്നെ പേർ ചൊല്ലി വിളിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു; നീ എനിക്കുള്ളവൻ തന്നെ.  നീ വെള്ളത്തിൽക്കൂടി കടക്കുമ്പോൾ ഞാൻ നിന്നോടുകൂടി ഇരിക്കും; നീ നദികളിൽക്കൂടി കടക്കുമ്പോൾ അവ നിന്റെ മീതെ കവികയില്ല. നീ തീയിൽക്കൂടി നടന്നാൽ വെന്തുപോകയില്ല; അഗ്നിജ്വാല നിന്നെ ദഹിപ്പിക്കയുമില്ല.

Are you going through tough time?

 

**At times life seems harder than we can bear, especially on days when we’re stunned by grief, worried about the situation in the world, distressed over health or finances, or reeling from waves of trouble. We long for joy in the morning, but sometimes we’re in the darkest night.

In 1 Samuel 30, while fleeing the armies of King Saul, David was attacked at Ziklag by the Amalekites. His family was kidnapped, the town was burned, and his men rebelled against him. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong, and it was David’s darkest hour. He wept till he had no more strength to weep.

According to 1 Samuel 30:6, David responded to his trouble by strengthening himself in the Lord. That simple statement is a sermon to our souls. David was under incredible strain as his circumstances had gone from bad to worse. Yet he refused to give up. He knew how to strengthen himself in the Lord by shifting his attention from his hopelessness to his Helper. Today, we need to remember that all our troubles are temporary, and all our blessings are eternal.

We don’t know when David wrote Psalm 13, but the psalm certainly fits this occasion.

Darkness

            Psalm 13 opens with David darkly crying: “How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily?”

            These words were written by a man so low in spirits he feared the omniscient God had forgotten him and the loving God had forsaken him. I wonder if you’ve had moments like that. Emotional pain is the cruelest kind, and hopelessness is one of the cruelest kinds of emotional pain. During times of despair, it’s best to be frank about our feelings and to pray honestly, like David, who cried, “How long, O LORD?”

Dawn

As we continue reading Psalm 13, however, we see David turn a corner in verse 3, as he continued, “Consider and hear me, O LORD my God; enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death; lest my enemy say, ‘I have prevailed against him’; lest those who trouble me rejoice when I am moved” (verses 3-4).

Though David felt abandoned, he knew better in his heart. His knowledge of God was greater than his emotions of despair. His theology was stronger than his feelings. Despite his pain, he managed to pray, asking God to consider him and to hear him in his hour of need.

There’s one thing we know about the night: It’s not permanent. We are not forsaken, not forgotten, not destitute, not detached. If we can lift our eyes heavenward and whisper a prayer in Jesus’ name, we’ll eventually see a glow on the horizon as the sun begins to rise with healing in its rays. The Lord has a way of imparting grace when we need it most. He enables us hour by hour and moment by moment. He reminds us that our momentary afflictions are not worth comparing to the glory to be revealed.

The Lord doesn’t want us to be stuck in the regrets of yesterday or seized by fear of tomorrow. We simply trust Him for today. He gives grace from moment to moment; and as the hours pass, the darkness turns to dawn and the dawn to daylight.

 

Daylight

As we come to the end of Psalm 13, David senses the possibility of rejoicing once again. “I have trusted in Your mercy,” he wrote. “My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation. I will sing to the LORD, because He has dealt bountifully with me” (verses 5-6).

Let me leave you with some hopeful hints for the darkness.

 

• If you feel you cannot pray, just Say Lord Jesus help me. 
• If you feel you cannot remember any Scriptures, read Psalm 13 aloud.
• If you feel you cannot sing, just try the first line of your favorite hymn or praise chorus.
• If you can’t find a promise, remind yourself of Hebrews 13:5: “He Himself has said, ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’”

You can strengthen yourself in the Lord. God hasn’t forsaken us, even though the darkest hours in our lives make us feel alone and forgotten. Don’t give up. Moment by moment, His sustaining care will turn the darkness to dawn, the dawn to daylight.

. . Lord pl touch and heal the broken heart.. In Jesus Name. Amen

The ups and downs of life

 

*Elijah, for example. In one chapter, we see him calling down fire from heaven on the ridge of Mount Carmel. Turn a few pages and he’s hiding under a juniper tree wishing he were dead.

In the first chapter of Job’s book, we see him rich and respected, on top of the world. Happy home. Happy wife. Good health. Great wealth. A few verses later, he went through difficult time. 

Consider the patriarch Joseph. He’s pictured in Genesis 40 rotting in prison; turn the page and he’s the Prime Minister of Egypt.

When John the Baptist started preaching, he instantly became the most successful and renowned evangelist in four centuries. But when we next see him, he’s sending word to Jesus from prison, asking, “Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?” (Matthew 11:3)

In Matthew 16, Peter heard Jesus saying to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah.” Five verses later, he heard the same voice say, “Get behind Me, Satan!”

In 2 Corinthians 12, the apostle Paul talked about being caught up into the third heaven; a paragraph later he’s burdened with his thorn in the flesh.

In Revelation 1, the aged apostle John was banished from church and country, sentenced to lonely exile on a penal island; but by verse 10 he was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, caught up in heavenly visions to see the splendor of the enthroned Christ.

 King David, wrote  many Psalms. We love his writings because he seems to have known all the ups and downs of life as we do; and there’s a Psalm to match our every situation. Psalm 30 is an excellent example. It begins: “I will extol You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up.”

The Hebrew term David used for “lifted up” is the same word that was used for dipping a bucket down into a well and drawing up water. David was saying, “Lord, you reached into the grave and pulled me right out. I was almost gone.” Furthermore, notice the word “extol.” It means “to lift up.” The psalmist was saying, “I will lift You up in my praise, Lord, for You have lifted me up in Your mercy.”

David went on to describe how God had taken him from hurting to healing (verses 1-4); from weeping to joy (verse 5); from prosperity to poverty (verses 6-7); from mourning to dancing (verse 11), and from silence to singing (verse 12). He ended by saying, “You turned my wailing into dancing; You removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, that my heart may sing to You” (verses 11-12, NIV).

Psalm 30 simply reflects Scriptural realism. Life isn’t ideal; troubles hit us hard; we can be cast down. But God is faithful; His compassions never fail, for great is His faithfulness. He is all we need, our All-Sufficient Savior, our All-in-All. Whether we’re up or whether we’re down,Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

What ever be the situation now.. REJOICE IN THE LORD.... 

*David Jeremiah

 

*In the devotional book "voices of the faithful  God's servant named Gerri told of working in an african town.one day exciting news reached her.

The lozi king was coming to attend church services and to eat at her house. Gerri knew the king  usually  didn’t visit private homes and word of his upcoming visit spread through the town  like wildfire. when the day finally arrived the king entered  gerri’s home she explained in th lozi language  that she was a God's servant and that in lozi, the name gerri sounded like jelly because  the ‘ r ‘  sound is hard for the people to pronounce. 

she boldly asked the king for lozi name though she didn’t know it at the time such a request  was against protocol  but the king just smiled and said i’ll think about it  later .As he prepared  to leave the king said my wife and I have decided upon a name for you it will be liseli [pronounced lee-she-lee] it means light  just as the sun gives light life to plants and animals  and people . 

  I want God’s  word to be life and light to the people of western province. gerri later wrote i was stunned and pleased to receive this blessing after the king left the room a lady seated nearby privately said ah you are very lucky woman to be given a name by a king .

Well the King of kings has given you a name-and it is light . Jesus said you are the light of the world  so turn on the light for Him then shine before men that people might see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven

**(I was hungry  and you formed a humanities club and discussed my hunger. 

I was imprisoned and you crept off quietly to your chapel in the cellar and prayed for my release. 

I was sick and you knelt down and thanked God for your health. 

I was homeless and you preached to me the spiritual shelter of the love of God. 

I was lonely and you left me alone to pray for me....) 

Lord help us to be the light of the world. In Jesus Name.. Amen

Let us take one step 👣For God's glory.. 

To phone a distant person who is broken. 

Send a mail. 

Visit an orphan... 

Go and help your team member in hospital

Send a help to some one in need.... 

Open the door of our homes. 

Let others travel in our car.. 

Invite someone for a love feast/ dinner. 

Help a poor student in studies.....

weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning Psalm 30:5

Mary Magdalene who was possessed by seven demons might have cried during many nights. Nevertheless, Jesus delivered her. She followed Jesus. The eyes of Mary who stood near Jesus’ cross might have over-flowed with tears. Subsequently a long Saturday… Not yet over.

Early in the morning, while he was still dark, when Mary Magdalene went to the tomb, her heart was broken.

The disciples went home, while Mary remained at the tomb crying.

Mary…

Rabboni

The rejoicing of the morning has started. Joyful shout which has not yet stopped on this earth. Shouts of joy and victory. Unspeakable and glorious joy… Fullness of joy…dance of joy…always rejoicing…words are insufficient.

Well, are you who read this article, weeping at night?... There is a rejoicing in the morning that is coming…

Jesus is coming soon…

Still you have questions?

"Mary of Magdalene…"

"Why do you complain, Jacob?

    Why do you say, Israel,

“My way is hidden from the Lord;

    my cause is disregarded by my God”?

Do you not know?

    Have you not heard?

The Lord is the everlasting God,the Creator of the ends of the earth.He will not grow tired or weary,  and his understanding no one can fathom.He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. -Isaiah 40:27-29

ക്രൂശിൻ്റെ അരികെ നിന്നവന് അമ്മ

കുരിശ് ചുമന്നവന് അനുഗ്രഹം

നിന്ദിച്ചവർക്ക് വേണ്ടി പ്രാർത്ഥന

ക്രൂശിക്കാൻ നേതൃത്വം കൊടുത്തവന് തന്നെക്കുറിച്ച് വെളിപ്പാടു

ദൈവം തന്റെ ഏകജാതനായ പുത്രനെ നാം അവനാൽ ജീവിക്കേണ്ടതിനു ലോകത്തിലേക്ക് അയച്ചു എന്നുള്ളതിനാൽ ദൈവത്തിനു നമ്മോടുള്ള സ്നേഹം പ്രത്യക്ഷമായി. നാം ദൈവത്തെ സ്നേഹിച്ചതല്ല, അവൻ നമ്മെ സ്നേഹിച്ചു തന്റെ പുത്രനെ നമ്മുടെ പാപങ്ങൾക്കു പ്രായശ്ചിത്തം ആകുവാൻ അയച്ചതുതന്നെ സാക്ഷാൽ സ്നേഹം ആകുന്നു.

*Just As I Am" was written by Charlotte Elliot in 1835, first appearing in the Christian Remembrancer, of which Elliott became the editor in 1836. The final verse is taken from Elliott's Hours of Sorrow Cheered and Comforted (1836).

Charlotte Elliot wrote this song about how to find salvation through Christ. It has been used by many as the call to the altar at the close of services, as it brings a quite simple message of sin, forgiveness, and salvation to all that turn from sin and trust in Jesus.

Charlotte spent the first 32 years of her life in Clapham, England. As a young woman, she was gifted as a portrait artist and a writer of humorous verse. Then, in her early thirties, she suffered a serious illness that left her weak and depressed. She was an invalid and suffered much during the last 50 years of her life. In 1823, she moved to Brighton. She was a member of the Church of England. Charlotte was confined to her home and unable to attend church services.

During her illness, a well-known preacher, Cesar Malan of Switzerland, came to visit her. He asked her if she had peace with God. She was facing many inner struggles because of feeling useless, and she resented the question. She refused to talk about it that day, but a few days later called Dr. Malan and apologized. She said she wanted to clean up her life before becoming a Christian. Malan answered, "Come just as you are." She gave her life to Christ that day. Some years later at age 45, Charlotte remembered those five words and began to write the seven verses of "Just As I Am" in 1834. In spite of being raised in a Christian home, she reflected on her conflicts and doubts and was unsure of her relationship with Christ. So she penned her words of assurance about Jesus loving her just as she was. William B. Bradbury composed music for her lyrics and published the song in 1849. This hymn has been translated into many languages all over the world. Tens of thousands of people have committed their lives to Christ during the playing of this hymn.

Miss Elliott wrote about 150 hymns and many poems, some of which were printed anonymously, with Just As I Am probably the best-known. Dr. Billy Graham wrote that the Graham team used this hymn in almost every one of their crusades. He said it presented "the strongest possible Biblical basis for the call of Christ." Hymnody historian Kenneth Osbeck wrote that "Just As I Am" had "touched more hearts and influenced more people for Christ than any other song ever written." Christian writer Lorella Rouster wrote, "The hymn is an amazing legacy for an invalid woman who suffered from depression and felt useless to God's service.

Just as I am, without one plea

But that Thy blood was shed for me

And that Thou bid'st me come to Thee

Oh, Lamb of God, I come, I come

Mm

Just as I am, though tossed about

With many a conflict, many a doubt

Fighting and fears within without

Oh, Lamb of God, I come, I come

Ooh, just as I am, ooh, I come

Ooh, just as I am, oh Lamb of God, I come

Just as I am, Thou wilt receive

Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve

Because Thy promise I believe

Oh, Lamb of God, I come, I come

Ooh, just as I am, ooh, I come

Ooh, just as I am, oh Lamb of God, I come

Oh lamb of God, I come

Joe was waiting for a long time in front of his friend Edwards' house. Edward was talking to someone for long time.

 
" O some intimate friend might be in the house"Joe said to himself.
After some time there was perfect silence.
Joe knocked the door.. Edward opened ..
Come.... He said.

 
Whom you was talking intimately for a long time?
I was waiting outside. Where is the guest?
Edward replied..  It is my Lord Jesus. I was praying to Him.

 
Prayer is an intimate talk with Lord Jesus Christ. It is a dialogue.
When we speak God is listening..
When God speaks we are listening..
He answers our prayer..

 
Let us come out of all religious activity and open our heart and spend time with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
God is our Father.. He hears our prayer.

 
Are we unsatisfied and hungry.. He is the bread of life 🍞
Are we overwhelmed in darkness.. He is the light of the world.. 💡
Are we aimless and afraid.. He is the Good Shepherd🚶🐏🐏🐏

What a friend we have in Jesus

All our sins and griefs to bear

What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer!

O what peace we often forfeit

O what needless pain we bear

All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer

Have we trials and temptations?

Is there trouble anywhere?

We should never be discouraged

Take it to the Lord in prayer

Can we find a friend so faithful

Who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness

Take it to the Lord in prayer

 

Why we are so weak and heavy laden? Joseph Scriven wrote the lines

"All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer"

Yes. I believe the above is true. Let us tell every thing to Jesus in prayer. 

Some years back a Chinese boy was reading the bible word Mathew 28:20

 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. 

He was very happy and thanking God. Why? 

His name was "Lo"

Let us read today the verse by reading our Name.. ______ I am with you always even unto the end of rhe world..

Praise the Lord.. Blessed day with Jesus.. 

Pray... Right now.. 

🎵🎵

Lord, I come, I confess
Bowing here I find my rest
Without You I fall apart
You're the One that guides my heart

Lord, I need You, oh, I need You
Every hour I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You

Where sin runs deep Your grace is more
Where grace is found is where You are
And where You are, Lord, I am free
Holiness is Christ in me

Teach my song to rise to You
When temptation comes my way
And when I cannot stand I'll fall on You
Jesus, You're my hope and stay

You're my one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You

 

We were hoping that it was He who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, today is the third day since these things happened. —Luke 24:21

The disciples walking from Jerusalem to Emmaus lost all their hopes in life. The reason they were telling was" Besides all the things happened... Today is the third day"

You may be saying in  your heart, 'this is the third day.. means nothing seems  hopeful in my life.Time is over. But while you are reading these lines open your eyes and see who is standing near to you'.

For you today may be third day, but for Jesus today is the first day. The day of hope, the day Immanuel, the resurrected Messiah walking through the dusty roads of your life'....

Listen to  Him.. Say to Him.
‬ ‭"Abide with me; for it is toward evening, and the day is now far spent... "

*We look for thunder from heaven and for earth-shaking events to see God’s power. Yet we never realize that all the time God is at work in our everyday events and in the people around us. One of the most amazing revelations of God comes to us when we learn that it is in the everyday things of life that we realize the magnificent deity of Jesus Christ.

Blessed day with Jesus..

*John the Baptist saw a dove and believed. James Whittaker saw a seagull and believed. Who’s to say the one who sent the first didn’t send the second?

​

James Whittaker was a member of the handpicked crew that flew the B-17 Flying Fortress captained by Eddie Rickenbacker. Anybody who knows about October of 1942 knows the day that Rickenbacker and his crew were reported lost at sea.

​

Somewhere over the Pacific, out of radio range, the plane ran out of fuel and crashed into the ocean. The nine men spent nearly the next month floating in three rafts. They battled the heat, the storms and the water. Sharks, some ten feet long, would ram their nine-foot boats. After only eight days their rations were eaten or lost to saltwater. It would take a miracle to survive. Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name.

​

One morning, after their daily devotions, Rickenbacker leaned his head back against the raft and pulled his hat over his eyes. A bird landed on his head and he peered out from under his hat. Every eye was on him. He instinctively knew it was a seagull.

​

Long story short, Rickenbacker caught it and the crew ate it. The bird’s intestines were used for bait to catch fish… and the crew survived to tell the story. A story about a stranded crew with no hope or help in sight. You might say just a wing and a prayer.

​

A story about prayers offered and prayers answered. A story about a visitor from an unknown land traveling a great distance to give his life as a sacrifice.

​

A story of salvation.

​

A story much like our own. Weren’t we, like the crew, stranded? Weren’t we, like the crew, praying? And weren’t we, like the crew, rescued by a visitor we’d never seen through a sacrifice we’ll never forget? Prayers were answered.

. . . Pray... God Answers prayer...

Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.
