Prose 25 : Morning Devotion
Morning Devotion
- T ABRAHAM
The world we all live in is a time bound space which can never be stopped. The times move on, the days fly off and the years run off. The every minute we exist on this planet we have several thoughts flowing inside our mind. The thoughts may be about good deeds or about evil actions and harm. Many of us are happy amidst all the circumstances even though we are in a fast moving world. Some people find every single minute of their existence being filled with challenges and many factors are disturbing their peace and harmony in their atmosphere or the people around them do not let them reach the state of tranquility. People change over time and feelings changes but there is an Almighty God, creator of the heaven and the earth whose love for us does not change. Many of us just go behind worldly things but always forget to approach our creator. So, here we are going to think upon one way to connect with our creator.
Some of the people in the world feel they are the only ones facing hardships and challenges one after the other but one should not feel broken because of it. Many of us whenever we are put into some very new situation we may not know how to handle it and may end up messing it as a whole. People who face hardships and challenges always at times lose their feeling of happiness forever and think upon what challenge is going to come next even if they get a joyous moment in their life. The brokenness, the inability to become happy or feel happy and the worries and challenges that are flooding our minds, because we do not approach our creator who alone can provide us with solutions and can guide us. We need to seek him through prayer and by thanking him for the every joyous moment he gives in our life and leading a happy life forever is an ideal condition which is unattainable.
There is a lot of changes I witnessed when I approached my creator or our creator who is God the Almighty who alone can guide us amidst the prevailing mist and fog surrounding in one's life. In my college there are prayers being conducted every morning that takes place at the Anderson Hall from 8:15 am to 8:30 am. I started to inculcate the habit of reading the Bible everyday after my 'Christian Studies' classes and it has been a year since I am reading my Bible regularly. Reading is a passive way of strengthening us and something more is needed. So, here comes the morning prayers conducted by the 'Student Christian Movement' every morning to strengthen one's mind both mentally and spiritually to overcome anything huge. The hymns sung and the 'Word of God' may at times strikes us with the earlier situations that prevailed in one's life and the hardships that one might have faced. If we feel some connect with the place through the prayers made each morning it is the right place for you. It was a place where many of the doubts in my mind flew away and never came back again and it would be a place for you too.
Hence, the power of reading the Bible, singing the hymn and listening to the word of God is somewhere that one can start from to find the true happiness surrounding you everyday and confidence filling you and making you into a better person.
