Advent Snippets !!!!!!!!!

 

When we meet each other normally we enquire about the health about the other. We show our care and concern towards that person who might be suffering or having some issues and problems in the family. By asking the one who is suffering one, the pain and misery is not lessened or taken away but he feels that in this crowded and heartless society there are people who care and love. They feel that there are people who belong to them and have feelings towards their well-being. They keep their head up and look around to to see and experience the pain of the others. The mercy and compassion of God has to be made present through our actions, words and deed. It is said that whether the house big or small, if there is no sweetness and bond in that house, not only human beings but even birds and animals will not enter to live in. 

One of my old friends who is atheist for a long time, likes to attack people who believe in God. He has all kinds of answers to prove that God does not exist. He sometimes takes some truths of the religions like God is present in all human beings. One day he asked me this same question and confronted me saying why do you go to Church when God is present in your brothers and sisters. It is a waste of time and energy to go and pray in the Church where he does not exist. I remembered what one of our school teachers had told us that wind blows in the summer heat, but the we can enjoy it only under the shadow of a tree, so God is present every where and every one but we can experience the happiness of his presence in the Church, temple and mosque.

Some times we human being boasts of our relatives, families, friends etc as our won and take pride of having them in our lives. we sometimes count on them for many things and rely for their support and care, concern and love, but experience has shown that these very our own have deserted us in moments of pain and problems. They have shown us that they were never part of our lives and existence, their negative approach makes us sad and depressed. But we fail to remember that in this world no one is ours really, only TIME and moment is ours. If time and moment is good then everyone is ours, if not those who are close to us are not really close to us. This is the Fact and Truth of Life.
