I came across this mail by Premgin... It left me thinking about my relationship with God. The mail is as follows...
----------------------------
Dear Siblings,
This is a strange set of things that might happen if Jesus Decide to visit many of the Youth ( no one is an exception ) at Home/Hostel. It would be real rush,a real rush to mask the Depth of Worldly affections and adorations I have in Life. A rush to hide my addictions. Lets see :-
If Jesus came to your home to spend a day or two - If He came unexpectedly, I wonder what you'd do. Oh, I know you'd give your nicest room to such an honored guest, and all the food you'd serve Him would be the very best, and you would keep assuring Him you're glad to have Him there - That serving Him in your home is a joy beyond compare.
But when you saw Him coming :-
- Would you meet Him at the door with arms outstretched in welcome to your heavenly Visitor? Or would you rush to change your clothes before you let Him in ? ( Man is so addicted to looks, appearance rather that to spiritual gifts and personality)
- Would you have to hide some magazines and put the Bible where they'd been? (Have u been in Love with those Film and Fashion Magazines that were the root cause of your sexual sins and lustful thoughts.hmm Jesus will be depressed my angel)
- Would you turn off the radio and hope He hadn't heard, And wish you hadn't uttered that last loud, hasty word?( Media does play a major part in our habits and culture.So the next time you turn on a Radio or TV think like this . Will Jesus be with me when i watch this ?
- Would you hide your worldly music and put some hymn books out? ( Who knows acting better than his Kids ? lol )
- Would you let Jesus walk right in, or would you rush about? I wonder if the Savior spent a day or two with you, Would you go right on doing the things you always do? Would you go right on saying the things you always say? Would life for you continue as it does from day to day? ( Whatever u do ,he know ur present and the past,he know about each moment of ur life,so dont try to hide,try to live a Anointed Life)
- Would your family's conversation keep its usual pace, and would you find it hard each meal to say table grace? ( First of all the fighting has to stop at the dining table,Hope mom and dad would never argue over the table, at least for Jesus sake )
- Would you sing songs you always sing, and reads the books you read, and let Him know the things on which your mind and spirit feed? Would you take Jesus with you everywhere you'd planned to go, Or would you, maybe, change your plans for just a day or so? ( Oh my god ,its time to trash those crazy books and unhealthy music CDs )
- Would you be glad to have Him meet your very closest friends, Or would you hope they'd stay away until His visit ends? ( Am i ashamed to say I love Jesus to my friends ? )
- Would you be glad to have Him stay forever on and on, Or would you sigh with great relief when He as last was gone? ( Its for you to decide ,he surely love to stay with you )
It might be interesting to know the things that you would do If Jesus came in person to spend some time with you.Many of us will have many things to hide,right from the usual wording that comes out of our mouth to our family relations.
So lets start thinking now How Should I be for Jesus ? Lets seek the Holy Spirit guidance to grow more and more closer and deeper in the image of Christ.
