Its been seven months exactly since my last post. But what took me so long? Was it that I was involved in some kind of research or was I stuck in a particular survey or was I undergoing preparation for a specific test or ........ None of the above. But certainly in these seven months I have changed, my life has changed. I am no more the same person who used to be.
Seven months before something started and it ended in November 1, 2012, exactly. So we can divide the seven months into two parts. From July to November and November to February. I would call the time period from July to November as the Spring and the period from November to February as Autumn. These seven months were the best part of my as well as the worst part. But right now I am a much matured person than I was seven months before.
God wanted me to go through this experience because He wanted me to teach a lesson. His way of teaching is different and the way He has taught me, I will never be able to forget it. I had undergone much of a physical strain in my life and has fought death many times. But what I went through in the last seven months is much tougher and it was much difficult than the physical problems I was facing. The best lessons are learnt when the effort to learn them is much more than that required for any other lesson. So what did I learn? What lessons did I receive from the Lord Himself? Well I cant write all of them but I can certainly share some.
First lesson : Never have expectations from any one, even if they are your parents. You are what you make of yourself. Dont look for any help. Bcoz its not coming. Face the problem alone and fight it. You and only you can face it and defeat it. The power comes from within.
Second lesson : Never loose faith on the Lord. It will seem that He is laughing as you cry every day. But its not true. Every day He is looking towards you for strength and hope. He will not help you. Bcoz if He helps then the purpose of the exercise will be lost. He wants you to rise-up and fight. So throughout the whole process, as you keep fighting, sometimes you lose faith on Him. But if you lose faith on Him then you lose the war. He never helps you but He certainly gives you the hope to rise back again and again. Throughout the whole process He is a spectator, cheering for you to win.
Third lesson : Quite related to lesson no. 2, Never leave Goodness. Whatever problems you are going through is a test of your belief on rightness, truth and goodness. Never adopt untruth means to achieve your objective. Be true and follow the path of righteousness. Winning a prize by adopting rightful means is the only win. Cheating, treachery and badness will attract you many times but stick to goodness, bcoz its worth it.
Fourth lesson : God has given you a brain. Use it. There will be times when if you go with brain then u will b going with badness. Dont follow ur brain then. But rest all the times use ur brain and give it priority above ur heart. Be intelligent, but be in the side of truth & goodness always.
In the past seven months life has taught me a lot of lessons. I shared with you four important ones. I hope that these will help u all.
