I WAITED


I Waited
By Brittni James
November 28, 2009, Bangladesh


When my grandpa passed
and I needed comfort
I waited but you never came.


When I was struggling
And I needed a close friend
I waited but you never came.

Faced with a problem
I thought I couldn't overcome
I needed guidance
I waited but you never came.

Through every storm
I waited for something
But thought it never came.

As I look back now,
It wasn't that you weren't there;
It was that you had carried me
Through each and everyone.


Jesus is my comfort,
Jesus is my closest friend,
Jesus is my guide
Jesus is everything;
And I need to wait no more.

Jesus is Coming Again... My dream

Just on Thursday morning, August 6, 2009, I woke up with a sweet feeling. Feeling that God has designed everything in fullness of His time.

The reason for this sweet feeling was this that I had a dream. A dream so strange but so powerful to give hope and make me strong in my faith in Jesus. In my dream I saw that I was standing with a group of people. I can't remember any one of them from that group. But a group that was waiting for the coming of Jesus. And I saw that suddenly there was a great light, and that the angels are flying coming down from the sky, and there was a rainbow behind them.. a powerful light was shining from that rainbow, and I could see that the angels were flying down to earth because Jesus was just coming and was coming through the circle of the rainbow.Well, I can't just remember whether I saw the face of Jesus or not. But there is a feeling that I could see the great light that was shining forth and he was to come. Wow! what a dream! I don't really know why I had such a beautiful dream. It was wonderful... I felt that there was a great message for me. A message to be prepared for the Lord is surely coming. The Bible tells us in Joel 2:28-30

" Afterward I will pour out my spirit on everyone: your sons and daughters will proclaim my message; your old men will have dream and your young men will see visions. At that time I will pour out my spirit even on servants , both men and women."


What a powerful message for us. God in the last day will pour out His spirit on each of us that we might declare His name throughout the world.

I don't know why I had such a beautiful dream, But one thing I know that God has a purpose and that I am to speak for Him no matter whatever way I can.


And I just want to tell that no matter how a worst sinner I am! God still has a hope for me.


And He wants me to tell you, don't loose your hope my dear friend... " Jesus is coming again" and it's not a fable, it's not a fake thing. It is true... " He will surely come" Let's be faithful for Him to enter that eternal home




Thank you Jesus for loving me and giving me a hope that I can still wait for you and wait to enter that heavenly home if I faithfully follow your words.

My Concerns and Burdens

Like everyone else on this earth, I got my own duties, own life and own business to be busy with. But as no human being can live alone unless he is a god or say an secluded island people say, so I can't live without associating myself with new people, my collegues, my friends, and so on. In my association and dealings with brethren all around, most often I am faced with situation where people goes on telling lies, neglecting their duties, not bothering how they hurt others.Many tells me that this is the natural and nature of the people of this world. But it burdens me. It makes me sad that even when we are paid for our work, we often neglect to do it. If often pains me when we keep on lying without bothering how much we hurt others and how much we hurt Christ!. It often grieves me when we are ignorant of our duties and our responsibilities for us and others. I guess my idea is not to complain about what others are doing. I know I ought to do my duties well too. I am praying that each of us will recognize how important it is for us to be dilligent, to be honest and true. If we, each of us are not true, we can never expect a better world. How sad it is that we know what we ought to do, yet we donot do it!!!
Plz correct me for my mistakes... no editor... so be yourself a editor for me.

HOW SELFISH AND MISER WE ARE!!!!

How Selfish and Miser We are!

Have u ever been able to observe your own personal attitude towards others? Have you ever contemplated what you really do to others just to get what u want out of others? Many a times I have been in baffling situation, when I found that people want to get everything out of others, without contributing anything in return; not even the simple gratitude. It is my observation or say observation of many people that we are so much concerned about ourselves, so much soaked with our own selfish nature that sometime we don’t even recognize how someone is contributing so much goodness sometime to our life just because they want to be kind to us and want to see that we live better. Sometime we just want to take the advantage of others goodness by claiming for those things that doesn’t belong to us. Can you just accept the fact that someone comes to you and tells you / force you to give your home off to someone because you were kind one day to him just giving a place to rest for a night? How would you feel? Wouldn’t it break your heart? Make you feel remorseful? It is just a simple example. Most often we exercise our power on others illegally just because those people are kind and helpful to us.

Sometime we just want to get everything for our benefits without even a bit of care of how the other person feels. We love to get the maximum care we can get from others without even imparting a bit of care for them. Each of us have a greater need for the care of others, we feel the need that someone will care for us. How selfish and how rude it is to exploit someone by robbing their care for ourselves without just giving a bit of it from ours!. We are so stiff with your heart as if, if we just share a bit of our love, we will run dry. This attitude of ours makes others life miserable. And it makes the good people feel that they are treated unfairly, that their goodness are not understood, that their effort to help others is not properly felt by the one who receives the help.

I personally feel exploited and used when someone takes the benefits out of me without sharing a bit to me. How I wish that they would return kindness for kindness that I can offer sometime! My contribution to someone’s life might be so little! So trifle! But I am sure that there are people who share much goodness than what I can ever imagine! I wish that each of us will have some attitude to show gratitude to others for the goodness that they shower on us.

God has not created human being to be so selfish, so much self-seeking. He created each of us with the mind and heart to give, give as much as we can. And if we cannot give even a little bit then our existence as human being are futile, we have become just like some other animals! I just feel it.

Our Own Follies!!!

Our Own Follies

It has been my experiences that most often people don’t want to understand the simple things even though it is spoken clearly. I feel that it is because they cannot break out their cocoon of personal conservative ideas or say their own egoistic feelings. They don’t want to bow down to truth and therefore shows their hesitance towards accepting the factual ideas. I observed that it is easy to please someone when we speak on their favour supporting their own ideas, without bothering whether it is wrong or right. If you go against of what they just expressed and speak differently than what their ideas are, you will be felt as threats of their long term reserved egoistic feelings. Most often people don’t want to change their own perspective being so stubborn to their roots. But I feel that we must understand that differences of opinions are not the threats to what we think but they are a different outlook, and a scope to learn something new. Each of us are fashioned differently, our thoughts and our feelings towards a particular things might be different just because our realization and our senses might not give the similar response from the stimulus. Therefore, we ought to respect of what others things and try to understand their points. There is always a possibility of going to a wrong conclusion of a certain matter too if one is given the full freedom of taking things one way. Therefore each of our ideas have values and they must be brought under a control panel to derive the best outcome possible. This is the way we can work as an organized whole for the betterment of our life, improvement of our own thoughts and for the greater good of this world. I wish that each of us will have a deeper realization and deeper understanding of our own limitations and the need of one another’s contributions to fill the gap where we fail to comprehend certain things.

God bless each of us as we take endeavor to be better everyday and better in our thoughts.

We and Our World

Our Degraded World

It is a pathetic situation that most often we don’t want to do what is right. Many a time we see things going wrong but we don’t want to speak against it just because someone will not like it. We want to please others just by selling or say sacrificing all of our moral character. We don’t mind selling our personality in order to make others happy, so to say imparting happiness to others by wrong means.
It is so sad that true and honest people are rare today. Today we are in great need of people who will stand firm for the truth no matter what happens. It gives me a great pain when I see that those who profess to follow God, they outwardly shows their godly attitude but inwardly ravenous wolves. Their roots are not in truth, but in money and in worldly pleasures.
Sometime when I deeply think, I feel that one of the main causes of these kinds of things is this that we don’t care about it. We are reckless as well as thoughtless. Sin has completely changed our mind. Our minds are focused on money, wealth, materialistic possessions. We don’t want to possess inward qualities. I feel we, each of us are responsible for what is happening around us. We need to change ourselves in order to change the world. And it has to start with you and me.

Let’s not wait for others, let’s begin a journey to fight with truth. Let us stand firm with it no matter what happens, no matter what others say. We know God will surely bless those who diligently seek truth and strive to live a noble and honorable life keeping God as the centre of their life.
