OBITUARIES
catholic-matrimony.in cinderellas-matrimony catholics-matrimony.com

When you look at the world up close, you see a lot of diversity.
But when you stand back, all you see is one. 


One earth.

One human species.

One living system.


All life is one, interconnected whole
and that what we do to each other, we do to ourselves.


You are living God’s life.

Your experience is God’s experience.

Forgetting any religious brainwashing you may have…What is it that God would enjoy experiencing through you?

How is it you can give God the greatest joy and experience each and every day?

 
What each must seek in his life never was on land or sea.
It is something out of his own unique potentiality for experience,
something that never has been and never could have been experienced
by anyone else.
 

 
The art of dying a thousand deaths

Is your life any less a canvas because you do not paint?
Is your voice any less potent because you do not give it pen?
Is your soul barren of song because you compose no notes?

No, a thousand times!

Life well lived is the greatest art of all.
The art of your life is not a matter of talent.
It is a matter of mounting the courage to live.

It's mounting the courage to see what your really are,
to be dazzled by the radiance that is you.

Mounting the courage to imagine what this world could be.
Mounting the courage to die a thousand deaths to live one's life to the fullest.
 

 
Love can never be owned or possessed

Love can never be owned or possessed,
to find soul love in another,
is a never ending heartbreaking pursuit,
our lovers are our life teachers,
and not to be owned, whilst we journey through life,
everyone we meet will become our teacher.

Our hearts were designed to be cracked wide open,
in order to feel and understand the gravity of it's potency,
then and only then is the true nature of the one self revealed,
we go diving into that ring of fire,
time and time again,
with a passion like it's going out of fashion.

Before we realize the timeless beauty of the one self love,
the oneness of this love will ripple and radiate out to others effortlessly
and freely,
and without wanting anything in return,
an unconditional fulfillment of kind,
is felt as the ultimate love,
it burns no more, and in it's eternal smouldering embers,
comes the understanding of pure potential freedom of the flight.

We gain and earn our wings,
we are reunited with our very souls,
we always get what we truly desire,
and in turn we effect every other heart we touch.
 


This moment is beyond your control
 
Freedom comes when you give up
your attachment to what you want the most.

Freedom comes when you realize
this moment is beyond your control.

That life simply is you simply are
and where it goes from here
nobody can say for sure.

Doesn't mean you stop trying.
Simply means you give up
your attachment to the outcome.

For the moment you stop obsessing over
how to make later the way you want it to be;
you will find yourself
here,
alive,
open,
vulnerable.

This is where the heart opens.
This is where love flows.
 


Allow yourself to be as you are

When is the last time you sat down
and allowed yourself to be as you are?

When is the last time you accepted all of your
dysfunctions,
imperfections,
emotions,
thoughts
and desires
without trying to change any of it?

There is so much beauty behind the mask
you keep trying to create yourself to be.

So much love waiting to embrace you.

 
Follow your pleasure


I am only here to tell you, whispering in your ear,
that so far, you have asked for so little.

A grain of sand, when you can have the beach,
a drop of water, when you can have the ocean,
a little bed in a small room, when you can have the earth,
a little magic trick, when you could be GOD.

I built this earth, for your pleasure.
so you can do anything you want
so you can have anything you want anytime you please.
and if you like, I'll tear it all down & rebuild it for you,
because you are so sweet, your freedom, so pure

you know where to find me, follow your pleasure,
I have always been with you.
just turn around and look at me,
talk to me, tell me what you want
anything you want I am magic,
I am powerful I snap my fingers,
flick my wrist & make it appear for You.

And you deserve it all, & you should have it all
that you want because you are so sweet,
and your freedom so pure

I am here, you know where to find me
follow your pleasure, your passion
You know how to come to me,
I have all ways been here follow your delight
I built this city, this beach,
this ocean, for You

so you can go wherever you like,
so you can go whenever you please
anywhere you like, wonder the city,
discover its beauties, laugh with people.

 

 
Thoughts for Life
 
 
No one can go back and make a brand new start.

Anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.

God didn't promise days without pain, laughter, without sorrow,
sun, without rain, but He did promise strength for the day,
comfort for the tears, and light for the way. 

Disappointments are like road bumps,
they slow you down a bit
but you enjoy the smooth road afterwards.
Don't stay on the bumps too long. Move on!
 
When you feel down because you didn't get what you want,
just sit tight and be happy, because God has thought
of something better to give you.
 
When something happens to you, good or bad,
consider what it means.
 
There's a purpose to life's events,
to teach you how to laugh more or not to cry too hard.
 
You can't make someone love you, all you can do is be
someone who can be loved,
the rest is up to the person to realize your worth.
 
It's better to lose your pride to the one you love,
 than to lose the one you love because of pride.
 
We spend too much time looking for the right person to
love or finding fault with those we already love, when instead
we should be perfecting the love we give.

 

 
Purpose of Life

 Everyone is born for a purpose to be,

You may never see it, or never know..

Each life no matter its length,

That existence has meaning to some.

A minute, an hour, or for years to come,

Time doesn't matter for the life that's begun.

We touch maybe only one soul,

Or we may share our soul to many.

Each breath of life brings something to some,

Life is simply a moment in time.

A time determined not by minutes or hours,

But by the purpose for which the life began.

Each heart beat you hear or feel,

Is the touch of whatever purpose is near.

Question not why it began or ended,

Look to the purpose it gave to someone.
 


I Feared UNTIL.....!!!

I feared the truth
Until I saw the ugliness in lies.

Give God the best experience possible.
by Francis and Victoria on 19th Apr, 2008
Don't let the mind keep telling you "work, work, work!" Enjoy children, pets, nature. Take time to relax and know all is well. Take time to dream. Make love. And do work when it does feel good. Do whatever it is that feels good with the intention of giving God the best experience possible.

ACCEPTANCE
by PACITA J. PREGLO on 21st Apr, 2008
This is such a great episode that I've ever read. It complete me as a human being. It helped me to accept my whole totality as a person. I have fully understood why God had created me this way, to experience everything whether it is happiness or a mess. Now I've realized that life is so wonderful, meaningful, and worthed in anyway or whatever it maybe. It challenged me to live more on earth and happy to wait what I'll be in the remaining years of my life.

I'm grateful to have a safe haven here
by Marybeth on 30th Apr, 2008
I would like to thank the GuardianAngel for accepting my membership. I'm grateful to have a safe haven in which to express myself freely without fear of scorn or ridicule. I am excited to be an active participant and look forward to your good counsel. I have lived for so many years in flux, not knowing who I am or whom I should be. I believe that God has a plan for me and I know that I am exactly where I should be in my journey. It's been hard on me going through so many failed relationships as a means of validation of my worth. I've finally realized that I am worthy, I consider myself to be a kind soul and would never take the low road as a means to an end. I truly believe in the HEART, for that it is eternal, and cannot lie. I hope to grow with you good people, and can only hope that I can give as much love and support for all of you that I feel I will receive here... Marybeth.

A very heartwarming beautiful website!
In God's grace, we are all born with happy spirits and a free will in human flesh. How we tune our brain and heart to face struggles and joys in life is the choice we make as humans. The best gift we can give ourselves is Positive Thinking - turning a negative situation into a positive one. Things happen for a reason. Trust in God, you will experience HIS peace and hear HIM in silence. Keep smiling....it's infectious.

Know the Living God through His Word.
by Sebastian D'Souza on 9th Aug, 2010
Dear friends,

Christian greetings.Being sinners we are away from God’s presence. We cannot approach God neither we can pray to him because he does not listen to us. (John 9:31) But if we obey God and repent, he prefers to listen to us. He is a God of love and compassion. Slow to anger and abounding in love. He wants all sinners to come back to him in repentance and accept his Son Jesus Christ as their Savior. Then he is delighted in forgiving us and grants us his son-ship back to us by giving us the right to be called children of God. And once we become his children we also become co-heirs with Christ to his kingdom. Being his rightful children we also get all the privileges with Christ. We can approach our Father at any place and at any time. We get free access to his presence. We can call him Abba Father.
But if we do not obey, he feels offended and does not hesitate to punish to those who willingly reject his call. Because he is just God. He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power. (2 Thess.1:8-9) He is our Creator and has every right to expect us to listen to him. We cannot afford to ignore him neither we can afford to reject him. Because ultimately our future is in his hands
One may think or say that we are obeying him. But unless we read his Word we won’t know whether we obey him or not. For that we have to read his Word and know his heart. His Word which is called the Bible is being preached day and night. Bible is available everywhere. One can avail it easily. What is required is hunger and thirst for God’s word. Time is short and the coming of Jesus is near. One can see the signs and will know of his coming. Unprecedented rain, earthquakes, tsunamis, cloudbursts, floods are the signs of his coming. He has already given these signs in his Word.
 
God is calling you.
by Sebastian D'Souza on 10th Aug, 2010
Dear friends,
God is calling you

Christian greetings.God loves you. He has created every creature on this planet. Among all his creations he loves man and woman more than others because He has created them in His own image and in His likeness. He has also imbibed His own qualities in them. He loves them more than his or her parents.
But sadly as their first parents Adam and Eve disobeyed God and decided to follow Satan God drove them from his presence cursing them for their betrayal. Though he drove them, still He loved them as before. Day and night he remembered them. God is just and He cannot tolerate any disobedience. When Adam and Eve were with God, He had given them certain guidelines to maintain their lives through out. But now God was not their master but Satan. And he being their master imbibed his qualities in them. As time passed men and women indulged in sin and became more corrupt. Now they made their own gods and started worshiping them. But God could not forget them. He still longed for them
The Bible says. “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23)
The Bible also says. “There is no one righteous,
there is no one who understands,
no one who seeks God.
All have turned away,
they have together become worthless
there is no one who does good,
not even one.(Romans 3:10-12)
When man and woman had fellowship with God, they were as good as their creator, but now they were fallen couple. First they became sinners and also worthless. They stopped seeking God. And whatever curses they incurred passed on to the future generations. Thus everybody became sinner. As a sinner people do not have access to God’s presence. Though man stopped following God and started worshiping his own man made god, but his creator the living God could not forget him. His intense love made him to think otherwise to bring mankind back to himself. God chalked out a new and powerful plan to execute on this planet. He decided to send His own son Jesus Christ in this world.
Jesus came and preached salvation, love and forgiveness. He also knew weakness of the people. So Jesus said to them. “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”(Mathew 11:28) Jesus knew that people are burdened with sin and they could not pay the penalty for their sins. He loved them. His love and compassion made him to go on the cross and shed his precious blood, so that they may be set free from the hold of the Devil. In order to set them free He preferred to die and instead pay the penalty for them.
If you feel that you are burdened with sin and unable to bear it’s pressure, come to Jesus. His invitation is still available. What is required is your decision. Decide it before it is too late so that you can receive mercy and blessings. If so, come and say the following prayer when you are alone.
“Lord Jesus, I believe that I am a sinner. I also believe that you died for my sins. Lord Jesus please forgive my sins and cleanse my heart with your precious blood. Loving Jesus thanks for forgiving my sins and also thanks for cleansing my heart. Come in my heart and make my heart your dwelling. Also give me the gift of the Holy Spirit. Lord Jesus thanks for giving me your Spirit. I promise to read your word everyday and also promise to obey your teaching. Heavenly Father I praise and worship you. I also adore you in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.”
If you have done, then just believe that Jesus has come in your heart. He will bless you for your obedience and fill your heart with his peace. He will also bless your work, your family. You will find the difference within few weeks. Do not forget to tell this GOOD NEWS to your family, your relatives, your friends and neighbors. Let them receive blessings because of you. Bye. God loves you.




 
God's word mis true.
by Sebastian D'Souza on 14th Aug, 2010
Dear friends,

This morning I would like to tell you what God has put in my heart. One thing we know for sure that God loves each one of us and also we know that like his Father Jesus also loves us. His ministry was to show the way to the people and lead them to repentance. While preaching Jesus made known to the people his God given authority and power of his word. He said.
“Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.”(Mathew 24:35)
And seven hundred years before Jesus, prophet Isaiah prophesied about the authority and power of his word saying.
“So is my word that goes out of my mouth; It will not return to me empty, but accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.”(Isaiah 55:11)

If you read these two quotations which are given above, you will come to know that Jesus’ words are true and they are really making impact on the world. Gospel is being preached all over the world 24X7 and changing lives of millions of people. There are many other religious books but none can make such impact on people’s lives as compared to the Bible. I am amazed when I see the effect of his word on my life. It was in 1962 seventeen years before my conversion to Christianity, one person came to me with the gospel. He was our school peon when I was studying. He was talking about Jesus but nothing went to my head. Though my eyes were on him but my mind was wondering as to who gave him such knowledge that he could speak so fluently about Jesus. I sent him empty handed since I did not accept Jesus as my Savior.
Again in 1978 one person came to my house with the gospel and told me about Jesus. This time I gave patiently my ear to his each and every word. While discussing he just mentioned that I am a sinner. Though I did not like but still did not react. He too went empty handed. One day as I was sitting alone, those words that man had spoken came back to my mind and started thinking about the gospel. Being Catholic I knew Jesus and I followed him. But I didn’t knew much about Jesus. That man had told me to read the Bible. So in order to know more about Jesus I thought of reading the New Testament. Next day I managed to get one copy from the school library where I was teaching. As I went on, I found that whatever information I had about Jesus was too little. I was knowing only about his birth and death and nothing more. I kept reading for nearly ten months. Gospel became my favourite book. I never knew that the words spoken earlier by those two persons were still in my subconscious mind and were making tremendous effect on my life. One day as a family, when we were praying God convicted me of my sinful life. I did not delay but repented immediately and committed my life to Jesus. And accepted him as my Savior. God had to wait patiently for 16 years till his words which were spoken through two witnesses, were fulfilled. Because that was the only way I could save myself from sin and destruction of my soul. And now when I think about words spoken by Isaiah are true. Those very words have changed my life. First they changed my heart by bringing conviction in me and then in my mind by renewing it. And now after thirty one years of Christian life, my life is totally changed. His word has become my breath. Jesus lives in me. I breath Jesus, I smell Jesus, I hear Jesus and now I don’t live but Jesus lives in me. His words have done the work which God desired when those two men spoke to me. His words have not returned empty, but have accomplished what God desired and achieved the purpose for which God sent it. Hallelujah. Glory be to God.

Hear the voice of the Lord Jesus Christ.
by Sebastian D'Souza on 16th Aug, 2010

“ My sheep listen to my voice,I know them and they follow me.” ( John 10:27)

Dear friends,
Christian greetings.The above words are spoken by the Lord Jesus Christ.He knew his sheep and he gave call to his sheep.Even today he calls his sheep through the message proclaimed by his people all over the world.One will hear his call on Radio and Television day and night.Even his servants are found distributing tracks house to house and at public places.Being God and Lord of this world,why he had to do it? Simply because he does not want any of his sheep missing.He is a good Shepherd and being good Shepherd he doesn’t want his sheep to remain with the evil one.Therefore he says.

“ Come to me,all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest.”

Jesus know as far as his sheep is in this world they are in the hands of the evil one because this world itself is in evil’s hand.(1 John 5:19) All are not going to listen his voice but only his sheep.That’s why Jesus says. “ I have other sheep that are not of this pen.I must bring them also.They too listen to my voice and there shall be one flock and one Shepherd.” (John 10:16)

Today Jesus is searching his sheep.And as per his words only those people who belong to him will listen to his voice and come into his fold.They will only follow him and nobody else.There are some people who think that Jesus is their shepherd but they cannot recognize his voice and they refuse to come into his flock.Why? Because they don’t belong to him.Some are misguided and thus they are wandering in darkness not knowing where they are going.In real sense they being held captive by the evil one under the pretext of religion.Jesus is patiently waiting for them to realize their mistake and repent and come into his fold.Jesus is a compassionate Father and because of his love,he is having patience,waiting like a father of a prodigal son.
Today if you hear his voice and if you feel that you belong to him,do not harden your heart saying I will think some other day.My dear friend other day may not come,because you don’t know what will happen tomorrow.Jesus’ coming is very near.He will come and take his flock where they will be with him for ever.And you will remain here on this earth.


 
"Go and tell what the Lord has done."
by Sebastian D'Souza on 22nd Aug, 2010
“Go and tell, what the Lord has done.”

I was born in a Catholic family. And because I was a trained graduate I succeeded in getting teacher’s job in English medium school. But I had two bad habits. One is smoking and the other one was drinking. Half of my salary was wasted in these two vices. And remaining half I had to manage with other expenses, which was very difficult. I was so addicted to smoking and drinking, though I wanted to leave I could not. There seems to be no way out. One day a man came to my house and started telling about Jesus. I brushed him off thinking, I know Jesus. Week after week, he used to visit me and request to read bible. One day I thought, if I read bible how he is going to be benefited? I decided to read and managed to get one copy of the New Testament from the school library, and started reading. Some how I found interesting and continued until I finished the whole book in ten months except the book of Revelation.
As a Catholic I was taught catechism, going for mass, confession and communion. Whatever I was doing I thought, I knew God and God is happy about it. I was under wrong impression. But after completion of reading the New Testament, I came to know that whatever I was doing is not as per God’s teaching or requirement and I am not going to reach out to God. Fear gripped my heart. In those days my wife requested that we should pray as a family. I agreed and everyday evening we used to have family prayer along with our four daughters. While praying the fear I had in my heart, burst out and I broke down. I don’t know how long I was crying in front of my wife and daughters. God brought all sins to my mind in flashback and I cried saying. “God save me.” but when I stopped my heart had great peace. I wiped my tears and we finished our prayer.
Next day I found altogether different. On my way to school I found myself in strange joyous mood. I also found the sky different, trees different and even green fields looking different, every thing different. I was in joyous mood and felt like singing. I was wondering as to why I was so happy? I also felt that I should tell this good news to others. From that day I started telling people in the village to repent and accept Jesus as Savior. He would make them happy, and he would give them new life. Since I was convinced that we come to know God only by reading New Testament, I also started telling people to read New Testament.
