Look, don't be prisoners of the past...

My friends, don't be a prisoner of the past..
Some people are always dwelling on their disappointments...
They just can't understand why their prayers aren't answered...
why their financial problems were still there...
and why they were ill treated or mistreated...

They don't realize the power of negative sayings..
They don't realize that they are allowing their past..
to poison their future..

God has a new beginning in store for all..
and restore what's been stolen, but they won't let go of hate..
They don't want to let go of their miseries...
They don't want to let go of their past...

Unfair things might have happened to you...
Make a decision that you are quiting reliving those...
Make a decision to quit from remembering those memories...
Instead, think on good things that will build you up once again...

Forgive the people who have hurt or mistreat you...
Rid yourself off the feelings of bitterness or regrets...
And forget and forgive them and yourself...
Quit looking back... strive forward, that is what we are going to do...


The past is a guest, tomorrow is a stranger...

The past is a guest...
Tomorrow is a stranger...
Now is the 'present'!

God and us should live in the present..
Most of us dwell in our past..
Running the present worrying about the future...
Worrying ourselves out and feeling depressed....

Everybody goes through disappointments...
and setbacks from time to time...
but if we hold on to hurt and pain...
we end up living negative and bitter lives...

Maybe we have made some mistakes...
Maybe we have made some poor choices...
and now you are tempted to sit around and feeling guilt..
and condemned thinking something such as..

"I wish I had been more careful.."
"I wish I had chosen another career.."
"I wish I had married that other person.."
"I wish I had been a better parent..'

It is so easy to live life focused on that reviewed mirror..
We can't do anything about the past...
and we have no guarantees regarding the future..
But we can do something for ourselves right now.....

Right now, shape up and look good...
Right now, take a deep breathe and smile...
Right now, start your studies and get going....
Right now, plan your work and work your plan....

Remember, universal love is the answer to all....

Who isnt a sinner? All of us are...

Sometimes, somehow, somewhere....
we committed mistakes, small or big...
Our flesh is weak, our mind sometimes unsettled...
Yet it is still our choice to be or not to be...
It is still our choice to continue or not to...

Happy are those who realize one's sins...
Happy are those who really care for their souls..
What had happened have happened...
And our God is forever forgiving us...
But we should be sincere and getting nearer to our goals...

A step a day, we walk our spiritual journey...
No one can walk that for us...no one..
It is just us, just you and me... just everybody..
To be fully responsible for what we did...
To be fully realized and not to repeat the same mistakes...

God knows our intention...
God knows our weaknesses...
God loves to know that we are repending...
God knows everything about us...
There is nothing to hide at all, yes nothing to hide at all...

Be courageous, be faithful... it is really not easy...
But no matter how, the decision need to be made...
For the better or for the worst..
God loves us all and provides us with this wisdom..
And all will turn out safe and sound, happy and blissful...

One should exercise control over the senses... and see that one do not repeat our mistakes...

Though you are committing many sins,
you do not consider them as sins.
You think that they are quite natural to human beings.
You keep committing mistakes, '
yet you pray for pardon.

Actually, one should never seek
pardonfor the mistake committed.
One should beprepared to undergo the punishment.
Only then can one be free from defects.

When a person commits
a serious offence, he is put in a jail.
He is released only after he undergoes
the punishment for the required period.

Likewise, if you want redemption,
you should atone for your sins and
be prepared to face punishment for your mistakes.

You should exercise control over
the senses and see that you do not repeat your mistakes.
