THE HERO

Who is your hero?



Unfortunately we tend to have imaginary heroes or heroes who are far from us or heroes who are limited in only one aspect of life. And I guess they do not have a strong real impact on our life, now let me show you a real hero, who is a hero in everything he does, he is very close to you and can make you a hero too.

Imagine you are playing in a football team, sorry but you are not a good player nor any member of your team, while the other team is really strong (lets say Brazil). It is the world cup final and every thing in your life is depending on this match “It is your life”. Now how do you feel? How will you perform? No hope and you can not do any thing to avoid the defeat.

But suddenly Jesus stepped in and offered to help your team, He will not play as a striker nor as a play maker, even though he is perfect in both, Jesus will be the goalkeeper which means no matter how good is the other team they will never be able to score.



Can you see how your life is different now?
Then Jesus told you that he will help you with directions on how to play, he is an expert and he knows every thing about this game. Now is not it totally different? I am sure you will attack the other team confidently, you will not be afraid any more, and you will have fun learning the skills of the game and at the end you will celebrate the victory no matter how good the other team was.

Enjoy your journey as you have Jesus a great priest who has gone through the heavens. Hold firmly to the faith in your battle, he sympathizes with our weaknesses, he never lost a battle and will never lose yours, lets take from him the grace and mercy we need to win our battles.

A good and an uptodate analogy of the existing fact that Jesus is in the game, although it may sound too modern to us as eastern Christians but on the other hand it sounds impacting and fine.

God is faithful

Mosses, David, Abraham and Joseph When we think of them we think of the salvation leader of Israel, the mighty king of praise, the blessed father of faith, the man who defeated sin and hanger. These are the ideas that come to our minds when we remember them, but in their history there is something different, something common between those heroes and period of time they all lived with faith above all doubts. And here it is; they all kept their faith in God while they were waiting for his promises to come true. It took God 40 years to reveal to Mosses how he will use him to deliver his nation, while David lived rejected and escaping from the king even though he was the anointed real king, Abraham was promised a blessings and a son who shall inherit this blessing while all wisdom and previous experiences were saying this was impossible and unreasonable. Finally Joseph was given a vision from God and for years he was treated as a guilty slave in jail. They all waited in the hard time, in t

This should be my life

Today I asked myself what is the most important thing in my life? It is a familiar question but finding the best answer is so important because this answer will determine your priorities, choices, goals and plans otherwise your life is just hanging around with no clear purpose or principles. The first idea that came to my mind is to be happy, but wait a minuet I recognize this voice, I usually hear it while I am hungry or tired. Yeah! it is the voice of the natural human living within me. Happiness can't be a reason for living otherwise I will be so self-centered and greedy. Happiness supposed to be a result of achieving a higher goal. But what is a good target? How about the challenge to work as hard as possible to achieve my targets lets say success, money, power or even competing with others to be a better person. No way, I still have the same problem, this also sounds even more selfish Since my first two guesses were self-centered, I started to look around me and realized I am

How to deal with healthcare burdens

  “The doctor has just told me I have pancreases cancer. I didn’t hear anything he said after that, would you please explain to me what does this mean again.” “Can you check for me again the diagnosis, I thought I have lung cancer but the papers mentioned something about kidney cancer and you said the drug is for kidney cancer, correct? I thought I have only one cancer.” A patient in his early forties sounded brilliant, full of energy and so friendly over the phone. He thought he had a cold but was told it is a late-stage cancer with a very low survival rate. A woman in her twenties said, “I take my transplant medications every day. I almost lost my kidney functions. I don’t want to lose this kidney because my previous three transplants have already failed. “ The last clinical note read, “He was upset he needs a bone marrow transplant. He knows his chances are not high” I prepared my call, trying to be encouraging, and when I called, I was told he passed away. How do you dea
