Few seconds with the Almighty

Waking up early in the morning, staying in the bed calm for few mins, feeling the silence, then following it up with few stretches, short walk etc get me ready for the day all with highly motivating positive energy.

After my shower, I generally pray God for couple of mins. At times I feel I am chanting some spiritual mantras just as a regular habit,or at times feel like greeting God and at times I feel I am talking to God (be it one-way,yet soothing to me as I can just pour down all my unlimited worries). I never really bothered or even attempted to see if I could hear back his responses...



However, guess the almighty has been firm in making me hear his responses this week.Thanks to Times Of India news paper(www.speakingtree.in Saturday publication) who disguised as a messenger and brought to me his voices... 

and here I try to save this chat for being able to share with my friends and also to not to lose this indispensable chat with God.

I did have few seconds listening to God finally when he taught me how to live life... Not sure if he whispered the same responses to you too....here is what I also heard :)

God : Hello. Did you call me?
Me : Called you? No. Who is this?
...

God : This is GOD. I heard your prayers.

Me : I do pray. Just makes me feel good. I am actually busy now. I am in the midst of something.



God : What are you busy at? Ants are busy too.
Me : Don’t know. But I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic. It’s rush hour all the time.

God : Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.
Me : Tell me, why has life become complicated now?

God : Stop analyzing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated.
Me : Why are we then constantly unhappy?

God : Your today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday. You are worrying because you are analyzing. Worrying has become your
habit. That’s why you are not happy.
Me : But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty?

God : Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional.
Me : But then, there is so much pain due to uncertainty…

God : Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.
Me : If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer?

God : Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don’t suffer.
With that experience their life becomes better, not bitter.
Me : You mean to say such experience is useful?

God : Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.
Me : But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can’t we be free from problems?

God : PROBLEMS are Purposeful Roadblocks Offering Beneficial Lessons to Enhance Mental Strength.
Inner strength comes from struggle and endurance, not when you are free from problems.
Me : Frankly in the midst of so many problems, we don’t know where we are heading…

God : If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken.
Eyes provide sight. Heart provides insight.
Me : Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the right direction. What should I do?

God : Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying
than knowing you rode ahead. You work with the compass. Let others work with the clock.
Me : In tough times, how do you stay motivated?

God : Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessing, not what you are missing.
Me : What surprises you about people?

God : When they suffer they ask, “why me?” When they prosper, they never ask “Why me?” Everyone wishes to have truth on their side, but
few want to be on the side of the truth.
Me : How can I get the best out of life?

God : Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.
Me : One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.

God : There are no unanswered prayers. At times the answer is NO.

Me : Thank you for this wonderful chat. I am so happy to start the New Day with a new sense of inspiration.

God : Well. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Don’t believe your doubts and doubt your beliefs. Life is a mystery to solve, not a
problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live..







Thank you God, for messaging me your replies via speakingtree.in!

Cheers,
Akshatha
