I'm not  sure whether my friends who use to check my blog when I started will  ever land in this page. With such a thought running in the background,  I've decided to capture the moment with electronic ink. Its been 9860  days since I stepped into this world. From Anik spray, Farex to Whey  Protein, lean boy to muscular man, Water paint to Photoshop, no-school  cries to 14-hours-a-day-in-office, things have changed and evolved but  cannot fathom the Love of the Father in Heaven which has not changed  even to the negligible decimals. God in His sovereign wisdom has  orchestrated everything to perfection, starting from every drop of water  that I consume, every breath I take, the scenic beauty that I enjoy,  the tough times I pass through and the joyful moments I cherish to draw  me closer to Him. When I look back at my stride, I might regret the  things I've done, which I wouldn't be proud of, but I will never regret  God's intervention in all those moments. This is to testify that there  is a God who is concerned of us in spite of our knowledge of His  existence. Psalmist beautifully says, "In Your Light, we see light". We  never acknowledge the presence of the light which makes us enjoy the  different hues around us, yet it is the light which is the reason for  the colors we see. God through His glorious Light has blessed us with  this wonderful life, but we mostly fail to acknowledge His existence.  Among those 9860 days, it were those moments which I've spent  acknowledging God's existence have been the reason for the sustenance of  the personality Dinesh. My dear loved ones, I would have wronged you at  times because of my finite understanding of the things to come. Forgive  me for such instances and remember that Jesus loves you and HE will  fulfill His purpose for your life.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9204396343703929916-5078786245663956130?l=dineshabraham.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dineshabraham.blogspot.com/feeds/5078786245663956130/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9204396343703929916&amp;postID=5078786245663956130' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9204396343703929916/posts/default/5078786245663956130'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9204396343703929916/posts/default/5078786245663956130'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dineshabraham.blogspot.com/2011/08/9860-days.html' title='9860 Days'/><author><name>Dinesh Abraham</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17043983178728025270</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9204396343703929916.post-8870235658853856827</id><published>2007-05-28T17:22:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T04:22:46.643-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Purpose'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Meaning'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Love of my Life'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Love'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Joy'/><title type='text'>Ore Loves for ...</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZIEwYwB2O_U/RluVb8_TorI/AAAAAAAAADE/M8Q5kvKT_4g/s1600-h/agapao-bg_800.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 339px; height: 254px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZIEwYwB2O_U/RluVb8_TorI/AAAAAAAAADE/M8Q5kvKT_4g/s400/agapao-bg_800.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5069810112996287154" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;    C&lt;/span&gt;ouldn't justify myself by keeping all the excitement within me without sharing, when everyone's talking about a crazy little thing called L.O.V.E. In reality, its the biggest thing. 'Love is in the air!' Is there anyone to disagree? I recently read a blog of my friend talking about Love! Way too impressive, for I've never seen his creativity to its heights. Love, makes people go high in their senses as if someone's hitting hard on the gas pedal of a formula one ferrari (Doesn't make me a ferrari fan!)! High acceleration, nitro-booster thrills, and sheer excitements were alway been the symptoms of Love. Love has been an easy way for a cloud 9 expedition!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember a beautiful quote which slipped out from someone(couldn't remember who it was)!&lt;br /&gt;"&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;It hurts because, people FALL in LOVE!  Instead, why shouldn't they try a proper landing gear?&lt;/span&gt;" Sounded funny, but its worth a thought, though its not what I'm actually talking about. Even heard some great personalities, whom i personally admire state that, "Love hurts!". Does it really? Read many,(when i say many, i mean it!) articles on Love, written by its critics(not really) as well as its admirers, but none could take the place of a piece of scripture, which describes the characteristics of Love! Wow! No one could disagree with that specific chapter, written by a person who has been running around with an agenda. Its amazing, he had no close relations mentioned in the scripture, whom he's been inspired of! But fell in Love with Someone, whom he met "in a vision" while on a mission to Damascus! Couldn't believe, this encounter made him, what he could never have been! This solitary, yet an ambitious, brave, passionate and dynamic person was talkin about Love, which none can deny! Wow! Way to go Paul! You are rocking!!! He says "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Love is patient,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;love is kind. &lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;It does not envy,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;it does not boast,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;it is not proud.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;It is not rude,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;it is not self-seeking,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;it is not easily angered,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;it keeps no record of wrongs. &lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. &lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;It always protects,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;always trusts,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;always hopes,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;always perseveres.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Love never fails.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People have lost the "LOVE of their life" and struggled half way down to keep it going the way it was. Questions were tossing in my mind, thinking about the intricacies and complications defined by LOVE in the arena of LIFE! I'm not here to justify what is true LOVE and what is NOT, but would LOVE to leave a thought worth working on to make you the master of LOVE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Few days ago, I had the opportunity to have a brief chat with somenone whose name is synonymous to that of a lush green, dew spread, sun kissed and flower tinted country meadow!&lt;br /&gt;There is a reason for describing this persona for she expounded the secret of the most longed for, crazy big thing called LOVE in just a small 5 word sentence. She, struck the exact chord which reverberates me to the hidden treasure in me, which i believe, lies in each one of us, left unattended. This mere realisation of the fact that, the LOVE OF OUR LIFE is still waiting for our attention, to make us all what we ought to be, erupts an invincible joy, spreading the scintillating feeling all through me! This makes me realise, the reason and the ultimate purpose for which we have been running around without knowing where to look for. Even Paul, was obsessed with it! This LOVE has made him what He was. This LOVE changes lives, sets people free from bondages and addiction, makes them run the race with all that they have, makes them fight  the battle  with valour and honour! All these glorious truths where hidden in "My LOVE", which she beautifully crafted in one small sentence, which i would exhort you to think over and over again! The sentence in her own lingo (with a blush on her face which i couldn't actually see because of the mode of communication, but could actually sense) (nothing could sound so romantic) which made a big difference was "Ore Loves for JESUS da!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZIEwYwB2O_U/RluPkM_TopI/AAAAAAAAAC0/CI24thzqcAE/s1600-h/9f66549829537e4411742b6nh8.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 412px; height: 49px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZIEwYwB2O_U/RluPkM_TopI/AAAAAAAAAC0/CI24thzqcAE/s320/9f66549829537e4411742b6nh8.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5069803657660441234" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZIEwYwB2O_U/RluP-s_ToqI/AAAAAAAAAC8/Cs0KAtEObeo/s1600-h/joh.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 89px; height: 16px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZIEwYwB2O_U/RluP-s_ToqI/AAAAAAAAAC8/Cs0KAtEObeo/s320/joh.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5069804112926974626" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9204396343703929916-8870235658853856827?l=dineshabraham.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dineshabraham.blogspot.com/feeds/8870235658853856827/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9204396343703929916&amp;postID=8870235658853856827' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9204396343703929916/posts/default/8870235658853856827'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9204396343703929916/posts/default/8870235658853856827'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dineshabraham.blogspot.com/2007/05/ore-loves-for.html' title='Ore Loves for ...'/><author><name>Dinesh Abraham</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17043983178728025270</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZIEwYwB2O_U/RluVb8_TorI/AAAAAAAAADE/M8Q5kvKT_4g/s72-c/agapao-bg_800.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9204396343703929916.post-2390729640006815009</id><published>2007-05-04T11:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-05-04T11:42:36.312-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Inspiration!!!</title><content type='html'>I deeply acknowledge the person who was a second inspiration next to Jesus to start blogging!&lt;br /&gt;Prof.Subiksha!!!

The only comfort about the fans were that, it kept us from getting wet with sweat. Inspite of the scorching heat, there was no lack of joy and excitement, as the new chorus was filling the hearts with an invincible joy. The song was "Jeevikkiraar, yesu jeevikkiraar...."(&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Jesus is alive&lt;/span&gt;). VBS was never so exciting as it was, when i was in my eighth.&lt;br /&gt;To bring the soaring spirits down, the  fans  stopped  spinning  as if someone's trying  to  apply  brake on the bearings.  The person on stage with a never give-up attitude, said "lets sing this new song once again with all that we have, and when we finish, God will provide us the electricity. No idea, how he dare to say that power supply will start flowing again. To our amusement, the power turned on exactly when the song ended. That moment was an unforgettable one! a great lesson too!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That was not the end of the story. Came back home and htrew the excitement on everyone. At the end of the summer holiday, got ready to move to my home from my loving grandma's house. (miss them a lot!!!) Waiting for the bus made me restless, resulting in the genesis of a great miracle singer. Started humming the verses of the song. To my mother's amusement tis time, the bus came as soon as i ended the song. And still it was not the end.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Never failed to use this song, when i use to stand at the railway station t the last moments, waiting for the one which goes to avadi. (Onlt source of transport to my college(St. Peter's engineering) ). During those golden days of my engineering, we had a get together, and on the way back home, we were stuck in a small concrete roofed bus stop in a small village because of rain. I told my friend, that the rain will stop if i sing that beautiful song. It still makes me wonder how i said that, but i did. This time, no idea what was going to happen, but with a little hope, stretched my hand out of the shade to check whether the shower has stopped. It didn't! But didn't give up, as i have completed only the first stanza. Had one more stanza to stretch the time, but the one who acknowledged the song was so faithful, that the shower stopped. We were thrilled at the splendor and power of the hero of that song.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Days have passed, sorry, years have passed, but the incidents have not faded. No more trials with that lovely song. Even today, the miracle continues! The song was nothing special in terms of its tune, but it was very powerful because of its hero. Whoever you might be, the one reading this, you can definitely taste the wonder in your life, not by singing the same song, but by trusting the Hero of this song! Even the bible say, "His Name is Wonderful". Just try Him. Tell Him what you feel. He will do a miracle, rather He will be a miracle in your Life!
