Today’s verse:

Luke 9:24

Anyone who loses life for my sake will save it.

 

Lent begins

My lent resolutions:

1. Learn one Bible verse by heart each day.
2. Give up reading London Metro on the way to work and Evening standard on the way back and pray Rosary (at least one full rosary each day)

Here is today’s verse.

Joel 2:12  Come back to me with all your heart.

My cup Overfloweth (The Lord is my Shepherd)

PSALM 22:1-3.5-6

R The Lord is my shepherd

There is nothing I shall want

The Lord is my shepherd

There is nothing I shall want

Fresh and green are the pastures

Where he gives me repose               R

Near restful waters he leades me

to revive my drooping spirit

He guides me along the right path

He is true to his name                     R

You have prepared a banquet for me

In the sight of my foes

My head you have anointed with oil

my cup is overflowing                     R

Surely goodness and kindness shall follow me

all the days of my life

In the Lord’s own house shall i dwell

for ever and ever                             R

An amazing blogger!

If you want to read a great blog, you should go to Pallavi’s ‘Crocodile’s Tales’.

I like it so much that I am adding it in my favourites.  Her blogs are very refreshing. And I respect her deeply for the principled stand she takes on several issues.

Way to go Pallavi!

Tennis

Started playing Tennis.  Learning to play rather.

After one week into this, my feeling is that the whole thing is overrated really. Arguably from the fact that I suck at this. My movement in court is as if I am wearing heavy magnetic boots.
