Geetha Arthi (1983-2009)

First of all, Wish you all a very Happy valentine’s day!!!

This is a happy event for many of us. But for some women that might not be the case.  This post is dedicated to my friend Geetha Arthi who committed suicide on account of dowry torture, a couple of years ago.

Today, she is no more. But Oh! How I wish she were alive. Recently when I was seeking the Lord about a personal reason, the Lord said this to me. “When ‘you’ desire to come close to me, how in the world will I turn you away”!!! That offered a world of comfort to my soul. By the grace of God, I have a loving husband, in-laws and a loving home. But sure, there are things in my Life that I can share it with NONE!!! Not even my Mom, Dad, brother or husband!!! Those are the times when I look up to Heaven for a comforting word and a re-assuring embrace. If only our hearts can find our security in Jesus, precious souls such as my friend Geetha Arthi, would not be lost.

This time of the year, I’d like to take the opportunity to encourage hurting hearts and tell you that JESUS CARES. When you go to Him, He will NEVER NEVER NEVER push you away. That’s a promise!!!

“Come near to God and he will come near to you.” James 4:8

When the world seems cold and your friends seem few,
There is someone who cares for you;
When you’ve tears in your eyes, your heart bleeds inside,
There is someone who cares for you.

Someone to care, someone to share,
All your troubles like no other can do;
He’ll come down from the skies, brush the tears from your eyes,
You’re His child and He cares for you.


Remember those who are hurting this valentine’s day and be a channel of Love in their lives!!!

Happy valentine’s day once again!!!

Have a fabulous month ahead!!!
