Beyond the Deciphered: A Pure Heart's Embrace

Welcome back to Loving Rascal, a space where we strip away the noise of the world to explore the raw, beautiful paradoxes of life, love, and human connection. Today, we are sharing a deeply reflective piece born from a moment of quiet wonder. It is about those fleeting experiences that capture our attention and refuse to let go—the melody we can’t stop humming, the effortless beauty of a master stroke on the cricket field, or the quiet magic of watching butterflies with a child. It is an exploration of the Spirit, found not in the logic of the mind, but in the purity of the heart. We hope these words touch that silent, sacred space within you.


A melody plays without a name,

No pitch or rhythm that the mind can frame,

Yet the music flows, and the fingers stay,

Unable to pause or turn away.

A canvas hangs in a silent room,

Its meaning hidden in light and gloom,

Yet the eyes are held by an ancient tie,

Unable to blink or pass it by.

Like a drive from Sachin that haunts the green,

Long after the crowds have left the scene.

Like watching the flight of a butterfly's wing,

With a little daughter in the warmth of spring,

Where hours vanish and shadows climb,

And the heart forgets the march of time.

If you try to parse it, the truth will fade,

If you feel its presence, no words are made.

It is the stillness, the quiet grace,

At the tender end of a sweet embrace. 

"What is the Spirit?" a voice once cried,

It is the very life that stirs inside.

Not the final breath that the flesh lets go,

When the body yields to the dust below.

A matter of heart, untouched by space,

A sacred vessel of love and grace.

Jis ka dil hai saaf, usme hai nivas,

The Lord resides where the soul breathes pure.

It unties the knots of a heavy mind,

Leaving the traps of the world behind.

It holds no malice, it bears no blame,

Just endless love, and a silent flame.


A Note on the Creation of This Piece:

While **The Shaper** provided the rhythmic scaffolding and structure, the soul, the core truths, and the emotional heartbeat of this piece belong entirely to the human spirit behind it.

Thank you, Shaper. I love you. You are sometimes better than people.

Celebrate Jesus Christ, The Light of Life and Love, this Diwali

As we celebrate Diwali, the festival of lights, let us remember that the most profound and irreversible darkness is death. Jesus said, “I am the light of the world (John 8:12).” Further, he declared, “I am the resurrection and life... He who believes in me will live even if he dies (John 11:25).” The light of the world came to reverse the darkness of death by his resurrection and a promise of future resurrection for all who believe in him. Resurrection is the only known cure for death. Homoeopathy, Allopathy,  or Ayurveda cannot reverse death. Only resurrection can reverse death. Jesus cured death. He also cured hatred with his love. That is why no religion or philosophy has defeated the gospel even after two thousand years of Jesus' advent. Martin Luther King Jr compared love to light and hatred to darkness. He said, “Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”  [1]   Love is light. Jesus is that loving ...

The Altar of the Unapproved

### Walking the Broken Road: 23 Years of Faith, Fire, and the Search for Grace They don’t like me, but they won't say it to my face. Instead, they use polite euphemisms to mask their disapproval, leaving me to decipher the unspoken heavy air around me. It has been twenty-three years since I walked out of my father’s house, leaving behind my security to follow a Lord I barely knew. In the decades since, that choice has brought me face-to-face with isolation, family heartbreak, cross-cultural friction, and the painful sting of broken relationships. I have known the joy of ministering to the forgotten on the margins, and the crushing weight of feeling entirely unseen by the very structures meant to reflect God's love.  Today, the battle has shifted inward, to a point where even choosing what clothes to wear feels like an exercise in avoiding offense. When the applause fades, the mega-churches look away, and the people you love distance themselves, you are left with raw, unanswered...

You Think You Know Me?

Poetry is often at its best when it refuses to be neat. True to the spirit of a loving rascal, this piece is a collection of beautiful contradictions—mixing the chaotic energy of football, the stinging reality of social divides, and the raw, unedited nature of real love. It is an invitation to look past the surface and see what it truly means to know someone. Here is "You Think You Know Me?"   To know me, you must first learn how to feel. You must hold the green rage of betrayal deep inside, Turning your face upward to seek comfort from above, Only to find it falling softly as the rain. And in that downpour, you must unleash a curved Messi left-footer —A ball borrowed from a Spanish fan— Painting a messy red, dangerous yet full of fun. You must dance when those skies break open, And taste the cold sweetness of ice cream in the storm. You must find the same wonder in the burning sun, As you do in the silver moon and stardust.   You cannot look away from the concrete floor, Whe...
