Kairos - April 2018

In this issue

April edition of Kairos puts a valiant attempt to make us realize how important it is to prepare for the death – the uninvited guest who has started his walk towards us from the day of our birth. This volume is rich in various testimonies and enriching experiences which challenge and provoke us to face death cheerfully and to embrace it like St. Francis of Assisi. Article by Resmy Roy and testimony of Sajan C.A. explain the grief of two men losing their wives to the death. They share their heart-warming story of how they could pray like Job during the time of this unexpected misfortune. In the article “Veettilekkulla Vazhi”, Sasi Emmanuel urges us to live in the same sanctity which we wish to have during the time of our death. He quotes example from the lives of various personalities who embraced death in different ways. In”Daivathinte Maunam”, he also explains diplomatically how ‘true love’ is misunderstood and misinterpreted in the modern world. In another emotive testimony, Mini Palakkad narrates how God works on our prayer intensions and give us the response only at the right time and in the most fitting way. In the testimonies of Saji Paniyarkutty and Augustine Kodanadu, we encounter a God who never abandon us in the slightest of our difficulties or confusion .Naveen. J unfolds in a sarcastic way how funerals are used these days to exhibit pomposity and haughtiness. As a precursor for the upcoming Jesus Youth Kerala Conference 2018, we can also read the testimonies of people who have taken part in various Jesus Youth conferences in the past
