I looked at him quizzicaly. My husband says that often, that I thought he was saying it without meaning. Wouldn't monotonous repetitive stuff make it go awry?
Dad said, the first thing he says when he gets up from sleep is ' paramandalil irukum engal pidhavae'. He pauses there for some time, imagining God in Heaven his throne, the Son our High Priest and the Holy Spirit. I guess that's his throne room experience. What excited me was the number of times he goes there throughout the day. He said, when you see me doing nothing, I am most probably saying it in my mind. I never stay idle, for if I let my mind wander devil will get a foothold.
Now that's something. Throne room, not only during morning time, but throughout the day, whenever you get some time, you sneek into the throne room! To bask in His presence for that's actually where you belong.
Dad said, I am already in heaven..though I am still here.
Bet dad's mind is filled with heaven that nothing on earth shakes him. Lol

Wow! Our quite times should continue into the loud times as well.
" I never stay idle, for if I let my mind wander devil will get a foothold." A gem of a statement. Quite rare to hear. Motivates and encourages to live against the way of the world.
