It’s bigger than your any problem. But if God is only giving it to you to make you hap- py and if you haven’t said to Him, ‘‘God give me only what makes you happy,’’ you’re going to holding something half-heartedly. The miracle has come true, but the miracle has no magic. Anything stolen, will be snatched away. HEART FELT Cyrus H Merchant

You can steal with pray- er even, cajole, beg, cry; God will have mercy. But His universe and His an- gels which work for the be- tterment of His world, will lead you to return it. They know what we think we know.There is truly no joy in getting something if God doesn’t have joy in giving it. Right now you probably think this guy doesn’t kn- ow what he’s talking abo- ut, my dream is precious and I want it. I can hear you silently say all of this. But trust me, if God’s giv- ing it out of endearing ex- asperation, it won’t en- dear itself to you for long. Answered prayers are sometimes very danger- ous. Don’t ask for anything except a very healthy Life and a very spiritual Life. If at all you want to ask, ask Him for what He wants you to do with your Life, love, time. Ask for His fri- endship. HE’s a jaan. His friendship is the only thi- ng really worth having. His friendship alone will fill you up, make you real- ly, really happy. If He wants to give you some- thing, He’ll give it. You don’t seek your dream. You just seek Him, He will take care of your dream. Like you, I once thought that the answer to happi- ness was to have what I wanted most — then some- time ago, I got what I want- ed most and I realised that no — my God wasn’t hap- py. My God wasn’t happy. How can I stand happy in joy at my prayer table, in front of the fire at the Agiary if I don’t see God’s happiness from the other side. I’d rather be miser- able with Him, than happy without Him. God and par- ents and close loved ones- to be fully blessed, you need the joy of those that matter most to you. Everybody manages a happy hour, I want a hap- py lifetime in the Light. Sunday as spring’s first auspicious moment was ushered in, bearing with it, the promise of a re- newed happy Life for all creation, I thought to my- self that really who cares about what I want, what

The 34-year-old singer, meanwhile, says she is de- lighted to be working with the legendary artist. ‘‘I feel very honoured to be wel- comed into Rafael’s world of dance,’’ declared the petite songstress. ‘‘The choreogra- phy is so exciting and dis- tinct.’’ Kylie’s performance will be beamed onto a 30- foot gauze screen while live dancers take to the stage for the performance of 21.
