Prayer: a daily service (Psalm 63)

Prayer should never be uninportant to our lives. It is an essential part of our relationship with God. If we just pray when we feel like it, then our prayers will most probably be self centered. If we allow our prayers to flow out of our love and pure commitment to our beautiful God, then it is more likely that when we pray we think about Gods concerns and the concerns of others. Prayer afterall is all way to share or thoughts and release our feelings and love for others dont ever forget to talk to God, because we are not a lone. Ever, God wants us to talk to him!

Thought: payer can be the heartbeat of our relationship with God and our concern and love for those around us :)

God bless you :) xxx

In the world, but not of the world

' I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the worl, but that thou shouldest keep them from evil.' St John 17:15

I read this today and learned a lot from it. I think in many ways we as christians live life in much the same way as otheres, we go to school, get married, rejoice and mourn but we are also very different. This difference isnt just the fact we believe in Jesus Christ as our Lord but also the fact we want to make him the normative for our lives. We should want to have everything through Christ alone, in hime and for his sake. This is what makes us different because it doesnt fit with the worlds agenda as such and this often results in us being out of step with those around us. But we should care about what those who dismiss Jesus from their lives believe because we are the ones whose concern is to see God's rulership and grace established in the world.

Stay strong in who you are and your love for Christ even if the world says no.

Im back

I've been away for a long time. From not only this blog but my religion, alot happened and made me turn away from God.
It was only when I read a book about angels and God's love did I realise how much a part of my lifeGod and his Angels where to me and how much I needed it back to be whole again.
So Im back for good now carring on with my journey to be a woman of God, and i will be blogging on the way :) just remember that God sends messages to us through all gateways even the most unsuspected ways.
God Bless x

Diversity

Our life in Christ and our unity in the spirit does stop us from being unique. It stimulates diversity for God's work to make us  truly who we are meant to be. God did not create us with different gifts, different desires so we could all be the same. No, God created us with these gifts so that we can use them to help others, to save souls, to inspire those that are in need.  So if you are ever feeling useless, like you have to be like everyone else is because otherwise you are no one, talk to God in that moment. Speak from your heart, speak all that you have ever wanted to say. Because if no one else will understand, no one else cares, God is always there.

Don't ask God to make things easy, ask God to make YOU stronger!

When are praying we often find ourself asking for solutions, asking for things to get easier, we can't cope ect... But does it not sate in the bible that God will not provide you with any problems that are greater than you can cope with?
So when we feel like we are about to give up, remember God can make us strong! We do not have to give up, back down! No fight for what you want and don't give up! You are a soldier of God!

Strength in times of weakness

Today my best friend got really ill. She is like a sister to me and having the worry that she might get really ill one day, and I might loose her is always on my mind. Today she had to go into the medical room and I looked after her a bit. I felt so helpless. Like there was no way I could help her. That's when I remembered I still had my piece of cotton dipped in holy oil in my bag, I put it in her pocket and prayed for her. I put her in God's hands.

It is at times like this we must remember even if we may not be able to do anything, God can do anything. Nothing is imposable, and he is with her now. Even if she doesn't acknowledge that. He will do what is right, and we must accept that, even if it hurts us.

Forgiveness- The message from the Bishop

http://bispomacedo.com.br/en/2011/06/20/forgiveness/#more-3957

When I read this it becomes evident that often we blame the hatred and grudges that we hold, on the person that started it. We let in pull us down, and make us something we don't want to be. Its time we sat down and meditated.

Meditate to forget all the grudges all the darkness in you and let it go. Because otherwise we are letting this grudge grow into something worse, hate. God doesn't hate, Jesus doesn't hate. Merciful, loving, and forgiving is what we should aim to be. I know its hard to let go, but not everything in life is easy, and so it should be. How could we be strong soldiers of God when we are weak from having nothing but happiness?

Struggles

Recently I have felt very, in a way lonely. Those that were my friends seemed so distant, and I felt like I didn't exist most of the time. I just felt like I needed something, but I didn't know what. Last night was when I said enough. I have had micrains (horrible headaches) nearly everyday, and I was so angry. I went to my room and wanted to be alone. Mum came in worried because i looked ill she said, glaced eyes. She said she needed to wash her hair the next day, and I said there is mouse left for your hair the bottle is broken. She got annoyed because it was late and so left angrily to buy some. I was so SO angry, I wanted to rip everything apart. The worst thing was I didn't know why! I started smashing my head on my bed, biting and claw-ring at it going mad, I couldn't control what I was doing then I just broke down into tears.

I crawled into my bed, hugging myself. So alone. And decided to go and turn off the light to get some sleep. That's when the fear came, I was so convinced something was behind the door just about to jump up. I finally plucked up the courage to open the door but wherever I went to escape the fear I felt like I knew something was there to get me. I was terrified. I ran into my room to scared to leave the door open to scared to have it closed and not see the monster coming.

Thats when I prayed to my God, I asked him to make me not so alone to protect me... I pleaded with him.
The next day God provided. Now my friend comes to church with me, and has made me not so alone. She has one of the most beautiful hearts I have ever seen. And I pray that God will be with her when she needs him.

The lesson of this is sometimes we just need to drop our pride and ask for help. And those that constantly ask for help need to see that God will provide, but only when the time is right and you completely appreciate his blessing. Having my friend back, is all I needed. Someone who understands. <3 Sometimes its the smallest thing that can tackle the biggest problem.

Never Give up seeking!

No matter how much of a strong relationship we have with God, you should never give up trying to make that relationship stronger. He is your Father, your Savoir , your Spirit. Without God we would not be here, without God we would be nothing. He gives us hope, strength and peace and loves each and every one of us. 
So think next time you are about to go to bed or when you wake up in the morning and wonder "Can I be bothered to pray? Nah, God knows I love him through my actions, I go to church. I'm happy." no, you are not happy, because the stronger your relationship is with God, the stronger your faith, the more love, joy, peace and light will fill you. Because nothing in the world can fill us with such happiness than that that God can give us.
