Now when I say "Happy Halloween' to you, what am I saying? Happy day in which we celebrate limbs being torn off people and scattered on gardens? Happy day when we celebrate demons and the devil? Happy day in which we celebrate everything that is dark and evil? That would sound a tad crazy no?</p><p>Nevertheless so many people say"happy Halloween"! </p><p>Be counter cultural! Be a rebel , a true rebel and refuse to wish people a "Happy Halloween!"</p><p>In Halloween think about holiness. Think about how you can get closer to God. Think about having fun, yes, but fun that leads to holiness. In a world that is full of evil. In a world in which hatred reigns. In a world in which wars are raging. Be the difference. Refuse to be a robot. Refuse to just go with the flow. Be holy.</p><p>You want peace in the world? Be holy</p><p>You want love to reign? Be holy</p><p>You want Joy and Happiness? Be holy</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Be holy, everything you want starts with you!</b></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://www.amazon.com/Princess-Overalls-littleness-miracles-prayer/dp/0986560103/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394949520&sr=1-1&keywords=Princess+in+overalls</div>Ticaenexiliohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360253617097624017noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334753588853069430.post-63675914395586714482023-10-27T08:17:00.004-07:002023-10-27T08:22:32.137-07:00Parents Disrespecting the Privacy of their Teens - Is it ever OK ?<p><img class="board-asset" id="asset_466370314" ng-src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/seamless-pattern-vector-id466370314?k=6&m=466370314&s=612x612&w=0&h=hjmIbksJU_URKGzX4TafK_FPzh2xHb9LrEh8Q9i9oJs=" src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/seamless-pattern-vector-id466370314?k=6&m=466370314&s=612x612&w=0&h=hjmIbksJU_URKGzX4TafK_FPzh2xHb9LrEh8Q9i9oJs=" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I really have a heart for teens. Many people just dump them into this category of undesirables, a group of people judged as lost causes. Many people say: "Well we just need to wait....until they grow out of it", as if they are waiting for a virus to pass. I disagree.</p><p>I love the teen years. I feel that teens are amazing people that have a lot to offer to the world. Teens are humans full of love, full of hope, and with a passion for life. Often misunderstood, often frustrated by the rejection of adults these beautiful humans suffer in silence, and feel alone. Teens, those beautiful humans that have so much passion for life, long to love and to be loved, long for understanding and respect, and long for an opportunity to give to the world around them the best they have to offer. </p><p>I have met many parents that are so afraid of the teen years, that they become overbearing and clamp down on all fronts. These parents let fear set into their hearts, and accept the lie that : Teen agers are horrible human beings to be controlled at any cost. And they buy into the fallacy that the only solution, is to treat their teens as the enemy. </p><p>These parents stop listening to their kids and drown their children with unreasonable rules. Privacy means nothing to them. They who want respect from the world, offer none to those people they should love most; their own children. I know parents who read the private conversations over text on their children's phones, conversations that do not belong to them. Without permission or any respect, they snoop, spy, and they listen in. How is it, I wonder, that these parents expect a good honest relationship with their teen, when they themselves are incapable of offering basic respect and trust?</p><p> If you are a teen and you have parents who act this way, please do not despair. The first thing I would do is pray and ask God to step in. Ask God to move your parents's hearts and give grace to the situation. Then I would try to have a serious and honest conversation with one or both parents. Appeal to their love and explain how you feel. </p><p>If all else fails, be patient, offer it up. And perhaps most important vow to be different when you yourself are a parent. Fear can not trump love. remember what the Bible says: </p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>" Perfet love casts away all fear"</b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></p><p>If your parents are making you suffer you can learn from the situation, so that when it is your turn to be a parent, you are the kind of parent God would like you to be. A parent full of love and trust and not rule by fear.</p><p>If you are a parent, I invite you to pray. Pray that God will deepen your relationship with your child, so that you can get to know them better. Pray that God will show you a better way, other than becoming your children's spy, your children's own personal tyrant. We do not like governments that trample over our rights, but we ourselves trample constantly over our children's rights. </p><p style="text-align: center;"> That is not love, that can not be. </p><p> Practice at home what you preach, and have your home be the way you want the world to be like. </p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;">Lets lead our home with trust and love, not fear!</p><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://www.amazon.com/Princess-Overalls-littleness-miracles-prayer/dp/0986560103/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394949520&sr=1-1&keywords=Princess+in+overalls</div>Ticaenexiliohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360253617097624017noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334753588853069430.post-14371052034987775942022-10-18T07:58:00.002-07:002022-10-18T07:59:42.408-07:00Green?

That was "time from my life" that I will never get back. </span>Well,<span style="font-family: inherit;"> at least it made me think. I grabbed a cup of tea and sat next to my window, on the couch. Getting lost in though I wondered:</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;">Why are so many people such liars? </span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;">Why do people go around on their high horse, pretty much boasting that they are saving our planet, while in fact they are accelerating the rate in which our planet is being destroyed?</span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;">Huge companies, countless celebrities and politicians are selling lies, while they go around and travel the world non-stop, often in private jets. Here are a few other examples:</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span color="rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.952941)" style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.952941); letter-spacing: 0.5px;">As Justin Worland stated in an article in Time Magazine: "On a per passenger basis, private jets pollute as much as </span><a href="https://time.com/6208632/celebrities-climate-impact-private-jets-yachts/" style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 0.5px; padding: 1px 0px; text-decoration: none;">14 times more</a><span color="rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.952941)" style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.952941); letter-spacing: 0.5px;"> than their commercial counterparts, for example, and the Los Angeles community where these celebrities live is currently limiting outdoor watering to once per week. Celebrities, it might follow, are a key villain in the climate challenge."</span></span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span color="rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.952941)" style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.952941); letter-spacing: 0.5px;">A </span><a href="https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2022-08-22/kim-kardashian-kevin-hart-california-drought-water-waste" style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 0.5px; padding: 1px 0px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">report in the Los Angeles <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Times</em></a><span color="rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.952941)" style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.952941); letter-spacing: 0.5px;">found that some of the biggest names in Hollywood, including Sylvester Stallone, Dwyane Wade, Kevin Hart, and Kim Kardashian—had flouted drought restrictions at their properties, some exceeding their water allowances by comical proportions. Dwyane Wade’s property, for example, exceeded his allotted water budget by 489,000 gallons in May.</span></span></li></ul><p></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.20000000298023224px;">As Tom Lyon from Fastcompany.com shared, "Exxon Mobil has clearly engaged in this doubletalk. The corporation declared in its 2016 </span><a href="http://cdn.exxonmobil.com/%7E/media/global/files/corporate-citizenship-report/2016_ccr_full_report.pdf" style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 0.20000000298023224px; text-decoration-skip: objects; text-decoration: none;">Corporate Citizenship Report</a> <span style="letter-spacing: 0.20000000298023224px;">that “climate change risks warrant action by businesses, governments, and consumers, and we support the Paris Agreement as an effective framework for addressing this global challenge.” Yet the </span><a href="https://influencemap.org/report/Corporate-Carbon-Policy-Footprint-4274a464677481802bd502ffff008d74" style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 0.20000000298023224px; text-decoration-skip: objects; text-decoration: none;">nonprofit group InfluenceMap recently found</a><span style="letter-spacing: 0.20000000298023224px;"> that Exxon was one of the top three global corporations in lobbying against effective climate policy."</span></span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><div><span style="font-family: inherit;">In an article in "N Business" writer <span style="box-sizing: inherit;">Bjørn Lomborg shared: </span>"Christian Friis Bach's electric-powered vehicle was incapable of covering the 30km from his house to the palace without running out of power. So he put the electric mini-car inside a horse trailer and dragged it behind his petrol-powered Citroen for three-quarters of the trip, switching back to the mini-car when he neared the television cameras. <span style="letter-spacing: 0.2px;">The stunt produced more carbon emissions than if he had driven his car the entire distance. Unfortunately, the story is not a one-off."</span></span></div></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;">Many of the people in power pressure us and give us guilt trips, while they themselves continue to ravage the earth we live in. And for what? Have you ever asked yourself, for what reason? With what purpose in mind, is it that these politicians, celebrities and huge Corporations, lie and destroy? They have families. Many of these Corporate Wizards have children of their own. Why do they lie, while they destroy our earth? How can they ruin our planet, their kids's planet, while claiming that they are saving it? Why is it that they put heavy burdens on the rest of us, while they themselves often don't care?</span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;">It is all so evil! So evil, it is overwhelming.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;">I do not mean for this post to be dark. No, that is not my purpose. I just wish people would open their eyes. We are surrounded by evil. And if we do not understand we need a saviour, The One and only Saviour, then we are in fact doomed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;">Only God can help us be better, be honest, and take care of His beautiful creation. Only Jesus Christ His only Son can offer: an explanation, a hope, and a future. We need to take the message of the gospel seriously. Today we need to change. Today we need to trust. Today is the day we need to give ourselves, heart and soul, to Jesus Christ. All you need to do is say:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"> Lord Help me!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Lord change my life!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Lord Jesus I believe help my unbelief.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://www.amazon.com/Princess-Overalls-littleness-miracles-prayer/dp/0986560103/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394949520&sr=1-1&keywords=Princess+in+overalls</div>Ticaenexiliohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360253617097624017noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334753588853069430.post-1055833504687318982022-10-07T14:38:00.004-07:002022-10-15T07:27:03.557-07:00Hurricane - When all hell breaks loose<p><br /></p><p><img class="board-asset" height="305" id="asset_1223223152" ng-src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/blue-waves-set-vector-id1223223152?k=6&m=1223223152&s=612x612&w=0&h=WomMl2jkvfGiOE76cwXq_sRKgSBLmfFHwxrrzWCFrgU=" src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/blue-waves-set-vector-id1223223152?k=6&m=1223223152&s=612x612&w=0&h=WomMl2jkvfGiOE76cwXq_sRKgSBLmfFHwxrrzWCFrgU=" style="text-align: center;" width="668" /></p><p style="text-align: center;">Hurricane - When all hell breaks lose</p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">What do we do when all hell breaks lose? Like a hurricane that comes and destroys everything on its way, hard situations can sometimes come one after the other. Like waves that have reached our necks, just when we think the worse has passed one more thing happens. And we struggle, we struggle and we fight; but at the same time we feel exhausted and we want to give up - we look around and it seems like nobody cares. We feel alone, rejected, abandoned.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"> I know a few people in these kind of situations right now. Actually some of the best people I know, are currently struggling with many many hardships. What can we do? </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Well the best thing we can do is pray. Pray and know that, truly, God holds us in the palm of His hand. And yes it is true that sometimes the more we pray the more things go wrong. But you know what, keep on praying. Our Lord is faithful. You truly can count on Him. If we are patient and we put our trust in Him- eventually things will get better. the key to this is - Eventually :)</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">I tell you something, lets be there for each other! You can send me an email if you ever want me to pray for you, and I promise you I will pray for sure. Sometimes we can feel disconnected from people that are similar to us, but we can change that. We can connect - we can take care of each other! Know that I am here for you and that every time you send me an email or leave a comment!</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"> I will pray for you! 💝</span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://www.amazon.com/Princess-Overalls-littleness-miracles-prayer/dp/0986560103/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394949520&sr=1-1&keywords=Princess+in+overalls</div>Ticaenexiliohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360253617097624017noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334753588853069430.post-46786012472876224922021-06-20T11:27:00.001-07:002022-10-15T07:29:03.324-07:00Being Kind to Beautiful<p><img class="board-asset" id="asset_1150664483" ng-src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/watercolor-tropical-flower-vector-id1150664483?k=6&m=1150664483&s=612x612&w=0&h=kMtxRKArK80dpUR37T5Ci64zsMHleTiXZJ0qPWwOFAU=" src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/watercolor-tropical-flower-vector-id1150664483?k=6&m=1150664483&s=612x612&w=0&h=kMtxRKArK80dpUR37T5Ci64zsMHleTiXZJ0qPWwOFAU=" /></p><p>Sometimes we meet someone whose life seems perfect. They are beautiful. They are loved. They seem to have everything. Everything we don't have. </p><p>It is hard. It is hard to know someone who has everything we ever wanted. A person who seems to have it all. And the worse part is - they don't even seem to understand just how lucky they are. But we do. We realize it, and it stings. Yes, it makes us upset, even angry. But why?</p><p> One word: envy. </p><p>Sometimes we don't grasp just how envious we can become. We are unkind, sometimes even downright mean; and still we justify the way we act, and how we reject others. We justify our lack of kindness. And the worse part is, the more this person we so deeply envy is kind to us, the more our unkindness is made evident, and the more we hate them. </p><p>Sounds familiar? Maybe, the answer is yes. Then you really need to read my post about envy. </p><p>But maybe the answer is no. Maybe you are that person, the one that gets tired of being the object of envy. Tired of jealousy directed at you. Tired of someone that seems determined to hate you no matter how kind you are to them. You love people, but it doesn't seem to matter. Sometimes one or more of those people you so deeply care about, seem determined to shun you. With no real reason, they mistreat you, with no explanation they reject you. </p><p>My advise is: don't fret. If you are not being appreciated, it's not your fault. If others are jealous of you , it's on them. Why long for those who don't give you the value you deserve? You need to be strong. For your own good, be strong. Times change, people change too. Get busy, give some time and most importantly, pray. Whatever you do, don't make too much of it. Because it's not you that is broken, it's them, It's not you that needs to change, it's them. It's not you that is sinning, it's them. If you know someone that is bitter and envious of you, pray for them. </p><p>Some people are incapable of feeling happy for people who shine, but is that a reason to stop shining? If they themselves are doing badly, if their life is miserable then please try to understand them. Pray for them. Pray, because, for those who choose to justify jealousy and envy life does not improve. Life just becomes more miserable with every bad action they take. Every time they gossip, every time they snob you, every time they weave their little schemes and intrigues, every time they lie about you, every single time: they bring more misery unto themselves.</p><p>God always blesses us with at least one person who is special, one who can truly appreciate us. Someone who loves us from the heart. Let that be enough. Because with relationships, truly, it is not quantity but quality that matters. Open your eyes and find the people in your life who truly love you. And be grateful.</p><p> Remember, part of being grateful for something/someone, is to realize that you have enough. Enough love. Enough support. Enough comfort. Enough admiration. Enough encouragement. Don't be greedy, embrace the freedom of understanding that you do in fact have enough. </p><p>God gives us enough, He always gives us more than enough. He who is kindness and love itself, blesses us beyond our understanding, with enough of everything we need, to be happy and holy.</p><p>As for that person/people who does not appreciate you? Maybe they can change one day.</p><p>... but maybe you too could change today!</p><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://www.amazon.com/Princess-Overalls-littleness-miracles-prayer/dp/0986560103/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394949520&sr=1-1&keywords=Princess+in+overalls</div>Ticaenexiliohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360253617097624017noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334753588853069430.post-65777842522021907892021-05-22T16:21:00.001-07:002022-10-15T07:33:13.112-07:00Loves comes walking in<p><img class="board-asset" id="asset_496193467" ng-src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/love-letter-heart-drawing-vector-id496193467?k=6&m=496193467&s=612x612&w=0&h=WwryuUZVkRZtMih-GvSsyfqozTB0d-bkI5UCLfdNhZI=" src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/love-letter-heart-drawing-vector-id496193467?k=6&m=496193467&s=612x612&w=0&h=WwryuUZVkRZtMih-GvSsyfqozTB0d-bkI5UCLfdNhZI=" /></p><p>Just when you thought it was all over, and you decided it was time to move on, he comes back. </p><p>What do you do? </p><p>Well, if you open the door, loves comes walking in. </p><p>Think hard, pray much and then make your decision.

Is it our age? Is it the way we look? Is it our intelligence? Is it perhaps our sense of humour? How are we perceived? </div><div><br /></div><div>Have you ever wondered? Does it really matter? Should you even care? </div><div><br /></div><div>What is a loser? Who decides? Is it the majority? </div><div>What if it is a majority of losers that is deciding? lol</div><div><br /></div><div>We are all insecure, all trying to love and to be loved. Why is it that we give so much importance to what other people think of us? Why is it that people can be so cruel sometimes? </div><div><br /></div><div>If you are lonely, if you have ever felt left out, well then read on. All these questions and more are questions that matter, they matter because they affect our self confidence and can affect our emotions. These are questions that start mattering at the teen years, but honestly they never really stop hunting us. So instead of sticking our head in the ground like an ostrich, lol, lets stop running away from these questions and face them head on.</div><div><br /></div><div>Sometimes people find friends in their teen years that last a life time. Sometimes people find friends in their teen years and then they move on, and lose contact with those people and never see them again. Sometimes you make friends and you think they care about you, and then something happens and you realize that those people that you cared so much about, were not worth your time. </div><div><br /></div><div>Nothing is a guarantee in life, and when are dealing with other humans it's not a sure science. So what should we do? How can we find happiness? Peace? Joy? </div><div><br /></div><div> I think the key to a happy life, is to have total trust in God and confidence in the fact that everything changes. If today things are good , if you have friends - well enjoy! And do not worry about the future. If today you are lonely and feel rejected by others, well have hope and remember that things don't last forever. Situations change, things turn around and before you know it, you are out of the dark.</div><div><br /></div><div>God never gives us more that what we can handle, and if we trust in Him, everything that happens can be for our good. It all can help us grow in holiness and in virtue. Don't give up, keep hoping regardless of how your situation looks like and you will be alright. </div><div><br /></div><div> In this life there are ups and downs. Nothing is written in stone. Everything changes, if you give enough time. Remember you were made perfect, there is only one of you, you are full of gifts and if people can not see that - well that is their loss. If they do not appreciate you, if people don't get you, remember you are valuable and move on. </div><div><br /></div><div>You don't need people that do not understand how precious you are. Who needs that? Get busy, distract yourself and before you know it you will find people that deserve you, and that place where you fit perfectly. </div><div><br /></div><div>The Bible says do not give pearls to pigs or holy things to dogs. Why? Because they will destroy them. If you are hurting or you feel rejected, remember it may not be you that needs to change, it might not be you who is broken, it might be that you simply need to pick better friends. </div><div><br /></div><div>It is better to be alone for a while, than in bad company!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://www.amazon.com/Princess-Overalls-littleness-miracles-prayer/dp/0986560103/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394949520&sr=1-1&keywords=Princess+in+overalls</div>Ticaenexiliohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360253617097624017noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334753588853069430.post-86391583310460541792021-04-22T13:24:00.001-07:002022-10-15T07:30:10.277-07:00Make assumptions?

We think we know others. We think we know how they think, what makes them tick. We make an assumption, then a judgement. Next thing we know, we have labeled a person without ever giving them a chance. I am here to make a proposal, lol. </p><p>What is my proposal? </p><p>Well, my proposal is, that if we choose to make assumptions, lets err on the side of kindness. If you see someone for the first time, if you meet someone new, make a commitment that from now on, you will give them a chance, or two, or three. And how do we go about doing that? Well, just choose to give the benefit of the doubt. So let's try to stop the labels:</p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>He is a loser</li><li>She is too young</li><li>He is conceited</li><li>She is weird</li><li>He is loud</li><li>She is full of herself etc.</li></ul><p></p><p>If we meet a very beautiful girl, lets assume she is not only beautiful - she is also holy and kind.</p><p>If we meet a very ugly person, lets assume they might be ugly - but their soul shines like the sun.</p><p>If we meet someone that seems like a dumb dumb (by the way, lol, that very easily could be me), assume the person is nervous and let them warm up to you - perhaps they will surprise you.</p><p>If we meet someone that is a tad dry, hard to talk to, let's assume they had a rough day and maybe - next time they will dazzle us.</p><p>Some people have a rough time at home, or a rough life. Others might have had bad experiences meeting new people. If we give people a chance, usually we will be pleasantly surprised. In giving someone the benefit of the doubt, perhaps we will be giving ourselves the gift of meeting someone truly extraordinary.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://www.amazon.com/Princess-Overalls-littleness-miracles-prayer/dp/0986560103/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394949520&sr=1-1&keywords=Princess+in+overalls</div>Ticaenexiliohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360253617097624017noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334753588853069430.post-91346696582273145592021-04-10T10:28:00.010-07:002021-05-18T07:13:57.887-07:00Expecting great from little humans<p> <img class="board-asset" height="320" id="asset_1176903871" ng-src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/hand-drawn-seamless-pattern-vector-vector-id1176903871?k=6&m=1176903871&s=612x612&w=0&h=Oln3VfMfZH0Rr82I_IcV1WhszdBlZQGz3zP8lmogkTE=" src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/hand-drawn-seamless-pattern-vector-vector-id1176903871?k=6&m=1176903871&s=612x612&w=0&h=Oln3VfMfZH0Rr82I_IcV1WhszdBlZQGz3zP8lmogkTE=" width="320" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Can we expect "great" from a small kid? Great character, great behaviour, great love? Should we teach what is right and what is wrong from a young age? </p><p>Oh heavens yes! </p><p>Do me a favour if you have a small sibling, don't enable them when they act badly. They are capable of understanding, and they are capable of great things. Why would we not help them be great? </p><p>Truth be told, I have seen plenty a kid maybe between 4-9 years old that are spoiled rotten by parents that seem to be under the impression, that these children are incapable of being: kind, respectful, loving etc. There parents allow these "little terrors" to rule their house. These "little ones" run around terrorizing older siblings and friends of the family. They are rude, harsh, aggressive and extremely disrespectful and annoying to all who are around them. Do you know someone like this? Maybe even in your own house?</p><p>God made us with an incredible capacity to love. Our spirits are made for greatness. When parents and siblings don't correct "the little ones" in a family , they are robbing them from something precious; the ability to truly shine! They are also smashing any opportunity to becoming well adjusted, well functioning humans. What do you think , do you think that it is easier to learn obedience, respect and kindness from the time you are a little baby....or do you think that it will be easier to learn after years of getting away with a reign of terror? Kind and loving do not happen by magic!</p><p>Honestly bad habits become part of who we are. If a person acts the same terrible way over a period of time - it will become a bad habit. Act that same terrible way over a prolonged period of time and it will become part of who you are. </p><p>So if you have a small sibling at home that is out of control, well first of all pray about it. Then address it with your mom and dad. If all else fails, at least you can try to teach what is good and right to them. Believe me you will be doing a labor of love. True love teaches what is true and right and expects great things from people. We need to love one another. We need to believe that we can be great. We need to teach holiness and hope for holiness, so that holiness can shine in a soul. </p><p>If you know a small person who:</p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Disrespects those older than them</li><li>Are cruel and unkind with their siblings and piers</li><li>Are harsh and threatening towards people</li><li>Manipulate their parents</li><li>Want to act as if they are way older than they truly are, etc</li></ul><div>If you know kids like these, speak up. Don't tolerate bad behaviour, you will be doing them a service. Otherwise these "little tyrants" will grow up to be monsters....and it might be to late to fix things at this point. </div><div><br /></div><div>Don't be part of the problem....be bold, pray and act. All things are possible for those who love God! Believe and things will change.</div><p></p><p><br /></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://www.amazon.com/Princess-Overalls-littleness-miracles-prayer/dp/0986560103/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394949520&sr=1-1&keywords=Princess+in+overalls</div>Ticaenexiliohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360253617097624017noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334753588853069430.post-10502537292622172902021-01-30T10:01:00.008-08:002021-01-30T10:12:38.413-08:00Like someone? Flirt with a purpose<p><br /></p><p><img class="board-asset" id="asset_1092242614" ng-src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/valentines-day-heart-shapes-vector-id1092242614?k=6&m=1092242614&s=612x612&w=0&h=FICm1NtKMpGZA3HIWIfvIG9skBeBqsNTNqy4lGLIdh4=" src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/valentines-day-heart-shapes-vector-id1092242614?k=6&m=1092242614&s=612x612&w=0&h=FICm1NtKMpGZA3HIWIfvIG9skBeBqsNTNqy4lGLIdh4=" /></p><p><br /></p><p>In this rather messy world every now and then we meet someone special who grabs our interest. We befriend them and we invest time and effort in the relationship. As the relationship progresses we might find ourselves having feelings for "our friend". We might try to ignore it, but feelings have a way of coming out. And before we know it we are flirting. </p><p>We give some subtle compliments, we let the person know they are somewhat special to us, we try to see them more often. We don't call this liking. We don't even allow ourselves to recognize it as liking in our brain, and we suppress what our heart already knows. We like someone, but we are terrified to acknowledge our feelings. </p><p>Why do we do this? Sometimes we want to let somebody know we like them, but we simply lack nerve. Afraid? You might ask. Afraid of what? Well, afraid of: of rejection, of your friends finding out and making fun of you, afraid of the next step, afraid of your parents reaction to your first crush and the list goes on. Yup, sometimes we are just cowards. </p><p>Sometimes we lack clarity, true, and we really don't know what is the next step. But sometimes, the problem is worse, let's be honest sometimes we don't want clarity. Why? Because with clarity comes decision making, and decision making is hard business. But we can't forget the other person is a real human being. Yes, shocking huh? A real human with feelings, and they deserve honesty and clarity. You deserve to be honest and clear both to the other person and to yourself. Just because we refuse to acknowledge we are flirting, and we call it something else, it does not mean we are being truthful. We can't have our own definitions for words. If you call someone a pet name, if you ask them to do something special, if you ask them if they like you etc - newsflash you are flirting. Just because we refuse to recognize our feelings it does not mean they are not there.</p><p>So what can we do? </p><p>Well, stringing people along is not fair, and should never be one of our options. First people have feelings, it's unfair and just plain wrong to play with their feelings. And second, because it eventually can all blow up on our faces. We can end up losing that person that was most important to us and that cared most for us. We all have feelings, we can't be so self involved that we ignore the fact that we might be hurting someone that does not deserve it. </p><p>If we do nothing at all we might miss out on the best thing we had going for us. Often the best things in life are for those who have courage, for humans who are ready to face their fears and insecurities, and take that next step. </p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Guys you need to ask girls on dates! That makes your intentions clear to the girl and yes to your own brain! </li><li> Girls don't flirt just to have one more guy in the list of people who like you, that is just vain and cruel. </li><li>If you are not interested in dating for whatever reason, well say it from the get-go.</li><li>If you have not made up your mind and like more than one human, well then don't act like you are smitten by someone and make them believe that you are into them. </li></ul><p></p><p>The problem is not to not be sure, no, that is not the problem people! The problem is, to not be sure, but act as if you are sure. Look if you are looking for someone special don't play with people's feelings. People don't like being played with and they will erase you. One day you might just realize that you lost the best thing you had going for you!</p><p>Flirt but flirt with a purpose. </p><p>Date but date with a purpose. </p><p>Fall in love but don't fall in love by accident. </p><p>You deserve better and so does she/he!</p><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://www.amazon.com/Princess-Overalls-littleness-miracles-prayer/dp/0986560103/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394949520&sr=1-1&keywords=Princess+in+overalls</div>Ticaenexiliohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360253617097624017noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334753588853069430.post-16707419756827004972021-01-18T09:32:00.010-08:002021-05-17T10:02:42.642-07:00Am I a crush or a friend?<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><img class="board-asset" height="400" id="asset_1025515460" ng-src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/emojis-hand-drawn-vector-id1025515460?k=6&m=1025515460&s=612x612&w=0&h=_JfJm8crXEd9TEmVqmvsXbiQ-DN1yw-jrpdSt73V_2I=" src="https://media.istockphoto.com/vectors/emojis-hand-drawn-vector-id1025515460?k=6&m=1025515460&s=612x612&w=0&h=_JfJm8crXEd9TEmVqmvsXbiQ-DN1yw-jrpdSt73V_2I=" style="text-align: left;" width="389" /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on">Clarity Please </div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Navigating the waters of liking someone is not easy in the year 2021, and it won't get any easier in the future.

You know just yesterday I heard about a girl whose parents will not let her date until she is 23. She is currently 16. This girl is not even allowed to like someone. Now while I understand that her parents love her and only want what is best for her; and while the Bible does call for children to respect their parents, well the Bible also calls for parents to not exasperate their children. It also says God never gives us burdens heavier than we can carry, and it calls us to be like Him. So parents should not give their kids rules to hard to follow, or to unreasonable to bear.</p><p>Look if you are a teen or a parent reading this, just stay with me. I am going to make a case for this poor teen. We all want someone special, and we all want to love and to be loved. This poor girl's parents must have forgotten what it was like when they were young. I remember being only six, yes people 6 years old and feeling in love with a fellow kindergartener called Luis Ricardo. We used to hold hands and dream with getting married one day. Strange story yes, nevertheless true. Now did I end up marrying Luis Ricardo, nope, my dad got a job in a different country and we ended up moving there. My love story with Luis Ricardo ended at the airport when he came to say goodbye with a sweet little teddy bear for me. </p><p>What is my point? Is my point that six year olds should date? Nope not at all, if that is what you think you missed the point completely and you need to read more carefully lol. My point is that any of us at any given time, are capable of having feelings for a special someone. We are not robots that can be programmed, and we are not in control of when or for who we get romantic feelings for. Parents are being unreasonable if they think they can try to regulate when their kids can start having romantic feelings for someone. </p><p>I remember also in primary school, and in primary school plenty a kid had crushes and plenty a kid had girlfriends/boyfriends. Primary School, that was like over 30 years ago for me gulp, but it gives you a good point of reference of how things truly have not changed all that much. Humans are humans and will always be humans. Wow that was deep lol. No but for real, no matter the year, no matter the technology the human heart always remains the same. What we choose to do with the feelings we get might have changed a lot, but that is a topic for a different post, but the feelings themselves have always been the same, from the beginning of time. </p><p>In my opinion parents should try their best to be reasonable, and at least meet their kids half way. Parents need to make an effort to remember how things were when they were young. Trying to make unreasonable demands, only makes kids hide things from their parents. Why? Because we can't help how we feel, and we will be afraid to share what is in our mind and heart when we know our feelings are being judged harshly. </p><p>So if your parents have unreasonable rules, try to talk to them. If that does not work, try to talk to someone in the family or in your group of friends you trust, that can talk to them. If that does not work, well pray. God always helps, and if you are patient...and you are respectful, eventually things will get better.</p><p>Having feelings is normal. Acting on those feelings is a whole other thing. Take your time. Make God your priority. Pray and all will fall into place! </p><p>Life is good, God is love and you are extraordinary! Don't ever forget that! </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><script data-ad-client="ca-pub-6018061501249004" async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://www.amazon.com/Princess-Overalls-littleness-miracles-prayer/dp/0986560103/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394949520&sr=1-1&keywords=Princess+in+overalls</div>Ticaenexiliohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360253617097624017noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334753588853069430.post-20334044334946371092020-05-03T07:56:00.001-07:002020-05-03T07:56:52.435-07:00What good is it to me...?<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/OSqr9iCW7rM" width="480"></iframe><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://www.amazon.com/Princess-Overalls-littleness-miracles-prayer/dp/0986560103/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394949520&sr=1-1&keywords=Princess+in+overalls</div>Ticaenexiliohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360253617097624017noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334753588853069430.post-87088412831315169762020-03-29T16:17:00.001-07:002020-03-29T16:18:53.830-07:00Princess in Overalls<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<br />
Do I post the whole book?<br />
<br />
Hi!<br />
<br />
I want to know if you would like me to post my whole book again. I used to have it in my blog but then figured it was too long, and I decided to make things easier and shorter for you. But now with all of us being stuck at home with nothing to do; I though it might be a good idea for me to put the story back up. <br />
<br />
Send me your thoughts on that. <br />
<br />
Use my email address (light_in_u@yahoo.com) or the comment section to let me know what you think!<br />
<br />
Stay holy, stay safe!<br />
<br />
<br />
Carolina<br />

<br />
We all talk about love, and most of us are serious when we say the world needs more love! But, do we love as we should? Do we take responsibility for our part? Are we failing miserably? Or are we striving to love more, to love better? Well one way to find out, is by having a little time at the end of the day or the week to reflect on how we are doing. Ask ourselves some tough questions....are you up for it? <br />
<br />
Here is a great list of questions that will help us see how we are doing when it comes to loving others....to truly loving others. I advise you to take paper and pen and take some notes. Take this seriously and you will learn a lot about yourself, you will also be able to make some real changes that can move you in the right direction....to truly love! I will have these divided into four or five parts...keep your eyes open! I advise you to not rush through these, read a question and take time to truly ponder it....only then move to the next one. Get a journal or a pad of paper and take some notes. Come on get excited and take this seriously, the world needs more love and it starts with us! This is part 1 !<br />

<strong>Five Pillars of the Home School Mom</strong> – I think these are the non-negotiable must haves for a homeschooling mom to be successful.</div>

<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>Prayer</strong>– Without a relationship with God and His grace in our lives there is no success. It’s all about making time for God not finding time!</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>Encouragement</strong> – Why we need each other, it’s all about giving and receiving. The gift of each other and the power of friendship.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>Time Alone</strong> – Have some fun recharge your batteries, it’s all about taking a break doing something completely unrelated – something that renews your energy!</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>Health </strong>– Diet and exercise can change everything! For me it was Trim and Healthy Mama/ skiing and scuba diving! How eating right and the right physical activity can change your life!</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong>Forgiveness</strong> – Ourselves, our husbands, the kids (our own and others’), and each other! God makes every day a new beginning!</li>

<br />
Today, more than ever people feel empty and alone. Why? How can this be? We are all connected by social media, then, why are we still unsatisfied? Many relationships are superficial and empty, and everybody is just too busy. So many of us are self involved and selfish, and at the end of the day there is nothing but emptiness. Do you feel that way?<br />
<div>
<br />
<br />
There is a better way to live. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We need to pray, so that God will teach us to hunger and thirst for what truly matters. To be made eager, on fire, and aching for that which will bring us peace and heal our hearts. Our hunger can be satisfied; but we need to be willing to give ourselves completely, and to trust. In our quest for righteousness and for truth, only God can satisfy us. We can not grow tired of seeking what is "good and right", but we need to remember that it needs to be "good and right " by God’s standards. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In choosing a different path, in choosing to live a different kind of life, we walk away from what the world claims is right,. If we seek we will find. And once we find we can never look back. When we decide to no longer do our own will, when we decide to open our heats to God, our loving Father, He comes and he makes us brand new. We find our path. We find healing. We find what is true and right. Not what today's world excuses as right, but true righteousness. And our life is made brand new.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As we are transformed by God's love and we start walking down a different path, sometimes we will make people uncomfortable, sometimes we will not be so popular. This is because what it is to be like Christ, stands in stark contrast of those who are modelling other things. Some people might criticize us and say that we are too scrupulous, obsessed about the little things – but we need to know why we do things and walk in confidence.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Scrupulosity is when we do something for the sake of itself, or for our own ego. Righteousness, on the other hand, is for the sake of loving God. So the key is to be honest and know why we do things. When we know in our hearts that we do things for the love of God; it is then that we can be brave and firm in our way of being, not wavering. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It is a grace to speak freely in defence of truth, and in defence of what is right. It is a grace to be ready to fight for the good of others no matter who they are, or where they are. If everything we do, we do out of love of God then we will have peace. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A peace that surpasses all understanding, because God will be guarding our hearts and minds. And then, what other people think will become inconsequential. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The gift of Peace then - will be the natural result of the way we live. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,</div>

But for now I just want to write a small paragraph. Just when the situation seemed hopeless, God inspired amazing people to turn it around. He used five teens, from which at least three are loving faithful Christians, and two adults to completely change the ending to this story. These five teens are an inspiration, their families chose homeschooling for them - and clearly it has paid off. The five of them were instruments in God's hands that amazing day!</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<br />
God tenderly directed every person to help. He also gave amazing fortitude to the father who held on to his child for so long. Although it was terrifying for me, and at times I felt helpless, I prayed. In my heart I knew I needed to document this amazing situation, people needed to see. And the response has been amazing, people are being inspired and touched by God all over the world because of this video. I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to "be God's hands and eyes" on this day. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit!<br />
<br />
Feel free to ask me any questions you might have...<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The Bible tells us:<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> “</b>Faith is the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen.”(Hebrews 11:1) What do we hope for? We hope for God’s promises to become a reality in our lives. Faith believes these promises will be fulfilled. Faith is experiencing God’s love, even though we might not see Him with our eyes. Faith is the glasses, placed on the eyes of our heart, through which we see God. Faith is a gift.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">In the Bible, God also tells us: “The victory that conquers the world is our faith.”</span></i><i style="text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> (1 John 5:4) This is a huge statement to meditate on, because faith is something we should never take for granted.</span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Is our faith real, or is it a counterfeit? Does it arise out of the passing emotion of the moment, or is it everlasting? Is it there to stay, or will it be stolen by the enemy when trials, persecution or temptations come? In my opinion, a great benefit comes from second-guessing ourselves and not being too proud about the greatness of our faith. Why? We can become too excited and too overconfident, and then we will be in danger because this is when the enemy will attack us. Scripture says “Be sober and vigilant.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Your opponent the devil is prowling around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Resist him steadfast in faith…”(1 Peter 5:8-9) Faith is a shield, and so we must always have our shield up and ready<span style="font-family: "symbol";"> </span></span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">but if we are overconfident, we might not realize our shield is not as strong as it needs to be! We do not want to get too comfortable and let down our guard. Hence we must give our hearts and elevate our minds to God each morning, surrendering our will and placing our trust in Him, humbly asking Him to strengthen our faith. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">How can we believe in someone we do not see? God is so good and loving to His children that He has revealed Himself to us. All we need to do is to want to get to know Him. It is difficult to believe in Someone we do not personally know, to believe in that Person’s goodness, love, mercy and power. If we say we have faith in God, but we have not taken the time to get to know Him, this could mislead us<span style="font-family: "symbol";"> </span></span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">we might end up thinking it is enough to just say we have faith.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt;">

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Saying we have faith is not enough. It does not necessarily mean we have faith in our hearts. We might want to have faith, might even try to have faith, but without getting to know God, our efforts are in vain. Knowing requires learning. I know math only after I learn math. Likewise, I know my classmates only after I take time to learn about who they are and what is going on in their lives. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

And knowing God will lead us to loving God, and loving God will lead us to having great faith and trust in Him. Why? Because, as we fall in love with Him, we will naturally desire to do His will. As we start to do His will, our life will be turned around, and His graces will fully flow into our heart. Faith, God’s greatest gift to us, will then become firmly established in us, and we will be able to see the difference that it makes to live our lives in the presence of God.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

As we come to understand the greatness of His love for us and see how He loved us first, we will desperately try to love Him back, and then we will quickly come to the realization that to love Him we need to align ourselves with His will. This takes work. We cannot just lean back and say, “I believe in God, and this is enough for me.” No way! We need to put time into our relationship with Him. Only then will we come to experience the fullness of His promises. Only then will we come to enjoy the fruits of His Spirit living in us. Only then will we come to live under the shadow of His wings.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

We cannot just try to do it our way! He is all knowing, and we are not, so we need to listen to Him and do what He tells us! Through prayer, meditation and Bible reading, we come to understand what He wants from us. If we are humble and we recognize that there is much for us to learn and much for us to change, we will allow His loving hands to mold us and make us brand new. Then we will start experiencing a brand new life.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>We must make a commitment to learn His ways, doing what He tells us, obeying His loving words of advice for us. Like the psalmist, we need to pray: “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light for my path. I make a solemn vow to keep your just edicts…Your decrees are my heritage forever; they are the joy of my heart. My heart is set on fulfilling your laws; they are my reward forever.” (Psalm 119:105-106,111-112) This psalm reflects a true understanding of the fact that God loves us with an everlasting perfect love. All He wants is for us is to be safe under the shadow of His protection. His desire for us is for us to experience the joy that it is to have His love living inside our hearts. His desire for us is for us to come to everlasting life.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>We must take to heart words of advice that have been said by Christians before us. Great saints give great advice. I once read that “In the deepest solitude, God speaks to our hearts.” Maybe that is why sometimes He allows us to become a bit lonely, so that we can let go of all that is preventing us from listening to Him. Only then, when we are ready to listen, can He lovingly speak to our hearts and show us the way to be followed. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Faith makes us act. If faith does not make us act, then we have fooled ourselves, and perhaps we have no faith at all. As it says in the book of James, faith without actions is dead. (James 2:17) And faith that is dead is no faith at all. True faith saves us because it leads us to go to Him and to follow Him with our hearts and with our actions. Have we come to know God yet? What are we waiting for?!<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">One day we are here, the next day who knows? Everything changes. Everything can always get better if we look forward to tomorrow. All we know for sure is that we know nothing about what is ahead for us; therefore, we need to trust that every change that happens in our life will be for the best. Every day is an opportunity to change our lives, every second an opportunity to leave our mistakes, our sorrows and our fears behind. It is all up to us. We can choose to look forward to better times, or we can choose to be swallowed up by overwhelming circumstances. Let’s choose to have faith and to hold on through shaky times.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

Tomorrow we might be dead </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">or then again maybe not. Think about job interviewers’ favorite questions: “Where do you see yourself in five years? Where do you see yourself in ten years?” The fact of the matter is that we have no idea where we will be tomorrow, let alone five years from now. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

We need to live every moment fully and give our hearts completely. And when the time to say goodbye comes, we must be strong and know that we will have other chances to love and be loved. And we must keep in mind that every situation can teach us many things if we take the time to learn. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
