Thankful for..

What are you thankful about? Did you know how many things can a 'being thankful' thought can do? Because I like experimenting with this, i will start sharing with you the reasons I'm thankful for.
So here are the reasons today I am thankful for:
- my family
- the air I breathe
- the fact that I can walk through the park and admire and enjoy God's creation on my way to work
- the snow :)


How about you? What are your reasons to be thankful today?

'..Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, 'Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him''

'Now there was a man in Jerusalem called Simeon, who was righteous and devout. He was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not die before he had seen the Lord's Christ. Moved by the Spirit, he went into the temple courts. When the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what the custom of the Law required, Simeon took him in his arms and praised God saying:
'Sovereign Lord, as you have promised,
you now dismiss your servant in peace.
For my eyes have seen your salvation, 
which you have prepared in sight of all people,
a light for revelation to the Gentiles
and for glory to your people Israel.''





20. Sacrifice of doves by Joseph and Mary, Holy Spirit like a dove at his baptism later in life (two doves or feathers)

'When the time of their purification according to the Law of Moses had been completed, Joseph and Mary took Jesus to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord (as it is written in the Law of the Lord, 'Every firstborn male is to be consecrated to the Lord'), and to offer a sacrifice in Keeping with what is said in the Law of the Lord: 'a pair of doves or two young pigeons.''
Luke 3.21-22
'When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: 'You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.''





19. The name Jesus (is the Greek form of Joshua, which means 'The Lors Saves')
Luke 2.21
'On the eight day, when it was time to circumcise him, he was named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he had been conceived.'





18. The emotions of Mary as Jesus's earthly mother (heart)
Luke 2.19-20, 33.35
'But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.'
'..The child's father and mother marveled at what was said about Jesus. Then Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, his mother: 'This child is destined to cause the falling and rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be spoken against, so that the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed. And a sword will pierce your own soul too.''





17.  Kneeling on the ground - our right response to Jesus as God
Psalm 95.6
'Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the Lord our Maker;
for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,
the flock under his care.'

me

He has performed mighty deeds with his arm;
he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts.
He has brought down rulers from their thrones

He has filled the hungry with good things
but has sent the rich away empty.
He has helped his servant Israel,
remembering to be merciful

even as he said to our fathers.''

fum..si nisip

si uite'asa am fost si la mare. cu masina, cu trenul si cu minunatele si suprasolicitatele picioare :) dar, minunat a fost, minunat este si minunat va ramane. intre timp, corin se bucura de privelisti minunate in tabara, la munte. cum e greu de gasit pentru ca nu are semnal si probabil mai usor ne'am intelege prin fum, ma gandeam ca nisipul va fi la fel de usor ca si fumul si va ajunge la el cat mai curand: COME HOME SOON! 

well..tot eu

1 year

la multi ani! la multi ani in Domnul. asta e perioada. a trecut deja 1 an! wow.. ce repede. a trecut un an de ada&corin. in care amandoi au crescut cat altii in 7. in care amandoi au vazut multe minuni. in care amandoi s'au apropiat mai mult de Tati si au invatat mai multe despre El si planul desavarsit al Lui. in care au luptat si au biruit. in care au avut suisuri si coborasuri dar in care au invatat sa zambeasca. in care au facut planuri si au schimbat idei. in care au petrecut zile friguroase cu orez mancat cu bucurie in statia de metrou sau calduroase si pline de inghetata. in care au invatat mult fiecare despre celalalt. in care fiecare a invatat sa taca sau sa vorbeasca. in care continua sa invete despre celalalt. in care au invatat sa se roage. in care s'au bucurat. in care au trecut prin multe prapastii si nori, dar Tatal cel din ceruri a vegheat si vegheaza in continuare asupra lor. in care muntii au sarit in apa si au zburat impreuna cu vulturii. in care au decis sa continue sa il slaveasca pe Tati prin tot ceea ce fac. in care sunt cei mai binecuvantati! amen!

July 05, 2012

fara cascadorii


Astazi am citit un pasaj din Luca 21, versetele de la 13 la 19: 'Aceste lucruri vi se vor intampla ca sa fiti marturie. Tineti bine minte sa nu va ganditi mai dinainte ce veti raspunde; caci va voi da o gura si o intelepciune careia nu-i vor putea raspunde, nici sta impotriva toti potrivnicii vostri. Veti fi dati în mainile lor pana si de parintii, fratii, rudele şi prietenii vostri; si vor omori pe multi dintre voi. Veti fi urati de toti din pricina Numelui Meu. Dar niciun par din cap nu vi se va pierde. Prin rabdarea voastra, va veti castiga sufletele voastre.' Si apoi mi'a venit in minte versetul din Proverbe 18.21 'Moartea si viata sunt in puterea limbii' si la cat de adevarat este. De multe ori ma gandesc de multe ori inainte de a merge sau a face un lucru nou cu care nu sunt familiarizata, mai ales daca lucrul ala implica a deschide gura si a vorbi. Dar cum Tati face lucrurile minunate intr'un fel si mai minunat, astazi am invatat (din nou) ca nu trebuie sa imi mai fie frica de necunoscuturile de care mi se intampla des sa fug si ca El e in control inclusiv cu gura mea si nu vrea sa mai fiu un cascador care merge pe sarma atunci cand sunt in locuri noi si necunoscute! Stiu ca pot pentru ca El mi'a dat Puterea sa reusesc! Deci.. si tu poti :D


Live courageously and bless others!
love,
me
