So Fast!

Two months ago it was January. Fireworks coming out of the sky, some are  red, some are green, most of them are blue. It was a fun filled night. Until a sort of 'party crusher' came, and that fun filled start of the year party was over. God will take vengeance of that party crusher. You know what they say, Let go and Let God!

A month ago, everyone was excited to buy overpriced roses, to make cards for their parents, fiances, loved ones. I didn't make any for my parents though; but my cousin's friend gave me one! Anyways that love day wasn't that special for me, I mean, every day should be love day. Right?

February 29, my Facebook's wall and my Twitter's timeline was flooded with unexpected greetings! In my mind I was thinking, "What's so special with this day of leaping?" *Laughs*

Am I sounding like a villain? I'm opposing every occasion I discuss!

Anyways, I'm really grateful that God has given us another year to enjoy! Although  challenges are always there, "Keep Calm And Pray!"

It's so nice to just stop and rethink the good moments that has happened to you and recall all of the problems and worries you have overcome...

Have a happy month!

I'll be posting part 3 of my 5 part series about friends!

Friends part 2: Letting Them Shine!

After David had finished talking with Saul, Jonathan became one in spirit with David, and he loved him as himself. From that day Saul kept David with him and did not let him return home to his family. 3 And Jonathan made a covenant with David because he loved him as himself. 4 Jonathan took off the robe he was wearing and gave it to David, along with his tunic, and even his sword, his bow and his belt. 

(1 Samuel 18:1-4)

Jonathan and David came from two different worlds. 

Jonathan was a prince, and could have anything and everything he wanted.

While David, used to sleeping outside their house, watching the stars, because he had a flock to watch.

Jonathan loved David so much. Giving his sword means losing his protection, but Jonathan still gave his sword to David. (Shown in the verse 4)

David was 'God Chosen' King. Although Jonathan was the king's son, Jonathan still let David outshine him and let David rule.

Do you have a friend that is more popular than you? What will you do?

Will you strive harder to get more attention than your friend does? Will you envy your friend or leave your him/her and find another?

A true friend will help his/her friend to rise and will be his/her number one supporter!

I found these two wonderful quotes about letting your friends shine!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"A true friend seeks to give rather to take."-The Experience Book

"A friend finds joy in the success of his friends."-The Experience Book

Friends part 1: Be Merciful

"Do you know that feeling when you've hurt your friends and you think they will never forgive you?"

But there are times when they forgive you, right?

It's so thrilling to be given another chance!

Sometimes, in our part, it's so hard for us to forgive our friends,

but you must remember this, 

"You'll receive the same measure of mercy you give to your friends."

(Based on Matthew 7:1-2)

"It's always nice to forgive your friends no matter how big or hurting their sin was!"

Do Popular Things & Worldly Things Matter?

This past few weeks, a message struck me.

 The message was,

"If all of your family, friends and community, turn against God, will you go with them (because everybody's doing it), or stick to what you know is just, right and true?"

I really prayed hard, because I might go with what's popular and worldly.

 (But I know it shouldn't be that way.)

Thank God for making me realize that everything in this world doesn't last, and other's opinion doesn't matter. 


Our God's command, is what we should listen to and follow wholeheartedly!


He is all we need!


Let us not end up like "The Rich Young Ruler"

"The message below is the rich man's story."

(Luke 18:18-29)

Jesus looked at him and said, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God! 25 Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

 26 Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?”

 27 Jesus replied, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.”

 28 Peter said to him, “We have left all we had to follow you!”

   29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus said to them, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or sisters or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God.

Question:

Are there things you find hard to let go?
Tell me yours and I'll tell mine!

Salt Shouldn't Lose Its Flavor.

In the time of Jesus, salt was very important for several reasons. 

First, it kept food from rotting. Meat, preserved with salt, would stay more fresh than without. 

Second; as to date, salt is used to bring flavor in our food. 

Lastly; salt was used for healing, applying salt to a wound would help it heal faster...

Jesus compared us to salt... 

We, believers, help preserve people from sin and destruction. Example, you have a friend, and your friend is tempted to sin but you urge your friend not to, with God's Word.

 We, believers, also bring flavor to life, by bringing joy and happiness in everything we do! 

Lastly; 

we are God's instrument of bringing healing to people.

 When those who are hurting come to us, 

we are committed to share God's love to them. 

In doing so, 

we help people heal their emotional and spiritual wounds.
