Encouraging words

Matthew 5:

1 Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down.   His disciples came to him, 

2 and he began to teach them. He said:

3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11         “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 

12          Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

On the way home from a conference, Don Piper’s car was crushed by a semi-truck that crossed into his lane. Medical personnel said he died instantly. While his body lay lifeless inside the ruins of his car, Piper experienced the glories of heaven, awed by its beauty and music. 90 minutes after the wreck, while a minister prayed for him, Piper miraculously returned to life on earth with only the memory of inexpressible heavenly bliss. Then his grueling recovery began.

Comfort for God’s People

Isaiah 40 

1. Comfort, comfort my people, says your God.

2. Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and proclaim to her that her hard service has been completed, that her sin has been paid for, that she has received from the Lord’s hand double for all her sins.

3. A voice of one calling: “In the wilderness prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for our God.

4. Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low; the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain.

5. And the glory of the Lord will be revealed, and all people will see it together. For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”

6. A voice says, “Cry out.” And I said, “What shall I cry?” “All people are like grass, and all their faithfulness is like the flowers of the field.

7. The grass withers and the flowers fall, because the breath of the Lord blows on them. Surely the people are grass.

8. The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.”

9. You who bring good news to Zion, go up on a high mountain. You who bring good news to Jerusalem, lift up your voice with a shout, lift it up, do not be afraid; say to the towns of Judah, “Here is your God!”

10. See, the Sovereign Lord comes with power, and he rules with a mighty arm. See, his reward is with him, and his recompense accompanies him.

11. He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young.

12. Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, or with the breadth of his hand marked off the heavens? Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket, or weighed the mountains on the scales and the hills in a balance?

13. Who can fathom the Spirit of the Lord, or instruct the Lord as his counselor?

14. Whom did the Lord consult to enlighten him, and who taught him the right way? Who was it that taught him knowledge, or showed him the path of understanding?

15. Surely the nations are like a drop in a bucket; they are regarded as dust on the scales; he weighs the islands as though they were fine dust.

16. Lebanon is not sufficient for altar fires, nor its animals enough for burnt offerings.

17. Before him all the nations are as nothing; they are regarded by him as worthless and less than nothing.

18. With whom, then, will you compare God? To what image will you liken him?

19. As for an idol, a metalworker casts it, and a goldsmith overlays it with gold and fashions silver chains for it.

20. A person too poor to present such an offering selects wood that will not rot; they look for a skilled worker to set up an idol that will not topple.

21. Do you not know? Have you not heard? Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood since the earth was founded?

22. He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like a tent to live in.

23. He brings princes to naught and reduces the rulers of this world to nothing.

24. No sooner are they planted,  no sooner are they sown, no sooner do they take root in the ground, than he blows on them and they wither, and a whirlwind sweeps them away like chaff.

25.“ To whom will you compare me? Or who is my equal?” says the Holy One.

26. Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.

27. Why do you complain, Jacob? Why do you say, Israel, “My way is hidden from the Lord; my cause is disregarded by my God”?

28. Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.

29. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.

30. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;

31. but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

Trust in God's promises and be patient thats when the impossible becomes possible!!

Love one another..

Taking time to understand others.

 Most of the time we find ourselves in a difficult situation we just see our side of the story! We don't think of what the other person involved feels like. According to the bible we should love others just as we love ourselves. The truth is we have expectations of how we want to be treated and how others should address to us. This causes us to feel unaccepted maybe or left out, this is not how we should feel though. We as Christians or people that follow Jesus should feel accepted by Him, loved by Him, strengthened by Him. There is no one person in the world that can understand you better then He can! Think about it...He knows your deepest thoughts, feelings and frustrations. Therefore even if you are in a position where you are right and the other is wrong it's the way we approach this problem that will get us the win in the long run. I know it's not easy to give up where you know you are right but over time this will become easier and easier. It's us that choose to be happy..i know , i know .. it might seem crazy but as we choose to let go of the things that upset us and see the world in a different perspective we can focus our time on getting to understand the other persons needs. We don't live on this earth to make just ourselves happy but to make the one's around us smile. I have learned over the past few weeks that letting go of unnecessary expectations brought me closer to my loved ones and the people around me. Being thankful for the people around us and appreciating them for who they are. Not for the sin or the things they wronged you with but for the soul that is inside each and every one of us. Understanding someone in their darkest times and lifting them with verses from the bible can really change their lives. Never lose hope in the people around you because God has a perfect timing. See the bigger picture.

My Experience since i took a break from the blog

LIFE:

Life is full of surprises, you have to learn how things work in order to gain happiness, peace, joy. All of these can disappear in a moment.One moment you can be happy and the next see everything disappear before your eyes. I know for sure. Life isn't what we expect or what we want it to be. We have to open our eyes and hearts to see the bigger picture. God has a plan with each and every one of us. Thats why sometimes our plans and thoughts don't succeed. In that moment where everything crumbles in our lives and we see no way out God steps in. God doesn't intervene where he knows you can do it. He gave you just enough so you can carry. But when the wait of the world is beating you down and you see no way out, He is there!! Present !! He will make miracles with you..Yes , You. Every person is a piece of this amazing puzzle and everything that happens in your life happens for a reason. All the hurt you went through or are going through is to make you fit in that little place where your meant to be!

“The Value of Sun shine is just because of the existence of Darkness"-Samar                                                                   Sudha”

So going back to gaining that Happiness, peace, joy:

-Things that you may think will bring you those things:

• Money..or having a good job, being successful in your career.
• Husband, boyfriend, family, friends.
• Having a car, a house, expensive clothes, going on trips, traveling, having hobbies.

You see all of these things they bring you happiness for the moment. If you don't have them, you loose your happiness. Is that what happiness is meant to be? Does it mean that if you are poor and have no family you can't detain happiness? NO! Thats not what happiness is about.

-Things that actually bring you happiness:

• Talking to a person in need of help, guidance, encouragement.
• Taking the time to listen to others problems.. in a word CARING!
• Reading the Bible and discovering the beauty behind it.
• Happiness is really doing what God put you on the earth to do.

These things might seem very simple to do.. But when you are in a world where everything that God created is being destroyed, It's more of a challenge. Maybe you care about people that don't even know what caring is and therefore you get hurt, maybe they know what it is but choose to live in denial. But by continuing this you show the strength that God put in you.

Let yourself be used by God! You will feel happy with peace and joy in your heart when you know that God worked though you to strengthen someone else. Use the gift God gave you. It it is a gift of prayer, go pray for all the people you know and you will see God working in ways you can't even imagine. If u have a gift of listening and encouraging, open yourself to all those you see need your help. God speaks through people.He works through people. He does miracles through people. Why not be that person!

When GOD is all you have, you will see that GOD is all you need!
