Be worried or not be worried // se preocupar ou não se preocupar

Preocupação não vai impedir as coisas ruins de aconetcerem, ela só vai impedir você de aproveitar as boas coisas.


For two days now I’m having this pain in my neck, no really able of sitting or standing for long, or looking up is not an easy job neither is to complain about it.  It has been a while since the Fibromyalgia had given me a break; I was content, but when the worries come so does the pain.

It’s hard not to worry about anything, or even control the urge of worrying. Sometimes it is like an addiction, the worry, you know. You feel like you have to because if you don’t, you might feel guilty or irresponsible. But Jesus said that you and I cannot add an hour in our lifespan with worry. So why bother? Do you solve anything by worrying this much? I don’t think so.

However, sometimes it is inevitable. Like, someone is about to receive the news that will change his life forever, what do you think? He will worry, I will worry, anybody would worry. We get anxious. Why do we feel this way? Because if we don’t, people might get the wrong impression, right? Like you are insensitive, have a hard and cold heart.

I understand. We don’t notice that. It is like in our nature to worry. Because we care. We care for our friends, we care for our family members, we care, so we worry. It is ok, since this worry doesn’t make you sick, or bothers others.

Jesus wants you to tell him all your worries, and trust Him, that he is on his way to help you. But you know, it will be his way of doing. He is the best, believe me. Better, believe Him.
No matter what comes in your way, He is with you. He’ll take the hit. Let Him be your shield, your protection. Ask him.

Let’s pray: Dear Lord, fill my heart with your peace. Come to me and be my shield, my protection, my lawyer, be my doctor, my immune system. Be with me, Be in me. Take the hit for me, because I can’t take it, I might faint. I’m too weak, be by my side; let me feel your presence, In Jesus name, Amen.

Já são dois dias que eu estou com essa dor no meu pescoço. Não ser capaz de sentar ou ficar em pé muito tempo, nem reclamar sobre isso, não tem sido fácil. Já fazia um tempo que a fibromialgia tinha me dado um tempo, eu estava até contente com isso. Mas quando as preocupações vêm, as dores também vêm.

É difícil não se preocupar com nada, ou mesmo controlar a necessidade de se preocupar. Às vezes parece um vício, a preocupação, sabe.  Você sente como se tivesse, porque se você não se preocupa, você se sente culpado ou irresponsável. Mas Jesus disse que ao se preocupar não adicionaremos nenhuma hora no nosso tempo de vida, então para que se incomodar? Resolve algo ao se preocupar? Acho que não.

No entanto, às vezes é inevitável. Como alguém que está para receber uma notícia que vai mudar sua vida para sempre, o que você acha? Tem como não se preocupar? Eu me preocuparia e ficaria ansiosa, certo? Por que nos sentimos desse jeito? Porque se não nos sentimos assim, as pessoas podem ter a impressão errada sobre nós, podem pensar que somos insensíveis ou ter um coração duro e frio.

Eu entendo. Nós não percebemos que agimos assim. É como se estivesse na nossa natureza se preocupar. Porque nós nos importamos. Nós amamos nossos amigos, família, e por isso nos preocupamos. Tudo bem, desde que essa preocupação não te deixe doente, ou incomode os outros.

Jesus quer que você diga para ele todas as suas preocupações, e confie nele, porque ele já está à caminho para te ajudar. Ele é o melhor, acredite. Melhor, acredite Nele. Não importa o que vem no seu caminho, Ele está com você. Ele vai tomar a pancada por você. Deixe-o ser seu escudo, sua proteção. Peça a Ele.

Oremos: Senhor Deus, enche meu coração com sua paz. Vem para mim e seja meu escudo, minha proteção, meu advogado, meu médico, meu sistema imune. Esteja comigo, esteja dentro de mim. Receba a pancada por mim, porque eu não aguento, eu posso desmaiar. Eu sou muito fraca; esteja ao meu lado e permita que eu sinta sua presença. Em nome de Jesus, amém.

Choose to be full of...// Escolha ser cheio de...

Can you choose to be   Joyful? (Full of joy) Peaceful? (full of peace) Patient? (full of patience) Kind? (full of kindness) Good? (full of goodness) Faithful? (full of faith) Gentle? (full of gentleness) Generous? (full of generosity) Self-controlled? (totally self-controlled) Can you choose to be like that all the time? To everyone?   What other religion would promise you that? I am not saying that all Christians are like that all the time. No, we are not, unfortunately. However, we are prone to be more successful than others, do you know why?  When Jesus was lifted to the heavens after his resurrection, he promised that a few days later, His Spirit would come to live in us. The Holy Spirit is our helper. When we live a godly life, a prayer life, and are filled with the Holy Spirit, those are the characteristics that should be seen in us—if not all of them, at least most of them.  Would you like to live like that? To treat people like that? Well, I suppose so. ...

My take on these stories // Minha opinião nessas histórias

The 2 Samuel 9 and 10 are about David’s kindness toward others. One person received his kindness humbly, knowing that wasn’t expected from that king in particular. Saul was the first king of Israel and did not obey the word of the LORD. Therefore, the kingdom was taken away from him and his lineage. God announced to Saul that he was going to give the kingdom to someone else. Being David. Because David was not a descendant of Saul, once he started reigning, it was expected that the new king, non-descendant of the former, would kill all the former king’s descendants so no one would stand in the line of succession. Bu David did not do that. Instead, he chose to show kindness toward the last person from Saul’s house.  Saul’s grandson accepted David’s kindness. And we have a beautiful story about grace.  Chapter 10, however, tells a different story. A story of a man who didn’t accept David’s kindness because that was what he was. A person who suspected everyone around him. He ...

Arise and eat // Levante e coma

  He came to a broom bush, sat under it, and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough,  Lord ,” he said. “Take my life; I am no better than my ancestors.”   5 Then he lay down under the bush and fell asleep. All at once, an angel touched him and said, “Get up and eat.”   6 He looked around, and there by his head was some bread baked over hot coals, and a jar of water. He ate and drank and then lay down again. 7 The angel of the  Lord  came back a second time and touched him and said, “Get up and eat, for the journey is too much for you.”   8 So he got up and ate and drank. Strengthened by that food, he traveled forty days and forty nights until he reached Horeb, the mountain of God. (1 Kings 19: 4-8) How many times have you wished that this life were over? I have wished that many times. Sometimes it is just too painful, or sad, or hopeless, isn’t it? You know, Elijah...
