When she is not around // Quando ela não está por perto

One day we will lose her. Some of us has already lost her. Others have never met her. I can’t even imagine the size of this pain. Many still have her but don’t give her the attention she needs. Some would love to, but they are far away.

Maybe you don’t see yourself in any of these scenarios. Luck you! But those who have identify oneself in one of these options may be suffering a great deal or trying to hide their feelings. I don’t know the reasons that have taken you here when every year when most of your friends are celebrating their mothers, and you are not.


If it is possible if she is still alive, please try to contact her before is too late. She won’t be here forever. Put yourself on her shoes. I am sure all that she has done was because she truly believed she was doing her best, even if she wasn’t trying that hard, do yourself your best. Show her that you still love her and miss her. She only wants your attention and compassion, maybe your forgiveness, after all, we all make mistakes.

But if you were abandoned, remember Psalm 27:10The LORD will take me in, for my father and my mother have forsaken me”. In Isaiah 49:15 says “Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, yet I (God) will not forget you”. I have no idea how this hurt, but I trust that if you are still standing here it is because God has been taking care of you and has been providing for you.


But, if you are brokenhearted because of the past or something that still is hurting, or you don’t know how to deal with your pain, listen: “The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Many are the affliction of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them allPsalm 34:18– 19.

1 For everything, there is a season and a time for every matter under the heavens.
2     a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3     a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build,
4     a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5     a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6     a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7     a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8     a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace. Ecclesiastes 3:1 – 8.

Let’s make sure that we pay very close attention to the bold parts, and shift if necessary, to them.

Dear Lord, heal my heart so next weekend all the remembrance of her go easy on me. I loved her, and I am thankful for you to have given me, through her, life. You have taken care of me. Help me, if it is possible to be reunited with her. In your Precious name, Jesus, Amen.


Um dia nós vamos perdê-la. Alguns de nós já perdeu. Outros nem a conheceram. Eu não posso nem imaginar o tamanho da dor. Muito ainda a tem, mas não lhe dá a atenção que ela precisa. Alguns adorariam, mas estão muito distantes.

Talvez você não se veja em nenhum desses cenários. Sortudo! Mas aqueles que tem se identificado em alguma dessas opções pode estar sofrendo bastante ou tentando esconder seus sentimentos. Eu não sei quais as razões que o trouxe até aqui, onde todo ano, quando a maioria dos seus amigos estarão celebrando suas mães, e você não.

Se for possível, se ela ainda estiver viva, por favor tente contatá-la, antes que seja tarde demais. Ela não estará aqui para sempre. Se coloque no lugar dela. Eu tenho certeza que tudo o que ela fez, foi porque ela realmente acreditava que estava fazendo seu melhor, e mesmo que ela não tenha tentado tanto, faça então você o seu melhor. Mostre a ela que você ainda a ama e que sente saudades. Ela somente quer sua atenção e compaixão, talvez seu perdão, afinal de contas todos nós cometemos erros.

Mas, se você foi abandonado, se lembre de Salmos 27:10Ainda que me abandonem pai e mãe, o Senhor me acolherá.” Em Isaías 49:15 diz, “Haverá mãe que possa esquecer seu bebê que ainda mama e não ter compaixão do filho que gerou? Embora ela possa esquecê-lo, eu não me esquecerei de você! Eu não faço ideia como isso dói, mas eu confio que se você está hoje aqui em pé é porque Deus tem cuidado e provido para você.

Mas, se você está com o coração machucado por causa do passado, ou algo que ainda magoa, ou ainda não sabe como lidar com a dor, ouça: “O Senhor está perto dos que têm o coração quebrantado e salva os de espírito abatido. O justo passa por muitas adversidades,
mas o Senhor o livra de todas; Salmos 34: 18 – 19.

1 Para tudo há uma ocasião certa; há um tempo certo para cada propósito debaixo do céu:
2 Tempo de nascer e tempo de morrer, tempo de plantar e tempo de arrancar o que se plantou,
3  tempo de matar e tempo de curar, tempo de derrubar e tempo de construir,
4 tempo de chorar e tempo de rir, tempo de prantear e tempo de dançar,
5 tempo de espalhar pedras e tempo de ajuntá-las, tempo de abraçar e tempo de se conter,
6 tempo de procurar e tempo de desistir, tempo de guardar e tempo de jogar fora,
7 tempo de rasgar e tempo de costurar, tempo de calar e tempo de falar,
8 tempo de amar e tempo de odiar, tempo de lutar e tempo de viver em paz. Eclesiastes 3:1 – 8

Vamos nos certificar que prestamos bem atenção nas partes em negrito, e mudar para elas se necessário.

Senhor querido, sara meu coração para que no próximo fim de semana as lembranças dela não doam tanto. Eu a amei, e eu sou grato for ter me dado, através dela, a vida. Ajuda-me, se possível reunir-me com ela. No Seu precioso nome, Jesus, amém.

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...

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. ...
