I need help being good / Eu preciso de ajudar para ser bom


 

Lord,

Thank you for hearing me. Help me with my weaknesses. Let love showed by me be genuine; teach me to abhor evil and hold fast to what is good. Help me to love others with brotherly love affection and outdo one another in showing honor. Lord, I don’t want to be slothful in zeal, but fervent in spirit, to serve the Lord. I also want to rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, and constant in prayer. Give me, O Lord, a generous heart to contribute to the needs of the saints and seek hospitality.

Jesus put in my mouth only blessings, especially for those who persecute me, and for those to who I have difficulty relating. Give me a sympathetic heart to rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep. Lord, I confess that I haven’t been putting enough effort to live in harmony with one another, please, help me with that. I don’t want to be haughty but associate with the lowly. Help me to see that I am not that wise, only You know what is best. Stop me when I am prone to repay evil with evil, but show me how to do what is honorable in the sight of all.

Lord,  one more time,  I need to learn how to live peaceably with all. Remove, God, from my mind any thought about vengeance, but leaving that with You, for it is written “Vengeance is mine, I will repay” says the Lord. Instead, help me to obey your commandments and be good even to those who have not been good to me; if they need anything that I can provide for them, inspire me to help them.

Finally, Lord of my life, do not let me be overcome by evil but help me overcome evil with good.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

(Romans 12: 9 – 21)

Senhor,

Obrigado por me ouvir. Ajude-me com minhas fraquezas. Que o amor demonstrado por mim seja genuíno; ensina-me a abominar o mal e a apegar-me ao que é bom. Ajude-me a amar os outros com afeto de amor fraternal e superar um ao outro em mostrar honra. Senhor, eu não quero ser preguiçoso no zelo, mas fervoroso no espírito, para servir ao Senhor. Também quero regozijar-me na esperança, ser paciente nas tribulações e constante na oração. Dá-me, Senhor, um coração generoso para contribuir com as necessidades dos santos e buscar hospitalidade.

Jesus, coloque na minha boca apenas bênçãos, principalmente para aqueles que me perseguem, e para aqueles com quem tenho dificuldade em me relacionar. Dá-me um coração compassivo para alegrar-me com os que se alegram e chorar com os que choram. Senhor, confesso que não tenho me esforçado o suficiente para viver em harmonia um com o outro, por favor, ajude-me com isso. Eu não quero ser arrogante, mas me associar com os humildes. Ajude-me a ver que não sou assim tão sábio, só Você sabe o que é melhor. Pare-me quando estiver propenso a retribuir o mal com o mal, mas mostre-me como fazer o que é honrado aos olhos de todos.

Senhor, mais uma vez, preciso aprender a viver em paz com todos. Remova, Deus, da minha mente qualquer pensamento sobre vingança, mas deixo isso com Você, pois está escrito “A vingança é minha, eu retribuirei” diz o Senhor. Em vez disso, ajude-me a obedecer a seus mandamentos e a ser bom, mesmo para aqueles que não têm sido bons para mim; se eles precisarem de algo que eu possa fornecer para eles, inspire-me a ajudá-los.

Enfim, Senhor da minha vida, não me deixe vencer pelo mal, mas ajude-me a vencer o mal com o bem.

Em nome de Jesus, Amém.

(Romanos 12: 9-21)

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...

Solitude and Silence // Solidão e silêncio

  In moments of peace and tranquility, it is useful to remember times of stress and struggle by Thomas à Kempis Whenever you are enjoying some time of peace and rest, it is useful to call to mind those times when you have been busy, overworked, or stressed. Whenever you are enjoying the calmness of solitude and silence, it is useful to reflect on those occasions when you have been assaulted with noise and activity. Indeed, calling such things to mind is a sure and effective way of learning to love and value the peaceful tranquility of your times of solitude! If you reflect upon how easily you can become anxious or worried, or how little it takes to perturb your soul, you will also realize that the achievement of true inner peace is not something which human efforts can ever achieve on their own. Left to yourself, how often you have fallen prey to anxiety, even when there is little or no real need to worry! How often, even when you are surro...

We are the Winners // Nós somos os vencedores

  The death of my cousin made me think about a few things. Yes, it was a sad thing. So unexpected. It got us all by surprise, which hurt. He was such a nice, joyful, and lively guy or man. He will certainly be missed. What we have here but the present. My mom and my other cousin spoke at the funeral. Yes, we have nothing here. It makes no sense at all to get attached to things of this world when at any moment we might leave it. Our days are numbered, but we don’t know how many we were given. How are you living your days? Sometimes we take it for granted because we are young or have health and may think that we have a whole life ahead of us. But do we really? Some live their lives as if all they have to do is party. As if parties were the most important thing in the world. Fun is part of life, so are sadness, problems and relationships, and hard times. Are we going to take something from this world when we die? I am pretty sure we a...
