October is nearly here and it's time to participate the project 31 Days.
What is it?
31 Days is an online writing challenge started by home blogger, Myquillyn Smith (The Nester) where bloggers pick one topic and write a post on that topic every day in October. 
This is my third year to participate this project and I'm really looking forward to it! 
The first year my subject of my writing project was 31 days without stress.If you are interested you can read the post from here.
Last year  I wrote for 31 days how to encourage yourself and if you would like to take some encouragement pills you can read all the post from here.
Every year God somehow has showed me the subject about which to write  during these 31 days 
and it has always been something that has touched my life and I hope these subjects can be a blessing to you too.
This year I'll write about powerful prayer.



I know the importance of prayer. I know how to pray.
And I want to pray.
But I also want to find out if there are some ways that I can improve 
my prayer life.
So please join me for these 31 days and let's learn together how to pray
powerful prayers! 










 





Yesterday I talked with a girl who said that she believes that she is here on this earth
just to suffer...she said that that's the way life is... everyone has always some problems and
you just try to survive.
But that's not true at all... God created us for a purpose... 
He has a great plan for our lives...for your life!
And the great thing is that when we are not focused on ourselves but we
help other people around us we will be blessed and 
we will even be happy by helping others!


I red a beautiful quote:


 So if you want to be blessed remember to be a blessing,
because God promises us that if we bless others we will be abundantly blessed!
Be a blessing to some one today!
 
Do you know what is the secret to have a successful life?
It's simply this: 
Life is happening right now.
So be present!
And be thankful for it!

My parents celebrated their 50th anniversary earlier in this month.
I think it is really a good achievement in the present day as so 
many couples are getting divorced even among the Christians.
I want to follow my parents example!
In Mark 10:8 it's written that when a couple gets married 
the two are united into one.
So why is it nowadays that so often the two becomes one?
I just listened to a great message from pastor Steven Furtick...
The question is:Do we blame the other person and spend all our time trying to fix them?
 Or do we rely on God’s commands to work in our own hearts and change our situation?
The answer is... I can't fix my husband but there are sure things I can change in me!
So what can we do to become a better spouse?


What I learned from the pastor Furtick message is that in my marriage I am called to :

Carry my husband's burdens and not to add to them.
Assume the best: I filter everything through the idea that my husband loves me and cares about me.
Live with the contentment:I daily live content with  who I am and who my spouse is and I remember
to be content about all the blessings we have.
Let God be God: I focus to be the wife God has called me to be and trust that God will work on my spouse.
Encourage your strengths:I can pour courage into my spouse!
Do it anyway:Sometimes I don't feel like it,but I have to do it anyway!

This pastor Furtick's sermon really spoke to me and I hope you can watch it too!
I pray that your marriage will continue to be blessed!

God's grace is amazing...and we all need it every day-
it's all we need!

And God is able to make all grace overflow to you
 so that because you have enough of everything in every way at all times,
 you will overflow in every good work. 
-2 Corinthians 9:8





God's word is food for our souls! 
Memorize it.Confess it.

Let the words of the Bible enter into your mind and descend into your heart...
And let God's word transform your whole being!
Have a blessed day!

 


Have a blessed Sunday!

"I don’t know what your challenge is today, but I do know that God knows.
GOD SEES.
GOD CARES.
 God can and will act on your behalf. 
God can make a way where there is no way."
