Abiding in His Love

“There is no more lovely, friendly or charming relationship, communion or company, than a good marriage.” Martin Luther

I am so blessed!

June 27, 2008 at 7:45 am · Filed under news from far away

A few moments ago I read some thought of a friend of mine. She is a much better writer… actually I think that anyone is a better writer than I am. But we are not in a competition here on Earth to show off with the GIFTS that God has given us.. but rather to use whatever gift we have to give Him glory. Even though I might have less gifts I rejoice in in ones I have.

Well to get back to my thought! I am so blessed by God and it would be a sin not to give HIM glory!

Talking about my friend… even though she has so much to give glory to God for – she is so distracted by the trials of the day. You might say to yourself that everyone knows his/her own burden and you are right! BUT remember the words of our Lord Jesus that called all the heavy burdened to come and put the burden on Him!…. I pray that she will find rest and peace in the loving hands of our Lord Jesus!

Why am I so blessed?!

I am o blessed because I know to whom I belong! I was purchased with such an extravagant price… how can I NOT feel special?! I pray that my friend will feel how special she is in God’s eyes!

I am so blessed to be called by God to a country far away from my home and family to be His witness! As some of you know God has put a passion upon our hearts even before we met, for the lost people in the Muslim countries. We are blessed to meet and serve with people who come from those countries, who serve in those countries.

I am so blessed with such a wonderful husband! Beside the gift of salvation Cristi is the most precious gift that God has given me! Even though we were separated for a few months our love grew. I believe that today our love is more beautiful than 3 years ago when we got married! I AM BLESSED!

I am blessed to be the mother of our wonderful son. Isaiah is so much joy, so much fun, but at the same time such a great responsibility. Whenever I watch him play, eat, talk…. name it… I never compare to anyone else in this world! I just think I am the most blessed mom!!! THANK YOU LORD FOR ISAIAH!

I am blessed because I trust that in due time God will give Isaiah other brothers and/or sisters!

I am blessed with wisdom, health, talents, peace, food (too much) … home and so many more!

I praise God for the Love the He showers upon our family!

I am so blessed with all the material blessings that I enjoy everyday!If you read this post it means that you are also one of those who has so much to be thankful for!

I pray that God will always reminding me through His Holy Spirit, that I AM SUCH A BLESSED PERSON!

P.S. This post is not meant to disregard my friend’s struggles, rather her trials made me realize that no matter how discouraged we might be at times… God can always give us enough reasons to praise HIM!

URGENT PRAYER REQUEST~ for Carmen – ANSWERED PRAYER

Carmen is my home town ( from Romania) pastor's wife. These past couple of weeks she seamed to have some heart problems so her husband insisted to take her to Timisoara( a large city) for further investigation. The result that came was not what they expected. As the doctors did some test and ultra sounds they discovered some spots on her liver. A clear diagnosis was not given yet but the doctors told the pastor that she has some type of cancer in her body. Might be liver cancer.. might be spread in her body?! They do not know yet! PLEASE KEEP HER IN YOUR PRAYERS! PLEASE KEEP THE ENTIRE FAMILY IN YOUR PRAYERS! They are a couple very dear to us! Thank you and God bless! ...................................... GOOD NEWS! Carmen had a biopsy at one of the best clinics in Romania and the test came negative! She does NOT HAVE cancer. She still has to go through a lot of treatments because she has some medical problems but THANK GOD SHE IS CANCER FREE! GOD STILL CAN DO miracles!!! Anyways whether she ever had cancer or not, we do not know ... all we know at this point is what the doctors told her! THANK YOU SO MUCH for YOUR PRAYERS!!! THEY MEAN THE WORLD TO THEM! THANK YOU ON BEHALF OF HER FAMILY!

PRAYER REQUEST for NELLY ( my sister) – ANSWERED PRAYER

This is a very special prayer request for my sister. She just had a miscarriage due to a "cyst" ( don't know how to call it) on her uterus. She had some tests to see if there is any tumor of any kind and the results came well but she still worries about the surgery that she must have in the following weeks. Please keep her in your prayers... that she will be strong in her faith in God and that the doctors will take that "thing" away and that she will be able to have lots of children! We know that God answers prayers so we ask you to join us in prayer for her! Thank you so much! Ica ............................ THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR PRAYERS! THE SURGERY WENT WELL. SHE IS STILL IN THE PROCESS OF RECOVERING FROM THE SURGERY BUT ALL IS WELL! THE DOCTOR TOLD HER THAT SHE WILL BE ABLE TO HAVE BABIES! PRAISE GOD! ISN'T IT TRUE THAT WE HAVE SUCH A WONDERFUL GOD AND FATHER! ON BEHALF OF MY SISTER AND HER HUSBAND LOTS OF THANKS FOR YOUR PRAYERS!

PRAYER REQUEST- ANSWERED PRAYER!

Please pray for our friend's little girl! Her name is Nina and she is about 9 years old. She just had a heart surgery and her heart beat / pulse is too high and needs to slow down. We ask you to pray to our Father to touch her, to give the doctors wisdom and the family comfort and assurance that they and their little girl is in His loving hands! For those of you that have been praying for little Nina, I have some good news. She is ok now - she is still in the process of recovery but she is out of danger and the heart surgery was a succes! PRAISE BE TO GOD! Doctors treat patients but HOD HEALS THEM!

From 31 Days toward Intimacy with GOD by Jony Eareckson Tada

"Love is extravagant in the price it is willing to pay, in the time it is willing to give, the hardship it is willing to endure, and the strength it is willing to spend. Love never thinks in the terms of " how little", but always in terms of "how much." Love gives, love knows, love lasts. and that is what God has given us. The quality that marks the ministry of God's love for us is the sheer extravagance of giving His most precious gift... His Son. When the Father considered ransoming sinful, wretched men and women such as us, I don't think He thought in the terms of how little He should give, but HOW MUCH. Our hearts should - must - overflow with thankfulness and gratitude for all our Father has given. He has made the way open to INTIMACY WITH HIS GREAT HEART."
