From mom to mom: tired?

36637397_ml-870x418Dear mom.

Perhaps at this moment you are tired and don’t know how else to deal with your children.

Sometimes it seems as if the control of their education escaped out of our hands.

I have gone through that as well, and that feeling lasts for years, isn’t it so…I didn’t know how else to deal with my daughter, I lost direction.

Do you know why? We don’t know how to react with the authority that we have by nature, by the fact of being a mom.

Therefore what ends up happening is that we stoop down to their level, there is no dialogue, then there is no understanding and we end everything without peace and what’s worse the problem gets bigger and bigger everyday.

What we must do is create a bond of trust between parents and children.

That’s right, because if your child doesn’t hide anything from you even when he does something wrong he will tell you and you will be able to correctly guide him, showing him that he will always ripe what he sows. Unfortunately many times that doesn’t happen, the child doesn’t trust his parents because there is no dialogue. Every time they find out something about their child instead of talking and guiding them… the end up with arguments, the punishment, mistrust, frustration, cries and so on… In this case everyone is better off minding his or her own business.

What if you, mom, start from the beginning by calling your child for a conversation of love, respect, comprehension, and propose that from that day on you will always be true friends; since the role of a father and mother is to guide, teach, explain the why not’s. Of course who makes the decision is the child but at least you truly did your part.

May God guide you!

The task as an offering of this week is for you to read my previous post, where I speak about the 7 characteristics of an attractive spirit and write in your journal which characteristics you already have and which you still lack. Then write a list of how you plan to develop the characteristics that you’re missing, for example:

“I’m bold for some things but not for the things that make a difference in my life, and that for that reason I end up being irresponsible to the point people can’t count on me. From today on I will be responsible with the little I have, I’m not just going to give my best, but I will learn to do better than what I have done so far by reading about it, researching the topic and investing time on the subject.”

How about it, are you excited? Talk to your friend like sister, she may have ideas on how you can develop these characteristics effectively…

Don’t forget to share on your social networks using the #taskasanoffering13

Task as an Offering #14

No, it’s not easy to have an attractive spirit. As you may have seen in the last #taskasanoffering, but who said what’s good comes easy? Every time you want to make things easier, deep down you don’t want what’s best, but what is common… let me explain.

Lets say you are overweight and you know that in order to lose weight, you have to stop eating things you like and the way that you like to eat them. You also know that you have to be more active and disciplined with your body. So what do you do? You get discouraged. Then you Google for easy diets… diets that do not require exercise or that don’t prevent you from eating things you like to eat or that only last seven days. In other words, you want what everyone wants, to lose weight without having to work hard. To my own shame, I even looked for a diet that would allow me to eat my carbs.

This is ridiculous. You know, I know, we all know, but… we don’t stop doing it. And do you know why? Because, we do not want to sacrifice. This is just an example… let’s go to another common example:

You need new clothes because the ones you have are old, worn out, faded and don’t look so nice on you anymore. Then, you immediately think of a store where you will be able to buy lots of clothes without spending too much, as usual. The problem is that as long as you don’t want to invest in pieces that are high in quality, that will last longer and will fit better, you’ll always come back to this problem… clothes that become old and worn out in the second or third wash. You don’t want to spend more for less, you want to spend more for more and this is what you get. Clothing of quality costs more… cheap clothes do not have quality. Instead of buying five new shirts, buy one for the cost of the five — that one shirt will last you. You will buy less, will have to wait longer to have more clothes, but you will have a wardrobe full of quality.

So friends, with this understanding, the #taskasanoffering14 is for you to find in your routine what could be better but is not because you are satisfied with what is common and avoid sacrificing for what is best. This task is for you to think, reflect, maybe talk to people who know you well and find what they see that you could do better or be better at.

Once you’ve discovered what you have to do, write down in your journal what you will start to do about it. You may need to include it in the previous list from the #taskasanoffering13, in fact… this offering is an extension of the previous one. It will help you develop a real attractive spirit. So take advantage of it!

Here are some examples of what to think about in this task:

  • Being a better wife
  • Being a better housewife
  • Being a better friend
  • Being a better mother
  • Being a better daughter
  • Being a better sister
  • Being a better daughter-in-law
  • Being a better mother-in-law
  • Being a better student
  • Being a better assistant
  • Being a better aunt
  • Being a better professional
  • Being a better citizen

If you have made it up to here with the Godllywood Self Help and you have done them all as an offering for God, then you have probably already accomplished the following:

 

  • A better understanding of yourself
  • Interior changes that make all of the difference in the way that you treat others and yourself
  • A relationship with God
  • A better relationship with the people around you; those at home, at work, at school and in the streets.
  • Exterior changes, in your appearance, in the way you speak and walk
  • You are better organized with your time; you know how to priorities what is most important in your life.

 

Your #taskasanoffering15 is to evaluate yourself in regards to what you have accomplished up to now.

 

Perhaps you have accomplished everything in the list above, perhaps something’s are still missing, or perhaps you accomplished it just for a while like during the week of the task and now your reality is back to how it used to be.

 

Evaluate your situation in the Godllywood Self Help. Consider once more all of the tasks that you have done up to now and see which ones should already be part of your day to day.

 

  1. Comment here what you have accomplished and what you are still working on accomplishing.
  2. Set a time with your Sister of the Godllywood Self Help on a Wednesday before the night meeting to talk about what you still need to work on.

 

Remain in the faith! All change for the better costs us a little in the beginning, but with our perseverance and faith, it will become part of a beautiful story that you will one-day share to motivate many others. :)

The color of this world

I am going to tell you the story of a girl who today is an adult, but who was born in church. It is a story that will help warn many of you to not fall into the same mistake.

I meet her when she was with about 10 year of age and at that time we didn’t have the PT Force in the church, so she would help us in the CBC.

She loved the kids, she would help us color the weekly visuals that we would use to help explain the lesson to the kids, she would help us prepare the snacks; she was practically a mini Volunteer of the CBC.

However, time was going by and the phase of adolescence was approaching…

She began to get involved with friends at school and boys as well, and I always say, there is no such thing as friendship between boys and girls, because it doesn’t work out.

Girls have to be friends with girls, if not they end up passionate with the boy, I’ve seen it happen up close. Friendships between boys and girls end up in dating, it’s a fact. These friends, lead her to be interested in diverse things of the world, things that she didn’t know, and that apparently were awesome, this is the color of the world.

Therefore, what was very awesome, fun and colorful brought her the gift of pregnancy at an unexpected age of 16.

She was desperate, and her boyfriend as well, that is why he ran away and left her alone and pregnant at that age.

To summarize it all, this world doesn’t have anything good to offer us, the boys of the world don’t want commitments; they just want to play with innocent girls and leave.

Lets be wise, don’t let your self get involved with wrongful things…

In our minds exists a device that always warn us when we are about to do something wrong, and that device is our conscious.

Therefore, lets keep it clean, far from sin, from the wrongful things so that way we can remain always strong in the presence of God.

Darlings, we skipped a week without a task as an offering in order for you to dedicate more time in the last task, and that’s what we will start doing from now on. You will have two weeks to work on each #taskasanoffering, that way it will be easier to make each task part of your daily routine.

The task as an offering is: INVESTING IN YOUR FEMININITY

How so Cris?

Unfortunately, today women are encouraged to be like men that she forgets her feminine essence and that has devalued women a lot. Women think that being feminine is being weak… but take a look at what it means to be feminine and then tell me if that isn’t good for you:

  • Being feminine is being graceful
  • Being feminine is being kind
  • Being feminine is being generous
  • Being feminine is being careful
  • Being feminine is being polite
  • Being feminine is being discreet
  • Being feminine is being affectionate
  • Being feminine is being malleable
  • Being feminine is being elegant

So, is this bad or good for you? What about others? Is it a sign of feminine weakness or strength?

This week practice these qualities above. Here are some examples:

  • Don’t say bad words.
  • Say good morning with a smile to everyone at home and work.
  • Wear women’s clothing. Many times these clothes are not the most comfortable but have you noticed that those small heels make you walk with posture more than with flip-flops? And when you wear a skirt, have you noticed that you are more careful in the way you walk or sit down?
  • Be loving to your children, parents and your siblings. Sometimes a compliment makes their day!
  • Listen to others more and talk less.
  • Be careful with your tone of voice.
  • Take time to take care of your home, decorating, cleaning, organizing and making it a cozy place for your family.

Darlings, if you participated of the last Godllywood Self-help meeting in the month of May, you learned that lack of appreciation generates complaints and no one likes to be around people who complain, not even God. Your #taskasanoffering of this week will help you practice what you have learned:

In the next two weeks, you will appreciate your home:

  • You will tidy up your house the best way possible!
  • You will take time to clean and organize it.
  • How about taking a day to organize the cabinets and drawers?
  • Add a few small plants or flowers in the main areas of the house.
  • Fix things that are broken, replace burned out bulbs…
  • Plan a redecoration to implement it when you can financially.
  • Clean the areas where you never have time to clean like the balcony, windows, the entrance, drawers, etc.

Why exists the Fast of Daniel?

We are living in a time that a person who does not have a mobile phone with Internet, is practically considered E.T.
The girls at school knows everything that’s going on TV, what are the singers of the moment, the most beautiful actors, the gossip of the artists, well … the news comes in a fraction of a second over the internet.

Oh you think … okay; now everyone is up with the news thanks to the media, either through TV or Internet. But have you ever stopped to think that our brain is like memory card? Everything we see, or read will be stored there, and as any memory card, it is full and if we do not eliminate some things, it does not save anything.

How can God find space to dwell in you, if you are full of this world? You know everything in the world and nothing about God. So there is the fasting of Daniel, so that you empty yourself of this world and God can find a place to live in you.

During 21 days we will be away from the things of this world, to learn the things of God. We can only hear His voice when we are empty of this world.
It’s so good, it’s a wonderful experience … make a sacrifice in this fast, drop everything that moves you away from God and get involved with everything closer you to Him.

Read the church’s blogs, pray, Read Bishop Macedo’s daily messages to help you throughout this 21-day journey. Use them for your spiritual and personal growth. We will sacrifice for the most precious, which is the Holy Spirit in us.

I’m sure there will be great testimonies of all you here on the site.

“Wheel Ferris’s Life”

Hello friends, today I want to take a more direct conversation with you …
I have seen, met and even friends commented to me the difficulty that some of you have to be firm with God.
It seems that spiritual life walks as a Ferris wheel, today you’re up, and tomorrow you’re down. Today want much from God, want to know Him, to get close to Him, tomorrow it’s as if no longer have strength even to pronounce His name. And why this happens? Why is it so hard to be close to God, at this step of your life?

It’s simple … you are just like a flower blossoming, everything is new, many things in life is unknown, and always has that “friend” that comes with a lot news, that do not help you at all to develop in your spiritual life.

But you can be a blooming flower, to know the things of God. I know it’s hard,
There are days that the will to pray does not come, read the Bible either! But you have to fight against your will, and do God’s will.

Let’s see what the Bible says  — But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.  (Romans 8:9)

Here says that, when we have the Spirit of God, we can not live in the flesh, i.e., the things of the world that today attract you, leading you to distance from God, when you have the Holy Spirit, you pass to have disgust from this world.

You do not get live with worldly friendships, can no longer live with what does not please God, it is as if a device within you that is activated every time that you were doing something wrong.

Then, do everything in within your reach to have Him inside of you, then your spiritual life will always be alive.

The prayer of a mother has great value, she is an authority over her children and her words can bless or curse.

Because of society nowadays, a mother’s concern for her child is constant due to all the bad influences easily available through the internet, school, neighborhood and so on.

How can we keep a child safe today? How to ensure that their future is blessed? Only through the power of intelligent faith.

This is why the Mothers in Prayer Project brings mothers together weekly that are facing several different situations with two things in common: The unconditional love for their children and deciding to join their faith on their behalf every week.

Hello ladies, I miss you all,

I have been absent from here on the block but present on TV and the radio, well we are going live every day on channel Rede TV at 5pm, channel 21 at 7:30pm, and on the radio station 99,3FM at 6:30am, 11:30am, 11:30pm daily, other than on Record on Saturdays at 12pm, so you guys see, right? I don’t even have time to sit at the computer to respond an email, imagine a blog.

Well; today I will pass along to you a task that I would like for you to do for three weeks. It is as follows:

 

 WHAT YOU NEED TO SACRIFICE TO BE ON GOOD TERMS WITH THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU?

 

Human beings have a tendency to look at the mistakes of others but find it very difficult to look at, to able to see. We like to be the victim, or use the excuse that we are in a way for this or that… I’m so because my parents were not present when I grew up; I’m like this because my mother was very aggressive with me; I’m like this because I had no father; I’m like this because my ex betrayed me; I am like this because nobody ever gave me love; I’m like this because I was born in a poor family, etc., etc., etc.

However you are not making up and truly something in your past has hindered life a little more for you, know that you still have the power of decision: you can decide to be who you want to be.

While you decide to be who your parents made you to be, or the situation in your childhood influenced you to be or disappointed in life, you will not be, who you need to be!

Therefore the first step toward your decision to be a different person is: sacrifice what makes you a type of person that is:

  • Embittered
  • complainer
  • needy
  • weak
  • boring
  • crybaby
  • insecure
  • aggressive
  • quiet
  • gossip Girl
  • shy
  • fearful
  • malicious
  • grumpy
  • lazy
  • disorganized
  • emotional

Make this task as an offering for yourself and to God. Do not mind if people around you deserve or not your change: you deserve!
In three weeks leave your comments here about how was this change for you. What you conquered through it. In whom you become due to it.

In faith.

God my Friend

As I have said here before for you, I converted early, with 12 years and  at the moment of my conversion I understood that to be of God I had to walk separate the things of this world, including friendships.
When I wasn’t from God, I felt hurt, because of that at school I started to be alone, feel like a person from another world that no one wanted to get close.

And indeed it is, because the Bible says it is not possible for a person who is of the light to walk with those who are in darkness and vice versa.
But one day I read something in the Bible that caught my attention … Please pay attention below:

 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. James 2:23

So, I stopped and think, how so? If Abraham was called friend of God, I can too, and I will never feel alone and abandoned whether at school, at church, etc.; my Friend always will be with me.

It was what happened after my baptism with the Holy Spirit. God began to dwell within me and I never felt lonely or sad again, whatever can happen, I know that, God is always with me because a true friend never abandon us.
