My life is proof enough that God exists
Даже если бы сотни людей доказывали мне, что Бога нет, мне бы хватило лишь своей жизни, чтобы доказать, что Он есть.
Smallest good deed is better, then an unfulfilled promise
Крошечный добрый поступок лучше, чем самые торжественные обещания сделать невозможное.
Where is the love?
Matthew 5:43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Matthew 5:46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
We feel compelled to think that we need to have this LOVE in our hearts for all the people around us, and our enemies, and people that we don't generally like for one reason or another. We came up with a saying I don't like you right now, but I do love you. And when you think about all the people that have hurt you or wronged you in any way, you don't feel this love swelling inside of you for these people. but Jesus teaches us to love our enemies and bless them and pray for them. And you think that, man Im so far from being this good person God wants me to be! How can I ever do Gods will?and love the people that have hurt me?
But as we all know love is not always a feeling its also an action. We see from scripture God doesn't give us instruction on having sweet, fluffy feelings in our hearts for these people. But to show them love, to bless them verbally, to pray for them silently, do good deeds for them. Not hurt them in return and curse them in return. But patiently comply to Gods teachings and do the good deeds for them, help them, pray for them and bless them.

The Lord is good and forgiving
We are so use to judging every situation by our own abilities. By our abilities to love, to forgive, to care. That we constantly forget that God is so much more than we are, That He has so much more power and abilities then we do. He has created us and put into us these abilities but in much lesser quantities, then His own. He says if you don't have wisdom then ask from Him. If we don't have enough love, peace, joy, patience, forgiveness, ect., all we need it to ask God and He will give it to us. Thank God for being to loving and forgiving and patient with us

Proverb. Faith and actions
ПРИТЧА «О ВЕРЕ И ДЕЛАХ»
Один человек, разочарованный в попытках разбогатеть, обратился к Господу с просьбой о выигрыше автомобиля в лотерею.
- Как же я тебе помогу? - сказал ему Бог.- Ты же не веруешь в меня! Истец поклялся, что будет верить и соблюдать все религиозные обряды.
Прошел год, пошел второй, истец добросовестно все соблюдает, а автомобиля все нет и нет... Снова взмолился проситель:
- Господи! Hу, что же ты? Я же уже два года молюсь, соблюдаю обряды и посты и что же?
- Я давно был бы рад помочь тебе, но ты хоть что-нибудь сделай сам. Да хоть купи лотерейный билет!
