Dreams of Believers and Non Believers

We are all human. We all need the same things to survive, to be happy, to live.

Why is it believers and non believers have the same sort of dreams. Riches, Popularity, Success of the World, praised by men. Wouldn't a believer when has come to know God be seeking other things. " Seek first the Kingdom of God and all things shall be added onto you". Shouldn't it not be in our heart to try to gain any of those as it is temporary, it is worldly, and it doesnt actually bring life.

Even King Solomon who was and is and forever will be the wisest man on earth. God asked Him " Ask! What shall i Give you"

Solomon "....give to your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, that i may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?"

What solomon asked God pleased God very much and God replied
" Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked long life for yourself, nor have asked riches for yourself, nor have asked the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern justice, behold i have done according to your words; see, I have given you a wise and understanding heart, so that there has not been anyone like you before you , nor shall any like you arise after you. And I have also given you what you have not asked; both riches and honor, so that there shall not be anyone like you among the kings all your days. So if you walk my ways, to keep my commandments as your father david walked, then I will lengthen your days"

Solomon seeked God's kingdom first. What would pleased God, He placed God first By having great love For God's people and as being the King wanted the Lord to give Him the ability to rule his land in justice and truth. And when Solomon seeked Gods kingdom :) all else was Surely added onto Him :)

There are stuff i really dislike.

Such as,

having fixed something, and just because they are family, they are able to change things around. To ask for it their way, and me trying to be nice will let it ( even though, sometimes i think, i just shouldn't be nice when i am not because that is being fake ) Seriously, i don't like when i have things to do, and it being changed and made more difficult for me because someone else has something not important to do, and pleasure to attend to. I don't know GOD!! Sometimes, why i am so different from everyone. But i want to live by your word and pray to you more each day. Instead of listening to people and their thoughts. Sometimes they are family and i think that i should listen to them because they are right, or older people because they are supposingly wiser. But GOD, i want you to be the only one i trust in. Sometimes i am RUDE, But help me lord. amen Only you can change me.

How to live

in the bible God does let us know how he wants us to live :)

Philipians 2:3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your interests, but also to the interests of others.

it carries on to saying, Like Jesus Christ who made himself nothing, and who became obedient until death !

Philipians 2:14 Do everything without complaining or arguing , so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation.

1 Thesallonians , Be joyful always , pray without ceasing in everything give thanks. For this is the will of God for you in Christ JEsus.

With all the available sites

such as facebook. Where we can set up a profile for the world to see and be in touch with us. We are able to post things, images to project an image we want others to think we are. We are able to choose the image we desire, and project it for everyone to see. Most of the time, we talk about ourselves or our finding, Its pretty self centered.  Or what you call a fake relationship. I think the only real way, true way to know a person, is to live with them. To hang out with them, to work with them.

Hence, i don't want to spend so much time developing and maintaining my image based on how i look, what is say, or what i post. But focus more on my day to day life, with my relationships with people i am around. You know, to get in touch with the real world.

i love working with things from the earth.
Planting, growing, looking after a mini ecosystem.
Cooking, baking, house potluck parties, home cooked food!
Experimenting, creating, being able to share my product, the sweet labor of work with others :)
No envy or anything like that, but just pure joy being able to produce something wonderful and share it with others.

i'll like to have :
. a vegetable garden
. flower / butterfly garden
. be able to make my own essential oils
. make bottled jam to share with others
. Be able to do any of the above and be able to put food on the table while laboring on them :)

i really really like it! nature, and all :)

going out last night.

And seeing how things are. I came to realized something about relationships.
They are like muscles, or health. If you want to be fit and strong, you need to be consistent in working to achieve it. Know your body, what you want to get out of it, 
you've got to see what to eat and drink ( consume )
your lifestyle and atmosphere you are in ( is it healthy, fresh, lively )
what you are inputting/ sow in order to reap. ( what are you planting/ working on everyday )
Its same for a relationship/ friendship. You'll need to know your self. What is good for you, how you are spending your time, with whom ( good or bad influences in your life ) they are all your choice. God gave us free will, and its our duty to be wise, and make the best choices and decisions each day. 

I also remember watching a sunday adelaja video. He said " Im going to challenge everyone who wants to try to be better than be, but first i have to know that i am the best, that i did all that i can, to know that i am smarter than them all " Which tells you, To be on top, you've got to know your field, your game, in order to excel!

Same for the friends i have, I will continue to stay true to myself, holding on to my ethics and values. Not letting myself be influenced by the world. Peer pressure, Not worth it. I'll say, you can always find something , someone good for you, you've got to search :) Always all the time. To not judge or condemn others but know love, to try to relate to them, but know your limits. Well, i don't want to go clubbing anymore i feel it is unhealthy , and its silly being influenced by people who aren't exactly smart in how they use their time. ( unless its a goodfriends party ) and its not something that is bad.

Lord , Thank you :)

Butterfly Fly Away

Caterpillar in the tree,
how you wonder who you'll be.
Can't go far but you can always dream,
Wish you may and wish you might,
don't you worry,
hold on tight.
I promise you there will come a day,
Butterfly, fly away... :)

Flap your wings now you can't stay,
Take those dreams and make them all come true.
We're been waiting for this day,
All along and know just what to do :)
Butterfly fly away...

Zoya Phan

I just read the Zoya Phan's Biography and it really spoke to me. About Life. The importance of Fighting for Liberty, Freedom and a Bright Future. Its truly worth the Fight. It involves hardwork, dedication, love, compassion, passion, determination. Bravery and Boldness. Strength and Courage.

God, There are so many people in need. I really do pray that these innocent lovely people, they would have a brighter future. That you'll take them out of this state of having evil upon them. I pray that God you would protect them all, and lead them out of Burma. I pray someday i'll be able to help more, Thank you that i have the opportunity to teach the kids, they have been a real blessing to my life and i pray that i will be able to give them much knowledge. Teach me lord to love and teach them well. To prepare them. As long as i am able to! I pray that they will come to know you too. Sometimes i feel that, it seems that as long as people believe in God that they are good people its good enough. Sometimes i wonder why they need you. I guess they need to know about grace and heaven. About your love. But it sucks when you see so many christian out there, who are no better than a non christian. Sometimes, me included. Sometimes i feel that it is more than following the law. I wish to be a better daugther, friend and student, worker and student . I really do... I pray that i'll learn to love, Yet stand up to what i should and be bold in fighting for freedom and what's right!.AMEN.

Fighting the good fight. My God loves me.

Because things that can't be seen. Can't be robbed.
Im not going to let the devil rob me of my future.
Waiting test and strenghten's my faith. My genuine faith.
During these periods of my life, the devil will do anything to try to steal, kill and destroy my dreams, my hopes my future, my joy, my health, my freedom. But in Christ. I am forever free. God's promises stand firm. His promise cannot be shaken. :)

Im not talking about being loony. But as i am given this choice to choose. I choose to be an encouragement to people, to be lovely, nice and helpful. And i will be able to do it better if i do not focus on the temporary. But look forward always, Always trying, always progressing :). Im not going to focus on my sickness.

God Delights in me, everyday of my life.

He has favor upon me. He has given me the blessing of being able to go to Italy! :D. Honestly I am sure he has given it to me. So many things are asking me to doubt the fact that God is certain and stable and that I and my weakness affects His decision and goodness upon my life. But this i know, no matter what i do, God knows my heart, and that He is a good God that always always give us the BEST even in our weakness that we yet to know to conquer.

"But this circumstance is exactly the precondition that God will use to make His plans for you to be carried out. If you have everything you need to accomplish your task, you won’t need faith. And without faith, you will never achieve success. God creates obstacles to teach you to trust Him. Faith is something that will make it possible for you to fulfill your calling, your destiny. It is the guarantee of your future success. Praise the Lord for your lacking something important. It is the beginning of your faith in the things you cannot yet see with your physical eyes. The apostle James wrote, "Faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. (James 2:17). So if you believe your plans will succeed, that God has planted a seed of greatness in you, don’t hesitate, but act on your faith.

The important thing is that you keep moving toward your goal and your faith will help you achieve this. We will see how this works in the next principle for success. 

Proclaim by faith things that you expect to have in your life. Speak about your goals and plans as if they already have been realized. Then promise God that you will do your best to attain your goal. Give thanks to God by faith, from the bottom of your heart, for planting a seed of greatness in you." - Pastor Sunday Adelaja, principle of continual success.
 ----------------------------------
God gave you life for a purpose. You have a particular purpose to fulfill, and you must understand what this purpose is and fulfil that particular purpose. So if God has created you, then there are specific tasks that He has purposed for you to accomplish, tasks which only you and nobody else can fulfill.

You may not know what this purpose is yet, but this doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist.
...

Ignorance is darkness. You know that the devil, who is the prince of darkness, wants people to be kept in ignorance, because that gives him the possibility of ruling over them. He will always rule over you in those areas of life where things are still not fully clear to you.

But as for those who have come to God, their lives have changed. The knowledge of the Word of God has made them free. The light of God’s truth has dispersed their darkness and joy has come into their lives. Depression and feelings of hopelessness have all been left behind in the past. By the stripes of Jesus they have been healed, and so they don’t allow the devil to oppress them anymore through sickness. They know that the joy of the Lord is their strength and their fortress. They are no longer afraid of people, because they know that it is the devil who is trying to lure them into a net of fear. God, however, has not given them a "a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind" (2 Timothy 1:7).

But how can a person find out what is his purpose and calling is in life? Don’t just look at the different possibilities you have and try to work things out for yourself. If you want to know what your purpose and calling is, then go to God and ask Him for what purpose He created you, ask Him what that calling is that He has ordained for your life. God brought you into the church and you came to your Creator, so you are already right there at the source of all knowledge. God is your Creator and He’s the only one who knows what your purpose and calling is in life.

But before God can reveal things to you and open up that calling to you, you will have to go through a time of waiting and preparation, during which the principle of being faithful in "what is least" starts to operate.
