18The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

21For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.

24Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

26Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

28Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. 29They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

1. Inainte de a fi noi, a fost gandul Lui Dumnezeu de a ne crea,de a fauri lumea si imprejurarile de care avem nevoie pentru a trai (aer, Terra, apa, etc)

2. Apoi a fost randul de minuni: minunea de a lua fiinta (din miile de spermatozoizi, doar unul supravietuieste-tu), de a creste in pantecele mamei, nasterea.

3. Protectia Sa. De multe ori ne-a salvat de accidente de masina, inec, si multe care nu le-am observat. Purtarea Sa de grija asupra sanatatii mele.

4. Si parca nu era de ajuns ceea ce a facut pentru noi (sa creeze un mediu, un trup, si sa aibe grija de el si sanatatea ta) Ori de cate ori Ii cerem ceva, EL ne da.

5. Binecuvantari nenumarate (ne-a pregatit si o casa in care sa putem locui, un pat, mancare, cadouri)

6. Eu cum i-am raspuns ? Intorcandu-i spatele ori de cate ori am putut face asta. EL cum a raspuns de fiecare data ? Punandu-L pe Fiul Sau inaintea mea, ca un filtru => a iertat greseala => mi-a iertat pacatele

7. Nici atat nu a fost de ajuns cat a facut pentru noi. A creat oportunitatea de a fi mantuiti. Prin credinta in Fiul Sau noi putem fi mantuiti, nu prin fapte, ca sa nu se laude nimeni. Mantuirea. 2. Apoi a creat Raiul. (ma duc sa va pregatesc locul, si ma voi intoarce dupa voi) Nu suntem aici statornici, o casa avem si ea este in cer.

 Am facut cruce din ultimele lacrimi                                                          
si ti-am inaltat mormant prin aste foi,
am aprins o lumanare la fereastra,
lumanarea ce te-a departat prea mult de noi…

Si plang sarutand covor de frunze moarte
pe pustie-trista cararea ta,
caci nu mai poti fi nici macar o stea in noapte,
adio,adio,mama mea!…

Vino,Doamne,coboara peste crucea ei
caci pamantul,demult ii lacrima,
felinarul meu se stinge cu orice clipa,
adio,adio,mama mea!…

Si prin aburi ce vin si trec
ma inchin la acest pustiu,
vino,Doamne,coboara,Doamne,
peste sufletul tarziu!…

Dati-mi si mie timpul inapoi
sa mai pot a fi ceva,
dati-mi si mie viata-n aste foi
sa pot s-o vad pe mama mea!…

Caci asa,nu ma simt decat un rastignit,
incatusat prin amintiri fara inteles,
ma simt sfartecat de crudul infinit
si-am ars in Univers…

Te plangeam mereu cu ochi pierduti
si te plang ca nu te vad ca stea,
ma arde sudoarea de pe frunti,
adio,adio,mama mea!…

Esti o tarana si moarta si rece,
si-as vrea sa-ti incalzesc pustiul cu ceva,
timpul meu m-a ucis si inca trece,
adio,adio,mama mea !…

Mortua est !

Chiar daca nu te pot vedea, auzi sau imbratisa te port mereu cu mine in inima mea. Dragostea nu va muri nicidata.

In a consumer society, it is pushed through aggressive marketing
campaigns that we always need that next thing, that next “fix” to
make life easier. We depend on products to make us more intelligent,
more beautiful, to provide security, etc. and therefor allow us to
“achieve” happiness. The truth is happiness that is dependant upon
acquiring things is fleeting and temporary. Its effects wear off
quickly and leave the individual feeling empty and seeking the next
“fix”. When we attain joy through the conscious effort of choice we
become empowered, and that results naturally in becoming more at
peace and centered in our daily lives.

Today’s Exercise:

Happiness is not an achievement, it doesn’t have prerequisites.
Today, focus your attention on consciously choosing joy and a sense
of satisfaction moment to moment. Watch your thought patterns. When
you think of joy does it feel distant to you? Is it centered around
things or other people? Are there conditions placed on it? Often we
speak of unconditional loving, but many of us dont’ reflect on
“unconditional peace” or “unconditional joy”. Today, allow yourself
to discover true happiness. At the end of the day reflect on your
discoveries in your journaling.

In our society, we are continually bombarded by images of all the
“stuff” we must acquire to be successful, rich, etc. The truth is
most of us don’t recognize that success and wealth don’t come from
the things that we acquire, but from having the right “stuff” inside
ourselves.

By expressing gratitude for all of the blessings you have right now,
you leave no room for feelings of limitation and lack, because you
have shifted your focus to genuine prosperity. Where our thoughts go,
so does our energy, so if you feel limited and like you are in need,
you will draw more of the same to you. Consciously focusing on all
you do have, with respect and humility, allows the richness of life
to flow through you, and in its path comes more than you will ever
need.

Today’s Exercise:

Start a gratitude journal if you don’t have one. The goal is to reach
999 things that you are thankful for. Add to the list each day until
you reach your goal. Watch your life begin to change after taking on
this task. For an added twist have family members contribute to the
list of things to be thankful for, then display some of them.
Gratitude journaling is one exercise that can be fun (and healing)

Today’s Exercise:

On the top of your page list a person or situation that has hurt you
or that you are still hanging onto. Write down the different feelings
that come up. Tell this person, or situation on paper how this has
effected you. After you have done this make a list of 3 blessings
that have come from this situation three positives that you have
taken from it. Give yourself permission to forgive this person. Bless
the situation for what it taught you , then release it and free
yourself.

Does this mean directing our thoughts will make our lives simple all
the time and that nothing “bad” will ever happen? Of course not. Life
will always have its little pitfalls, but through controlling and
directing the energy we put out, we make our lives easier. With this
effort, our minds become clearer enabling us to remain focused on
that which truly matters.

Remember also, that like attracts like. If your thoughts are mostly
negative,most of what you receive and perceive will be negative as
well.

Today’s Exercise:

Today be mindful of your thoughts. Seemingly random
thoughts can hold a lot of power. Make an effort to direct your
thoughts in a positive manner in order to restore balance.
At the end of the day note anything you learned through being more
observant of your thoughts. What were the proportions of negative to
positive?

How often did you catch yourself in negative self-talk? etc.. What
you observe today may surprise you!

There are a lot of dream sabotagers out there that many use as an
excuse to let go of their dreams: fear, lack of time, not enough
money, and the list goes on. In a society conditioned towards
instant gratification, it can become easy to lose sight of long term
possibilities. With every great dream comes the innovation to work
through obstacles if enough effort is put forth. It is important to
remember that dreams are a vital part of life. They push us to
become who we truly are, and to express ourselves as individuals.

Today’s Exercise:

Reflect on dreams of the past you may have lost sight of. How can
you reestablish this part of your being? What would you really like
to accomplish in this life? What are your unique talents and
attributes you have to offer? Work on keeping your dreams alive.

Those who take the pessimists view receive more negativity in feelings
of loss, lack, and fear because that is where their thoughts and
energy are directed. Need some more blessings in your life? Focus on
the ones you already have.

Today’s Exercise:

Right now, before moving on to the next daily activity name 20 things
you are blessed with right now at this very moment.
Write them down if you are able. Focus on these 20 things for the
rest of your day. When your thoughts start to turn to what you don’t
have, pull them back to your 20 blessings, add to them as you are
able. See how deeply enriched you feel at the end of this day. Repeat
as necessary.
