food for thought

wisdom thoughts by ps. steve penny (wave church - virginia beach)

- the problem that infurious u the most is the one that God has called u to solve
- the secret of ur future is hidden in ur daily routine
- intolerance of ur present creates ur future
- those that cannot increase u will eventually decrease u
- u'll never leave where u r 'till u decide where u wanna be
- when fatique walks in, faith walks out
- when u discover ur assignment, u discover ur enemy
- what u repetelly hear, u'll eventually believe
- what u respect u'll attract
- men decide their habits, n ur habits decide ur future
- the proof of desire is pursuit (fav!!)
- when God wants to bless u, He puts a person in ur life. when the devil wants to curse u, he puts a person in ur life
- never discuss ur problems w someone who is incapable to solve it

for such a time as this.

mta coisa acontece em 12 dias
de queda drástica da temperatura to gravação do i heart (or whatever it was),
últimas semanas have been quite epics!


li 'one night w the king' in the last 2 days devido a minha cold e a consequente falta de vontade de sair de casa...
but what a book!!
recomendadíssimo!!

"when u r in the presence of the King of kings, destiny - not just ur own but the world's - can change in the twinkling of an eye."

"i never forget those moments w the King of kings, not ever. today, i suppose i am the most expendable person u could imagine. an old infirm man. one good whack of a bandit's sword would do me in. yet i remember, w/out vanity i hope, that i have stood in His presence n found favor w Him. n no one can ever take the joy, the knowledge, the certainty of that away."

"i hoped as much 4 u, dear. but u know, i learned long ago, after the death of our families, that sometimes we have to live w far less than our highest wish. yet even, G-d walks through he disappointment w us. we r not second-class persons to Him just because our lives have taken us to some low places - some of them of our own making, some of them not. i believe even then He can do mighty things through us. He can reveal a ourpose 4 our suffering. your story is not over, hadassah. in fact, i'm convinced it has hardly begun."

"but i could not afford to spend time pining 4 the past time in my life. the present demanded all i could give. n more."

"influence flows from intimacy - true influence based on the deepest trust flows out of the richest intimacy."

"...always remember that favor can restore in a day what was stolen over a lifetime."



no mais, mto fuel, mto voltage, mto youth, mto kids, mtos offices, mtas calls, mtos carparks, mtos tutorials, mats classes, mtos espressos (short, strong n powerful!), mtas chapels, mta gnt nova, mtos emails, mtos txts, mtos packs, mtas piadinhas, mta roupa p lavar, mtos - mas mtos - coffees, mtos chicletes, mtos rdgs, mtos cgs, mta chuva, mto vento, mta chuva de vento, mto crombie, e mais um pouco de café.
e lots of faith, hope n LOVE.
coz in the end, thats all that matters :)







thats all folks.
much love.

Jesus, lover of my soul
All consuming fire is in Your gaze
Jesus, I want you to know
I will follow you all my days
For no one else in history is like you
And history itself belongs to you
Alpha and Omega,
You have loved me
And I will share eternity with You
It's all about You, Jesus
And all this is for You
For Your glory and your fame
It's not about me
As if You should do things my way
You alone are God
And I surrender to your ways
(Paul Oakley)


beijos, diário.
a gnt se vê.

did the capitain of the titanic cry?

hoje foi dia de connect
depois de combined staff mtg - funniest ever :)
e 4hrs de robert fergusson - epic!
e a gente tava conversando sobre algumas 'hard questions' que a gente tem que face
not only as leaders, but as people, as christians
so, here they are:

1. who r my cose friends n who do i allow to sharpen me?
2. am i teachable? how do i respond to criticism?
3. who am i personally leading to Jesus?
4. how well do i handle my finances?
5. is this my opportunity or im just waiting 4 it?
6. does my timetable reflect a priority 4 ppl, Jesus, Bible n prayer?
7. what attitude do i have when submiting to a decision that i dont like/understand?
8. who threatens me n how do i handle other ppl's success?
9. if numbers tell a story, what story r they telling?
10. what words would a person use to describe me?
11. do i really care 4 what im doing? where is my heart?
12. am i approachable?


they all really challenged me
am not sure if i could pick only one
but i think that now i have to work them out
not only sit n think about it
but live it out
n see/dream/experience/tell/do/live greater things!
n value my dear 24hrs
e vo vivendo um dia d cd vez p eu n me perder :)

e eh isso ai
preciso achar meu timetable
