All we need is Him

Daniel 10:18-19

18 Again the one who looked like a man touched me and gave me strength. 19 "Do not be afraid, O man highly esteemed," he said. "Peace! Be strong now; be strong." When he spoke to me, I was strengthened and said, "Speak, my lord, since you have given me strength."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It takes real life to understand Daniel’s brokenness.
Just yesterday I cried to my Lord about human suffering.
Look around and you’ll see how many people hurt.
If it doesn’t break your heart to see your fellow men living in fear, stress, and loneliness…I don’t think you’re truly alive.
The curious thing is that only those who have lived them really know what those torments are all about.
Perhaps you’ve been spared from them yourself. Praise God!
But I haven’t…and now that I’ve moved beyond a victim mentality, now that I’ve grown tired of crying for the milk that’s right next to me, I’ve realized there’s a purpose for it all.
Never despair in your despair.
Know that God has a divine purpose running through your veins.
That precious life you’ve been given, when lived in Faith, is a diamond being brought to excellence.
Don’t give up. Receive the command of your Lord and be strong.
He’s not asking for anything you can’t possibly accomplish.
He’ll give you everything you need to face this battle and win.

Remember: We’re more than conquerors in Christ who strengthens us.

Be blessed!

Your sis that loves you,

Janet.

Dear daughter:

May this 2007 be the defining year it promises to be for you and your family. May the great Universal Divinity be with you and all God's blessings as well. You already have my love, and I know some other will follow... God bless you

Dear Janet,

Those are truly blessed words from the heart. My pride in you grows more every day. I hope your well and see you soon.

As we know in life things are ever changing and we never know why somhing may happen. I do know that love powers all we do, see and touch.

All things are by his will and somtimes things happen to good people so they can learn a lesson that will never be forgotten.

May the Lord bless you and keep you everyday of your life. Sempre Iluminada por ele.

Love,
Fabio Pace & Porthos
