Mijn gebed voor vandaag

 
 
Here God, help mij
 om me niet te ergeren aan frustrerende onderbrekingen die mij afhouden van de dingen die ik meen te moeten doen.
 Geef mij geduld.
Help mij om m’n ik-gerichte geldingsdrang aan de kant te schuiven
 en me open te stellen voor alles wat U wilt dat ik vandaag doe. 

Leer mij ongewenste onderbrekingen te zien als onverwachte mogelijkheden! 
Amen.

  Als die standvastigheid ook daadwerkelijk blijkt, zult u volmaakt en volkomen zijn, zonder enige tekortkoming (Jacobus 1 vers 4).

With God All Things Are Possible

With God All Things Are Possible


Genesis 18:13 And the LORD said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old?
14 Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.
Job 42:1 Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
2 I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee.

Jeremiah 32:16 Now when I had delivered the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed unto the LORD, saying,
17 Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:
18 Thou shewest lovingkindness unto thousands, and recompensest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: the Great, the Mighty God, the LORD of hosts, is his name,
19 Great in counsel, and mighty in work: for thine eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men: to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:
20 Which hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even unto this day, and in Israel, and among other men; and hast made thee a name, as at this day;
21 And hast brought forth thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with great terror;
22 And hast given them this land, which thou didst swear to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey;
23 And they came in, and possessed it; but they obeyed not thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do: therefore thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them:
24 Behold the mounts, they are come unto the city to take it; and the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans, that fight against it, because of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken is come to pass; and, behold, thou seest it.
25 And thou hast said unto me, O Lord GOD, Buy thee the field for money, and take witnesses; for the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
26 Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah, saying,
27 Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?
28 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and he shall take it:
29 And the Chaldeans, that fight against this city, shall come and set fire on this city, and burn it with the houses, upon whose roofs they have offered incense unto Baal, and poured out drink offerings unto other gods, to provoke me to anger.

Matthew 19:23 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
25 When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?
26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

Mark 9:20 And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.
21 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.
22 And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.
23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

Mark 10:23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?
27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

Mark 14:32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray.
33 And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy;
34 And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here, and watch.
35 And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.
36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.

Luke 1:34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.
37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.

Luke 18:22 Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
23 And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.
24 And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
25 For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?
27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.

fly away;
you will never get that change again.

"I call heaven and earth to witness against you today,

So choose life in order that you may live, you and your descendants,
by loving the Lord Jehovah, your God, by obeying His voice, and by holding fast to Him."

door Zijn stem te gehoorzamen,
en door aan hem gehecht te blijven. „

Believe that moves stones


"I do not ask to walk smooth paths nor bear an easy load.
I pray for strength and fortitude to climb the rock-strewn road.
Give me such courage and I can scale the hardest peaks alone,
and transform every stumbling block into a stepping stone."
- Gale Brook Burket

Believe your beliefs and doubt your doubts.
- F. F. Bosworth


Faith enables us to move through the storms carrying our calm with us.
- J. Holmes

Faith makes it possible, not easy.
- Sally Nguyen


"You also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood,
offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
For in Scripture it says: 'See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone,
and the one who trusts in him will never be put to shame.'
Now to you who believe, this stone is precious."
1 Peter 2:5-7

I like to take the backpack of the faith
and I will continue my journey
to the Kingdom of God.
I ask you God to be near me always
and to help me further on the way.

Dutch version / Nederlandse versie > Geloof dat stenen verplaatst

Geloof dat stenen verplaatst


"Ik vraag niet om gladde paden te lopen, noch een gemakkelijk lading te dragen.
Ik bid voor kracht en moed om de rotsen bezaaide weg te beklimmen.
Geef mij zulke moed dat ik de hardste pieken alleen aan kan,
en transformeer elke struikelblok in een opstapje."
- Gale Brook Burket

"Heb geloof in je geloof en twijfel aan de twijfels die je hebt."
- F. F. Bosworth


"Geloof maakt het voor ons mogelijk om ons in stormen met kalmte te bewegen."

"Geloof maakt het mogelijk, niet makkelijk."
- Sally Nguyen

"U ook, net als levende stenen,
gebouwd tot een geestelijk huis om een heilig priesterschap te zijn
geestelijke offers offerend aanvaardbaar voor God door Jezus Christus.
Daar het in de Schrift zegt:" Zie, Ik leg in Sion een steen, een gekozen en kostbare hoeksteen,
en degene die in hem vertrouwt zal nooit beschaamd worden.
Nu aan u die geloven, is dit een kostbare steen."
1 Petrus 2:5-7

Graag neem ik de rugzak van het geloof op
en wil ik mijn reis verder zetten
naar het Koninkrijk van God.
Ik vraag U God om mij steeds nabij te zijn
en verder op weg te helpen.

Alle dingen zijn mogelijk

Meer dan 120 miljoen Amerikanen hebben Barack Obama tot president verkozen. Hij is het levende bewijs dat alles mogelijk blijkt te zijn in een land dat iedereen de mogelijkheid geeft om zich te beteren.
Het Christadelphian tijdschrift Glad Tidings heeft het in haar recente nummer over dit gebeuren en over William Morgan uit Noord Wales en zijn Welshe Bijbelvertaling.

Vindt het hier > All Things are Possible
It should encourage all of us to see that life offers us all great possibilities, whatever our background and our circumstances. Over the years many people have made similar achievements to those of Mr Obama, even if they were less widely publicised.
...
However difficult things might be and however hard life is for us, God can do what would otherwise be impossible. He can save us from our sins and give us the hope of everlasting life in a perfect world.
