Paul Washer (via proclaimingthetruth)
poor in spirit = you think you are not saved but you strive to do the will of the Lord. Mourns over sin = you´re angry and sad because of your wrongful actions. he/she is gentle = you do not like to fight you like peace . he/she hungers and thirsts for righteousness = You always want to do what is right. At times you fall but you get back up there and you stand for what is right in God . He/She is merciful = You offer forgiveness for those who tresspassed against you even though when they don´t deserve it . He/She has a pure heart = It doesn´t please you to see wrong doings, like the ones people commit nowadays and you fight really hard against your own selfish desires so that you won´t fall from GODS grace so that in a way you remain loyal . He/She is a peacemaker = You hate to fight , you dislike divition, such things like a family being torn apart or brothers turning against each other . It kills you to see it and you pray for it to stop and so God can come between them in a such a tremendous manner that those two individuals can come again to each other and love one another and forgive one another . He/She is marked by persecution = You doing the most absolute right thing and people or let me come into better terms. THE WORLD, DISLIKES YOU AND STABS YOU IN THE BACK AND TURN AWAY FROM YOU . Then you my friend, my brother , my sister . Elderly man , Elderly woman are a true disciple of the LIVING GOD.
If you lack one or two of these things don´t worry pray to God and if things don´t pull through the way you wanted them to and you keep on trying . Fear not . JESUS sees that and loves you so much for it because despise the fact that you can´t seem to succeed at meet your goal and you still keep on trying .. Then my friend.. GOD LOVES THAT.
God wants us to have an intimate relationship with him, doesn’t need us to be perfect. Just needs us to acknowledge He is God and is merciful, forgiving, and our Father<3
IT DOESN´T MATTER IF YOU HAVE A TERRIBLE VOICE AND YOU SING FOR THE LIVING GOD ! IF YOU HAVE A TERRIBLE VOICE AND YOU DO NOT KNOW AND STILL SING FOR GOD, HE SEES THAT YOU ENJOY DOING IT AND HE SEES THAT JOY IN YOUR HEART AND THAT IS WHAT TRULY COUNTS! AND IF YOU DO KNOW THEN GREAT IT STILL COUNTS ! CARRY ON ! =D

STROKE: Remember The 1st Three Letters… S.T..R …
My friend sent this to me …and encouraged me to post it and spread the word. I agree. If everyone can remember something this simple, we could save some folks.
STROKE IDENTIFICATION:
During a party, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine and just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. (they offered to call ambulance)
They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food - while she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening. Ingrid’s husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00pm , Ingrid passed away.)
She had suffered a stroke at the party . Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid would be with us today.
Some don’t die. They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead. It only takes a minute to read this…
STROKE IDENTIFICATION:
A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke…totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.
RECOGNIZING A STROKE
Remember the ‘3’ steps, STR . Read and Learn!
Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster.
The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.
Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions :
S * Ask the individual to SMILE ..
T * = TALK. Ask the person to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (eg ‘It is sunny out today’).
R * Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS .
If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call the ambulance and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.
NOTE : Another ‘sign’ of a stroke is
1. Ask the person to ‘stick’ out their tongue.
2. If the tongue is ‘crooked’, if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke.
A prominent cardiologist says if everyone who gets this status shares it; you can bet that at least one life will be saved…….This seems important!

Never were sweeter words spoken to a guilty man on death row.
“Today you will be with me in paradise.”
-John Piper
Luke 23:43
Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.” NIV
And Jesus replied, “I assure you, today you will be with me in paradise.” NLT
And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise. KJV
Unquestionably! No one can read the Gospels without feeling the actual presence of Jesus. His personality pulsates in every word. No myth is filled with such life.
