Disabilities turned to abilities

We all have trials of different kinds. Watch this inspiring video about Patrick Hughes. 


‎"How would you describe your disabilities? " "- Not disabilities at all, more abilities..." 


What are your abilities?

"The Lord permits His people to be subjected to the fiery ordeal of temptation, not because He takes pleasure in their distress and affliction, but because this process is essential to their final victory. He could not, consistently with His own glory, shield them from temptation; for the very object of the trial is to prepare them to resist all the allurements of evil." - Ellen G. White, The Great Controversy p. 528

Epidemi - en tankeställare



Vad är värt någonting i livet egentligen? Din TV? Din dator? Din telefon? ....Kanske människor?

The Serenity Prayer

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.


The Serenity Prayer is a prayer written by Reinhold Niebuhr on July 1, 1943. Early in World War II, the prayer was printed on cards and distributed to the troops by the U.S.O. However, the prayer is reported to have been used before that date in Twelve-step programs for those recovering from hurts, habits, addictions and hang-ups.

Every good impulse comes from God

I am so happy that God reminds me, daily, of these words:

“We are required to take upon our necks the yoke of Christ, because every good impulse comes from the Spirit of God, and we are quickened to earnest effort for a higher life.” {ST, July 20, 1888 par. 10}

So, next time you get an impulse to do good, either it is to say something, or do something to somebody, use your mind and act.
