GOD’S PLAN FOR US
Does God have a plan for us?
What is God's plan for each of us?
Women are important in the redemption plan of God.
- Who asked Jesus to make His first miracle? A woman.
- Who did Jesus Appear to for the first time after the resurrection? To a woman.
- Who was the first disciple? Tabita.
God has work to be done for each of us and the biggest grace is that we can also ask for rsalvation and everything else we need for us and our families.
“Every wise woman builds her house, but the foolish one tears it down with her own hands.” (Proverbs 14,verse1)
To build your house may be the biggest responsability that you have as a woman. Imagine how this house that you are building should look like. If you want do the project of the house that you want. After you finish the project you will realise that you decide when the building starts. What you have to realise especially is that the beauty and the stability of your house depends on the foundation and on the resistence of the precious stones in it.If the foundation is Christ(the rock) your house and my house have the chance of standing on a good foundation. Do we really think attentively with what kind of stones we build, which one of the stones is the most important one? Is it not Love? Can I do everything around the houise from morning till night with love, with kindness, with goodness? I think these are the stones that will hold my house from shaking in a way that it will be visible for those around me as well. By acting this way with the ones in my house, people will also see my goodness and kindness towards the ones from outside my house, with my neighbours, my fellow men. It is important to take in consideration that maybe my neighbours or my colleagues will never read a Bible. Then YOUR LIFE AND MY LIFE COULD BE THE ONLY BIBLE THAT SOME PEOPLE READ!
Our family Retreat at Baisoara
The Family Retreat for People with Disabilities and their Families
took place at Baisoara, on November 9-14, 2014
Simona Sipos shares some impressions from this family retreat:
As a new member of the service network, the first trip with the people from Caritatea was an unforgettable experience.
The atmosphere, the nice weather, the view which leaves you speechless, and especially the people who took part at the retreat made the four days I spent in Baisoara to be truly memorable.
Perhaps most would think it was just a recreational camp. Well, it was in part a relaxing time, but more than that, it was a time in which I learnt valuable life lessons, I listened to profound experiences, I learned that suffering is a way to get us closer to God, a way in which He speaks.
It was a time in which I was able to talk to God in prayer, a time in which I praised Him through songs, a time in which I was enriched by people who had the gift to show Him to us through Scriptures.
It felt like being part of a family with those from Caritatea, I was welcomed with open arms and with joy. The accommodation, the food, the staff were all exceptional.
Also, the delight I read on the faces of beneficiaries surpassed any expectations. I could see their joy and gratitude for the simple fact that they could take part in the retreat, and also for the fact that they were able to be actively involved in the activities.
I thank God for the joy that He gave me by making me a part of this great team.
