Save changes to untitled?

noreply@blogger.com (Ana-Maria) — Fri, 25 May 2012 16:20:00 +0000

Hmmmm...

We must save changes...if not, we will remain the same...we must save the changes...deep within us...in our souls and our minds...and refresh ourselves with the newest versions of ourselves...of what The Master teaches us...to practice what He teaches us...to live what He teaches us...Yes! We must save the changes...

To the untitled? ...

Yes, we must give this paint a name... There is a strong relationship between the changes and the name...when you save the changes, the name changes...it becomes useful...useful to the Master...

I am glad we all have a name...a known name by The Master...we are not "the untitled"...and we were like that from the beginning...He knew, and He knows our names...

So, let us be changed, shaped, renewed, "saved" with the new name, of the new version of ourselves...

Oh, Help!

Just don't

Te iubesc cu o iubire vesnica

noreply@blogger.com (Ana-Maria) — Sun, 24 Oct 2010 17:41:00 +0000

-„Domnul mi Se arata de departe: Te iubesc cu o iubire vesnica; de aceea îti pastrez bunatatea Mea!” Ieremia 31: 3 -

Stiai ca cea mai incredibila dragoste cunoscuta de cineva poate fi dragostea cu care tu îi iubesti pe altii? Aceasta este posibil doar prin dragostea necondiţionată si neschimbatoare a lui Dumnezeu.

Problema pe care o avem noi, oamenii nu este ca nu îl iubim pe Dumnezeu îndeajuns, ci ca nu-L lasam pe El sa ne iubeasca asa cum ne-a promis.

Ar fi atît de minunat sa întelegem cît de mult ne iubeste Dumnezeu, pentru ca abia atunci am fi eliberati de dezamagirea pe care o gasim în noi însine, de robia la care ne-a adus pacatul si de dorinta noastra de a ne revolta.

Dumnezeu cel omnipotent si puternic te iubeste! Dragostea Lui este vesnica si neschimbatoare. În versetul de astazi din cartea profetului Ieremia, ni se spune fiecaruia în parte: „Te iubesc cu o iubire vesnica.”

Daca te-ai îndoit vreodata asupra faptului ca Domnul te iubeste, te îndemn sa te uiti la cruce si sa-ti amintesti de dragostea pe care a manifestat-o El pentru tine, într-un mod atît de evident. Domnul Isus a fost acela care a definit şi a demonstrat dragostea Tatalui Ceresc pentru tine. Jertfa de la calvar este inima lui Dumnezeu care bate pentru tine. Te-a iubit îndeajuns cît sa paraseasca slava cereasca si sa-si ofere propriul sînge pentru salvarea ta.

Stii ca sîngele Domnul Isus este atît de pretios încît poate curata si sterge definitiv pacatul tau si ca a cucerit si învins moartea pentru tine? Sîngele Sau îti da puterea de a te simti liber si de a-i iubi pe ceilalti.

Sîngele Domnului si jertfa de la Golgota nu numai ca îti da pacea Tatalui, dar te si transforma într-un instrument de manifestare a acestei iubiri fata de cei care înca nu-L cunosc.

M51 whirlpool galaxy black hole

noreply@blogger.com (Ana-Maria) — Sun, 25 Apr 2010 15:08:00 +0000

The nucleus of the Whirlpool Galaxy (M51). The Cross marks the location of the black hole at the center of the galaxy. The cross was first interpreted as two dust rings circling the nucleus. It was later determined to simply be foreground dust lanes silhouetted by the active nucleus. Bright ionization cones can be seen extending perpendicular to the largest dust feature.

A black hole, surrounded by a ring of dust, is thought to exist at the heart of the spiral. The dust ring stands almost perpendicular to the relatively flat spiral nebula. A secondary ring crosses the primary ring on a different axis, a phenomenon that is contrary to expectations. A pair of ionization cones extend from the axis of the main dust ring.^[12]

ABOUT THIS IMAGE:

This image of the core of the nearby spiral galaxy M51, taken with the Wide Field Planetary camera (in PC mode) on NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, shows a striking , dark "X" silhouetted across the galaxy's nucleus. The "X" is due to absorption by dust and marks the exact position of a black hole which may have a mass equivalent to one-million stars like the sun. The darkest bar may be an edge-on dust ring which is 100 light-years in diameter. The edge-on torus not only hides the black hole and accretion disk from being viewed directly from earth, but also determines the axis of a jet of high-speed plasma and confines radiation from the accretion disk to a pair of oppositely directed cones of light, which ionize gas caught in their beam. The second bar of the "X" could be a second disk seen edge on, or possibly rotating gas and dust in MS1 intersecting with the jets and ionization cones.

11 Martie
-„Iosua a zis poporului: "Sfintiti-va, caci mîine Domnul va face lucruri minunate în mijlocul vostru."” Iosua 3:5 -

Dumnezeu doreste sa faca lucruri incredibile în viata ta, chiar lucruri care tie îti pot parea imposibil de realizat. Iar în versetul de azi exista dovada acestei afirmatii.

Problema descoperita la majoritatea crestinilor din zilele de azi este ca fiecaruia ne place sa stam într-o stare de confort si de siguranta. De obicei nu ne palce sa iesim din aceasta zona de confort, desi a fi crestin nu implica totdeauna confort si siguranta.

Dar pentru a putea merge pe urmele Sale, Dumnezeu ne cere deseori sa pasim afara din aceasta zona. Iar în momentul în care faci acest pas, nici nu stii ce lucruri minunate poate face Domnul Isus în si prin tine.

Daca în aceste momente crezi ca e practic imposibil ca Dumnezeu sa faca lucruri nemaipomenite prin viata ta, asculta-ma doar într-o singura privinta. Tot ceea ce trebuie sa împlinesti este sa faci acest prim pas al credintei. Dumnezeu nu-ti va cere niciodata sa faci lucruri pe care tu singur nu le-ai putea împlini. El îti da putere pentru tot ceea ce îti cere. El este cel care îti va trasa calea pe care trebuie sa mergi, îti va ghida pasii si va deschide drumul înaintea ta.

Astazi vreau sa te încurajez sa fii pregatit din punct de vedere spiritual, emotional si fizic pentru „aventurile” pe care ti le-a pregatit Dumnezeu. Fa-ti timp sa citesti si sa studiezi Cuvîntul lui Dumnezeu, sa îi vorbesti prin rugaciune si sa îl cauti zi de zi.

Iar, atunci cînd vei fi pus în fata a ceea ce pare imposibil, adu-ti aminte ceea ce ni se spune în Matei 6: 33: „Cautati mai întîi Împaratia lui Dumnezeu si neprihanirea Lui, si toate aceste lucruri vi se vor da pe deasupra.”

SA FII CREDINCIOS NU ÎNSEAMNA SA RAMÎI MEREU ÎN ZONA DE SIGURANTA!(misiune.ro)

"Am gasit pe David.. om dupa inima Mea" (Faptele Apostolilor 13:22)

Unele promisiuni de la Dumnezeu se împlinesc repede. Dar pentru altele, ca cea pe care Dumnezeu i-a facut-o lui David potrivit careia urma sa devina rege, trebuie sa te lupti, iebusitii controlau Ierusalimul si îl tachinau pe David spunând: "Sa nu intri aici" (2 Samuel 5:6). Pentru a înrautati si mai mult situatia, Ierusalimul era situat pe o ridicatura de câteva sute de metri deasupra armatei lui David.

Singurul drum în sus era printr-un bazin de apa prin care trebuiau sa treaca si apoi sa urce printr-un întuneric bezna. "Dar David a pus mâna pe cetatuia Sionului" (2 Samuel 5:7). Trebuie sa întelegi un lucru: daca va fi nevoie, Dumnezeu te va duce si prin mocirla pentru a te urca pe tron! Sa remarcam cuvintele "dar" si "a pus". Când te-ai afundat pâna la gât în probleme, iar dusmanul îti spune: "Nu vei reusi", încrede-te în Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu si spune: "Dar". Ridica-te prin credinta si proclama ceea ce ti-a promis Dumnezeu: "Dar aceia din popor, care vor cunoaste pe Dumnezeul lor, vor ramâne tari, si vor face mari ispravi" (Daniel 11:32). Dumnezeu îti poate arata cum sa exploatezi situatia pentru binele tau si spre gloria lui Dumnezeu.

Sa nu te astepti ca toata lumea sa se bucure de succesul tau. "Filistenii au aflat ca David fusese uns împarat peste Israel, si s-au suit toti sa-l caute" (2 Samuel 5:17). Va trebui sa te lupti ca sa-ti împlinesti destinul - dar va trebui sa te lupti si ca sa-l pastrezi. Nu te poti odihni pe vechile victorii. Cu fiecare noua batalie trebuie sa primesti instructiuni proaspete. "David a întrebat pe Domnul: "Sa ma sui împotriva Filistenilor? Îi vei da în mâinile mele?" Si Domnul i-a zis lui David: "Suie-te, caci voi da pe Filisteni în mâinile tale" (2 Samuel 5:19). Astazi, mergi înainte, stiind ca Dumnezeu este cu tine.(Cuvantul lui Dumnezeu pentru astazi)

Self Discipline

Self-Discipline

June 5th, 2005 by Steve Pavlina

This week I’ll be blogging a series on self-discipline. New posts on this topic will appear every day Mon-Fri. I’ve also added a new self-discipline category.

I’ve already written about 20 pages on self-discipline for my upcoming book, including what it is and how to develop it. I’ll share some of those ideas in this series, focusing on what I call the five pillars of self-discipline.

The Five Pillars of Self-Discipline

The five pillars of self-discipline are: Acceptance, Willpower, Hard Work, Industry, and Persistence. If you take the first letter of each word, you get the acronym “A WHIP” — a convenient way to remember them, since many people associate self-discipline with whipping themselves into shape.

Each day of the series, I’ll explore one of these pillars, explaining why it’s important and how to develop it. But first a general overview….

What Is Self-Discipline?

Self-discipline is the ability to get yourself to take action regardless of your emotional state.

Imagine what you could accomplish if you could simply get yourself to follow through on your best intentions no matter what. Picture yourself saying to your body, “You’re overweight. Lose 20 pounds.” Without self-discipline that intention won’t become manifest. But with sufficient self-discipline, it’s a done deal. The pinnacle of self-discipline is when you reach the point that when you make a conscious decision, it’s virtually guaranteed you’ll follow through on it.

Self-discipline is one of many personal development tools available to you. Of course it is not a panacea. Nevertheless, the problems which self-discipline can solve are important, and while there are other ways to solve these problems, self-discipline absolutely shreds them. Self-discipline can empower you to overcome any addiction or lose any amount of weight. It can wipe out procrastination, disorder, and ignorance. Within the domain of problems it can solve, self-discipline is simply unmatched. Moreover, it becomes a powerful teammate when combined with other tools like passion, goal-setting, and planning.

Alte citate extrase: Being healthy is hard work. Finding and maintaining a successful relationship is hard work. Raising kids is hard work. Getting organized is hard work. Setting goals, making plans to achieve them, and staying on track is hard work.

To keep your muscles strong or your mind sharp, you need to challenge them. To do only what’s easy will lead to physical and mental flabbiness and very mediocre results, followed by a great deal of time and effort spent justifying why such flabbiness is OK, instead of stepping up and taking on some real challenges.

Tackling challenges builds character, just as lifting weights builds muscle. To avoid challenge is to abandon one’s character development.

Now it’s natural that we’ll tend to avoid what’s painful, so if we see challenge as purely painful, we’ll surely avoid it. But in so doing, we’re avoiding some very important character development, which by its very nature is often tremendously challenging. So we must learn to fall in love with challenge instead of fearing it, just as a bodybuilder can learn to love the pain of doing “one more rep” that tears down muscle fibers, allowing them to grow stronger. If you avoid the pain, you miss out on the growth. This is true both for building muscles and for building character.

You become accustomed to spending more time outside your comfort zone. Hard work is something you look forward to because you know that it will lead to tremendous growth. And you eventually develop the maturity and responsibility to understand that certain goals will never just flow into your life; they’ll only happen if you act as the driving force to bring them to fruition.

If you want to achieve some really big and interesting goals, you have to learn to fall in love with hard work. Hard work makes the difference. It’s what separates the children from the mature adults. You can keep living as a child and desperately hoping that life will always be easy, but then you’ll be stuck in a child-like world, working on other people’s goals instead of your own, waiting for opportunities to come to you instead of creating your own, and doing work that in the grand scheme of this world just isn’t important.

When you learn to embrace hard work instead of running from it, you gain the ability to execute on your big goals, no matter what it takes to achieve them.

You blast through obstacles that stop others who have less resolve. But what is it that gets you to this point? What gets you to embrace hard work?

Purpose.

When you live for a strong purpose, then hard work isn’t an option. It’s a necessity. If your life has no real purpose, then you can avoid hard work, and it won’t matter because you’ve decided that your life itself doesn’t matter anyway. So who cares if you work hard or take the easy road? But if you’ve chosen a significant purpose for your life, it’s going to require hard work to get there — any meaningful purpose will require hard work.

You have to admit to yourself then that the only way this purpose is going to be fulfilled is if you embrace hard work. And this is what takes you beyond fear and ego, beyond the sniveling little child who thinks that hard work is something to run away from. When you become driven by a purpose greater than yourself, you embrace hard work out of necessity. That child gets replaced by a mature adult who assumes responsibility for getting the job done, knowing that without total commitment and lots of hard work, it’s never going to happen.

Show me a person who avoids hard work, and I’ll show you someone who hasn’t found their purpose yet. Because anyone who knows their purpose will embrace hard work. They’ll pay the price willingly.

If you want to make a difference in the world, then hard work is the price. There are no shortcuts.

Purpose and hard work are buddies. Purpose is the why. Hard work is the how. Purpose is what turns labor into labor of love. It transmutes the pain of hard work into the higher level pleasure of dedication, commitment, resolve, and passion. It turns pain into strength, eventually to the point where you don’t notice the pain as much as you enjoy the strength.

Self-discipline requires that you develop the capacity to put in the time where it’s needed. A lot of messes are created when we refuse to put in the time to do what needs to be done — and to do it correctly. Such messes range from a messy desk or cluttered email inbox all the way down to an Enron or Worldcom. Big mess or small mess — take your pick. Either way a significant contributing factor is the refusal to do what needs to be done.

How many problems do you have on your to do list right now that can be solved with the simple application of industry? Sometimes you don’t need to be particularly creative or clever about it — a brute force solution will do. But it’s easy to get stuck in a pattern of wishing that a brute force solution wasn’t necessary. It’s tedious. It’s boring. It’s not that important anyway. And yet it still needs to be done.

Disciplining yourself to be industrious allows you to squeeze more value out of your time. Time is a constant, but your personal productivity is not. Some people will use the hours of their day far more efficiently than others.

Despite all the technology and gadgets we have available that can potentially make us more efficient, your personal productivity is still your greatest bottleneck. Don’t look to technology to make you more productive. If you don’t consider yourself productive without technology, you won’t be productive with it — it will only serve to mask your bad habits. But if you’re already industrious without technology, it can help you become even more so. Think of technology as a force multiplier — it multiplies what you already are.

Persistence is the ability to maintain action regardless of your feelings. You press on even when you feel like quitting.

When you work on any big goal, your motivation will wax and wane like waves hitting the shore. Sometimes you’ll feel motivated; sometimes you won’t. But it’s not your motivation that will produce results — it’s your action. Persistence allows you to keep taking action even when you don’t feel motivated to do so, and therefore you keep accumulating results.

If you’re growing at all as a human being, then you’re going to be a different person each year than you were the previous year. And if you consciously pursue personal development, then the changes will often be dramatic and rapid.

In order to make room for new goals, we have to delete or complete old ones.

Persistence of action comes from persistence of vision. When you’re super-clear about what you want in such a way that your vision doesn’t change much, you’ll be consistent in your actions. And that consistency of action will produce consistency of results.
