Blessed
is the man who finds wisdom, the man who gains understanding, for she is more
profitable than silver and yields better returns than gold. She is more
precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her.
Proverbs
3:13-15
Beloved family and esteemed
friends of the Blog, today I would like to give you some advice for life; some
of them are anonymous and some of them are intertwined with my own, but all of
them are worthy of our attention. I found them while looking through my
archives and I am sure that they will be of benefit to us all.
Problems are not eternal, there is always a solution.
What we cannot fix is death, but this is God’s will.
We will always find loud
and boisterous people, this is what cowards too when they know they are wrong.
We will always find people who want to blame us for their failures to quiet
their conscience. Save your good memories for the bad times. Listen and tell
what you feel only to those whom are trustworthy. Learn to feel what you are
worth, dream what you want, and understand that God loves you so much that you
lack nothing. We need to be strong and learn to get up when we stumble because
we must understand that after the storm there is calm, knowing that God protects
us. Don’t forget that this life is short and fleeting, so live it correctly and
happily.
Now I invite you to analyze these phrases: Before
arguing, take a breath. Before you speak, listen. Before you criticize, examine
yourself. Before hurting someone, feel it yourself. Before you give up, try.
Before dying, repent. Before writing, think.
Remember, the best relationship is not that which
unites perfect people; instead it is when everyone learns to live with
everyone’s defects and learns to admire their qualities.
He who doesn’t value what he has, will later lament
losing it. He who does evil will one day receive his due. If you want to be
happy, make those around you happy. If you want to receive, give.
Surround
yourself with good people and be one of them. Don’t forget that sometimes we make the happiest memories with those
whom we least expect it. Don’t ruin your present because of a past that
doesn’t have a future. A believer in JESUS CHRIST knows how to maintain his
life in order. Manage to thrown on a smile even when your eyes are full of
tears. We never know what will happen, and this is a good thing because if we
could predict everything that would happen to us then life wouldn’t be worth
living. If everything was like you want it to be and if everything was certain
then you wouldn’t be a person made by God but instead a machine. Don’t forget
that God is so good that He saw our sadness and problems and said, “The hard
times over now that I’ve come to give you life and life in abundance.”
Remember wisdom is giving
good fruit with our talents and recognizing that we are special. Those who are
wise are people that love God and their neighbors; this is great commandment
and all the others come from this one. The fulfilment of the law is in this
great commandment which is summed up in one word: LOVE. Practice it because
our Creator expects it from us.
With love,
Maria Fanny Agudelo
