I came back from Germany last week Tuesday with brother and friends. 2000 km drive to Estonia. I was drinving little bit in Poland at night, I had a hard time to keep my eyes open. Its great to see my dear family and friends. My mum got a car, and is very satisfied. Her handicraft was already waiting for taking on the market. This last weeks and coming week is busy time with preparation willow for handicraft...boiling, peeling, drying and storing.
This weekend I was on Estonian-Latvian music festival. It was powerful!I had a great time with dear friend J. We came up to talk about vision in life. If there is no vision then there is no mission...thats how it is...

Success in any line demands definite aim.
We were brought into existence because we were needed. How sad the thought that if we stand on the wrong side, in the ranks of the enemy, we are lost to the design of our creation. We are disappointing our Redeemer; the powers He designed for His service are used to oppose His grace and matchless love. (ST, Aprill 22, 1903 par. 5)

I want to share Bible verses that were uplifting for me this morning, from Job 22:21-28

Acquaint now thyself with him,and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.

Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mounth, and lay up his words in thine heart.

If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles.

Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks.

Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver.

For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God.

Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.

Germany is green

On Monday I will travel back home and see this green colour in nature from the beginning. Spring is coming later in Estonia.

Integrity

In early life, just as they were passing from youth to manhood, Joseph and Daniel were separated from their homes and carried as captives to heathen land. especially was Joseph subject to the temptations that attend great changes of fortune. In his father's home a tenderly cherished child; in the house of Potiphar a slave, then a confidant and companion; a man of affairs, educated by study, observation, contact with men; in Pharaos's dungeon a prisoner of state, condemned unjustly, without hope of vindication or prospect of release; called at a great crisis to the leadership of the nation - what enabled him to preserve his integrity? (CC 366.3)

Loyalty to God, faith in the Unseen, was Joseph's anchor. In this lay the hiding of his power...(CC366.4)

By their wisdom and justice, by the purity and benevolence of their daily life. Joseph and Daniel proved themselves true to the principles to their ealry training, true to Him whose representative they were. (CC366.5)

Conversion

That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them. Mark 4:12

In the converted person self - is not struggling for recognition...If his motives, words, or actions are misunderstood or misrepresented, he takes no offense, but pursues the even tenor of his way. He is kind and thoughtful, humble in his opinion of himself, yet full of hope, always trusting in the mercy and love of God. - Christ's Object Lessons, p. 102

The greatest Gift promised

At all times and in all places, in all sorrows and in all afflictions, when the outlook seems dark and the future perplexing, and we feel helpless and alone, the Comforter (Holy Spirit) will be sent in answer to the prayer of faith. Circumstances may separate us from every earthly friend; but no circumstance, no distance, can separate us from the heavenly Comforter. Wherever we are, wherever we may go, He is always at our right hand to support, sustain, uphold, and cheer. - The Desire of Ages, pp. 669, 670

Spring time pesto

I love to start spring with fresh herb pesto and if possible with juice fasting. Its a great immune system boosting.

• Nettle 80% (Rich in iron. It contains silica ( in a readily absorbable form) extramely important mineral for cell rejuvination. Silica is essential for healthy skin, hair, teeth and to protect against baldness, infection, mental fatique, nervous exhaustion)



• Dandelion 10% (strong blood cleanser, best for anemics)



• Chickweed 5% -25%(used for relieveing constipation and kidney complains, against coughs, circulatory tonic)



• fresh 1/2 lemon juice



• salt



• olive oil



• 1-5 cloves of garlic

Mash herbs with salt until fine then squeeze garlic into the mixture, and add olive oil and lemon juice. Fits to every savoury food. Gives all the nutrients and vitamins that body needs .

I went for a walk with the Bible and had a wonderful afternoon in the nature...sun was just so warm, and I felt glimpses of God's love and care.

I read about how Hanna had a sincere but powerful prayer. And God heard her and saw her heart decire. She gave birth to Samuel, and gave him already in very young age to God's service.

"Young as he was when brought to minister in the tabernacle, Samuel had even then duties to perform in the service of God, according to his capacity. These were at first very humble, and not always very pleasant; but they were performed to the best of his ability, and with a willing heart. His religion was carried into every duty of life. He regarded himself as God's servant, and his work as God's work. His efforts were accepted, because they were prompted by love to God and a sincere desire to do His will. It was thus that Samuel became a co-worker with the Lord of heaven and earth. And God fitted him to accomplish work for Israel." (PP 573,574)

Prudent

Prudence is growing in knowledge. It is making the effort to learn something new and using that information or skill, whether you enjoy that skill or not. God describes the prudent in the Bible in book of Proverbs 18:15 "The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge." In Proverbs 16:21 its says "The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and sweetness of the lips increaseth learning." Fear causes us to pay attention to what God says, knowing that he is very serious in his blessings and his curisngs.

James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

Training the mind

Colaborating with God - moral, spiritual power increases. Will obtain an experience of the highest value to ourselves. In forgetfulness of self, we will grow in grace. By training mind in this direction, we will learn how to bear burdens for Jesus and will realize the blessedness of service and soon the time will come when "they that sow in tears shall reap in joy" DG Shapter 1
