Your Gospel in Latvian -  John 3: 16 as expressed in the Latvian language.   Bringing The Good News in your Language.
Jāņa 3:16
Jauns dzīvais tulkojums
16 “Jo tā Dievs pasauli mīlējis: Viņš devis savu vienpiedzimušo Dēlu, lai katrs, kas Viņam tic, nepazustu, bet iegūtu mūžīgo dzīvību.
lūgšana par Pestīšanu. Dārgais Kungs, es atvainojos par to, kā esmu dzīvojis savu dzīvi. Par manu rīcību...Mani vārdi, gan rakstīti, gan runāti, manas domas un attieksme, mani nepildītie solījumi un veids, kā esmu pievīlis cilvēkus.
Lūdzu piedod man.
Lūdzu, palīdziet man nožēlot grēkus – novērsties no visām nepareizajām lietām manā dzīvē. Lūdzu, tagad ienāc manā dzīvē ar savu Garu, lai mūžīgi būtu mans Kungs un Glābējs, un palīdzi man būt tādam, kādu tu vēlies, lai es būtu. Āmen

Community Element - Brexit help with Finances

In the second of our Community Elements shows we tackle the often thorny issue of finances. This is especially poignant at a  time where families and especially those of foreign nationals will be weighing up financial security.
The BBC published an on line article about things which will change post Brexit and things which won't immediately change.
To start the ball rolling, we were contacted by bestspy.co.uk who wrote an article on savings.  Do get in contact and let us know how you approach savings and finances.  Are you able to save?  Do bills scare you?  There are organisations who can help both in Aberdeen and beyond. 
The range of benefits and government allowances can be very confusing to the uninitiated and less tech savvy people.  Tax Credits and  Universal Credits are two such examples.
Many people would be confused and worried but there are people and organisations who can help.

A Thought From South Africa - ' Thanking God For The Gift Of the Holy Spirit'

Morning devotion 🍽☕🍒
*THANKING GOD FOR THE GIFT OF THE SPIRIT *
🙏Lord, today I want to thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit in my life. Jesus, You said You had to go away so that the Helper, the Holy Spirit would come. And now, because I have put my trust in You, this gift and access to the power of the Holy Spirit has been given to me.
🙏I find it difficult to fully grasp and understand it all, but I thank You for equipping me and giving me the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is my Counselor, Helper and Teacher. The Holy Spirit empowers me with supernatural strength and power to do things that I could not do on my own.
🙏I am so thankful that I am never alone. Jesus, You walk with me. My Heavenly Father is always with me and I am empowered by the Holy Spirit. Thank You, Lord, for providing for me in so many ways.
🙏I am sorry for the times that I have grieved the Holy Spirit in my life and instead have tried to live out of my own strength and power. Please forgive me. Help me to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit and to obey Your promptings in my life. I am so thankful that I do not have to live this life on my own. Thank You for providing what I need today. Amen.
📖 “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.”‭‭John‬ ‭14:26‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
Enjoy His presenceShalom

A Thought From South Africa - 'Thy Kingdom Come' (By Francis Taylor)

Thy Kingdom ComeBy Frances TaylorLuke 17:20-21And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is withinYou.There are always passages that we read and don’t stop to think about.  This one is sandwiched between the healing of the ten lepers and the search for signs of the end of the world.  Let’s think about this – the Kingdom of God is within you.  Aren’t we always asking for God’s Kingdom to come?  So, what does this mean to you?  It’s kind of surprising to read this and find out that what you’ve been looking for you already have!  Now, all we need to do is figure out what that means.  What do you imagine the Kingdom to be like?  I think in terms of love, peace, and connecting with those who have died.  Some of this I know I can have here.  I can choose to love and not hate.  I can choose to be peaceful amidst the chaos of the world around me.  I can choose to spend time with those I love, and talk to those who have gone before and ask them to pray for me and for those that they loved on earth.  I believe that the Kingdom is both now and still to come.  I think we practice for what will be and we do that mainly by loving.  If God is love and when we live in God, we live in love.  If we will be filled with love in the Kingdom, I want my container – my spirit – to be as large as it can be to hold all the love it can.  Now, I may be a bit fanciful, but Jesus didn’t fill us in as to how the Kingdom is both within us and to come, so I guess I can picture it the way I want.  Fill in your picture and see how you answer the question for yourself. Prayer Lord, how much you want us to be with you.  You have given us both the promise of the Kingdom to come and the message that it is within us now.  Help us to build your Kingdom here on earth for all to see. Amen.

A Thought From South Africa - "Thank Him Every Day"

Thank Him Every Day
👆When Jesus told us to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread,” He was teaching us dependence upon Him for daily provision (Matthew 6:11).
👉Even our Lord paused to give thanks before breaking the bread in John 6.👉Whatever words you use, learn to thank God for giving you this day your daily bread.👏Be thankful…
Offer to God thanksgiving… Come before His presence with thanksgiving… Enter into His gates with thanksgiving… In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. — Colossians 3:15; Psalm 50:14; Psalm 95:2; Psalm 100:4; 1 Thessalonians 5:18
👆This is one of God’s commands for healthy living. The Creator of the soul is the Master Psychologist. He knows that thanksgiving is not only appropriate but therapeutic
🤔Are you thankful to God like it’s your job? ✋stop 🛑 for a moment and give thanks! 🙌
🤷🏻‍♀What are you thanking Him for? As the year comes to an end Take our time to say thank you lord for this far you have brought us 🙌
#Thankful heart
Remain Blessed
