♕ Today's Promise: "However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace." Acts 20:24

Dear Brides,
The Lord works in amazing ways not just in our lives but in the life of other people. The principle of Win without words applies for all circumstances and relationships and this is exactly why I would like to Praise Him today and all the days of my life.
Due to our country's weather, we have rainy season from April to December, being September and October the rainiest months which is when we risk most to have flows and water inside houses.
A few days ago, it rained extremely hard kind of a storm in the area where my mum lives and the level of the water coming to her backyard increased to the same level of the house floor. At the moment, she got so nervous that she phoned me to tell me what was going on. My car is at the garage so I could not get to her to make her company, however I told her to keep calm and pray to the Lord to stop the rain so the water could not come in. She was a bit confused of course, because she was expecting an earthly solution which I have learned not to do, but I was able to listen her in peace. After 15 minutes, I phoned her again and the rain stopped without any consequences.
As it is usual, we have rain every afternoon-evening, so 2 days ago, it was raining very hard again at home so I phoned her to make sure she was doing fine. While talking to her and without telling me, she passed the phone to a neighbor who lives now in a different area but was there with her, they were happy. It rained hard but again no consequences. So when I asked our neighbor if my mum was calmed, she told me that although it was scary the sound of the rain and thunders, my mum asked her to pray together to the Lord to stop the rain and in the case the water came inside the house, that the Lord will also make sure to take the water out because the Lord knows she has no energy to do it.
For those who have read my previous praises, you know that my Beloved HH (Heavenly Husband) has worked amazingly in my mum´s heart. She called me a religious, fanatic and pharisee person at the beginning of my journey but now, the Lord has turning her heart to Him and she is getting closer to him little by little.
Dear Brides, we are all called to work in our first ministry which is our family and working on this has nothing to do with telling people if they are wrong or preaching them at every single moment when we think they are violating God´s principles. We have been called to live in harmony and to use the word of our daily testimony so others can see Him on us. It also means not being afraid of Praising our Beloved for every trial, blessing and miracle that happen in our life.
I have heard many Brides who found the Lord that it is so difficult to see changes in other people around them, but I am coming today to share with you that with God nothing is Impossible. If you were able to find the Lord and make Him your first love, the Lord is almighty and He will touch the hearts of all around you if you continue obeying Him and Praising Him.
"I appeal to you, brothers and sisters,[a] in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought." 1 Corinthians 1:10
