High-school

      A few days ago , school started .( That is the reason why i didn't write anything new these days ). I am i 9th grade . That means i just started highschool : New place , new people , new experience ...   
     I was terrified at the beginning . What will i do ? What will i say ? What will i wear ? What are they gonna think about me ?  I knew 2 girls from my class and that made this easier . But it was still scary . But i remeberd something i read in a christian book : Do you know what is the most mention commandment in the Bible ??? Is : DONT BE AFRAID ! 
    So i made some courage and walk in the classroom . My first impresion was : ''Woww . A lot of boys !! '' :)) We have 12 boys in our class and only 8 girls . They look at me as i sat down and then the teacher started speaking .  Another girl show up a little late and sat right next to me . I prezented myself and shook her hand . She almost wispers her name and after that we don't speak any more . She was dress nicely and she was a nice girl . I figured she was just shy or maybe she was too cool for school :)) .
    In the next couple of days i learnd almost all their names . The boys formed a boys group and start making jokes and  laughing . The girls laugh when it was funny and talk to each other , Besides the 2 girls i allready knew i was only speaking with this other girl , Elisa ( Is not her real name .. I just like to call her like that ) . On our second day of school  we choose our spots and she just sat right next to me . I'm happy she did because our desks are just one newt to another and a boy would sit next to me then .. We prezentet our self and start talking . And talking and talking . The next day she got sick ( a girl atea sandwish next to her ) and i stayed with her . We had to miss a class . By the end of the day she felt better :P . Anyway we became friends .
    With the boys i didn't talk almost at all . Maybe tomorow :) .
    Now i have to wake every morning at 6 o'clock ... It's so harrd . And the highschool is almost an hour away ... So this weekend i am really gonna get some sleep !
    I almost forgot to mention that is a christian highschool . We wave a lot of classes in witch we learn more about God  . I can't belive how many things / details  / interpretations  i've missed when i was reading the Bible ! And i just love to find out new things about him every day !!
   
        And i was thinking .. there are so many kids out there who cant go to school but really want to .
 There are so many of them who don't have a school to go to (near by ) .
 There are so many who have to dropp out of school and work instead .
 There are so many of them not going to school because they don't have the means to buy a notebook or a pencil .
 There are so many of them forced by they parents to droppe out of school .
         And today i am praying for all of them ! And i am praying for all the school in Romania in witch you can not learn in and for all the school that don't exist .
      Today i pray for schools !!

EAT PRAY LOVE

    For me is not just a movie title . It's my daily motto .
    
    EAT

   I am trying to gain some weight since i can remember . In my 5th grade i only have 25 kg . In my 8th grade i had 40 kg the most .
    I have tryied almost everything . Vitamines , proteins , fast-food . But  i can't afford to eat fast-food every single day . And I don't want to get fat and be unhealty .  
    The doctor said that i don't have anything .. like a disease or something that is stoping me for getting fatter . And my  sisters were kind of skinny too when they were younger , but they got  fatter in time ... So nothing to worry about right ?
    I guess God just don't want me to get fatter .. at least not for now . Or maybe i am not trying hard enough ..
    Anyway i am gratefull that i was skinnier in middle scholl because we had some really obsessed boys in school and beacause i wasn't so ''perfect'' they had nothing to do with me .
    I don't want to gain weight because i want to be  good looking . I just want to fell good in my skin and more confident .
    So for all of the  girls out there who are trying to lose or gain weight  because they want to be perfect or they are trying to impress a boy , I am telling you  : It's not worth it !  You are beautiful as you are , and if a boy is liking you as you are , he really likes you !


     PRAY

    If you read my first post you would know that the whole concept of this blog is praying . I am planing to pray for 6 months for Romania and see if something happens . Or make something happen ! Today is day 12 . Nothing happend yet . But i keep praying !
      I am praying that someone sees my blog and decides to make a difference . I am praying ... and God listens !
      Some of you may think that praying makes no difference . You may think is a waste of time .. Or maybe you just don't know how to pray . But i am telling you : YOUR PRAYER MAKES A DIFFERENCE !
So if you don't have the means to help just pray !

    I was wondering .. If Justin Bieber , Selena Gomez , Joe Jonas , Brad Pitt , Usher ,Oprah , Lady Gaga ,  etc would sell just a hair , or a used napkin or something  ... how many kids do you think will have something good to eat toninght ? How many kids will be able to smile ?   And I am wondering ... How can you have so much money and so many possibilities and not think about helping others ? Or how can you do it just when you need good publicity ?
     So i am praying today that someone famous reads this and makes a difference ! I am praying for all this famous and rich people to see how much they can do .
    And i am really sorry if i judge ! Maybe i can do more too ! And so can you !
    So pray .. and then get up and make a difference !


   Love

    Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails ...
    I've allready written this part before but i didn't save it by mistake . So here i am  writing it again after i've wasted allready an hour yesterday .
    Because it seems that i have no inspiration in the morning , i first write all of this down , on a piece of paper , last night . But enough about this . Let's talk about love ..
    They are so many quotes and opinions about what love means ... My favourite is :
 ''Love is like a disease without which you are not healty ''
  It;s impossible to go through life without loving somebody .. or at least something .
    Many of you may think : ''What does she know about love ? She is just another tenage girl waiting for her prince charming ''  
    But i have allrady find him . His  name is Jesus and he;s nothing like other boys . He's so kind and sweet . He never interupts me when i'm speking and he allways listens . He;s never late and he allways know what i'm thinking .
     He loves me so much that he would give his life for me . Oh .. wait . What am i saying . He allready has !!
    Now don't  be jealous. Jesus can be your knight in shining armour too !
    You may wonder .. why do i love him ? Simple . Because he loved me first . And he is showing me this every single day . I just have to keep my eyes open !
   
    'Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love!'
   What do you think love is ?
   Leave a comment with your favourite love quote !
   P.S. I guess i do have more inspiration at night . My pen hasn't slow down and now i'm out of paper :P .

Imagine God Smiling !

       It's hard to pray when  you don't belive in God , or if you just think He dosen't have time to listen to your prayers . But He is listening . Today is my 9th day since i started praying and nothing happened . That dosen't mean that God is not listening , or that  he just ignores me . That means that he has a time for all the things and i just have to wait and pray . God knows better !

      But for all of you out there who think God never listens , or that he dosen't have time for you , here is what i want you to do : #ImagineGod  !!!
     Imagine that God is a imaginary friend/brother/father/boyfriend. Anything that helps you .
      And imagine Him :

-Holdig your hand at the doctor/dentist .
-Laughing  with you when you hear a joke or see something funny .
-Tucking you at night and wispering you ''good night '' .
-Eating with you ( That will improve for sure your cooking :))  )
-Hug you when  you feel sad
-Helping  you to get up when you fall
-Standing right next to you when you pass by some dangerous  dogs or some really big guys .
-Saying that you are pretty each time before you leave the house
-Staying in your car when you drive
-Runing with you through the rain .
-Giving you a flower each time when you see one .
-Trying to cher you up each time that you are sad or angry
-Playing with you when you play computer games .
-Dancing with you
-Helping you clean the house
-Crying with you when you need to cry
-Smiling each time that you pray or help someone ( Imagine that  : God is smiling , smiling because of you )

And guess what : God is actually doing all of this with you every single day . You just can't see him .
I know is sounds a little silly and childish , but you would be amazed to see how better you feel !
And i left the important part  at the end :

    Imagine God saying : ''That's my kid/son/daughter !!'' Imagine God beeing proud of you ! Because He is !

Children = God's angels on earth !

       Jesus said  “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

      Today i am praying for all the childrens in Romania .Here are some alarming numbers that make  Romania the country with the most abandoned children ( in Europe ) :

      Each year almost 9,000 children (including babies )  are abandoned in hospitals, orphanages or just left on the streets .
      In the last years over 3 million people went abroad to work leving behind 300.000 childrens alone or with thier realtives .
     Last year , approximately 40,000 children, most from  rural areas , have droped school .
     There is an estimated 100,000 children institutionalized in Romania's orphanages .The conditions are deplorable ! And our adoptions sistem makes it  even harder . Just 1000 children are adopted every year .
     In 2008 and 2009 over 3000 ( each year )  children were abused .
     5000 childrens are  curently having cancer . But our hospitals ...

     You would be amazed seeing how little those children need to smile . You can make that happen !You can make a change because your prayer makes a differene !!
      So if you really can't help these children just pray ! And spred the word . Mabey there is someone out there who would be really happy to help but dosen't know how !

God bless Romania !

               Here i am , on my 6th day , still praying and hoping i will make it 178 more days  . To be honest , i am not 100% sure that something will happen . But i am 100% sure that God heard all my prayers and want me to keep praying . So i am .
        But i am not praying for Romania to get richer or cleaner or more beutiful . I don't think that Romania needs more skyscrapers or fancy buildings or a  brighter president  .I am praying for those who need some love .
I am praying for the orphans so that they can fin their Father and i am praying for all those teenagers who think that some cigarettes ,alcohol or drogs can make their life better .
I am praying for all the families with problems and all those who think they have no reason to life for .
I am praying for all of them to accept Jesus .


    Sometimes you have to lose all  to  realize that God is all you need .


  So i am asking you to pray with me , in your own words . It won't take long. And if you really don't have time just say this :



                         GOD  BLESS ROMANIA !

The beginning

   It all started 4 days ago when i read  ''If You Want to Walk on Water, You've Got to Get Out of the Boat '' by John Ortberg . This story caught my eye :

      'A guy named Doug Coe lives in the Washington DC area, and has a ministry in which he kind of hob-nobs with politicians, and runs in the circles of the affairs of state.
Doug became acquainted with BOB.
BOB is an insurance salesman.
BOB is completely unconnected to any government circles.
     Because of his relationship with Doug, BOB gets interested in the things of scripture, and he becomes a Christian. He began to meet with Doug as a means to assisting him to grow in his new-found faith experience.
One day BOB came in all excited about a statement that he had read in the Bible, in which Jesus says, "ASK whatever you will in MY NAME, and you shall receive it!"
   "Is that really TRUE?" BOB asks, a little skeptical.
    "We-el", Doug counters, "It's not exactly a BLANK CHECK. You have to take it in the context of everything else the scriptures teach about prayer, but it really is TRUE.... Jesus really does respond to our prayers. He really answers our prayers!"
  ''Oh, GREAT" BOB replied, "I've got to PRAY for SOMETHING!"
  "I think I'll pray for AFRICA!"
      Doug wants to guide BOB in this whole experience about prayer,
and he says, "Well, you know that's kind of broad, why don't you narrow it down to just a country."
   "OK, I'll pray for --- --- KENYA!"
   "Do you know anybody in Kenya?"
   "Nope."
   "Have you ever been to Kenya?"
   "Nope."
 BOB just seemingly felt impressed that he should PRAY for KENYA. So Doug makes a highly unusual agreement, and a highly unusually arrangement with BOB. He challenged BOB to pray every day for KENYA for 6 months. If BOB would do that, and nothing out of the ordinary happened, Doug would pay him $500!  BUT, if something remarkable DID happen BOB would pay Doug $500! And if BOB did not pray EVERY DAY for 6 months, the DEAL WAS OFF!
     "BOB began to pray. And he prayed for a long while. And guess what? Nothing happened.
      Well then one night BOB was at a dinner in Washington with a number of people that he was not familiar with. And as people were going around the table introducing themselves and explaining who they were, and a little bit about their lives, one woman said that she helped to run an orphanage in KENYA.  And BOB for a moment saw $500 begin to fly away!  But he was so riveted that he had run into a woman from KENYA that he could not stop his curiosity.  You see, up to this point, he had not really participated much in the conversation at the table, and now he began to pound this woman with question after questiion, and finally the woman says: "You are obviously very interested in my country. Have you ever been to KENYA before?"
"No."
"Do you know anybody in KENYA?"
"No."
"Then how is it that you are so curious about my country, KENYA?"
"Well, somebody is kind of paying me $500 to pray for KENYA."
Well, she asked BOB if he would like to come and visit KENYA, and tour the orphanage, and if BOB could have, he would have left that very night.
    When BOB did arrive, he was appalled by the poverty, and the lack of basic health care, and upon returning to his home in Washington, he simply could not get KENYA and the orphanage out of his mind.
And he began to write large pharmaceutical companies describing to them the vast need he had seen. He reminded them that every year they would throw away large amounts of medical supplies that went unsold.
"Why don't you send them to this place in KENYA?" He included in his letter.
And some of them did.
And the orphanage received a million dollars worth of medical supplies from American pharmaceutical companies.
BOB receives a telephone call from the woman in KENYA.
"BOB, this is amazing! We've received the most phenominal gifts because of the letters you wrote. Would you like to fly back over! We'd like to have a big CELEBRATION!"
   
"So BOB gets on the plane and goes back to KENYA.
While he's there the president of KENYA comes to the celebration, because this is the largest orphanage in KENYA .
He meets the president of KENYA, and the president invites BOB to take a tour of Nairobi. During the tour, they visited a prison. And BOB asked about a particular group of prisoners that were incarcerated.
"Well, they're political prisoners," he was told.
"That's a BAD IDEA!" BOB says, rather forthrightly.
"You should let them out!"
Well, a couple of days later, BOB flies back home.
Sometime later back home, the telephone rings.
It's the State Department of the United States Government.
"Is this BOB?"
"Yes."
"Were you recently in KENYA?"
"Yes!"
"Did you make any statements to the president of KENYA about political prisoners?"
"Yes."
"What did you say?"
"I said he should let them out!"
The voice from the State Department went on to explain that they had been working for years trying to get the release of these political prisoners to no avail.
All diplomatic and political channels had simply run into a dead end, but now the PRISONERS had been RELEASED!
And the State Department had been told that it had been largely because of ---
BOB. So the government was just calling to say - THANKS!



Some months later the president of KENYA called --- BOB.
He was about to make some very important decisions about some new personnel in his cabinet.
Would you, BOB, please be willing to fly over to KENYA here and spend THREE DAYS praying for me as I make these decisions?
So BOB, not politically connected at all, flys back to KENYA, and prays, asking God to give the leader of the nation of KENYA wisdom.''

Our prayers make a difference!

      So .. after reading this i thought : ''I can do that to . I can pray for 6 months .'' Of course i didn't have a bet with anybody but in the end i hope i will win something much more important then money .
     Today is my 5th day of  praying . But i am not praying fror Kenya . I am praying for my country : Romania . I am praying for the orphans and the homeless , i am praying for our hospitals and for our orphanages . And i will pray for them for the next six months . And i hope that my prayers will make a difference too !
