There are so many good things that HAVE TO be done. There are so many in need.
But in all these millions of works in your to-do-list, there is one that shouldn't be lost. Love.
Jesus said "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself."
There is poor to help, sick to heal, job to be done, exams to be passed and many other needs in this world. But God is the one in control of every situation. If He gives you a wish to help, that's great. But there is one thing that He asks from you. Love. Great love to Him from all your soul, great love to Him with all your mind. And love to other people.
How about trying this out? Say just a week - try to do what you do just because of great love to God and love to other people?

Is that what I still want? Or is it just beautiful dream but boring reality?
Daļa no manis
- Vai Jums ir caurlaide, vīza?
Šis ceļš ir uz Paradīzi!
- Kāds ceļš? Tā daļa no manis!
Sapņiem pirkt atļauju? Neesmu radis!
- Piedodiet, nelaidīsim!
- Pretošos!
- Projām dzīsim!
- Tā daļa no manis, tā labākā,
gadiem caur ilgām uzpostā,
auklētā, mīlētā, ilgotā,
tā mana dzīves, ikdienas rota!
- Šī zona ir apmeklētājiem slēgta!
Piekāpiet citreiz, saruna beigta!
...un aizveras vārti, tie noklaudz bargi.
Es palieku ārā, iekšpusē sargi.
Man noslēgta daļa, daļa no manis.
Atņemta tā, vai atgūt to spēšu?
Es cīnīšos kamēr uzvarēšu!

what it takes
Do you want to be part of a miracle?
Do you know what it takes to be part of a miracle? It takes to face impossible situation. Do you still want to be part of a miracle?
Do you want to make a significant difference in this world?
Do you know what it takes to make a significant difference? It takes a significant sarcifice. Do you still want to make a significant difference?
Be prepared. But don't be afraid.

I never finish anyth
Most people would be happy to never encounter a bear, but in case if you need to find one, you need to search for bear's footprints, not to quit and follow those of rabbits, even if they are much easier to find.

By the way, actually here I'm talking about finishing important things in general, just about finding a bear that was escaped from our national park.

While you were sleeping
Last night we were not reading late night fairy tales, we were not watching sleep-well cartoons or playing cards till we fall asleep. We were coloring our nails pink and finding the pinkest clothes we have
Almost ready! Still when we saw others no time was needed to agree - next year we have a vacancy for costume designer. Ladies in pink were even not close to the most surprising costumes, but still, it was our first try!
3, 2, 1... And here we go! We are so fast that we even can't be captured in a photo.
Part of the run - through smoke while light was blinking all the time.
Happy pink finish! 4km done.
In the next picture - the person who woke me up next day at 7am. By throwing pillows on me and saying that it is time to prepare breakfast.

Stop and wonder
I want to stop for a while and grasp the feeling of wonder.
Wonder that not only Father can change people, but He actually does.
Wonder that not only He could create a person that loves others, shares with money, food and place to live with those in need, but He actually does.
Wonder that those questions you had in mind (and in mouths of your friends) are the thoughts also attacking others.
Wonder and encouragement. To be different. Because, even if it sounds crazy, God is more powerful than our craziness. If believing that He loves us and wants to give us the best things, we just need to trust and fall in His arms.
Even if that sounds crazy.

Our Creator is still creating us
His plans in our lives are greater than we know and dare to expect.
Thanks!
