Go, tell it on the mountains.

It is precious in the sight of the Lord.

A tree with deep healthy roots can withstand the storms and flourish.

A person with deep roots of faith in the Lord can withstand the storms of life and flourish here on earth as well as towards the ultimate goal of God’s eternal kingdom.

What is the highest goal in your life?

In past times there used to be sentinels, guards who watched over the city e.g. in the night to watch out for enemies attacking.

But back then as well as same today, our fate does not only depend on people nor possessions nor other earthly matters, but ultimately most of all depends on the blessing of the almighty eternal God.

Who is the people of faith?

Are you patient with others?

On a typical day of your life – what are mainly your concerns and your thoughts?

Do you mainly think about the things that you miss, that you lack in life?

It is good to take on the challenges and to pray for those things that can be improved.

But let’s also give thanks for the good things. In everybody’s life, even if it seems to be too miserable, there are at least a few things that are good. It is a good practice to find each day a few things to give thanks to God. And to give praise to the merciful Lord for who he is.

What do you think about your own body?

Many people do not like their body, perceiving it as too fat or in other negative ways.

Others try to live a more healthy lifestyle to get free of sicknesses.

The ultimate freedom is found in the good news. In his mercy, the eternal God invites everyone individually to make our body his temple that is more than just the sum of atoms and molecules.

It is good for the heart to be strengthened!
