Ash Wednesday

Hi! Today, I wanna talk about Ash Wednesday. 

Next week we are going to celebrate the Ash Wednesday, christian holy day. It’s a day of prayer and fasting. It falls on 46 days before Easter Sunday and it started the Lent.  

This day priest place ash on the believers forehead and say the words: "Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return." The ashes are just burnt palm leaves. The fast means that christian cannot eat meat that day.  



What this day stand for? 

It’s a special time to prepered yourself for Easter.  Placing ashes on the forehead is the symbol of proselityze. Jesus said: Believe in me wih all your heart. We have to realize that our lives elapse quickly, so its worth to stop on the minute and think about our lifes. Am I follow Jesus? What is more important to me  this life or eternal life? Am I humble?  

I encourage you to celebrate this day and answer above questions 😇

The Daniel Fast

Obraz
Hi! Have you ever heard about Daniel Fast?  Today, I want to write a little bit about that 😇 So, Daniel Fast is a vegetarian diet and based on the book of Daniel where he decides to not eat the food of King that has been sacrificed to idols. He wanted to be tested and he said to the guard whom the chief afficial ha appointed over him, "Please test your servants for 10 days: give us nothing but vegetables to eat and water to drink (...)" (Daniel 1:11-12). And then he's been doing this for 21 days.  For 21 days you can eat only vegetables and fruits 🙀 Sounds creepy, I know 😅 But believe me, it's worth it. It can help you experience a breakthrough in body, in your physical health, in mind and also in your spiritual health.  Three times a day try to spend time with God, from 5 minutes to one hour or even more. It will help you in your relationship with God and during this time He will bless you! After that time you will feel stronger physically, mentally and spiritaull

A few words about me to start with ;)

My name is Magdalena and I’m 22 years old. I live in a small city named Gołdap which is located in the north-eastern part of Poland and it's situated 4km from the border with Russia.   It's said that we have the cleanest air in Poland. It's a quiet town, but with a rich history. This town has always been a German city, there was even a German military garrison. In XX century Russia and Germany have fought for Gołdap many times, but since 1945 the town belongs to Poland. There are brine graduation tower, ponds, lake, "Piękna Góra" hill with beautiful views.

When I was 9 I joined a music band in church. At the same time, I joined a group where we used to read the Bible an

What is Bible Journaling?

Obraz
Hello! Today I'd like to explain you what is the Bible Journaling. Nowadays it's not common to see a young person who lives with God, who wants to have a relationship with Him and who follows Jesus, but this is Christianity. It's not a religion, it's a relationship with God, that's why "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord' will enter the kingdom of heaven" Mt 7:21.  I´ve always been close to Him, but I´ve never read the whole Bible, some books are written incomprehensible way. But few months ago I decided it´s time to change it, we don´t talk too much about the Bible, people actually don´t know much about the Scripture, don't remember its verses or they just try to change it to justify their sins.  Bible Journaling it's a good way to know God better. It's like building a relationship with God through reading the Bible. Because how can we know Him than by His words? Journaling Bibles have wide margins for journaling, prayers, note-t
