...sometimes there are no words 2 say... & the silence speaks for it self;
this times are :) & calm, but quite strange, 'cause we are used 2 have allways
something happening; altough we can't see, things are happening & when you
less expect they are given right into your hands... so wait patiently, search & do not give up!

3 Tu escutas as nossas orações e todos os que se dirigem a ti,(...)
6 Tu nos respondes, ó Deus, nosso salvador, com admiráveis actos de justiça;
[ 'brigada porque nos dás sempre para além do q possamos imaginar..!! ]
tu pões em segurança toda a terra e a imensidão dos mares.
[ ..e nos seguras, assim como toda a terra, mares... td o que criaste!]
7 Tu manténs firmes as montanhas com o teu poder e a tua força.
8 Tu acalmas os bramidos dos mares, o estrondo das ondas e o tumulto dos povos.
9 Até os que habitam em terras distantes tremem perante tuas maravilhas; os teus feitos trazem gritos de alegria dum extremo ao outro da terra.
[ em todo o lado Tu estás a mexer e há grande alegria e entusiasmo no ar!!! ]
10 Tu cuidas da terra, enviando-lhe o orvalho e torna-la rica e fértil.
Enches a transbordar os rios caudalosos e fazes com que a terra produza o trigo, pois foi para isso que a criaste. 11 Irrigas os sulcos, regulando a sua altura; amoleces a terra com chuvas abundantes e abençoas as suas sementeiras.
[ continua a despertar, a restaurar e a amolecer os corações... mta chuva:) e as sementes vão/estão a crescer! ]
12 A tua bondade favorece as colheitas!
Por onde quer que vás há abundância.
[...quero disto, quero-te cmg ...Deus!! :).. vou ctg onde fores..!! ]
13 As pastagens do deserto tornam-se verdejantes e as colinas revestem-se de riqueza. 14 Os campos campos combrem-se de trigais;
todos cantam e gritam de alegria!

Salmo 65
português corrente

1 Silence is praise to you, Zion-dwelling God, And also obedience.
2 You hear the prayer in it all. We all arrive at your doorstep sooner or later, loaded with guilt,3 Our sins too much for us - but you get rid of them once and for all.
4 Blessed are the chosen! Blessed the guest at home in your place! We expect our fill of good things in your house, your heavenly manse.
5 All your salvation wonders are on display in your trophy room. Earth-Tamer, Ocean-Pourer, 6 Mountain-Maker, Hill-Dresser, 7 Muzzler of sea storm and wave crash, of mobs in noisy riot - 8 Far and wide they'll come to a stop, they'll stare in awe, in wonder. Dawn and dusk take turns calling, "Come and worship." 9 Oh, visit the earth, ask her to join the dance! Deck her out in spring showers, fill the God-River with living water. Paint the wheat fields golden. Creation was made for this! 10 Drench the plowed fields, soak the dirt clods With rainfall as harrow and rake bring her to blossom and fruit. 11 Snow-crown the peaks with splendor, scatter rose petals down your paths, 12 All through the wild meadows, rose petals.

Set the hills to dancing, 13 Dress the canyon walls with live sheep, a drape of flax across the valleys. Let them shout, and shout, and shout! Oh, oh, let them sing!

Psalm 65
The Message

...since february, through quiet times, speaking with friends here & there...
There are 3 things which need 2 be found, 2 be re-discovered, that are lacking in our daily lifes, families, streets, schools, jobs, churches and in our own country or even in our world.

So think about it... get into it...

1 Intimacy

  • + of God / - of ourselves [ 2 search Him, Know Him & be with Him ]
  • your heart [it all starts at the heart: decisions, the brokenness, the being available, atitude, changing of mentalities ]
  • others [ speak, comunicate, share with each other what is going on in your head & mostly in your heart!]
2 Identity

  • culture / society [ know your routs; grab your city/country own way of being ]
  • spiritual [ tackle boldly your position in Christ , do not let any one take it! ]
  • you / people [ know yourself; your background; have an individual consciousness 2 know 'till where you can go; as well beware of your gifts, skills and also of those :( stuff about your character ]

3 Simplicity

  • God's Things = simple things [... it is man who usually complicates , messes up everything ]
  • start small ... we don't need to have it all [ God blesses small beguinnings !]
  • in speaking, in being with each other... just be yourself!
    [ do not be afraid of showing your true colors ... ]

What if...
… suddenly everything you know

or call reality was gone?
… you would feel lost, on an unknown land
not belonging to any one?

I would tell you…

You’ll have to go far away
to get close & find your self.
You’ll have to get lost
to get there in a second.

You’ll feel that you’re the only one;
One of a kind
from” another race”.

[who knows… a winner one]

Far away from everything
you call your,from your “casual day “…

…you’ll know
Who you are;
Your roots are there, you can not deny,
the knowledge also.

All you have to do:... get back on “Your Horse”,

[ Get your self together ]

look [straight] ahead, go on , on “The Track”.

( … )
