Sight seeing part 2~ HOLLAND " AMSTERDAM"

"AMSTERDAM "

The city i come to love along the years!
It is known about the "good" and the "bad".......I treasure the good things and prayed for the bad scenes and aspects not to overshadows what is good and wonderful in God's sight .......

To see along the years clearly the good and the bad made me remember a word from GOD'S WORD

Isaiah 65:8 (New International Version)

⁸ This is what the LORD says:
"As when juice is still found in a cluster of grapes
and men say, 'Don't destroy it,
there is yet some good in it,'
so will I do in behalf of my servants;
I will not destroy them all.

This is t"The sign" of this city



Entering Amsterdam at CENTRAL STATION you can't escape the scene of bike's.












This stadium make my son dream more about playing "prof"soccer with his favorite club AJAX !!

Amsterdam ArenA opened on 14 August 1996. From that day on the Netherlands has had a multifunctional stadium in Amsterdam. A spectacular venue that offers all kinds of possibilities. From football matches to pop concerts, from dinners to kick-off meetings the possibilities are endless.It is for example the first stadium in the world with an underground passageway and the first stadium in Europe with a sliding roof. The Amsterdam ArenA is the headquarters of AFC Ajax. The Amsterdam football club plays all of its home matches here. The club has all of the necessary facilities, such as locker rooms, a weight room, a gym, a boardroom, a players' lounge and much more. In addition to Ajax's 17 First Division matches, the stadium also hosts European Cup matches, KNVB international matches, cup and friendly matches. Furthermore, MOJO Concerts and Rocket organises concerts of major artists and groups in the ArenA, and every year ID&T puts on the largest indoor dance parties, Sensation & Black. The Amsterdam ArenA is also the ideal place for events including product presentations, theatre performances, sales training sessions, company parties and more.

CANNELS narrow streets BRIDGES over the canals!

Psalm 89

An Ethan Prayer

^1-4 Your love, God, is my song, and I'll sing it! I'm forever telling everyone how faithful you are.
I'll never quit telling the story of your love—
how you built the cosmos
and guaranteed everything in it.
Your love has always been our lives' foundation,
your fidelity has been the roof over our world.
You once said, "I joined forces with my chosen leader,
I pledged my word to my servant, David, saying,
'Everyone descending from you is guaranteed life;
I'll make your rule as solid and lasting as rock.'"

^5-18 God! Let the cosmos praise your wonderful ways,
the choir of holy angels sing anthems to your faithful ways!
Search high and low, scan skies and land,
you'll find nothing and no one quite like God.
The holy angels are in awe before him;
he looms immense and august over everyone around him.
God-of-the-Angel-Armies, who is like you,
powerful and faithful from every angle?
You put the arrogant ocean in its place
and calm its waves when they turn unruly.
You gave that old hag Egypt the back of your hand,
you brushed off your enemies with a flick of your wrist.
You own the cosmos—you made everything in it,
everything from atom to archangel.
You positioned the North and South Poles;
the mountains Tabor and Hermon sing duets to you.
With your well-muscled arm and your grip of steel—
nobody trifles with you!
The Right and Justice are the roots of your rule;
Love and Truth are its fruits.
Blessed are the people who know the passwords of praise,
who shout on parade in the bright presence of God.
Delighted, they dance all day long; they know
who you are, what you do—they can't keep it quiet!
Your vibrant beauty has gotten inside us—
you've been so good to us! We're walking on air!
All we are and have we owe to God,
Holy God of Israel, our King!

^19-37 A long time ago you spoke in a vision,
you spoke to your faithful beloved:
"I've crowned a hero,
I chose the best I could find;
I found David, my servant,
poured holy oil on his head,
And I'll keep my hand steadily on him,
yes, I'll stick with him through thick and thin.
No enemy will get the best of him,
no scoundrel will do him in.
I'll weed out all who oppose him,
I'll clean out all who hate him.
I'm with him for good and I'll love him forever;
I've set him on high—he's riding high!
I've put Ocean in his one hand, River in the other;
he'll call out, 'Oh, my Father—my God, my Rock of Salvation!'
Yes, I'm setting him apart as the First of the royal line,
High King over all of earth's kings.
I'll preserve him eternally in my love,
I'll faithfully do all I so solemnly promised.
I'll guarantee his family tree
and underwrite his rule.
If his children refuse to do what I tell them,
if they refuse to walk in the way I show them,
If they spit on the directions I give them
and tear up the rules I post for them—
I'll rub their faces in the dirt of their rebellion
and make them face the music.
But I'll never throw them out,
never abandon or disown them.
Do you think I'd withdraw my holy promise?
or take back words I'd already spoken?
I've given my word, my whole and holy word;
do you think I would lie to David?
His family tree is here for good,
his sovereignty as sure as the sun,
Dependable as the phases of the moon,
inescapable as weather."

^38-52 But God, you did walk off and leave us,
you lost your temper with the one you anointed.
You tore up the promise you made to your servant,
you stomped his crown in the mud.
You blasted his home to kingdom come,
reduced his city to a pile of rubble
Picked clean by wayfaring strangers,
a joke to all the neighbors.
You declared a holiday for all his enemies,
and they're celebrating for all they're worth.
Angry, you opposed him in battle,
refused to fight on his side;
You robbed him of his splendor, humiliated this warrior,
ground his kingly honor in the dirt.
You took the best years of his life
and left him an impotent, ruined husk.
How long do we put up with this, God?
Are you gone for good? Will you hold this grudge forever?
Remember my sorrow and how short life is.
Did you create men and women for nothing but this?
We'll see death soon enough. Everyone does.
And there's no back door out of hell.
So where is the love you're so famous for, Lord?
What happened to your promise to David?
Take a good look at your servant, dear Lord;
I'm the butt of the jokes of all nations,
The taunting jokes of your enemies, God,
as they dog the steps of your dear anointed.
Blessed be God forever and always!
Yes. Oh, yes.

Verses that caught my attention....spoke to my heart or make me see God's character clearly!!

Isaiah 46

4I've been carrying you on my back ( oooh Lord thank You so much...sorry for the times i was so heavy with all the burdens and extra weight)

from the day you were born,
And I'll keep on carrying you when you're old.
I'll be there, bearing you when you're old and gray.
I've done it and will keep on doing it,
carrying you on my back, saving you.( Lord you are so faithfull in keeping your word to me what a trust worthy father are you Lord)

^5-7"So to whom will you compare me, the Incomparable? ( I can't compare you Lord!!)
Can you picture me without reducing me? ( Your so right father and wise.....)
People with a lot of money
hire craftsmen to make them gods.
The artisan delivers the god,
and they kneel and worship it!
They carry it around in holy parades,
then take it home and put it on a shelf.
And there it sits, day in and day out,
a dependable god, always right where you put it.
Say anything you want to it, it never talks back.
Of course, it never does anything either!

^8-11"Think about this. Wrap your minds around it.
This is serious business, rebels.( Father i don't want to be an rebel!!) Take it to heart.
Remember your history,( Yes i remember you carry methrough deserts...,water and fires.....you dust me of and polish me up...Thank You Lord)
your long and rich history.
I am God, the only God you've had or ever will have—
incomparable, irreplaceable—
From the very beginning
telling you what the ending will be,
All along letting you in
on what is going to happen,
Assuring you, 'I'm in this for the long haul,
I'll do exactly what I set out to do,'
Calling that eagle, Cyrus, out of the east,
from a far country the man I chose to help me.
I've said it, and I'll most certainly do it.
I've planned it, so it's as good as done.( Father keep my eyes clear on You in my history and every day of my Life)

^12-13"Now listen to me:
You're a hardheaded bunch and hard to help.( please Lord don't give up on me mold me form me..........break through this head!!)
I'm ready to help you right now. ( ooooh Father Yes come to my help to my rescue deliver me from myself....)
Deliverance is not a long-range plan.
Salvation isn't on hold.
I'm putting salvation to work in Zion now,
and glory in Israel."

Isaiah 47

^4-13Our Redeemer speaks,
named God-of-the-Angel-Armies, The Holy of Israel:
"Shut up and get out of the way,
daughter of Chaldeans.
You'll no longer be called
'First Lady of the Kingdoms.'
I was fed up with my people,
thoroughly disgusted with my progeny.
I turned them over to you,
but you had no compassion.
You put old men and women
to cruel, hard labor.
You said, 'I'm the First Lady.
I'll always be the pampered darling.'
You took nothing seriously, took nothing to heart,
never gave tomorrow a thought.
Well, start thinking, playgirl.
You're acting like the center of the universe,
Smugly saying to yourself, 'I'm Number One. There's nobody but me.
I'll never be a widow, I'll never lose my children.'
Those two things are going to hit you both at once,
suddenly, on the same day:
Spouse and children gone, a total loss,
despite your many enchantments and charms.
You were so confident and comfortable in your evil life,
saying, 'No one sees me.'
You thought you knew so much, had everything figured out.
What delusion!
Smugly telling yourself, 'I'm Number One. There's nobody but me.'
Ruin descends—
you can't charm it away.
Disaster strikes—
you can't cast it off with spells.
Catastrophe, sudden and total—
and you're totally at sea, totally bewildered!
But don't give up. From your great repertoire
of enchantments there must be one you haven't yet tried.
You've been at this a long time.
Surely something will work.
I know you're exhausted trying out remedies,
but don't give up.
Call in the astrologers and stargazers.
They're good at this. Surely they can work up something!

^14-15"Fat chance. You'd be grasping at straws
that are already in the fire,
A fire that is even now raging.
Your 'experts' are in it and won't get out.
It's not a fire for cooking venison stew,
not a fire to warm you on a winter night!
That's the fate of your friends in sorcery, your magician buddies
you've been in cahoots with all your life.
They reel, confused, bumping into one another.
None of them bother to help you." ( Father i thank you so much that you make me see things cleary...........I prayed and prayed for my oppressors my daily enemies to take care of them to free me out of there hands..........You had also a plan for them just as for me.Your such a loving God but always honest ......)

Part of Isaiah 48

Tested in the Furnace of Affliction

^1-11 "And now listen to this, family of Jacob,
you who are called by the name Israel:
Who got you started in the loins of Judah,
you who use God's name to back up your promises
and pray to the God of Israel?
But do you mean it?
Do you live like it?
You claim to be citizens of the Holy City;
you act as though you lean on the God of Israel,
named God-of-the-Angel-Armies.
For a long time now, I've let you in on the way I work:
I told you what I was going to do beforehand,
then I did it and it was done, and that's that.
I know you're a bunch of hardheads,
obstinate and flint-faced,....................

You've never been good listeners to me.
You have a history of ignoring me,
A sorry track record of fickle attachments—
rebels from the womb.
But out of the sheer goodness of my heart,
because of who I am,
I keep a tight rein on my anger and hold my temper.
I don't wash my hands of you.
Do you see what I've done?
I've refined you, but not without fire.
I've tested you like silver in the furnace of affliction.
Out of myself, simply because of who I am, I do what I do.
I have my reputation to keep up.
I'm not playing second fiddle to either gods or people.

Sight seeing part 1 ~ HOLLAND~

Keukenhof (pronounced [ˈkøːkənˌhɔf], in Dutch: Kitchen garden), also known as the Garden of Europe, is situated near Lisse, Netherlands, and is the world’s largest flower garden. According to the official website for the Keukenhof Park, approximately 7,000,000 (seven million) flower bulbs are planted annually in the park.
Keukenhof is located in South Holland in the small town of Lisse, south of Haarlem and southwest of Amsterdam. It is accessible by bus from the train stations of Haarlem, Leiden and Schiphol. It is located in an area called the “Dune and Bulb Region” (Duin- en Bollenstreek).

The garden was established in 1949 by the then-mayor of Lisse. The idea was to present a flower exhibit where growers from all over the Netherlands and Europe could show off their hybrids – and help the Netherlands export industry (it is the world’s largest exporter of flowers). Keukenhof has been the world’s largest flower garden for over fifty years.
Keukenhof is open annually from the last week in March to mid-May. The best time to view the tulips is around mid-April, depending on the weather. In 2009 Keukenhof will be open from March 19 to May 21.

This was avirtual traveling to places in Holland and you are more than welcome in this country i came to know and love...So feel free to tell me anytime you are around or are planning to be...

Today a WORD about our SPIRITUAL TRAVELING with our Lord and savior!

Psalm 119:33 (The Message)

^33-40 God, teach me lessons for living
so I can stay the course.
Give me insight so I can do what you tell me—
my whole life one long, obedient response.
Guide me down the road of your commandments;
I love traveling this freeway!
Give me a bent for your words of wisdom,
and not for piling up loot.
Divert my eyes from toys and trinkets,
invigorate me on the pilgrim way.
Affirm your promises to me—
promises made to all who fear you.
Deflect the harsh words of my critics—
but what you say is always so good.
See how hungry I am for your counsel;
preserve my life through your righteous ways!

Be blessed !

WFW ~ MY DEAR LOVER..........~

Song of Solomon 5:10 (The Message)

The Woman

^10-16 My dear lover glows with health—
red-blooded, radiant!
He's one in a million.
There's no one quite like him!
My golden one, pure and untarnished,
with raven black curls tumbling across his shoulders.
His eyes are like doves, soft and bright,
but deep-set, brimming with meaning, like wells of water.
His face is rugged, his beard smells like sage,
His voice, his words, warm and reassuring.
Fine muscles ripple beneath his skin,
quiet and beautiful.
His torso is the work of a sculptor,
hard and smooth as ivory.
He stands tall, like a cedar,
strong and deep-rooted,
A rugged mountain of a man,
aromatic with wood and stone.
His words are kisses, his kisses words.
Everything about him delights me, thrills me
through and through!

That's my lover, that's my man,
dear Jerusalem sisters.

SUPER SUNDAY ~ SOARING CATHEDRALS ~

Proverbs 14:11 (The Message)



11 Lives of careless wrongdoing are tumbledown shacks;
holy living builds soaring cathedrals.

Live Life to the fullest !!

What a challenge to write my thoughts down and share it with my friends...

The day is at it's end it is Sunday a week is gone another one is waiting....

This week the thought crossed my mind ,that it would be a good attitude if i life my life as it is my last.How must this ATTITUDE be : I must not take people and life in general for granted.

My family

My work

Health

Food on the table

That i have all the different conveniences around me : all the maids who are working in my house.My grandmother had to put more energy in working around the house...

How must i show the people around me and the ones that cross my way that i do not take them for granted ??

I think it is the art of practicing LOVE do everything or try at least to do everything with love not out of duty or responsibility .

When i hear or think about the word Love ; THE WORD JESUS is resonating in my mind......

I AM the beginning and the end The Alpha and the Omega......

I remember the words i read that He said the fulfilling of the law is by LOVING your...........as yourself !

He showed the world love and teach ed about love and now in MY daily Life , i have to begin the day with Him and end it with Him ( remember He is the beginning and the end) and through the day I KNOW He is guiding and leading as long as i want to follow.He wants to carry My life's ups ,middles and downs and guide me every step i go ........What a awesome friend is He.I'm so blessed that I know that God gave His son to the world and that I'm part of the world and CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE ...Just as how His son made a difference 2007 years ago.........

This entry was my 1st trial to write a blog on my yahoo space.....I forgot this totally and this week...I was remembered that i have a space there and have to do somethings otherwise it will be deleted!!

Like i felt a nudge to make a post of it to show how my 1st trial was..LOL.... ........So this morning i wanted to copy and paste it overhere put the "Super Sunday" logo ad verses in it ( because than i did not know to surge in biblegateway.com to ad to my memory of verses) and maybe a song...........THAT WAS MY PLAN!!

But while surging to add the picture my eye crossed THE CATHEDRAL and my conversation went like this....

me: "huh"

Holy Spirit( my nudge/my heart) " YES publish it with your old picture and post "

I was caught out of guard!!

me :How will this be than.....how will this look/compare?? I don't know if i can manage to compose all together....It will look like a mess...........

HS : "START DOING IT AND DO NOT COMPLAIN OR HESITATE........."YOU WILL KNOW

THE MESSAGE I WANT TO BRING ACROSS!!

me: YES LORD!!

Copy/ pasting....looking........surge for verses!! Guiding...surge cathedral.........in biblegateway.com!!??

Do you see the MESSAGE??!!

Picture of the cathedral was made when my family strolled around in Haarlem after signing the papers for the foundation of THE NEW SALVATION CHURCH OF CHRIST!!

God gave a promise to me and my family and EVERYBODY who follow Christ who's pressing on to HEAR HIS VOICE and follow.........no matter the cost of self.... WE WILL BUILD SOARING CATHEDRALS!

Our life our spirit our soul will soar just like Cathedrals reaching for HEAVEN!!!

WE leaving behind our OLD-LIFE; our tumble-down shacks.............

THIS IS MY PROMISE TO YOU SAYS THE LORD.....are you willing to FOLLOW MY SON ??!! ..............DO YOU SEE YOUR HOLY BUILDING SOARING>>>>>>>>>>>>>REACHING for HEAVEN.....................................!!??
