US vessels in Haiti...

US Mercy vessel is anchored in Haiti, receiving as many injured people as possible. This is a real hu-man/christian action - no doubt. Yet, for some weird reason, someone asked who is going to pay for all expenses... and, then, for some hours, all aid was stopped!!!

Meanhile, today, on all TVs, it was reported that 10 americans were arrested in the border Haiti-D.Republic with dozens of children (!!!???). Wow, what kind of school bus was this!? What kind of tour was this, gentlemen? Haitian police force (if any, poor guys) declared to press that americans were kidnapping haitian kids!

1. Kidnapping of kids
2. Traffic of hu-man organs

Both are happening every day in Haiti!

US force should say something, right?

Haiti - and now!?

Haitians and all whole world thank Lord and generous people who have been helping the poorest country of Americas. But after the terrible earthquake (7.5 Richter) that completely destroyed capital Port-Au-Prince, we have points to ponder:

1. Why only AFTER catastrophes hu-mans start helping other hu-mans?;
2. Why rich countries did not help Haiti BEFORE earthquake?;
3. Why rich countries faked Haiti was not next-to-their doors?;
4. Why US "invaded" Haiti WITHOUT ONU authorisation (once again!)?;
5. Why "christians" now jumped over Haiti with clear target to "look good" (some)...?

Why "look good"? Simple: again, why NOT BEFORE?
Who, who , who will inspect accountability of the "organisations"?
Why countries like Dominican Republic closed borders to haitian immigrants?

Okay: that's enough...!!!

From my window...

I should give thanks to the Lord for what I am and all I have;
I should look at the sea and realize that I am over 50% made of water;
I should stare the little boats (local rafts) while sailing away to trouble waters;
I should picture myself on those brave fishmen who leave beloved ones every dawn;
I should be tantalised by big vessels berthing alongside my Fortaleza Port;
I should be glad for being one of a few guys having the privilege of working seafront;
I should thank God much more, rather than begging and begging and begging...;
I should, I should, I should humbly say: Lord Jesus, you are the One and Only.

2010: 48 years of pilgrimage on earth...

When an alien lives with you in your land, do not mistreat him (Lv 19.33)

I do hope some of my readers (almost 7!)might congratulate me for 48 years of age!

Yes, if anyone wishes me some 100 years ahead, I will be deeply thankful. In fact, I talked to God and asked Him merely 150 years of age full of good health + prosperity + friends! Wow!, it is not to ask too much, is it?

Being a wanderer-of-God is my destiny; to live is just a detail. I am not from this world; I am from heavens. But I am not in a hurry to return home - no way, baby! Father might wait for me some time longer...

1.No one should mistreat me;
2.No one should block my way;
3.No one should disturb my peace.

If anyone insists on bothering me, I will call daddy: God-Almighty.

Keep cool, dear reader. Trust in the Lord Jesus.

I don't like eating duck flesh... (Esther, 6 years old)

Some people say that best period in life is that of childhood!

A few people would say: for sure!

Days ago, my niece Esther (6 years old), after listening to adult talks on eating flesh, fish or anything "eatable", she uttered: I don't like eating some flesh with feathers or whatever...!!! Wow, that's weird! It made me ponder:

1. Let's avoid eating "red flesh";
2. Let's eat some more white flesh or fish;
3. Let's avoid eating too much. It is a sinful act...;
4. Let's drink some good-quality red wine. Good for blood circulation;
5. Let's pray before and after eating (just to make it sure!).

Very important: do not waste - no way! There are millions starving to death in this crazy world.

Yes, I cannot complain that 2010 has not really started for me:

1. I've been suffering from some illness (not that serious);
2. My mom-in-law has gone into hospital: brain-surgery...;
3. My car broke into pieces... wow!,on the way to church;
4. Jan-month shall be full of expenses down in Equator... and I'm waiting...;
5. Just received proforma for my car-repair...: oh, Lord!

Well, none of these shakes me up! No way, baby! I trust in Lord Jesus!

Happy 2010! How do you look at new year?

... and we have come to Jan-2010!

Maybe my dearest reader still suffers from "hangover" or something! Maybe he-she might have entered new year in prayers (NOT so easy, I might state!). But, anyway, we all must face reality: one more year, one more chance, one more period of 365 days that God resolved to give US! Well, how do you look at 2010?

1. Deeply pessimistic;
2. Moderate optimism;
3. It is just the way it is: some things wil never change;
4. I might confess I do not know;
5. None of the above options.

I sincerely wish that 2010 might be better than 2009.
I sincerely wish that my dearest reader might be healthy all through 2010.
I sincerely wish that humans might be even more hu-mans, for real.
I sincerely wish that God Himself might dress up in the colours of your country's flag...!!!

Merry Christmas and a blessed 2010 to all my readers!
Yeah! It is Christmas, once again! But, what actually means Christmas?

1. Christmas means cities full of flashing lights multicoloured;
2. Christmas means we should have to "seem" that everything is OK;
3. Christmas means family gathered around table and dinner gets too late!;
4. Christmas means a son-daughter who comes from too distant land...;
5. Christmas means go shopping at last minute... to get bargains!;
6. Christmas means giving and receiving gifts (wow, too cheap!). Sorry!;
7. Christmas means offices plotting parties and "faking" care bout employee;
8. Christmas means employee "fake" he-she loves, loves very much the office;
9. Christmas means a father dressing himself up as Santa;
10.Christmas means a son-daughter of 8 years "faking" to believe in Santa!

Christmas, matter of fact, means: birth of J.Christ. He can born and re-born again and again anytime - and NOT only in December each year!

Okay: Merry Christmas!

AIRBUS A400M launched in Sevilla - Spain!

Today, 11.12.2009, in Sevilla (Spain), the big A400M AIRBUS military transporter took off for the first time!

Presences of king Juan Carlos and lots of VIPs (wow!).

The attentive reader might have been asking himself: why pastor PCSampaio has placed this article on his blog-site!?

1. Total of 184 A400M will be flying in the world;
2. It costs a lot of money!;
3. It it the contribution for world peace!?
4. Why more military planes like this one!?

Frankly speaking: I like planes... By the way, the plane was invented by a brazilian: Alberto Santos Dumont, though our friends in USA insist on sayingn that Right Brothers were first to use a plane! France and the whole world acknowledged A.S.Dumont as the unique-real inventor of plane.

Well, better not to discuss about it... aha aha aha!

Bloodthirstymen hate a man of integrity and seek to kill the upright (Prov 29.10)

This photo shows that pirates have total control-domain in Somalia.

They take control of vessels and require big amount of money to release them!

Young men have come into this new "business" in Somalia. The whole world knows about it but has NOT done much to stop pirates - until today.

1. Whom should we claim to?
2. What shipping lines have been doing?
3. What insurance companies have been doing? Dozens of vessels have come into hands of - dear Lord! - pirates in XXI century!

I simply do NOT believe that this is something of present times and NOT NOT of medieval times! Who claims to be Capt. Jack Sparrow of today's times!? There is something wrong out there! Someone must find it... urgently!

May God provide courage to some men...

I urge, then, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone (1 Tim 2.1).

Time is money, someone said many many years ago...!!!

Nowadays mankind does not have time to think - even to think over important things! People do not care for others; but themselves!

The "next" is too far away...!!! It seems the world is coming to an end today, because it failed "yesterday"! Some other people do care, but exclusively for their own interests!

Christianism is: caring for one another. Sharing everything. Giving... If "that" (sharing-giving) is true about christianism... then why people ask so much?

Why on earth there is so much individualism? Well, individualism is part of some cultures - like american, for example! Orientals are different...

So, what to do, pastor? Try this:

1. Prayers
2. Intercession
3. Thanksgiving
4. Caring for one another
5. Being a true christian (praxis)

By doing the above, something extra-ordinary will happen in your ordinary life!

IN GOD WE TRUST

"In Him we have redemption..., the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace" (Ephesians 1.7)

TODAYS WORD FROM PASTOR PCSAMPAIO
Let's face the truth: many people keep mourning throughout lives over their sins, confessing the same ones again and again and insisting with pastors to keep praying on their behalf! Come on! We should all focus on Him and not not on ourselves!

The only requirement for a daily forgiveness and cleansing is an equally daily confession (1 Jn 9). We all sin every single day! The Bible says that we are redeemed and forgiven "according to the riches of His grace" (Eph.17). Well, that's enough for me; I do not know about you! Hope yes-so!

Nowadays, some tender note (money) stamps the sentence: in God we trust. That's for real!? Well, NOT for Brazil which elected a female-idol for saint patroness decades ago! What a shame! What a disaster! Nevertheless, there are about 35 million saints in terra brasilis who actually know God-Almighty and his son Jesus Christ as the Only and begotten saviour. Amem!

1. Watch out! Do not trust everyone - no way!
2. Take care! Do not be led by appearance(s), at all!
3. Stop feeling guilty once and for all. God already forgave all all your sins
4. Start acting as a new person in Jesus Christ
5. Put your faith in a great God - Jesus, the man and the God.

TODAYS PRAYER
Father, I acknowledge my sins and ask you to forgive me of all of them
Father, please write my name in the book of life, right now
Father, I take you in your word: on You, my sins are forgiven

'Repent, and believe in the gospel" (Mark 1.15)

TODAYS WORD FROM PASTOR PCSAMPAIO
Martin Luther put it this way in the first of the 95 theses he nailed to the door of Wintttenberg church: "When our Lord and Master Jesus Christ said 'repent', we willed that the entire life of a believer be one of repentance.

Here is the secret: the change of mind. The change of heart. The change of a lifestyle. Even being secure in Christ, we are usually and not always repenting - that's the bad news! God's eyes are everywhere. When we sin, we should repeat as quickly as possible. Do not take too much time thinking that He will forget - eheheh! He will NEVER FORGET, unless you confess and receive forgiveness of God.

1. Acknowledge that you sinned;
2. Ask for forgiveness of God;
3. Feel in your heart and spirit that you are now a new child of God;
4. Act, act as a child of God.

Believe in the gospel and you will be saved.

TODAYS PRAYER
Father, help me get rid of my sins.
Father, forgive all my sins.
Father, write my name in the book of life.
In Jesus' name. Amem!

VERY EARLY IN THE MORNING

"Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed" (Mark 1.35)

TODAYS WORD FROM PASTOR PCSAMPAIO

Jesus was always surrounded by many people. Where he went, crowds and crowds followed Him. They were not actually interested in the preachings, new moral and ethics Jesus was bringing in. People were astonished by miracles and wonders He performed, as nobody else before, never, ever!

Nowadays, the picture lingers on: we, believers or not, have been living among thousands (if not millions) of people. But, down inside, we feel the great need to go off to some solitary place and re-charge our spirit from God-Almighty. The power must come from the ever-present Spirit. Lonliness may be present among thousands. This happens very often with anyone, anywhere. Well, how can we get healed from lonliness?

1. Try meeting God (look after some serious church nearby);
2. Try knowing God through the pages of the Bible;
3. Try hearing God through preachings, musics, Bible, etc.;
4. Try talking to God. HE will love hearing from you... It's been a long time, buddy!;
5. Try being led by God.

Before I forget: very early in the morning, try talking to HIM. He wakes up very very early...!!!

TODAYS PRAYER
Father, help me to get up early and talk to you!
Father, open my eyes to see you today!
Father, I feel alone... Come over and help me out!

DO NOT BE SO MUCH GREEDY

TODAYS WORD FROM PASTOR PCSAMPAIO

"He who loves silver will not be satisfied with silver; nor he who loves abundance, with increase" (Ec 5.10).

Some time ago, we use to hear that high level of unemployment was something of third world country...!!!

Today we realize that it has come to doors of the so-called first world, due to the global crisis.

Millions of people are - right at this very moment - unemployed after working all their lives! Worse of all: people at age of 50-60 (or over!) are now without knowing what to do!

Now, it does not actually matter much the guilty for the current economic situation (we all know the country which started the whole thing - regrettably!). But, a certain president declared: the party is over! Well, he was not wrong, at all!

Let's name a guilty anyway: the greed problem. Why not be a true christian: be content-glad with what one has!? All right, pastor, so what to do now!?

1. Try some prayers. He loves to hear your begging voice;
2. Try getting some more qualifications-trainings etc. It will help a lot!;
3. Try adjusting your life to exactly what you earn - not more, never, ever!;
4. Try giving thanks to HIM. He will help you to go thru this valley...

Ah, before I forget: learn how to share. HE loves his children sharing...!!!

TODAYS PRAYER
Father, help me in this time of need;
Father, I do not - no more! - ask for treasures. I ask for humble things;
Father, help me to be content.

"Let your 'yes' be yes and 'no' be no. For whatever is more than these is from the evil one" (Matthew 5.37).

TODAYS WORD FROM PASTOR PCSAMPAIO

It is actually true that many many times we are tempted to break treaties, by accepting and/or offering other advantages! As christians, we must repeat must be loyal to our own word and - mainly - to the Lord Jesus Christ.

When you give your word, keep it!
If you have an appointment, go!
If you take obligation, honour it!

Honesty, frankness, confidence should be some of the 'evidences' of a true christian.

If you are tempted to break a promise, remind yourself: I have a treaty!

Why in the world of 6 billion people only 2 billion are christians! Think of it!

TODAYS PRAYER
Father, help me to be loyal to me and you;
Father, I want to be a promise-keeper;
Father, forgive me for all my sins.
