Inaugurating my little virtual library

Posted by Leandro, in Sem categoria on August 4th, 2009

I’m inaugurating a place in my blog where I will put all my books, their pics, my revisions of and ratings.

I like so much the Wordpress plugin called “Now reading reloaded”. It helped me to build my virtual library.42-15607508

I won’t publish any e-book. The library is just for reviewing and borrowing purpose. At most, I will publish their first chapters if the publisher allows me to do it.

All those books are inside my bedroom. I need to buy as soon as possible a new book shelf because there’s no space to place books anymore in it.

If you live near my home feel free to borrow me any book you wish freely. The only borrowing terms are these:

1) Treat the book as if it were yours;
2) Two-week maximum period for each borrowed book.

I didn’t make any review yet, for now I’ve just rated them. That’s taken some time to put single images to each book entry hehe. Soon I will start to make some revisions of my prefered books.

See my library here or at the top of the page.

Blessings!

“Will you bless me?”

Posted by Leandro, in ancient paths on July 25th, 2009

Yesterday  my order from FFI of all materials that had been left on my collection arrived. My purpose on them is to carefully study them and practise their teachings so that my future children and grandchildren don’t need to spend such energies reading so many materials about things that they should have be already living out since the beginnin, thus they would automatically fall into a waving of blessing of my own lifestyle I sorrowed through my single life. They would only have to watch me and see how things work. Thus, the spent energy for reading what I am learning right now would be redirected to God’s destiny for them. I believe that I’ve been doing a good job, while I myself am receiving His destiny for my life in the process.

The first material I read was the book “Will you bless me?”, by Neal Lozano. When I looked at it I realized it was a childish book, but when I started reading it I felt how many powerful teachings are in it. It’s everything so tender and sweet that the book quickly reached my heart. It teels the history of a father telling his daughter (Anna) the history of Jesus when he was a little young man. It shows up how Mary and Joseph tenderly Father-led blessed Jesus, while Anna’s father telled the history to her. After finishing the history, Anna tenderly asks to his dad, “Will you bless me?”. At that very moment, my heart couldn’t handle such tenderness and purity. In my isolated bedroom, on a 6-degree coldness, there I was weeping completely surrended by the tenderness and power of the blessing.

As fast as an eye’s blink, the Holy Spirit started speaking to me, “My son, that is the very exact way that will happen to your own children. You will be a blessing to them. They will grow up in grace and truth all they of their lives, simply because you love me and my love is in you. I’ve chosen you to be the best agent (father) of My love for your children this generation has ever seen.”

“Yes! Yes!” – I triumphantly replied with my red eyes. “That’s so true, Adonai! That’s my prayer, and I also pray for EVERY perfection, purity, tenderness of Jesus Christ who already lives in me be manifested in my mind and emotions. From this day on I don’t accept anything that doesn’t come from my regenerated spirit and I give you all my heart. I hate sin as you hate! And everytime I don’t see perfection, purity and tenderness of Jesus in my soul, I will hate that with all my strengths and go down to the shed blood of Yeshua to renew me and to forgive me. I pray for your power to overflow my life in the same way as the water stream  flowing abundantly through the banks of the world’s largest river! You love me so much! And I love you so much! I don’t want to hurt you, I don’t want to hurt my future wife, neither my future children. So, when the angels ask you who is your best agent on the earth, may you say ‘Leandro Maia’. With you within me I can be the best! Let’s go to the battle!”

How is it possible for me, at the age of 21, single, with no romantic expectation for the next four years (probably), to love and to pray so much for my future wife and children in which I have not even met? The only answer to that question is this: Because it comes out from my Yeshuas-regenerated spirit. How do I know that? Because it was exactly the same very kind of love (covenant) in which Yeshua loved us 2,000 years ago, dying and giving away His own life for us, even when we hadn’t existed.

Coming back to the materials, I’ve already watched the DVD teaching about Bar/Bat Barakah. I like when Williar (Audrey Meisner’s dad) is interviewing. He asks questions so relevant and important that perharps others wouldn’t do. I’ve talked about Bar Barakah with some Christian friend and I realized that there are several different kind of understandings, and we read the same book (Bar Barakah – parent’s guide to do a Christian Bar Mitzvah). However, I will still strive for the vision the Lord has been giving to me. Surely, I have a lot of projects to my own Bar Barakah (which yet I haven’t done) and to my children’s ones; I am sorrow a lot of nice things now. Another thing I received from the Lord by revelation is how to receive Shabbat at my own home. I am about to do something life-changing to my dad and it will happen in a Shabbat (God’s holy day). Soon I will write the testimonies.

As you might have realized, this experience with the Lord is the result of my correct understand of my identity as a man.

My jorney to the biblical understanding of Shabbat (the Day of the LORD) still continues… :)

Two more books to my personal library  have just arrived yesterday. They are Shabat Shalom: a practical guide to delight the Shabbat at home, by Avraham Tsvi Beuthner, and Shomer Shabat, by Isaac Dichim.

Shabat Shalom! AShomer Shabat

I have already started reading the first book, and I am enjoying it so much! There are so many things in the Scriptures I had never thought before.

The next book in my “waiting list” is Sitting at the feet of Rabbi Jesus: Hohe Jewishness of Jesus can transform you faith, by Ann Spangler and Lois Tverberg (I didn’t find it in Portuguese, just in English. Thanks to Dixon’s Family (Jacque and Miss Jocelyn) who commended it to me). I’ve read some reviews about it and I can’t wait to read it!

Thanks for reading.
