Where Are You Going?

Hey, Gabriel Guys!  Today we're going to talk about the third of the three most important questions of life: Where am I going?  (If you missed the first two questions, click on the title to read them: Who am I? and Why am I here?
Okay. Let's talk about the reason you are here on this earth. If you've studied the theory of evolution, you've been taught that you are here by random chance or by accident. This is one of the worst lies that has ever been perpetrated in human history.  The truth is you are here by design and your Designer is God Himself.



Let's take a look at Psalm 139: 13-16:

For you formed my inward parts;
you knitted me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works;
my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from you,
when I was being made in secret,
intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed substance;
in your book were written, every one of them,
the days that were formed for me,
when as yet there was none of them.

 Is that awesome or what? God even says He has a special book (verse 16) just for you in which He wrote down every day you would live and what He wanted you to do on each day. This record is called your purpose or your destiny.

It is up to each one of us to discover the destiny for which God has created us. Here is a simple prayer you can pray:

Papa God, thank You for creating me with a destiny that you recorded in my own personal book in Heaven. I choose today to agree with Your destiny for me, even though I don't yet know what it is. But I trust You and ask that You would guide me in fulfilling everything that You've written down for me in my book. I ask this in the Name of Jesus. Thank You, Papa. Amen. 

The next time Satan tempts you to feel that you are a big nothing with no purpose, remind him of Psalm 139. Then thank God for leading you, day by day, into His great destiny for you!

Why Are You Here?

Hey, Gabriel Guys! Today we're going to tackle the second most important question of life: Why am I here?

Last week we answered the question Who am I? If you missed that post, you can read it by clicking here. 


So, why are you here? That's a pretty important question to answer, right?

Maybe you haven't thought about that question much. Maybe you've been taught that you just happened to land here by random chance, as a product of Darwinian evolution. Well, if this describes you, let me show you the truth.


 In Psalm 139: 16 God says that the days of your life were all prepared by Him before you ever lived a single day of them. Do you realize what that means? It means that God created you for a specific purpose and He planned out that purpose even before you were born! Is that amazing or what! 
 
So, the truth is that you are here for a special purpose. What is that purpose?

 To discover your purpose, you will need to get to know Jesus Christ. Why? Because He created you and He knows the purpose for which He created you. As a result, He will lead you into that purpose.

 So to discover why you are here, discover Jesus Christ. If you already know Him, ask Him what your purpose is. If you don’t already know Him, pray this simple prayer:

 Lord Jesus, I want to get to know You. Come into my life. I receive You as my Savior and Lord. Show me the purpose for which You created me. Amen.

 If you prayed this prayer, please write to me at drmaryann@maryanndiorio.com to let me know. I will send you a little booklet that will help you get to know Jesus better.  You may also leave a comment in the box below.

 Do you have any questions or comments about Life Question Two? If so, please share your thoughts in the comment box below. Thanks! :)

The 3 Most Important Questions of Life

Hey, Gabriel Guys,

 Life can be boiled down to answering three very important questions:

1-Who am I?
2-Why am I here?
3-Where am I going?


For the next three blog posts, we're going to take a look at each of these questions. Today we'll start with Who am I?  

Do you know who you are? I don't mean your name, what family you live in, what school you attend. I mean, Do you know who you REALLY are? 

This is the first life question that each of us must answer. But where do we find the answer to this question?

Psalm 139 is a great starting point. Let's take a look at verses 13-16:

 For You created my inmost being;
    You knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    Your works are wonderful,
    I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from You
    when I was made in the secret place,
    when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed body;
    all the days ordained for me were written in Your book
    before one of them came to be.

In this passage, we find some answers to who you really are:

1-You are a creation of God (v. 13). He made you and knit you together in your mother's womb.

2-You are "fearfully and wonderfully made" (v. 14). Fearfully here means awesomely. You are awesome!    

3-You were made for a purpose. All the days of your life were planned ahead of time (v. 16).

The Gospel of John, chapter 1, verse 12 gives more insight as to who you really are.  When you accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord, you became a son of God.  

So, to put it all in one sentence, you are an awesome son of God, created by Him for a great purpose. 

The world will try to tell you that you got here by chance, that you are nothing more than an accident. This is a lie spawned by Darwinian evolutionism. 

The truth is that you are not here by chance. God wanted you and created you with a great purpose. As you seek Him, He will reveal that purpose to you, and you will find great fulfillment and joy in living it.

In our next post, we'll take a look at how to discover your
purpose by answering our next question: Why am I here?

How to Win a Girl’s Heart

Hey, Gabriel Guys,

 I once heard a guy say, “Girls! Can’t live with them. Can’t live without them.” 

 Does this describe you? If so, you’ve probably wondered at times how girls tick. Why are they so hard to understand? Why do you have so much trouble with them?

As a grown girl, let me share a few tips for winning a girl’s heart. 

 1-Treat your special girl with great dignity and respect. Always speak kindly to her. Open doors for her. Talk to her about what interests her. Put her needs above your own. Remember that God made girls equal in value but different in function. 

2. Don’t expect a girl to think the way you think. Here’s a visual for you: A guy’s mind is like a set of boxes. A guy focuses on one box at a time while he thinks. A girl’s mind, on the other hand, is like a bowl of spaghetti. Every part of her mind is connected to the other parts. So she has the ability to think about a lot of things at the same time. This is the reason her mind may go from one thing to another very quickly, while your mind is running out of breath keeping up with her. God made girls this way so they can run a home--or an organization--with great skill. Just think of what your mom does! :)

 3. Remember that girls are emotional creatures. They were created to bring love into the world. They are creatures of the heart before they are creatures of the head. This does not mean they have no brains. On the contrary, girls have brilliant minds. In addition, they have a sixth sense that guys do not have. Girls have intuition. This means they can know things with their heart that make so sense to the mind.

 Intuition is a gift God has given women so they can help others by alerting them to problems and giving them good advice. Many husbands, for example, are thankful to their wives for this gift that has saved them from serious problems.

4. A girl wants a guy to be a strong leader who will lead God’s way. What is God’s way of leading? It is the way of servanthood. Jesus said if you want to be great, you must first be a servant (Matthew 20: 26). So, if you want to be great in a girl’s eyes, begin to serve her.

 Guys are not better than girls. Both guys and girls are equal in God’s eyes. They just have different functions in God’s plan. 

 When you respect a girl as being your equal in worth and value; when you begin to treat her with dignity; and when you understand that she is brilliant in her own right, you will begin to win a girl’s heart.
