We have dreams and hearts desires and wants. We can plan to go after our dreams and wants but if it is not God's plan it will not come to pass, since God controls it all and He has the final say and his purpose and plan for our lives is so much better than our own desires.
This is something we have experienced in our lives (my family) but we are OK with it and we trust it, since we can see now that Gods plan was better than our own desired destination.
I trust God with all my heart and I ask God for many things, but I also say "Let your will be done not mine" since I don't want anything that God does not think it's good for me since I know that He has a plan for me and His plan is better than mine.
I have always believed in the bible and I have always believed and trusted God in directing my steps and always will. God has always been my provider, my healer, my strength, my comfort, my hope, my salvation.
One of the thing that I always believed and tried to live by is that you rest on the seventh day, which is Sunday for myself, it might be different for other religions or beliefs.
This is why I have not been posting any posts here on steemit on Sundays. Even though I don't really think of Steemit as work, because I just love doing it, but because I do receive an income from it, I treat is as work.
This is just my beliefs and I just hope that this will not stop you from reading this post any further or give a helping hand.

Every Sunday I will make a simple post sharing the word of God, just like I did above, because I love sharing the word of God with others because it has really helped me and my family and really changed my life so I would love to share this with others and maybe it can be very helpful to you and inspire you.
All of the proceedings, 100% of the earnings on these GivingBackSunday will be split between the two amazing projects and people who have inspired me in a great way and I would like to contribute to that, but I will need your HELP because with your upvote you will make a difference and change someone's life for the better.
I'm not asking for donations, which if you would like to make you can go directly @familyprotection and @gratefulvibes, but really all I would like to ask you is your upvotes that will help not one, not two, but three different projects. All upvotes count and by upvoting, you are really making a huge difference and we really appreciate your kind and loving hearts.

Even if you don't believe in the bible, please don't let that stop you from doing good in the world. It's those small steps that count, it doesn't have to be anything big.
A lot of times we hesitate or don't think that those little things can change someone's life, or make any difference and this is the biggest mistake we make because it is those small, those tiny things that make the difference.
A simple smile can make someone's day or even change how they think of themselves, simple kind words can change someone's life even when we don't think anything about it, a warm hug, or a simple call can change life, a simple upvote that we sometimes think of should I, it will not make a big difference can change someone's life.
Let me explain a little about the two different projects that I mentioned above.
@FAMILYPROTECTION is just one of the best projects here created by @canadian-coconut and @markwhittam who are both just beautiful and lovely people who fight against families being destroyed by the social services. I absolutely love what this @familyprotection is doing and how it is a voice and support and huge help to those going through having their families taken apart.

Another fantastic project that is dear to my heart and of course it has to do with kids is @GRATEFULVIBES created by a very kind and sweet @paradise-found. #Gratefulvibes is hands down the best challenge here in this community that can change your life for the better.

I love how by making this community a better place, @paradise-found is making the difference by helping WWH2H which is a Christian Ministry in Honduras. This is amazing. @paradise-found will donate 50% of his posts rewards of his 70-day #gratefulvibes challenge to these kids in the orphanage in Honduras that includes a medical clinic, and bilingual schools. Here is the link to his post.

I am a great supporter of @familyprotection who is working very hard to help the families stay together and this project is the most amazing project that I would suggest for everyone on this steemit community to check it out and support it and by doing it we are helping people in need who are trying to keep their kids safe from being taken away (kidnapped) by the Social Services. Here is the link Click here
I am also a part of one of the most amazing projects here on steemit and that is #gratefulvibes project where you can also join @gratefulvibes Discord chat group, where we support the newcomers and just have an amazing time.

You have a good heart @joalvarez and the words of God flows from your words. But our Sabbath is Jesus Himself and not a day in the calendar. So if we are in the domain of Jesus we will rest all the days of our lives until salvation.
I sgree with you on this one my dear friend, sometimes even the most sincere wish will not be granted because God knows it will not be good for us, we just need to learn to always wait for HIS perfect timing, everything happens for a reason so let's always look at the brighter side of everything especially when the outcome is something we do not expect to happen...
Have a Great Day Ms. Jo.... And God Bless You More and More... 😘😊
