Today's Thought- Trust in the word of God

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. - 1 Corinthians 10:13  

   Many times in our life we face temptations which remove our faith.  Many times we reach the situation where we won’t able to bear any more under such circumstances God tells you that “no temptation taken you but such as is common to man”. When you face problems and struggles in your life continuously what are you doing?  Are you tired of thinking about your problems and talking about it?  Or you are looking unto God with faith, that Jesus will remove it.  If you go on thinking about your problems then the struggles will never see the end. 

   Once Amalekites captured the wives, sons and daughters of David and his people, who were with him.  “Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep.    And David's two wives were taken captives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.  And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.” (1Sam 30:4-6)  David and the people who were with him, looked at their problems and were crying without any hope.  Because of this they could not find any results for their problems. 

   However David trusts in the word of Lord. The Word of God says “David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.”   David got back everything that he lost when he looked unto God, without looking in to the problems.  

  our problems may seem huge in front of us today.  But in the eyes of God it is nothing.  God can do everything in our life.  He can deliver us at once.   But we have to trust on him and look upon God.  His wishes us to look at Him and not our problems.  Therefore ever our problems seem to remove our faith, look unto God without looking at our problems.  God hasn't forgotten us.  He hasn't left us alone. 

  

   We must remember that his eyes are upon us.  Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)(Heb 10:23)  Satan is stealing our faith.  We are unable to speak faith words because of this.  When we speak faith words he is showing us our circumstances.  Don’t doubt God’s help, but believe in God’s word which tells about our situation and confess it.  Our God is faithful, He will not allow us the temptation more than we can bear, God will also give us a way to escape from that temptation and we will be able to endure it.  Confess this, we will see the miracle now.  Because HE hath set his love upon us, therefore will we trust Him: HE will set us on high, because we have known HIS name.    He shall call upon us, and we will answer HIM..In our trouble, HE will deliver us, and we honour HIM.

May god Bless You

To avoid Family crack

                                                              

                                                             

 All families are different, and all families have their own issues, but with the right amount of work and determination, you can make your family life the very best it can be, by developing your relationships and learning more about yourself and your relatives. No one's family life is perfect; but We can make ours good with considering the  following :

Understanding our family well. 

If we don't understand then there can be many misunderstandings and fights. Be with them whenever we can and get to know them better. A lot of families now don't get to know each other too well because they're too busy. Plan some family time, like, a movie, or a family game, or even as little as eating dinner together.

Respecting our Family:

Our children, your wife/husband are now yours but remember at the end of the day they are also humans. They also have an opinion or suggestion. Sometimes it can be bad or good. We should never be angry with someone's opinion, they have their own opinions. No one is s perfect.

1    Being polite to our family is the first step for respecting them. It also means learning how to disagree and listen to each other even when upset

2    We must remember to Say "please" and "thank you" and “excuse me” etc to all even to our family members.  It's important to pay attention to the tone we’re using when talking to family our members.

3    We must talk about our feelings instead of pointing      blame.

4  Listen to what the other person say. Listening is the                     powerful gift from god

5   We must not shout or get wild if any one does wrong     thing

6          We must ready to change our mind

Giving time to our family. 

      No one wants to be ignored just for some meeting or work. We must give time to each and every one of them so we can understand every individual properly and this can prevent any misunderstandings in the future.

Treating everyone as equal. 

    Whether its our maid or stepchild, they also deserve love and affection from you as you deserve from your wife/husband or from your own child. We must treat everyone like us, and getting along with our family should be easy

Never shouting at any one:

    This can create hatred for you in their hearts. By simply making them understand can do a lot.

If we have difficulty with anger problems, we may have a temper, or losing our patience and expressing our anger ineffectively, can strain our personal and work relationships. Finding ways to control our temper and reduce outbursts of anger may improve the quality of our life and our interpersonal relationship

Never discriminate any one even family members.

We must learn to compromise people including our family members.

Helping to each other.

     When any one needs our help, including our aged parents we must, help them. Doing little things such as holding the door for them, or helping someone with homework.

Organizing surprise birthday parties and celebrating any individual's achievements can really help.

Avoid using offensive and abusive words against each other or our family will get cross and start shouting at us.

Sometimes teenagers can feel sad or lonely. 

   First ask them about it and if they don't want to share then it’s OK. If we think that something is really bad, ask their close friends and help him/her

We should never ever break any promise. 

   This can hurt them or make them feel that we are a liar and every time will break promises.

We must learn to Forgive

    Forgiveness is great gift from god. If done thoughtfully and effectively, it will transform the way we think, feel, and live our life. By taking action, changing our thoughts, shifting our emotions and seeking guidance from numerous valuable sources we will know how to forgive others, and ourselves.

Make them realize in an easy way.

    If someone in our family has done something wrong or have betrayed our trust, make them realize their mistake in an easy way. We shout not yell or use abusive language. 

Parental care to our children

1       Spend time with each other

2       Support our family members' interests

3      Offer comfort when someone is sad.

4      Being Respectful to our Kids    

5      Learn our family members' love languages.

       Giving gifts, calling their pet names and               affectionate touches and kisses etc

6     Offer encouragement to kids.
7.   Set boundaries for our child. Tell them to   cleaning their rooms etc in polite word instead of  putting harsh word.

      Compromise is the most valuable tool we have.

  If our teenager feels reluctant to talk to us, he or she                    may be upset about something or being bullied. Ask if everything is okay and win over their trust.

·         When someone ask us to do his/her work try to do it at that time itself. We should not postpone it.

·         If the work is really important then try to make them understand and promise about next time.

·         Always learn to forgive when we get into a fight with our parents. Just tell them sorry, kiss them, hug them, and make them to know how much we love them.

·         Don't upset them by telling them you don't belong in the family or no one loves you. Apologize to them no matter how bad the scolding gets and hug or kiss them. They will calm down.

·         Do not get upset when our mum/dad is telling us something and we think they are shouting at us because they are trying to teach us something important.

·         Try to be supportive and encouraging!

        Avoiding Angry mood and actions

Understanding each others responsibilities
Minding our human behavior- will make happy family.

Simple Tricks at the Kitchen- easy our work

SOFTEN BUTTER IN A JIFFY

Who has the time to soften butter on the kitchen counter for an hour? Try slicing it with a cheese grater or simply put it in a plastic bag and flatten it with a rolling pin instead.

EMOVE POMEGRANATE SEEDS

Don't dye your hands with pomegranate juice doing this. Rather remove the cone of the fruit with a knife and then slice it along the ridges. Now you can easily detach the seeds without crushing them.

DE-SKIN POTATOES WITHOUT A PEELER

Boil the potatoes and immediately transfer them to a ice bath. After a few minutes, the skin will chip off at corners, allowing you to pick it right off. 

ICE-CREAM CONE TO REMOVE SEEDS

Make use of the sharp edge of an ice-cream cone to scoop off the seeds and fiber portions of vegetables like squash, pumpkins and papayas. It's much less messy an affair than using your hands or a spoon.  

MAKE YOUR OWN BUTTERMILK

Wanna make a fluffy pancake or sourdough bread, but don't have buttermilk at home? Don't worry. Add a tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to regular milk — the product will be less creamy than the market variety, but serve your purpose all the same. 

PIT STONE FRUITS WITHOUT DIFFICULTY

Remove the pit stone from fruits like plum and nectarines by cutting them into two equal halves and twisting it in opposite directions. Either use your thumb or a butter knife to gently pop out the pit. 

KEEP BANANAS FRESH FOR LONGER PERIODS

Wrap the bananas in cellophane to keep the fruits fresher for long as it prevents the fruits from emitting ethylene, which ripens them faster.

SPEED UP RIPENING

On the contrary, to ripen a banana, wrap them in a paper bag: the concentrated ethylene will help in expediting the ripening process. 

PEEL GARLIC WITH EASE

After removing the cloves from the bulb, thump each piece with the side of a chef’s knife to peel off the skin conveniently.

KEEP POTATOES FROM DISCOLORING

Prevent peeled or sliced potatoes from turning brownish or greyish by soaking them in cold water, which stops the release of a starch that causes oxidation.

SOLIDIFY MELTED BUTTER

Keep the melted butter in a small bowl and then place the bowl in a larger vessel filled with ice and cold water.

AKE A PERFECT POACHED EGG

Use a metal mesh strainer to remove excess egg white before gently lowering it into the salted water to make that perfectly poached egg. 

TURN CITRUS FRUITS EVEN JUCIER

Make the most of those citrus fruits while extracting juice. All you need to do is refrigerate and then microwave the fruits for 15-20 seconds to get the maximum output. Also, try using a pair of tongs, rather than your hands, for squeezing out the juices.

PIT AND PEEL AVOCADO LIKE A PRO

Pit an avocado by cutting it lengthwise into four quarters — the pit would fall off by itself. Now, gently move a knife under the tip of skin of each section, it will peel off like a banana.

BROWNIES WITHOUT CRUMBS

Make sure to coat the pan and the parchment paper (baking paper) with cooking oil or butter to save brownies from getting stuck on baking pan. It will make your life easier when you try to remove the brownies from the pan.

DON'T CRY WHILE CHOPPING ONIONS

Keep the onions in the freezer for half an hour before slicing them. In case you are on a tight schedule, keep a bread slice partially sticking out of your mouth so that the bread absorbs the gas before it reaches the eyes. 

SLOW DOWN TOMATO ROTTING

To give a longer life to tomatoes, don’t detach tomato stems and store them at room temperature. Also, keep the tomato stem end down, which prevents air from entering and moisture from exiting from the scar where the tomato once attached to the vine. 

PIT CHERRIES WITH EASE

This is a bit time consuming, yet cleaner way of pitting cherries. Place the cherries one at a time on top of an empty beer bottle and use a chopstick to push the pit into the bottle.

PEEL GINGER SKIN WITHOUT PEELER

Use a spoon to scrape off the papery skin of ginger; just make sure not to scrape off any flesh though. 

DE-CRYSTALLIZE HONEY

Simply place the jar containing crystallized honey in a vessel filled with hot water for 10 minutes, the honey is ready to be used again. 

SAVE APPLES FROM BROWNING

Prevent apple slices, or for that matter any cut fruit, from browning by squeezing some lemon juice on it or by applying a mixture of one part honey with two parts water to slow down the oxidation process that causes discoloring. 

SEPARATE YOLKS FROM WHITES

This method would take some practice, but once mastered, would work like magic. Gently press a plastic bottle over the yolk of a broken egg. The air pressure created inside the bottle will promptly suck in the yolk, separating it from the white. 

DE-KERNEL A COB OF CORN

Fix the pointy end of the cob on the hole of a bundt pan. Use a knife to gently slice the kernels in a downward motion. 

GRATE CHEESE HASSLE-FREE

Softer cheeses like fontina and fresh mozzarella are often messy when grated. Tide over this problem by putting them in the freezer for half an hour before grating. 

CHECK EGGS' FRESHNESS

Gently place the egg in a bowl of cold water: if it readily sinks to the bottom and lies on one side, its fresh; if it takes time to sink or worse still, floats, it's high time you toss them in the bin as they are past their edible stage. 

DEAL WITH HARD-TO-OPEN JARS

Use a rubber band to wrap the lid as it will offer you extra grip. If it still doesn’t work, cover the band with a cloth and try again.

REMOVE EGGSHELL PIECES

Use a broken egg shell to scoop up tiny pieces of eggshells dropped in a bowl of cracked eggs. The shell attracts the shell bits like a magnet without wasting much egg.

MEASURE STICKY SUBSTANCES WITH EASE

Dip the measuring spoon into hot water or cooking oil before measuring viscous stuff like molasses and honey. The oil or water will help the entire thing slide off without leaving a mess. 

COOK A WHOLE BIRD EVENLY

Don't forget to ice the breast of the chicken or turkey before cooking as this portion cooks faster than thigh meat. Icing the breast will help to cook the whole bird evenly.

PEEL CITRUS FRUITS EASILY

Citrus fruits like sweet lemon or oranges can be peeled off easily by rolling them with mild pressure or by microwaving them for a few seconds beforehand.

COOL YOUR DRINKS QUICKLY

Got surprise guests at home and no chilled soda in the fridge to offer? Just grab your favorite drink, wrap it with a wet paper towel and stick it in the freezer; 15 minutes later, you have a chilled bottle.

CHILLED WINE ON THE GO

Pop some frozen grapes in your glass of wine to get chilled wine within minutes.

DE-STALK STRAWBERRIES WITH A STRAW

Take a straw and press it through the bottom of a strawberry until it reaches the top and takes off the hull (white stem). Any remaining leaves can be removed by hands. 

PEEL MANY BOILED EGGS AT ONCE

Put the hard-boiled eggs in a lidded container and shake vigorously. The shells will come off and you have eggs ready for a salad. 

USE PARCHMENT PAPER FOR MUFFINS

If you forget to buy muffin liners, there's no need to worry. Use parchment paper (baking paper) instead to make your muffins impressive. Spray each paper properly and press the squares into each hole, folding the sides as needed to create flat walls.

EGGSHELL REMOVAL MADE EASY

Add a spoon of baking soda or vinegar to the water before boiling eggs. The substances permeate the eggshell, helping the egg white separate from the shell. 

COOK SCRAMBLED EGGS IN MICROWAVE

Crack an egg in a coffee mug and pierce the yolk. Make sure you lightly coat the sides with cooking oil and power it on high in a microwave. You have gourmet scrambled eggs within seconds.

PERFECT ICED COFFEE

Pour coffee in a ice cube tray and freeze them into cubes. Next time you want that perfect iced coffee, toss a couple of those cubes into your glass, without the fear of watering down the coffee. 

KEEP KNIVES SHARP

Always store knives blade-side down in a knife block to prevent them from dulling. Also, after chopping, use the back of a knife, rather than the blade side, to transfer food to a container to keep it from dulling fast. 

USE SHOWER CAPS CREATIVELY

Though not mentioned in cookbooks, still plastic wraps or tin foils can be replaced with a shower cap to protect food from contamination and flies. What more, the caps are reusable and need not be regularly replaced like plastic or tin foil wraps
