Real life stories

To begin with, these are the first chapters of “Real life stories” for the year 2019. In it we decided to start by thanking the Lord and presenting, in the form of family planning, the goals we want to achieve during the year. Dates in parentheses represent when these goals were completed. On the other hand, not all goals were considered completed, and we decided to keep them that way to better approximate real life.

My father!

What an incredible wedding! The Lord must have seen it and been proud! And He should… it was infinitely better than we imagined. Firstly, I can only be grateful for the dedicated husband that the Lord gave me: he took care of everything while I looked beautiful 😊 I got nervous at the last second and the Lord granted me my heart’s desire: I could see everything outside before After entering, I didn’t miss any details! I got emotional and cried a lot! It was beautiful.

On the other hand, a lot of people we called didn’t go, but we believe they were there and should have been there. Furthermore, our groomsmen complained that we didn’t sit down with them to eat (a tip for brides-to-be), and we really missed that. After all, our goal was to take as few photos as possible and be with our loved ones, but we got tangled up and ended up wasting a lot of time.

Then we spent our honeymoon at the Sleep Inn that Mandy and Ly paid for because they were horrified that we hadn’t planned it…and we went to Morro de São Paulo on Sunday morning. What an incredible trip! It was wonderful and in our own way: we walked and enjoyed lots of beaches and good food! We didn’t even want to go back. Of course we discussed it too, after all, I’m in the process. And even that was good for bringing us closer together.

Well, I can’t say exactly when or why, but we started thinking about Italy and citizenship. This was at the beginning of January. I remember sleeping and waking up with the idea of ​​talking to Jo about how he got there, asking for tips. He was super attentive, despite it being many years since we had had close contact, and spoke openly about everything, including that the citizenship process in Italy is much faster and safer. Most important, we prayed and talked a lot and then we decided to go there.

Afterwards, we put our plans before the Lord and the bike that had been on sale since last year was sold for R$2,000 the week we prayed and decided to go. I believe it was your first sign. Our first step was to renew our passports and we have already done so. We sold the XBox One today, in a record sale: he offered it today and sold it at the company. We are going to sell the car tomorrow and we need your direction for the entire negotiation.

In the meantime, the house gave us some problems: the leaky tank, the bathroom floors that bulged and broke, the living room wall was peeling off, figures and noises around the house (even Eli saw it and warned us), us arguing about things. silly, anyway… we pray and cast out all interference and evil spirits, in the name of Jesus. We want PEACE until we leave. We need our Guard of ISRAEL, our ELOHIM and Adonai, our El-Elion, Jehovah Rafa, to protect, guard, guide and instruct us.

Thank you for being so good to us and for all the blessings we are receiving. Finally, we would like to thank you for going to Italy together and for the 10 thousand euros raised, for tickets, housing, employment and citizenship.

In conclusion, with this purpose in mind, may it all be for Your honour and Glory. In the name of Jesus, amen!
