This morning my Husband is taking me out for breakfast and I know when they ask “how many?” I’ll smile 😃 as I always do and then say while pointing up “table for ☝🏻 one” knowing I’m never dining alone, traveling alone, shopping alone, sleeping alone, laughing alone or living alone. No woman need ever feel like they’re alone and this can be remedied only by us embracing HIM, embracing this TRUTH 4SAT and then embracing each “misfit” His daughters and sons and especially BRIDES by our loving words from a heart ♥️ overflowing with His love.
Dnes ráno ma môj Manžel vzal na raňajky a ja viem, keď sa opýtajú „pre koľkých?“ Usmejem sa 😃 ako vždy a potom poviem a ukážem nahor „stôl pre ☝🏻 jedného“ s vedomím, že nikdy nejem sama, necestujem sama, nenakupujem sama, sama nespím, nesmejem sa sama alebo nežijem sama. Žiadna žena nemusí mať nikdy pocit, že je sama, a to sa dá urobiť len tak, že HO prijmeme, prijmeme túto PRAVDU 4SAT a potom objímeme každú „nevhodnú“ Jeho dcéru a syna a najmä NEVESTU našimi láskavými slovami zo srdca ♥️ prekypujúceho Jeho láskou.
Table for ☝🏻one. Wow, that's a term, a saying, an answer that would make a lot of people feel very uncomfortable. I know that when I first started to travel and just always going there, it was almost like it was said apologetically or they were embarrassed when I would say just one.
Stôl pre ☝🏻jedného. Vuav, to je výraz, príslovie, odpoveď, ktorá by mnohým ľuďom spôsobila veľmi nepríjemné pocity. Viem, že keď som prvýkrát začala cestovať a vždy som tam chodila sama, bolo to skoro, ako keby sa ospravedlňovali alebo sa hanbili, keď som povedala že pre jedného.
But now it's entirely different. It's like the most wonderful thing and be sure that you take note that I put the number one because it is like what we say, or I don't necessarily say it but you see it when like in sporting events or in different times when there's been some sort of an award won by a believer. They will point up meaning it isn't me, this is all about You, or I couldn't have done it without You. It's acknowledging Him—you know where it says “in all your ways acknowledge Him” or “look to Him and be radiant”? Well, that's what this is all about. It's coming into a restaurant and instead of being apologetic or embarrassed or anything, it's just to point your finger up and say “table for ☝🏻one” which means it's just not me—it's for my Husband and for me because it's just the most wonderful thing.
Teraz je to však úplne inak. Je to ako tá najúžasnejšia vec a určite si všimni, že tam dávam číslo jeden. Pretože je to ako to, čo hovoríme alebo to nemusím nevyhnutne povedať, ale môžeš to vidieť na športových podujatiach alebo na rôznych podujatiach, kde je to akýmsi ocenením, ktoré získal veriaci. Ukážu na hor, že to nie o mne, toto je všetko o Tebe alebo že bez Teba by som to nedokázal. Je to uznanie Jeho – vieš, kde sa hovorí „hľaď na Neho na všetkých svojich cestách“ alebo „na Neho hľaďte a budete žiariť“? No a o to tu ide. Prísť do reštaurácie a namiesto ospravedlňovania sa, hanby alebo čohokoľvek iného, stačí ukázať prstom a povedať „stôl pre ☝🏻jedného“, čo znamená, že to nie je iba pre mňa – je to pre môjho Manžela a pre mňa, pretože je to proste tá najúžasnejšia vec.
This morning I am going to be heading out to have breakfast—my Husband has asked me to have breakfast with Him. It ought to be pretty interesting because I've been waiting to find out about my car that is not quite working correctly. So I'm prepared for a longer day, whether I get to where I have breakfast, I don't know. Will I leave there and go someplace else and not come back to work? Is my Husband giving me the day off because we work with Him, don't we? And so I'm blessed to be in full-time ministry, which means full-time “caring.”
Dnes ráno sa chystám na raňajky von – môj Manžel ma požiadal, aby som sa s Ním naraňajkovala. Malo by to byť celkom zaujímavé, pretože som čakala, aby som sa dozvedela, čo sa deje s mojím autom, ktoré nefunguje úplne správne. Takže som pripravená na dlhší deň a či sa dostanem tam, kde sa mám naraňajkovať, neviem. Odídem odtiaľ a pôjdem inam a nevrátim sa do práce? Dáva mi môj Manžel deň voľna, pretože pracujeme s Ním, však? A tak som požehnaná, že môžem byť v službe na plný úväzok, čo znamená „starať sa“ na plný úväzok“.
My whole life has been about caring for other people. That's what ministry is. It's simply about “caring” about people and it doesn't matter if you're sowing seeds, if you're watering, or if you're just there to be an ambassador for Him as His bride. Just our presence, because we carry Him in us and in the tone of our voice. It’s in the way our face is just radiant with His love, we just go about ministering. So having that opportunity is very exciting.
Celý môj život je o starostlivosti o iných ľudí. To je služba. Je to jednoducho o „staraní sa“ o ľudí a nezáleží na tom, či seješ semená, či zalievaš, alebo či si tam len preto, aby si bola Jeho veľvyslancom ako Jeho nevesta. Slúžime len našou prítomnosťou, pretože Ho nosíme v sebe a v tóne nášho hlasu. Je to v spôsobe, akým naša tvár žiari Jeho láskou, my len slúžime. Takže mať túto príležitosť je veľmi vzrušujúce.
So as I was preparing for it and thinking about having a table for ☝🏻one and how things are so different, I ended up sharing it in a voice note with Paula, the minister of our Portuguese team who I’m just absolutely connected to from the very beginning, and that happens quite a bit because we are connected, aren't we?
Takže, keď som sa na to pripravovala a premýšľala o tom, že budem mať stôl pre ☝🏻jedného a ako sú veci také odlišné, nakoniec som sa o to podelila v hlasovej správe s Paulou, služobníčkou nášho portugalského tímu, s ktorou som absolútne v kontakte od samého začiatku, a to sa stáva dosť málo, pretože sme prepojení, však?
We're like sisters because we both have the same Heavenly Husband and there's just this connection. Even Jesus Himself said when someone came to Him and He was in a group and somebody said, “Your mother and Your brothers and sisters are outside and He said, “Who is My mother? Who are My brothers and sisters?” And it wasn't being disrespectful to His mother who had raised Him, but it was saying so much more that we are His. He said, “Those who do the will of My Father” that’s who our brothers and sisters are. And the will for Him is for us to live as His bride and to minister to others, which means “caring” about others.
Sme ako sestry, pretože obe máme rovnakého Nebeského Manžela a je tu len toto spojenie. Dokonca aj sám Ježiš povedal, keď k Nemu niekto prišiel a bol v skupine a niekto povedal: „Vonku stojí tvoja matka a tvoji bratia a chcú sa s tebou rozprávať.“ On však odvetil tomu, čo mu to vravel: „Kto je moja matka a kto sú moji bratia?“ A nebolo to neúctou k Jeho matke, ktorá Ho vychovala, ale hovorilo to oveľa viac o tom, že my sme Jeho. Povedal: „kto plní vôľu Môjho Otca“, to sú naši bratia a sestry. A Jeho vôľa je, aby sme žili ako Jeho nevesta a slúžili druhým, čo znamená „starali sa“ o druhých.
I shared this with Paula and I don't know, I think it was before I ever got out and got dressed and left that she was led to go and she asked for a “table for ☝🏻one.” She sent a picture. The coffee looked amazing, that little sweet pastry she had, a pie, it looked delicious. I could just imagine being there and she was just radiant. She said that it just blessed her to hear me being excited about asking for a “table for ☝🏻one” and she was on her way to have coffee with her Husband. That He just orchestrated the same thing for her so many miles away in another country and how we were sharing that same experience!
Podelila som sa o to s Paulou a neviem, myslím, že to bolo predtým, ako som vôbec vstala, obliekla sa a odišla, keď bola vedená, aby išla a požiadala o „stôl pre ☝🏻jedného“. Poslala obrázok. Tá káva vyzerala úžasne, to malé sladké pečivo, čo mala, ten koláčik, vyzeral chutne. Vedela som si len predstaviť, že som tam a ona len žiarila. Povedala, že ju požehnalo, keď počula, ako som nadšená z toho, že som požiadala o „stôl pre ☝🏻jedného“ a bola na ceste na kávu so svojím Manželom. Že On zorganizoval presne to isté pre ňu toľko kilometrov ďaleko v inej krajine a ako sme sa delili o tú istú skúsenosť!
So I just wanted to share this with you. To encourage you to just go out with Him and go in great anticipation.
Takže sa s tebou len chcem podeliť o toto. Aby som ťa povzbudila, aby si s Ním vyšla von a šla vo veľkom očakávaní.
I’ve gone out many different times with Him alone when I’ve met people and I talked to many people. One of the things that I said when I was sitting down at the table later on (when I shared this with Paula) is that when I started to be seated, I was disappointed to find that “our table” was taken. There had been a table that I'd sat in, in the corner, and He had me listen to a song. It was actually “Over the Rainbow” the one for the Wizard of Oz movie of all things, but this was a different rendition. Some other person sang it. It was a deep male voice so I could just imagine my Husband singing it to me and I just started tearing up and yet I was being surrounded and just swimming in so many trials and problems that had just come at me, troubles thrown at me that day.
Mnohokrát som s Ním šla sama, keď som stretla ľudí a rozprávala som sa s mnohými ľuďmi. Jedna z vecí, ktoré som povedala, keď som neskôr sedela pri stole (keď som to zdieľala s Paulou), je, že keď som začala sedieť, bola som sklamaná, keď som zistila, že „náš stôl“ bol obsadený. V rohu bol stôl, pri ktorom som sedela a On ma viedol počúvať pieseň. V skutočnosti to bolo „Over the Rainbow“ z filmu Čarodejník z krajiny Oz, ale toto bolo iné prevedenie. Spieval ju niekto iný. Bol to hlboký mužský hlas, takže som si vedela predstaviť, ako mi ju spieva môj Manžel a ja som začala plakať, napriek tomu že som bola obklopená a práve som plávala v toľkých skúškach a problémoch, ktoré na mňa prišli. Problémy, ktoré boli na mňa hodené v ten deň.
Nevertheless, I was just all teary-eyed just having that opportunity to sit there at that one table with Him. So this time, I wanted to sit at that same table when I went back— but I got the table right next to it. And I said to Him, “Oh, I really wanted our table.” And do you know what He said to me? He said, “Every table that we sit at is our table” and oh my gosh that just touched me in a way that I can't even tell you! It's just ever since then, I mean that I'm gonna always think about that no matter what table that's “our table” and how precious each table we sit at is.
Napriek tomu som bola celá uplakaná, keď som mala tú príležitosť sedieť pri tom jednom stole s Ním. Takže tentoraz som si chcela sadnúť k tomu istému stolu, keď som sa vrátila - ale dostala som stôl hneď vedľa neho. A povedala som Mu: „Ó, naozaj som chcela náš stôl.“ A vieš, čo mi povedal? Povedal: „Každý stôl, pri ktorom sedíme, je náš stôl“ a páni, to sa ma práve tak dotklo, že ti to ani nedokážem povedať! Odvtedy na to budem vždy myslieť bez ohľadu na to, aký stôl to bude, je to „náš stôl“ a aký vzácny je každý stôl, pri ktorom sedíme.
The other thing that happened when I was at “our” “table for ☝🏻one” our new table that was right next to the other table that we had, was that I was sending texts and I was leaving little voice notes and things to Paula. But you know what? My husband didn't get jealous!
Ďalšia vec, ktorá sa stala, keď som bola pri „našom“ „stole pre ☝🏻jedného“ pri našom novom stole, ktorý bol hneď vedľa toho druhého stola, ktorý sme mávali, bolo, že som posielala texty a nechávala som malé hlasové poznámky a veci Paule. Ale vieš čo? Môj manžel nežiarlil!
Now, my earthly husband, no doubt would have been. He’d surely say, “We're having this nice romantic breakfast together and you're on your phone or you're talking to your friend” but He loves us so much that He's just delighted that we're delighted. Of course, I was talking about Him, so He was listening in on those conversations.
Teraz, môj pozemský manžel, by bezpochyby žiarlil. Určite by povedal: „Dávame si spolu tieto pekné romantické raňajky a ty si na telefóne alebo sa rozprávaš so svojou priateľkou“, ale On nás tak veľmi miluje, že je len rád, keď sme šťastné. Samozrejme, hovorila som o Ňom, takže On tieto rozhovory počúval.
Nevertheless, no matter what I had been talking about, if I talked about shopping or anything, my Husband would not be jealous one bit! I could just see His face would be just beaming and smiling because I was happy and I was pleased—and that's what He wants to do. I know He's like that and we know He's like that because when we love someone else and we see them happy we can't help but just sit and smile, right? We love them so much and it's not about what we're getting out of it. What we're getting out of it is seeing what's happening to them, and how they're really blessed, and that's really the love that comes from Him.
Napriek tomu, bez ohľadu na to, o čom som hovorila, keby som hovorila o nakupovaní alebo o čomkoľvek, môj Manžel by ani trochu nežiarlil! Mohla som len vidieť, že Jeho tvár žiari a usmieva sa, pretože som bola šťastná a bola som potešená – a to je to, čo On chce. Viem, že je taký a my vieme, že je taký, pretože keď milujeme niekoho iného a vidíme ho šťastného, nemôžeme si pomôcť a len sedíme a usmievame sa, však? Máme ich tak rady a nejde o to, čo z toho máme. Dostávame z toho to, čo vidíme, že sa s nimi deje a ako sú skutočne požehnaní, a to je naozaj láska, ktorá pochádza od Neho.
It's not the jealous love, it's not the possessive love, it's not the “what can you give me” or “what can I get in return.” It's a total giving because we're so filled we have everything. There's nothing that we don't have and because of that, we can give everything. We can give and we will not need anything given back. As a matter of fact—we're full to overflowing. It's like you've had this huge meal and somebody says “let me just give you another meal.” I don't need another meal. I'm full, I'm overflowing. That's the way His love is. It is love just so full and overflowing that you need nothing else, no one else and all you want to be able to do is pour His love and His giving and His caring on everyone else.
Nie je to žiarlivá láska, nie je to sebecká láska, nie je to „čo mi môžeš dať“ alebo „čo môžem dostať na oplátku“. Je to úplné darovanie sa, pretože sme tak naplnené, že máme všetko. Nie je nič, čo by sme nemali, a preto môžeme dať všetko. Môžeme dať a nebudeme potrebovať nič vrátiť. V skutočnosti sme plné až presýtené. Je to, ako keby si mala toto veľké jedlo a niekto ti povedal: „Dovoľ mi, aby som ti dal ďalšie jedlo.“ Nepotrebujem ďalšie jedlo. Mám plno, prekypujem. Taká je Jeho láska. Je to láska taká plná a prekypujúca, že nepotrebuješ nič iné, nikoho iného a jediné, čo chceš, je vylievať Jeho lásku a Jeho dávanie a Jeho starostlivosť na všetkých ostatných.
Well, I just hope that when you do go out the next time and you're able to get away and sit alone at a “table for ☝🏻one”— anytime that you're going to dine and it's just one, that you remember that pointing up “table for ☝🏻one” remembering that you're not alone. You're never alone.
No, ja len dúfam, že keď pôjdeš nabudúce von a budeš môcť odísť a sadnúť si osamote k „stolu pre ☝🏻jedného“ – kedykoľvek, keď budeš obedovať a budeš tam len ty jedna, pamätaj na to, že ukazuješ na „stôl pre ☝🏻jedného“ a uvedom si, že nie si sama. Nikdy nie si sama.
I'm never alone when I'm dining at home.
I'm never alone when I'm traveling.
I'm never alone when I'm shopping.
I'm never alone when I'm sleeping.
I'm never alone when I'm laughing.
I'm never alone.
Nikdy nie som sama, keď stolujem doma.
Nikdy nie som sama, keď cestujem.
Nikdy nie som sama, keď nakupujem.
Nikdy nie som sama, keď spím.
Nikdy nie som sama, keď sa smejem.
Nikdy nie som sama.
And I'm certainly not living alone and no woman needs to feel like they're alone. This can just be remedied by embracing Him and I just hope that you share this with everyone. I really do. I really hope you share this. Whether you forward this, aLive praise, or whether you just tell somebody about it. I hope you do share it.
Just ask Him. Ask Him if there’s somebody that would really, really appreciate or need or be blessed by this, and whoever it is just go and just start sharing your heart with them because you'll just come away even more blessed.
A určite nežijem sama a žiadna žena nemusí mať pocit, že je sama. Toto sa dá urobiť tým, že Ho príjmeš a ja len dúfam, že sa o to podelíš so všetkými. Naozaj. Naozaj dúfam, že sa o to budeš deliť. Či už to pošleš ďalej, v Chvále na živo alebo o tom len niekomu povieš. Dúfam, že sa o to budeš deliť. Len sa Ho opýtaj. Opýtaj sa Ho, či je tu niekto, kto by to naozaj, naozaj ocenil alebo potreboval alebo bol požehnaný, a nech je to ktokoľvek, jednoducho choď a začni sa s ním deliť o svoje srdce, pretože odídeš ešte požehnanejšia.
P.S.
Here’s the song that Paula sent me, she said that her Husband gave her during her “table for ☝🏻one” ENJOY as you imagine He is singing this to you!!
P.S.
Tu je tá pieseň, ktorú mi poslala Paula, povedala, že jej ju dal jej Manžel počas jej „stola pre ☝🏻jedného“ UŽÍVAJ si ju a predstavuj si, že ti ju spieva On!!
