Faith like a Mustard Seed

KARLA ROCHELLE FÄLDT·THURSDAY, 29 OCTOBER 2015

I have been Writing a book since 2015-June-15 about my Life living in Faith.

It has been my desire to write this book for a long time ago. Although I write blogs about my self, my family and my country, I grew strongly in those years. Recently in 2010 when I became a real Christian, I learned many things in life which I thought I knew. It had changed me tremendously and also it made me a stronger person in Faith.

God had inspired me since 2010 to write this book but for some reason, I couldnt write it then because God was not finished in molding me for those years. I was under the discipline of God so that I will not be a hypocrite to write this book, as I would share my story. It took five years later before I finally unlocked the key of my life as God delivered me from all evil. I am not perfect, but by the fear of God in me, I learned to be disciplined and obey. Although, I cannot convince people, to me it does not matter because what matters most now is that I could tell the world that My God is Real...

In this book “Faith like a Mustard Seed”, it will be a long journey of telling a story from my childhood years up to this present. I am making an announcement for those whom will be involved in this book to be aware that I will be publishing my True to Life Story and theoritically, it will be registered in bookstores and in the libraries in Sweden and maybe across the internet which will be open for public with purpose of my Faith to Jesus Christ.

I hereby announce that every detail such names, places, feelings, emotions, words will be written in according to the truthful information of my life. Please take note that my purpose of this book is not to shame those involved but to encourage people to change and turn themselves to God and have faith in Jesus Christ. A faith changing to those whom have been into this kind of situation: child abuse, trauma, sexual abuse, drug abuse, drunkenness, prostitution, rejection, verbal abuse, failed, relationships, anger, hatred, failed marriage,adultery, depression, trauma, stress, fear, anxiety, loneliness, suicidal thoughts, envy, jealousy, lies.... This book will be publish for the purpose of Faith and changing lives. My intention is to encourage and as to witness what God has done to my life. For I am not perfect, no one on earth is perfect. Romans 3:23 ESV/ For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, but only I am justified by faith

Luke 5:32 ESV/ I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.”

Mark 2:17 ESV/ And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.”

With this note:

I would like to make the list below of all the people involved.

The Seminiano Family: Wilma “Baby”, Myrasol “Myra”, Jenalyn “Jing”, Bubot and to my Aunt Wilma H.

Sensitive details: Old Johnny, Johnny E., Dante T., Bubot, Mariano C.

My Family: Gilbert, Rubin, Ronalyn, Dominador, Eleonor, Paulene, Benny and the kids

Others: Rodel P, Nicasio DS, Kim L, Julieta Cambri, Jeannette M., Scarlette “Kaye”, Mary Grace, Michelle C “Venus”, Michelle LA, Jennifer C,Bernadette D.

This are the names that I think will appear on the book.But of course, for some reason of senstivity of details, I will not put the real names of the people to protect their identity and integrity. With due respect for their families, I will find nick names for some characters that are very sensitive in details. The book will be published when I am done writing it but otherwise, I would just like you all to be aware that your names are involved in my Faith like a Mustard Seed.

If there are any complaints or requests of name changing, I can put initials on your names by request. Just send me a message and I will take note!

God Bless you and May the goodness, love and mercy of the Lord guide you in life everyday.

Yours Truly

Do not be conformed by this world. Keep away from holloween

Jesus Followers must not Celebrate Holloween. Because it glorifies the devil. And God has nothing to do with it.
..end..period...


1.God is a God of life, but Halloween focuses on death. Should I celebrate a holiday where people decorate their front yards with tombstones? Creeps and weird..

2.The Scriptures tell us to put away deeds of darkness (Rom.13:12) and that light has nothing in common with darkness (2 Cor. 6:14). Is celebrating a dark holiday something a child of the light should be doing?

3.I had been delivered from fear and panic attacks and knew that fear comes from the enemy. Should I participate in a holiday that has fear as its very foundation? Where it creates fear and panic and death while you walk? Worst than a dead person. Even the dead don't do that.
As in the light, God said be strong and courageous.
    Joshua 1:9
Have not I commanded you? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be you dismayed: for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go
 Is there any love in screaming death and bloody thing to people?
    2 Timothy 1:7
For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.

4..Witchcraft is clearly detestable to the Lord (Deut 18:10-13). Shouldn’t something that glorifies witchcraft (just take a walk through the Halloween store) be detestable to me as well?”

5.Halloween is a sacred, high holiday for Wiccans (the official religion of witchcraft). Is this a holiday Christians should celebrate alongside Wiccans?
    3 John 1:11
Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God.
  1 Peter 2:9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

6.Is it cute when we dress our kids like the devil (or witches, ghouls, scary characters, etc.)? Isn’t it, well, demonic?
Is this the way you want to teach your kids? To become worshippers of the devil? Well. Isn't it cute?
While the bible says:
    Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.


7.What if my child dresses in a wholesome fireman costume? Romans 16:19 says that we need to be wise to what is good and innocent of evil. If I let him participate in Halloween, even while dressed as a fireman, aren’t I sending him a mixed message by allowing him to participate in a celebration of evil?
  2 Corinthians 11:14
And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.

8.The Lord said in 2 Cor. 6:17, “Come out from them and be separate … Touch no unclean thing …” Doesn’t God want His children to be set apart from the world and from sin and evil? Aren’t we supposed to be peculiar people?

9.My extended family thinks it’s ridiculous that we not allow our son to dress up for Halloween. Should their opinions matter to me more than God’s? Shouldn’t pleasing God be my utmost concern?
  1 John 3:10
By this the children of God are distinguished from the children of Satan: No one who does not do righteousness, neither loves his brother, is from God.
   2 Corinthians 4:4
In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

10.If there is even a question in my heart and mind that it might be wrong, shouldn’t that be my first clue? Why would I continue to do so with even a lingering thought that it is wrong?
So, I have decided a long time ago that I will not give a place or opportunity to the devil to take me or any of my kids or any of my family.
  Ephesians 4:27
27 and do not give the devil a foothold

11.Does Halloween bring glory to God? No! It glorifies the devil! Nuff said.


This world is filled with sensuality.
The sense of what they see, hear and talk and they walk the worldly ways.
Telling their mind it's human.
   Ephesians4:17-19
17 So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. 18 They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts. 19 Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, and they are full of greed.

So..are ypu making yourself dead as alive.? Making rituals of holloween blood to glorify the enemy of God.? Then ypu are in serious situation. You are becoming the  enemy yourself.
Dont offer your kids to death and darkness but give them to life and light.

When Family Fails in Childs eyes

That is true. Children are the one that suffer and affected.
But it does not mean that people who are married and one have hard hearts will stay in one roof.
That is why Moses law of divorce came.
As Jesus did also understand that God does not want people divorced or be departed from each other, but because of the HARD HEARTS of people that causes division and heart problems and family destruction then the law of divorce and separation came in the picture.

Matthew 19:7-8


7 “Why then,” they asked, “did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?”


8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning.”



The hard heart means of a person without the character of love.
And I would admit myself honestly that, I made terrible mistakes, and I can only stand for my own and not the faults my ex had done against me. Because it is for Gods sake I must mind my own business or issues. So.. let's get back to the topic.,

 Love itself consists in
1 Corinthians 13 : 4-7
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

In some cases, when people are not matured enough to face the fact that their partners are not as what they expect them to be, they become cold, when the person is self centered and full of pride thinking "I know this is right, follow what I say or else" ; " I am right, don't tell me I'm wrong",

I know by experience that the expectations of my ex towards me was too demanding and I could not stand enough. Although I am a strong willed woman and a strong follower of Jesus, I balanced and tried for many years to stay in my marriage. But what hurts my children most was when they saw me and their dad fighting and shouting hurtful words against each other. While we are fighting.. we are actually showing our kids how we treat each other and that I tell you, is without love.
Of course, I managed to tell my kids exactly what it's all about. I did not tell them every details but told them that what we did was not right and my little boy said to me once when he was 6 " mama, know that I love you, and I don't want to see you crying. I love papa also but I don't want him to hurt you anymore" and the police came along and carried us away.
It was then I understood, that no matter how much you ignore your kids, they understand more than adults do. And I surrendered to God and filed a divorce.
I failed some time even under divorce, I made stupid things I  shouldn't do and I hurt him also.
It was hurting for the children to know Mama is not gonna live in the house anymore.. and they would cry day and night when I see them and leave them every other week to their dad. And they sob and cry when to go to my house.
But I told them that God wants every family to be whole with love.
And you know what?
My ex was very much in a bad attitudes, he would curse me to hell, and he would speak bad against me. But I stood in the word of God and made myself calm and trust Him although in my deepest, I would like to beat him and be the worst enemy.
But God reminded me, " You are my child, you are created in my image, it is about time you take courage to trample the enemy at your foot and show kindness to those who hate you and love your neighbour as thyself "
Well Lord God, that was difficult to do. For in the first place, I was beaten up by his hurtful words, I was sometimes hit by his slap, where would in my heart I  am going to do good for him?
And God said " No one is good in all earth, everyone is a sinner, forgive him and I will make everything new. Speak to your children what love means. And ask forgiveness to your children for you also have hurt them. Trust me and I will give you peace"
And I did.
It was indeed a struggle to speak with my Kids and ask for forgiveness and my son at the age of 7 told me " Mama, I understand that you are happy now, I see it when you hug me. I forgive you mama. And I'm happy to be with you everytime." And my daughter says " mama you are the best, because you are not shouting at me and you teach us how to love and how God loves us. You teach us so much about God. I hope papa will also see what love is"
I couldn't help but cry and thank God for giving me patience and endurance after all the pain I got through. My children became my teacher at those moments.

I see the perspective of God through children.. they have a simple faith in God.
And their innocence had made them understand clearly enough, not like adults who thinks more of other things in consideration rather than thinking of the whole things simply to find a solution.
It's not easy to move on, but with self will and God's strength and mercy, You will surely do it.

So if you are a wife that struggles in a difficult/mind abuse marriage, I encourage you to strive harder to become Godly and commit yourself God because you can't do it yourself. And your mind will be burnout, but if you are God and pray to Him, He will send you His Spirit and will lead you how to become strong and courageous to do what the will of God is.
But if you are staying in a physically abusive marriage, please pray and ask God to help you to deliver you out of danger and harm. Because abusive relationship also means of hard hearts, Wether by words or physical acts.

The children in this kind of separation must be talked to. Parents whom can't stay together must  atleast talk to each other and be nice to each other because the subject is not about them anymore. The subject between them is done and the Subject now is the children. So give time to them and express Love and compassion to them.
Be honest with your children. You may not tell them sensitive details but atleast tell them it's not their fault, and atleast tell them that both does not workalong together and that love to each other is not there anymore. And when time comes they'll ask again of it, when kids are old enough to understand, then you can tell details.

♡ Teach the kids the Word of God. Read them the Bible.
♡ Never stop telling kids you love them,
♡ Never stop teaching kids what love means according to God.
♡ Continue to encourage kids in what they are good at.
♡ Continue to go out or take some coffee break some time as a family.
♡ Continue to date your kids and involve them in your life.
♡ Show them a good example and do not expose them to materialistic world.
♡ Tell the kids the bad effects of cigarettes, drugs and alcohol.
♡  teach the kids how to dress modestly.

I hope that this had helped you.
A testimony Ican share.

Living a Quiet Life..Mind your own Business

1 Thessalonians 4:11
and to aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you,

1 Thessalonians 4 : 10
for indeed you do practice it toward all the brethren who are in all Macedonia. But we urge you, brethren, to excel still more, 11and to make it your ambition to lead a quiet life and attend to your own business and work with your hands, just as we commanded you, 12so that you will behave properly toward outsiders and not be in any need.

DISCREET IS BETTER THAN OPEN BOOK, PEOPLE ARE JUST CURIOUS ABOUT U BUT DOESNT REALLY CARE ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE GOING THROUGH. THE INFORMATION AND SECRECY YOU MAY PASS TO OTHERS WILL JUST CONTINUE TO ANOTHER TOUNGE AND EAR. THEN IN THE END, YOUR LIFE IS A CIRCUS.
People really doesn't care what matters, but are curious on what happens in your life. Wether you are out or inside your household. Wether your dead nor alive, they just want to hear you. But those who believe and trusting the Lord, will surely come to you and ask how you are without proclaiming the whole world what they do for you. People who truly love are not gossipers, people who truly love does not parade itself, does not expect in return.
When people loves you, they will try the best to help you rather than speak.
When people loves you, they will try to lift you up to God rather than point your mistakes and gossip about it.
When people love you, they will tell you your mistakes and instruct you how to become a better person.
So its better you have few friends whom are true to God and true to you.
Never put your life story in the whole wide world when it's not necessarily needed.

Yo to Jesus! Yo! to God....

Yo!
When all of you get busy enough, I wonder how many times you even remember you wake up!
Yo!
When your life gets so tough,
I wonder how many times you even remember when you get it right!
Yo!
When your life is so good,
You ignore those who don't have enough..I wonder, do you have a conscience to sleep so well at nights!
Yo!
When you drink that alcohol and party your life,
I wonder if you're aware that you drank your days and you are wasted enough!
Yo!
When you smoke that cigarettes and blow your breath away,
I wonder how many times you'd blow your money and how long does your body gonna stay?
Yo!
Jesus was on the cross you've heard,
To give you life but you just laughed and turned.
You've mocked, God is not real
And you see believers, your mind can kill.

You!
So long you live, you don't care,
So long you eat, you don't dare,
So long you have, you don't share,
So long you breath, you just stare,

One day!
Your life will be at end,
Your food will be at waste,
Your stuff will be rotten,
Your breath will have to be returned!
One day, when your day is near!
God will also stare!
God will say,
Why would I care?
God will say,
What shall I say?
God will say,
I gave you Jesus but you turned away
God will say,
You got ears but did not hear,
You got everything but did not share,
You got life but was unaware,
You got ME but you did not Care!
You made a choice so go your way!
