Why do we need rules?
This is a place where people who pray for Poland everyday meet to unite in prayer and encourage each other. We want to ask the Lord for a transformation that our country needs.
It is important to establish rules which will help our initiative achieve its goals.
The Lord wants good for us and can do whatever He decides.
We believe that He has created us and sustains our lives with His love.
He helps us whenever we strive for truth, righteousness and unity. If we didn’t believe that, our initiative would be purposeless.
We put God first and we believe that He knows what is best for us
God knows the fullness of truth, while we can only understand some aspects of it and our understanding depends on our circumstances, our knowledge and our maturity.
We should remember about it, when we judge other people’s lives and their opinions, because it can help us come closer to the truth. We are only right to some extend and our judgments are limited, especially when they bring harm to others.
The truth sets us free
Only truth is worthwhile – everything that is outside truth is an illusion and it is not worth wasting our lives for illusions. That is why we have to fight for truth in our hearts and minds, in our personal lives and finally in our society. The closer to truth we are, the more authentic we can be and the more freedom we can experience. The easiest way of learning the truth in what is beyond our perception is to know God himself.
He is the source of freedom. Let’s make truth our light.
We can judge actions, but not people
Evil and foolishness can be, and sometimes should be called what they are.
However, we should not put such labels on people. Each of us is both beautiful and ugly and we are in the process of becoming more and more beautiful, even if sometimes it seems that the ugliness is prevailing.
Good conquers evil
There is no other effective way of fighting the evil around us. All we need to fight is within us, although we still have to be trained and that can only be done by God.
We are learning to build freedom and to live it out
God wants us to be united, and that means our personal integrity, unity within marriages, within families, within societies, etc. Unity is what makes men similar to God and whatever destroys unity leads in the opposite direction.
We should treat others the way we would like to be treated
We should ask ourselves how we would like to be treated by people and then treat others in the same way.
No agitation or advertising
We are not trying to make money or achieve any religious or political goals. This a place devoted to uniting people in prayer for Poland.
The Internet is full of websites which serve economic or political purposes. Let this one be free from that.
Should anyone want to express their personal views (political or religious), we ask to do it respectfully, remembering that our aim is to be united.
We are trying to understand one another by listening to our stories
Even when I consider myself to be right, I don’t lose anything, if I listen to and try to understand those who have different opinions.
We are following the law
All the activities within this website should be compliant with the Polish law. We ask the users not to offend anyone.
Poland is our home and our mother
The well-being of our country is a common concern for those of us who consider it their home and for those who care for it for other reasons.
