sharing

Today I shared with a sister in the lord which I had not seen for about six months;as our conversation started I was very happy to hear from her. I asked how the family was as well as her husband.I continued "well" how's everything? she said OK. I asked questions like are you fellowshiping with the brethren -she went on to say no. work is Good,the family is fine --and do I need God- yes- but am I looking for Him like before -No. As I meditated in the conversation we had ,taking into consideration the congregation were this saint came from; an inner city church in which there were 4 to 5 services a week and work did not conflict with the worship and everything was really convenient.But what happens when we move to a different location and we loose the convenience that we once had?-were we had time for everything but now because of the commute, and long hours at work don't allow us the time for fellowship as before?. and now the main relationship that affects who we are ,what we do,what we say and the many other relationships that depend on our relationship with GOD suffers?. What do I say to that,we need to stay connected to God. As the branch is connected to the vine so we need to remain in Him for disconnected we can dry out.John 15:1-7.I personally live in an area that is as difficult as I mentioned here, but I cannot afford to dry out. when we are connected something happens -because of this connection, God allows power to flow from vine (which is Jesus) to the branch and that flow of life keeps me alive !!!!!!!.let us not dry out,we need to stay Connected.

" NOTHING "

God bless!! the bible tells me that there's nothing to hard /impossible for God.First Sarah the wife of Abraham laughed at the news the angel of the lord brought to Abraham saying that she would bear a child-Gen 18:12-15.Have you ever laughed in disbelieve when God has told you something that seems impossible?She laughed because it just sounded crazy,P. S. "she was old"!- she said would I have pleasure again?the lord said-Is there any thing to hard for Lord?.Second, Jeremiah 32:27- was told to by land from his cousin so that when the people of Israel would return after the captivity from the Chaldean and Nebuchadnezzar -it sounded crazy and many did not believe that they would to captivity and much less buy land to be re owned after the captivity.Third,Mary in luke 1:32-37- was also told that she would have a child and His name shalt be called JESUS- SHE SAID HOW CAN THIS BE SINCE I know not a man?The angel said" For with God nothing shall be impossible".It sounded crazy as well.these three instances are in the bible that God is the God that turns things that are absolutely impossible to us but not to Him.the plans,the projections,visions God has are ahead of ours.when He tells us that we are to be used in His plans(Sarah) we often laugh and say ha ha ha!! doubting that it would come to pass.when God says to do something (Jeremiah) i t may just sound out of this world.when we don't know exactly how (Mary) God really Knows how and says with Him nothing shall be Impossible.look at your situation-your surroundings- your issues,impossible right! well with Him(say it with me)nothing shall be impossible. God Bless.

well! we're back after some technical dificulties!!LOL

today let us remember that God is with us at all times and He will never forsake us (leave us in the open)to know that God is with us like a mighty warrior as Jeremiah said it best and exodus 14:14 "The Lord will fight for us".

praise and worship in spanish!! holy melodies

joy in trials!!!!!!!!

God bless ! have you ever heard of joy when you are going through trials!!!!! I bet not -why? because when you go through a fiery trial all you can think of is the heat that you are experiencing;and say it ain't so!!!!lol!! well this is life as a christian believer, we might as we say the truth.1Peter 4:12-says "beloved don't think it strange the fiery trials that try you as something strange was happening" -and am paraphrasing -we often think O-M-G (in texting terms)- what is going on here--don't we, although that's the truth the bible tells us to have some joy.v13-but rejoice(it means to have joy) in as much we are partakers of Christ's sufferings that his glory shall be revealed ,ye may be glad also with exceeding JOY.So you see what I mean; we need to have some joy for real!!!!!!!!lol.Again- the joy is knowing that Jesus went through trials ,pain,strife, beatings, and much-much more, but he himself had joy when he took all of what he was going through and the result of it all.because He went through it God gave Him a new name that's above every name,and is seated at the right hand of the father ;Now think-think-Meditate how great would be our reward as well.and to "boot" look at v14'for the Spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: so!! my brothers have some Joy!!!!!lol.

Where are you standing?

Hello! everyone-- where are you standing? please don't say on the ground!!!!lol.this post is to cause you to take a closer look at the ground where you are standing.Some are standing on their friends ,family,job,social and political parties .what????????-at times we depend on these things to be there for us just so that we can feel secure.the truth is that all of these things mentioned can leave us in mid air, because that dependency that we so love and like to have in any moment can disappear.so?where Am I taking you?--here we go!!!- If we were to build a house-a project -and endeavor; we would need to first take a look at the foundation, weather we are building on solid ground or sinking sand.sand would not support the weight of the project and we know that very well;on the other hand solid ground can support the weight and everything on it,why? because the solid ground is fortified by a solid Rock that has been laid for security. for security ,dependency,assurance,confidence and the faith that the ground will never move from under our feet --our marriage,business,projects,dreams,families,relationships-Yes all of these!!!! lets go to the word---(NIV)Isa.29:16 "So this is what the Sovereign Lord says:see, I lay a Stone in Zion a tested stone , a precious stone for a sure foundation:the one who trusts will never be dismayed.I don't like to be dismayed or feel disappointed--do you? Try that stone .we often become dismayed when we deposited our time and trust in and on things that leave us without any foundation. so!! Try that stone-and this stone's name is Jesus. He will never leave you without what you need, we really need a real Good Foundation.
