“RUNNING AFTER THE BALL, do you dare?”

1 Corinthians 9:24
24 Do you not know that all those who run in a race run, but one receives the prize? So run, that you may obtain it.

I’m not a fan of sports, but recently while doing my exercises (walking, I recommend to walk at least 15-30 minutes a day or at least 3 to 4 times a week) I watched some volleyball players play. The interesting thing about the game was that both teams looked tired and when the ball fell only one player ran after the ball. Interesting? Only one went out to look for the ball.

“DIE” IN ORDER TO LIVE

John 11:11-15 (Bible Reina Valera, 1960)

11 After he had said this, he went on to tell them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I am going there to wake him up.”12 His disciples replied, “Lord, if he sleeps, he will get better.” 13 Jesus had been speaking of his death, but his disciples thought he meant natural sleep.14 So then he told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead, 15 and for your sake I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.”

Dying, it’s a reality that will touch us all. But, when we read the story of Lazarus, dying gives us the hope that at some point we will be resurrected. Reflecting on the death of Lazarus, God reveals to us that the old man/woman must die in order to live.

Die what? Continue reading ““DIE” IN ORDER TO LIVE”

What is in your basket?

Exodus 2:5 (Bible Reina Valera, 1960)

5 Then Pharaoh’s daughter went down to the Nile to bathe, and her attendants were walking along the riverbank. She saw the basket among the reeds and sent her female slave to get it.

We think many times that life is unfair and that the treatment is not the same for rich and poor. Are we wrong? Well, in this universe we have different planets, different people with their respective personalities and situations. Everyone of us has a basket full of many things in our lives. Only, only you know what you are carrying. Continue reading “What is in your basket?”

Do you still have no faith?

Mark 4:39-40

39 He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. 40 He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?”

Before starting this blog, my legs still trembled and still had my concerns. By having the concerns you know, what Iris Perez does, still questioned and asking God, why? Maybe, it was my mind? Oh, my God! Well, when God wants to, he wants to, look I’m telling you He is stubborn. Continue reading “Do you still have no faith?”

Do you love me…follow me

John 21:15-17 (Bible Reina Valera, 1960)

15 When they had eaten breakfast, Jesus asked Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John,[f] do you love me more than these?” “Yes, Lord,” he said to him, “you know that I love you.” “Feed my lambs,” he told him. 16 A second time he asked him, “Simon, son of John, do you love me? ”Yes, Lord,” he said to him, “you know that I love you.” “Shepherd my sheep,” he told him.17 He asked him the third time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?”

For a long time I have wondered, God, what is your purpose in me? There are so many circumstances that surround us that sometimes we lose the horizon of what God wants to do with us. Many times we seek in other places such as professional career, studies, works, arts, and even society tells us “search inside you because there is a talent hidden in you.” Yes, yes, we know, but which one?
