22-diciembre

¡Feliz viernes! Estas listo para. ¿Navidad? No he terminado del todo, pero ayer salí de compras y, mientras estaba, vi este letrero.


“Habla de tal manera que los demás te escuchen. Escuche de tal manera que los demás quieran hablar con usted ".


La mayor parte del tiempo nos preocupamos demasiado por lo que tenemos que decir cuando quizás deberíamos prestar más atención a cómo lo decimos. Las amables palabras habladas en el amor llevan a un corazón que escucha. En oposición directa, muchos de los comentaristas de noticias simplemente gritan por encima de quien no esté de acuerdo con ellos. No es un indicio de que escuchar y gritar no hace que nadie quiera escucharte.


Como cristianos, debemos hablar palabras de vida y verdad en amor. ¿Cómo pueden saber si no escuchan y por qué querrán escuchar si somos rudos y tan indiferentes que no los escuchamos?


“¿Cómo, entonces, pueden recurrir a la persona en la que no han creído? ¿Y cómo pueden creer en el que no han oído? ¿Y cómo pueden escuchar sin que alguien les predique? ¿Y cómo puede alguien predicar a menos que sea enviado? Como está escrito: “¡Qué hermosos son los pies de aquellos que traen buenas noticias!” ... En consecuencia, la fe viene de escuchar el mensaje, y el mensaje se escucha a través de la palabra acerca de Cristo ".

Romanos 10: 14-15, 17 NVI.


¡Qué bellos son los pies ... las palabras discutibles y desagradables no hacen los pies bellos! La fe viene de escuchar y para nuestra familia y amigos que no conocen a Jesús, debemos hablar de tal manera que quieran escuchar, especialmente durante la temporada navideña.


Querido Señor, oramos por sabiduría para saber qué y cómo decir las palabras sobre ti. Danos audacia con mansedumbre mientras intentamos decir tus verdades en amor a este mundo perdido y moribundo. ¡Tú eres el Alfa y la Omega y queremos compartir el maravilloso Salvador que eres! Te alabamos Jehová, nuestra roca, nuestro defensor y nuestro protector. Gracias por su gran gracia y por proporcionarnos la manera de salvarnos. Tú eres el gran Dios y te adoramos este día. Amen y amen


Te quiero querido amigo

Pam

Happy Friday. It’s the end of another week and we have had more opportunities to share the love of Christ with those around us and sometimes that takes quite a bit of effort. I don’t know about you, but I’m not always anxious to embrace others and really listen to them or share with them (especially those who I don’t know well). Sometimes, I just look at them and think “Are you for real?” I don’t always agree with people over politics, sports or of course, religion. And let’s face it, we’d rather spend time with people we like and mostly agree.  And then I read my Bible. God hasn’t called us to sit in our little groups with only those we naturally gravitate towards, but to love people—all people, even those who aren’t necessarily loveable. In this passage, Paul writing to the people of Colosse remarks on how wonderful it is that they truly love others. That love must have really been something over and above the normal and he tells them that it is evident that it comes from the Holy Sp

Happy Wednesday to you. I hope your week is going well. Yesterday, I went to Sams. I was out of things like trash bags, toilet paper, and chicken, so off I went. I like going to Sams because there is always lots to look at and the isles are nice and wide. Everytime I’m there, I am amazed at how much stuff and everything from diapers to TVs to mangos to beds. It just seems incredible that so many things in such quantities are all under one roof.  King David never saw a store with as much stuff aa Sams of course, but he did see countless miracles and understand that God has plans. He knew from creation and history that he was serving a God of miracles and he know that God loved him and his people and would take care of them. He was amazed and awe-struck by the fact that a God who had done such great and mighty things not only cared about his people but that He loved them with such a great love.  “Many, Lord my God, are the wonders you have done, the things you planned for us. None can co

It’s Thursday and I woke up to the blowing wind! Lots of it—I’m dreading Boomer waking up and having to go outside with him. That harsh, bitter wind seems cruel and almost evil. But I’ll wrap myself up with a fe layers and boots and brave it all.  Sometimes I think we try to do that with things we know aren’t right—things that are evil. We try to wrap ourselves up and just wade into it, but Paul tells us we should reject it—stay away from it. “Do not treat prophecies with contempt but test them all; hold on to what is good, reject every kind of evil. May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.” ‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5:20-24‬ NIV When he wrote this he’d been in Berea and the Christians there diligently searched the scriptures to make sure everything Paul said was in line. Paul here is encouraging the Thessalonians to
