Hebrews 11:6

While I was meditating of these verse, a humming bird came to my sight. It was flying really fast,
drawing close to a flower. This bird believes that the flower exists, and that it is going to get food
from it. 

That representation got me thinking, that this verse talks about a relationship. This relationship is 
established by faith between the members. In a dualistic view, both members (mostly) want to get
to know each other, start doing things to one another expecting to get them happy; safety is a huge
part to build a good relationship. Trust must be present so that relationship can continue, because when
you start to have doubts on the other member member, unreliability comes and then the relationship just 
can’t be healthy. 

Our relationship with Dad starts when we believe in Him. He, since the beginning of the creation, expected this
relationship with his sons and daughters. Our faith brings Him joy, because if there is faith.. the connection starts. 
My faith in Him started when I was 7 years old. Being a kid, things went well. My whole family (4 members) were
in the repentant and convicting phase. I grew up in church, but never committed to serve Him. For my teen years
I lived a “light” christianity, having faith for only certain circumstances. Mostly for asking materials things, or asking him
to open doors for certain opportunities. I did this, because I knew that He would help me if I believed in Him. But my faith should 
have been constant to build a good relationship with God. I started to trust in people’s opinions, my heart, and what the 
culture said; totally drawing me away from Dad. It wasn’t until I buried down my barriers and walls of obstinacy that 
I could really see His love with me, with my family, his care for every little detail, that made me think and believe 
that He is my way and truth. Faith relying on Him, knowing that He has everything under control. 

His blessings and rewards come with this Faith, he loves us and as a father he’ll take care and do what it is right for us.

1 Corinthians 9:22

What another demonstration of love to our neighbors or to people than to be emphatic with their lives and share with them the gospel? Knowing that God called me to be a disciple and to share the gospel to people has opened my eyes. His calling qualifies me, even though I feel like I am not ready or don’t have enough love for others, I have stopped trying and just letting Him work in me and through me.  Being honest, it is hard for me to be open to all people I face or get to know, but it is even harder when it is people that I know or are my friends. I believe this happens because of my lack of faith in Him. Now that I am in a real relationship with Him, my love and passion has been growing. My heart opens more and more every new time we get to do outreaches or share the gospel.  I can’t love people with my heart, but I can love them with His love. In my strength is hard to lay down and try to talk to everyone, but His faithfulness and passion for them is what makes me move. N

Hebrews 11:1

It seems that for all our lives and during every phase, we humans actually keep on wishing, wanting, and expecting  for something to happen or to come up to. Most of us will be influenced by the circumstances in our lives and the words of other people. It seems that we are constantly under pressure and bombarded with things that we don’t  even expect; like if we would become the person that the circumstances are dictating or what other people  are saying. Our expectations of life and the desires or hopes of our heart are biased to the wrong way.  Hebrews helps us define what faith really is, if we pay close attention. It is faith that is what holds all of these points, letting  us know what really is going wrong is our faith’s direction. We have the steering wheel of our own faith, it is us who  decide where we want it to be anchored or to whom or what we rely it on.  During my life I have been always a dreamer, having life goals, and constantly looking towards the

Luke 21:19

While I was thinking of standing still, a soldier was illustrated in my mind. When a superior calls a soldier to stand still, the soldier must leave whatever he is doing and come up firming his body. Then he has an attitude of listener, because the superior surely has something important to say. After the superior finishes his command, the soldier must wait until he has permitted to “relax”.  We can take certain points out of this illustration. The soldier has attitudes of obedience, service, and discipline. Jesus is our chief in command and we are his soldiers, we have to fight for souls. As any soldier, we need to look sharp and in shape. Otherwise we are going to die. We shall seek Jesus daily to know him more and delight ourselves in Him; so that our faces can reflect Him. Our ears need to be sensible to His voice, in a battle of so much noise and action, confusing a command from a different source will have terrible consequences. Our most important weapon is His word, sharper
