1 Corinthians 12:14-15

God has given us, through His spirit, gifts and different ministries to each one of us. I must be humble to accept what God has given to me and use it to bless other people and to do the work He has called me to. But before, I need to know what and where God has called me, so I won’t be wondering around looking for my purpose. Even if I don’t feel like my purpose is “big” or “meaningful”, it helps to work everything out and together. I know that my meaning is found in Him.

It has always been difficult for me to work in groups, and even more when it is a group I didn’t wanted. One of the reasons is that they can’t do the job like I would like it to be. Another one is that sometimes I would need to work their part or have to help them several times. These reminds me that we are not God, therefore we don’t decide the part of body for every person; that is in God’s hand. It can happen that we won’t be content with some people, but we need to trust that God has placed them there with a purpose. When we set our own objectives and goals we lose what His ministry is for. We can start to diminish others and be so selfish with our work that we have stopped serving God. He doesn’t even needs us, it is only by his grace and love that we have been called their sons and servants. When our sight is Him and all that we do is for His glory, then with humbleness we start working as a body without selfishness and trying to help each other out.

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
