Mark 14:30


I have had plenty advertisements in my life by Him. He has always talked to my life through different ways and even though I have heard loud and clear, I haven’t taken the advice and decided to go my way. Jesus loves me so much that He guides in beforehand on what is going to happen, to makes us aware and tell us how we could still make a different decision. God has called me to lay down my life for Him only, He won’t take second place in my life. But somehow I have found myself with distractions and pursuing something very different to Him. My heart and life must be His, there is no other way,. Only by surrendering it all He will pour the things He has for me, but if I turn my way into setting my heart and desire in something else He can’t work in me. Why did Peter didn’t remember whenever he heard the first crow? The servant women kept recognizing him as a Jesus’ follower but his fear of death pushed him to the wrong actions. The first rooster crow is an advertisement in the one Jesus told Peter before. Jesus can give a glimpse on how things are going to develop and in between we can have a “rooster crow” to remind us of what is coming next. I am hearing this first “crow” in my life. During this week with a mission team I have sought the ministry, works, relationships, and recognition before seeking Him first and uttermost. My heart can’t be given into those things rather than in Him, I need to set my priorities on Him and change my thoughts and desires back to His will. I don’t want to set myself failing before the “second crow”. He is faithful and never leaves me alone in Him I have victory. 

Application:
Do the analysis: where I am now and where I want to be before re-entry.

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

Luke 3:14

Just like the soldiers, several times I have asked myself if what I am doing is right, if I am pouring all the effort I can. It is easy in school because they give grades and report cards, in some way they help to draw conclusions. Every day in real life’s scenario is a test; were attitude, thoughts, and decisions will build the outcome.  Sometimes we are drawn by earthly things or ambitions, we keep on asking: “what is the new trend?”, “what is the best car in the market now?”, etc. But how many times do we ask questions to improve ourselves? Ask where our heart is or in what are we pouring our hearts to. What John answers to the soldiers relates perfect with what Jesus told us to do: love my neighbor as I do for myself. We often look ways to earn more by hurting people, because it is easier to take from other person than to work hard for it.  Soldiers are used to receive commands and rules, they are good at obeying and following. We shall imitate them and follow Jesus’ c

Philippians 3:8

All my life, before three months ago, I gave earthly things more value than God. It was based on my dreams and desires, without wanting His will in it. Looking to have God for my own purposes, instead of me living for Him. Living for my own sake took me to several failures and disappointments, for finally surrendering myself to Jesus. His love showed me that I had purpose and meaning in this earth, but it is only going to happen in His hands and ways, not in mine.  I never had the habit of reading His word, and now reading it; has opened my eyes and been light to my path. Now I know who He really is, and this makes me want to know Him more and have a closer relationship. The scriptures confront my acts and thoughts, making me surrender my life every day. Before it was a burden to do that, now is a desire to give up myself for Him because I want to please Him and because I can’t in my own strength.  His fire ignites my heart in a way that what I used to give importance, it has
