My husband and I were raised in Catholic families in Colombia, and from an early age our parents taught us the fundamental moral principles of the Catholic religion. But on April of 1989, when we were born again, we began to understand the true meaning of being a Christian and since then our relationship with God has become more personal. Since then we began to write. José Joaquin wrote reflections about the love of God and messages of hope for humanity, and I wrote wise advice for all families everywhere.

LITTLE MIRACLES
Enter into his gates with
thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise; be thankful unto him, and bless
his name. For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth continues
through all generations. Psalm 100:4-5
Dear blog friends, I keep sharing with all of you interesting things written by
John Mason. He speaks us about the gratitude and about the little common
miracles which are not so small. Let’s
enjoy reading, discovering the details and practicing this message
Do not forget that we will be remembered
by our actions, not by our words. Life is not measured by every breath we take,
but by the things that take our breath away. Today I wish you a day of
ordinary miracles such as a fresh cup of coffee for you which your partner has prepared;
an unexpected call from an old friend; green lights on the way to work; a smile
on the face of your spouse and the joy of your children when you has arrived
home. Also I wish you a day full of little miracles from which you will
feelthankfulness, such asshortest line at the supermarket, hearing
your favorite song, finding your keys exactly where you are looking for,cute embracing of your children just because you're their
dad or mother, grandfather or grandmother, or loved ones.
I Wish you a day full of happiness and
little pieces of perfection that make you feel that God is smiling you and cutely
holding because you are someone special and unique. I wish you a day full
of peace and tranquility.Remember someone said that
it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate her or him, a
day to love her or him, but a lifetime to forget her or him. Be happy because the
stone will never be very large and the injustices finally receive its
counterpart.The pain can be overcome and
the truth insists; the courage overcomes fear and makes you stronger; the mistakes
teach you.Know surely that nobody is
perfect.Be happy is easy, but what is
difficult is to be simple.
Remember, the positive people change the
world while the negative people keep the world such as it is. A different world
can not be built by indifferent people. When you do not understand the reasons,
leave reasoning and accept. Give thanks to God and the other ones many
times a day because it is very important, because of all human feelings
gratitude leaves less memory. The degree of your gratitude is a sure measure of
your spiritual health.
A thankful heart will find some heavenly
blessing every minute. Do not forget that the beginning of rebellion of man against God was and is the
lack of a grateful and humble heart. Someone said, God has given me a wonderful
life, butit looks like that I have
been slept;therefore I regret not enjoying my
life, notbeing grateful and not to
appreciate my life much more. Do not
forget that the great tragedy of life is not death. The great tragedy of
life is what we let die inside us while we are alive.Happy that person who thinks before acting
and prays before thinking because God blesses him and will be able to look at
the world and to smile.
Thank God every day for the many blessings
that you receive from Him.
Life is full of
little details; if we do not let them go unnoticed then we are rejoicing in the
Lord enjoying this creation of God. And when I say ‘this creation’ I am
including all the beauty our eyes can see from near and far: The glow in a full
moon night in the fall, the bright and soft sunshine on a spring day, the cool
breeze in a day summer, and the whiteness of snow in a beautiful winter day.
We have to enjoy
the beautiful creation in which God placed us because only then we will be full
of gratitude to the Lord. Who did see
the birth of a baby and then don't lift the eyes into heaven to say 'thank God
for the miracle of life'? Let’s enjoy
more of our loved ones and we will feel a heart full of love and gratitude to God.
I as a mother, grandmother,
great-grandmother practice what I am advising all of you; Do you want practice
it too?
One day we will
enjoy a new creation, but the new heavens and new earth will be only for those
who received Jesus Christ into their hearts. Just will enter there persons with humble,
obedient and grateful heart. Do you want to enjoy the new creation?
