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.

THIS LIFE IS ENDING

Please listen: It is such love that Jesus the Lord gives us that makes us to think beautiful. Do not forget that although this life is over we are eternal and we have to know where we are going. Sometimes we may feel disoriented without knowing where we are going, not knowing that our destiny is eternal; but Jesus Christ is our guide and our hope. He lights our way. This life ends up being liked or disliked, whether we want or not, because this is the will of God. I do not want, you do not want, we do not want this to be so; our reason does not understand. As it were not so, we dwell in a fallen world; but the best of all is that God has a better place, and seeing Him is a great expectation. Our life had a beginning but will have no end, this is another fact that reason does not understand, but understand or do not understand there is another life. One day we will be like the Lord and we will see Him face to face. I take this moment to say goodbye to all the people I met personally and through this Blog, also my loved ones, those who are close and those who are far away. I do this because I feel very close to my departure. Do not worry about me; I go to a safe place: "HEAVEN".
Inhabitants of this world, let us realize where we stand and everything that awaits us on the other side. What would be an eternity without you Father God?  We do not even going to think about this.
The Lord has a place of fulfillment, from all eternity: the "Eternal Heaven". We do not let you down, Father God, because you are our God and you fulfill what you promise. Yes, this life is over, but we are eternal. Do you understand this, my friend?

                       Cordially,
                                           José Joaquin Agudelo,

MY 84th BIRTHDAY

Hello family, did you know that the apostle Paul began the passage from Romans 8:38 with this sentence: I am sure ...? We too can say: We are sure that death could not separate my husband José Joaquin from the love of Christ and his longing for his whole family to experience the love of the Lord in fullness. Today I want to emphasize to all that death will not be able to separate us from the love of God if we really give ourselves to Jesus Christ, but we have to dare to do it because this is the only way to have a great family reunion in Heaven. Do not think that after the departure of your father Jose Joaquin, my husband, to Heaven; it is not easy to be content with my birthday despite having a large and wonderful family.
So I hope you understand and understand that only the Lord can fill us this emptiness that your earthly father left us. Everyone is aware that we are celebrating my 84th birthday, but also that this is the 5th anniversary of his departure for Heaven. So, even if it hurts our soul, I want to remind you of his last writing for the Blog, also his farewell, 45 days before his death. I think that God has loved him a lot by giving him so much courage and lucidity in those moments so painful to be able to give his last advice, and even write his farewell.

                 With love,
                                        Maria Fanny Agudelo
