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.
When we open the encyclopedic dictionary, we put so much humanity in
front of our eyes of all the notable characters that already existed. With this
we see clearly that life is short on Earth. The glories of life are fleeting
and only the memories remain.
But there sure is a lot to say about eternal life since we’re all going
to experience it. None can escape from what God prepared for us before we were
born.
According to the Word of God we have but two places to live eternity,
which we choose during our life: Heaven or hell. Just as you hear, it’s that
easy because we have an owner, we do not belong to ourselves and we have to get
along with Him very well. The only condition is to be friends with God. Lookie
here you stubborn ol’ mule, if you stay away from God you can condemn yourself
and who could endure a fiery furnace for all eternity. It is time to turn
around and approach the Lord.
Let's not let these precious moments pass because
otherwise, we’ll later regret not taking this opportunity for repentance. See
Father God that I want to save myself and many to pull for your Kingdom of
Light. To You Father God, I want to give that little charge of love because you
are the only one who can and no one else can.
It causes me to write more little words of the kind you put in my heart
so that others can read them and be filled with your love. Friend, in Heaven I’m
waiting for you because none of us know the day or the hour when the Lord calls
us. It is a good thing to go with Father God to enjoy the harvest that since
before we were born he gave us a gift.
Cordially,
Jose Joaquin

note: Brother, friend, if you read this message, I would like it if many more
people knew about it. Thank you for making this possible.
Hello family and friends. Did you know that old people are forgetful? We
repeat the same stories many times. So, if I've ever told you this story, I
want you to forgive me, because I love the way a teenager who was interviewed
in New York City responds. In the interview, the young man speaks in this way: I was born in 1986. My brothers and I caused
her many eye bags, which she does not hide knowing that they are the product of
love. She has the gift of persuasion so much so that she convinced me that I
could get green eyes by eating veggies. Oh her imagination! It never fails us.
I call her and she’s always there. That's why I have not become the imbecile I
could have become. Sometimes she gets angry and screams. But why wouldn’t you get
mad all your life eating what little remains after feeding your children? She
is a genius. She takes advantage of everything. I should thank God and my
father for choosing her for me as a mother.
Enough about the teen.
Perhaps the goal of all mothers is to hear something similar from their
children's mouth, not for their own conceit, but to verify that their efforts
have been worthwhile, although it is not necessary to hear them say it to know,
because Children are the reflection of their parents' educational style. The
mother of this teenager has achieved three things that go together: authority,
prestige and admiration. Those eye bags, the fruit of love, manifest intense
dedication to their children, an unconditional love that surpasses all a living
for others leaving those marks on their faces.
Her weapon has been motivation; she
has not used her power or command, but has managed to convince each child of
the convenience of doing something or changing their attitude. That weapon has been
loaded with bullets of imagination capable of touching that inner spring that
each one of us has but perhaps the most important thing is that that mother
"always is". Not because she is always at home, but because she has
the quality of availability, even when she’s not home. She has been able to
bring out the best in each child; she has perfectly fulfilled the educational
objective of her authority.
He recognizes that thanks to her he has not become
the imbecile he could have become. This confession shows that the mother knew
how to place her son in an alternative future that he himself could hope for
and that is why he calls her a genius. She, as if by magic, is capable of
changing everything, such as making the cold warm, the bitter sweetness, green
eyes from the vegetables, that is, using her magic wand to take advantage of
everything. He justifies her getting angry and yelling from time to time
because she has spent a lifetime sacrificing himself for his children, even
leaving the worst bites for himself.
The only thing that matters for her are
her children. The boy ends with one of the most beautiful compliments: "I
should thank God and my father for having chosen her as my mother." With
all this it becomes clear that the education of children must begin long before
they are born and it must be with much love and dedication. Congratulations to
all mothers.
