Hello family and friends! Let me tell you that going over my archives I
found an article about walls, and I thought, this is such an ancient method,
yet so relevant since we hear comments about it daily. I think that neither in
those times nor in these modern times, did a wall ever give good results. Therefore
it is better to build bridges than walls.
Never make physical, nor walls of enmity, person vs person,
people
against people, and nation against nation; for what we need is to be united and
support one another since united forces do wonders. Never forget that Jesus
said that a kingdom divided against itself shall not stand. What we need are
bridges of love, mercy, peace, understanding, compassion, surrender, and tolerance.
We should build bridges from within our hearts, towards the hearts of others,
only allowing the light of peace and love to pass through. Remember that life
is a trip and not a competition, as well as being very short, wherefore we
should forgive and love more, leaving the rest to the Lord. It does not matter
what you face in life; where the spirit of the Lord is there is freedom. Did you
know that it’s more
important to be amiable than to be right? Don’t forget that
the goal is not a dividing wall, but a uniting bridge that leads to the
construction of bridges of love and blessing. Remember that the lack of love
and compassion blocks you heart, severing your communication with God, meaning
His presence wouldn’t flow, since it would find an unbelieving heart. Instead
the one who overlooks an offence creates bridges and ropes of love and
friendship. Human life can be beautiful, but we need humanity before technology
and kindness before intelligence. When the leaders pray, God blesses the
people. If no one contributes to sowing love, how could we avoid murder? Don’t
forget that when we have good will and enthusiasm, God is our best ally. Let’s
fight to abolish barriers between nations, end hatred and intolerance, knowing
very well that the road toward the top isn’t attained stepping over the needy,
but rather by stopping to give them help. If you think you’re too important to
help the weak ones, you only deceive yourself, since what makes a person strong
is recognizing that they are weak.
We’ll know that we that we are hearing from God when what we read in the
Bible is what people are seeing in our lives. It doesn’t matter what we teach
our kids, they insist in behaving like their parents, since we teach them what
we know, but reproduce what we are. “If you teach it to me, I’ll forget. If you
show it to me and involve me, I’ll remember.”
Love is not easily hidden; loving is the most efficient way to receive
love. The greatest manifestation of love was given by Christ on the CROSS. He
is the fountain of love and if we have Him living in our hearts, we can give
love and build bridges thereof. Do you want to experience this great love?
With love,
Maria Fanny

you don’t feel
it, then ask God for it, for He will not deny you, since you too have been
redeemed by the blood of the Lord. Father God, don’t let my brethren despise
that eternal life that you prepared before we were born; this I ask with all my
heart so that we can go altogether to that mansion of love. Nobody can say
“that’s not for me”, because the Lord loves all the same. In such delicate
matters we are the ones who decide our own fate: Hellfire or the Mansion of
Love. I won’t shut up Daddy; I
want to talk about Your divine Presence nonstop.
Don’t let anyone get left behind; we’re all going with Him!
