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.

WE ARE ALL CALLED


Hello family and friends. Did you know that the biggest event on this planet earth is the birth of the child Jesus? This was the beginning of the world's redemption. So if you believe in the Redeemer, celebrate Christmas. Christmas is light. If you have resentments forget them. Christmas is sorry. If you are in darkness, turn on the light of love. Do not forget that salvation is infinitely expensive, but at the same time absolutely free.
Merry Christmas 2019!!!
Remember: We are all called. Called to what? To rectification receiving Jesus Christ as the Son of God incarnate, dead and risen, the Savior; and also accepting His Gospel as the norm of life.  Each Christian must to contribute to the conversion of all human beings through the unparalleled way to the Kingdom of peace and justice, JESUS ​​CHRIST, the only one capable of restoring man to his exact dimension.
It’s too bad that not all Christians evangelize, because we want to live the faith adapted to our own requirements with the excuse of lack of word and vocation. Let us keep in mind that today more than ever there are a very large number of people who live and perish daily in the ignorance of God and the purpose for which they were created. It is urgent that we all help the rescue of lost humanity.
Although every good way to evangelize may be valid, let us keep in mind that the most effective way is the transmission of the word of God person to person, since it is possible to reach the individual conscience so that the message received can be retained. For the rest, testimony is needed, since if the word of God is denied by personal conduct, it will never be accepted. The face to face characterized the course of Jesus and this is proved by conversations with Nicodemus, the Samaritan woman, and the same with the apostles. Is there another so effective way to evangelize? In any case, we must consider that the word and the testimony of life are as important as the wings for the bird. (These are words of pastor J. Cardoso).

Let me add this: Christianity is not a religion, but a beautiful relationship with God and a lifestyle. God does not need us, but he does invite us into the depths of his compassion in order to feel with him the pain of the other. Spiritual progress is not measured by portions reached, but by obstacles overcome. The people of God are victorious not by their own efforts, but by the transfusion of life made by the blood of the Lamb.
Did you know that fear is the greatest disability and that the greatest source of insecurity is the lack of intimacy with God? Seek daily to connect with the true source of power: JESUS ​​CHRIST! Holiness is not a matter of outward appearance; it is a matter of the heart. Did you know who you are for God? You are the mark of his love, the passion of his surrender, the inheritance of his Kingdom and the reason for his return. The Christian life is a continuous lifestyle of serving God, your family and all human beings. Dare to enter this path, it is the best business!
MERRY CHRISTMAS 2019 AND BLESSED 2020!!!
With love,
