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.

BARBARITIES

 


Let me start with the following questions:

Why do men have to kill each other? Wouldn't it be better if they took another job? Or does the spilled blood of JESUS ​​CHRIST have no value? Or is it that a blessed eternity does not interest them? Or is it that an eternal hell does not frighten them? I declare them crazier than crazy. How good it is to love, how sweet to forgive, and how short this moment of life is. Only he who loves abundantly lives well. Otherwise life is meaningless. Certainly one cannot live with fear. How nice it would be if we understood this. Live Christ the King! Long live our beloved God! Thank you my


God because you make me think like that. Humbly and confidently I entrust myself to You Lord and I pray for all my brothers in the world so that none but none lose eternal life. And for all the lost in the world so that they may be found by your divine grace. My beloved Lord, as I like to tell you with Saint Teresa of Jesus:

Lord, I am not moved to love you by the Heaven that you have promised me, nor is the hell so feared to move me to stop offending you. Move me Lord and in such a way, to see you on a cross mocked; move me your affronts and your death that even if there was no Heaven I would love you and even if there was no hell I would fear you. You don't have to give me because I love you, the same as I love you I would love you.

Lord I love you because I love you and this is a grace that You, Oh God, have given me; but increase this fire for me because I need more and more to share your most holy will with all docile souls. This is how I want to be and do in all my life that You, O Lord, give me and thank you for life because that is your most holy will. I say that in life because everything is in life. With our existence over, there is nothing to do; where we stayed, we stayed and it's no more.


Very dear brothers, if we understand the glory of God and a little bit of his infinite mercy, He would fill us with his love. Lord, You flood us with delights and charms. Heaven is for the humble and those who confess their sins and repent of having committed them. It is not for hardened sinners, but for those who correct their mistakes and ask God for forgiveness with all their hearts. All this is during life; after death there is no remedy. Nobody should leave to repent when they are going to die because nobody knows that moment. “Watch and pray that you do not enter into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” (Matthew 26:41). Watch and pray because we do not know the day or the hour of the return of the Lord JESUS. This was said by the Lord.

Cordially,

Jose Joaquin Agudelo G.
