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.

WISE THOUGHTS

 


Hello family and friends, today I want to share with you something very beautiful and uplifting that I found in my archive. I reread it, edited it, and here I present it. I hope you enjoy.

Did you know that your great mission is your great vision? The greatest problem of a human being is to move away from God and the greatest need is to return to him. The great moment of grace comes when we realize that the eyes of Christ are fixed on us. The most important moment in life is to be alert so as not to be robbed of peace and tranquility. You can consult what you want in the Holy Bible just as you do on the Internet with the certainty that the Bible contains the perfect advice from your Creator.

Think like an adult, live like a young person, advise like an old man, but always dream. What fidelity! The heart is a wonderful thing; he can love many, but love only one exclusively. That is the mystery of marriage. That is the


exclusivity of love between a man and a woman; this love must always be cultivated.

Our goal in the world must be: Learn to love! This is an ever new commandment that God asks of us. Love should not be born in the sand of feelings that come and go, but on the rock of true love that is God. The marriage between a man and a woman must be permanently saved and not expected to be on the verge of the abyss.

I smile not because I always do well, I smile because I'm tired


of looking for blame. I smile because it is my best weapon and because despite so many tragedies my heart remains sincere. I smile for what I am because God has given me everything. So even if it seems dark, even if misunderstanding cuts off your laughter, even if your efforts are ignored, even if ingratitude is the payoff, even if tears flood your eyes, even if a mistake hurts you, even if you feel tired, even if triumph abandons you, look for the help of God and start again. Security is not in the absence of danger, but in the presence of God and trust in Him.

With love,

Mary Fanny Agudelo
