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.

THE SALVATION

 Hello family and friends, did you know that the most important thing in passing through this earth is salvation? My husband said that salvation is the biggest and best deal for all human beings. Salvation is infinitely costly, but at the same time, it is totally free.

Some people believe that sin is not so bad and that is why God can free the sinner from punishment. That is not so, on the contrary, if sin were not so bad, the punishment would not be eternal, and would be just an unimportant misfortune, then God would not have bothered to provide a salvation that cost the life of JESUS ​​dying in the cross. That's how bad sin is for God. The greatest event that God has made had to happen: SALVATION WITHIN THE REACH OF EVERYONE, the CROSS. This does not mean that it is not the most important thing for you because it is free. It is not that it cost nothing, but because it has cost so much that you cannot be in a position to pay for it. JESUS ​​paid for you. Have you already received your salvation?

We are all worried because evil and sin are increasing on this planet Earth every day. We feel confused because we can no longer believe in anyone or anything. We are all in search of peace in the midst of society and when we don't see it we feel frustrated. But we must understand that for there to be peace in society, we must first seek the inner peace that we can only find in the source of eternal life, JESUS ​​CHRIST, the Prince of Peace.

Therefore, be clear that the problem is not only what happens in the world, but also what happens within us. One thing leads to another. I repeat, peace can only be found by relating personally to God in JESUS ​​CHRIST. In the Bible, Romans 5:1 says that being justified by faith, we have peace with God through JESUS ​​CHRIST. Here is the first step to achieving peace in the midst of relationships. Above all, you must have peace in your soul and spirit. It is that peace that CHRIST gives us from the moment we receive him as our savior. That peace brings hope. When we receive JESUS ​​CHRIST in our hearts, we have peace with God. He fills our souls with his peace and his love. If every human being had that personal encounter with JESUS ​​CHRIST, then we would have, as a logical consequence, peace in society. Will this be possible?

Keep in mind that the soul is cleansed with forgiveness, hydrated with prayer, and nourished with the Word of God. Furthermore, the soul is protected with faith and invigorated with love. JESUS ​​said in Matthew 11:28-30, come to Me who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest. Accept my teaching and learn from Me who am patient and humble. With me you find rest, my teaching is pleasant, and my yoke is easy to bear. Let's make the change, says JESUS, give me your burden and I give you my yoke. What a deal! With JESUS ​​you never lose. Do it right now.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2024!

With love,

Maria Fanny Agudelo
