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.

EVERYTHING WE DO DURING OUR LIFE DETERMINES THE PLACE WHERE WE WILL SPEND ETERNITY

 


We have our eternal life in JESUS ​​CHRIST, but He leaves us the response to His call, which is also a very great grace from the Lord. Therefore no one can prohibit us from following His divine ways without hesitation. “And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” (In the Bible, Acts 4:12). If we believe the Word of God, you will see that no other passage in the Bible contradicts it. So we can trust Him and we have no doubt in the plans that the Lord has prepared for our salvation. Now it is our turn to thank God for his infinite

goodness. Distracting sophistry is the incredulous people who do not see reason and discuss barbarities with us. It is up to us to give them healthy corrections and nothing more. However, we must not remain silent because the Lord has us in this world for something, to follow in God's blessed footprints.

How good it is to follow the ways of the Lord, forgetting all hatred and resentment. Let us not


give room to the devil who, with simple details of life, wants to take us to hell where he is condemned for eternity. It is dangerous that with simple details of life we ​​give the devil a chance, as the saying goes. Let us invoke the Holy Spirit who will always guide us along his wonderful paths of love and piety. A child with great ability is loved very much, but one who does not have it is loved just the same. A son is a son and no more; but the important thing is to live in the Holy presence

of God and in holy peace. For all those who with me want to follow the Lord, we believe that God's blessed designs are good paths.

Here I am already finishing this writing. May all who read this message receive a blessed greeting of peace.

Cordially,

José Joaquín Agudelo G.

THE BIBLE THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOK


 Hello family and friends. In these times I want to talk to you about the most important book on the entire planet Earth, which does not need satellites to obtain its signal as if it were far from our reach. This book is the most powerful and transformative truth in the world, it is a lamp for our homes, it is a strong shield, it is sweeter than honey, it is life and connection with God. I think you should already know what book I am talking about, and that it is very clear to you that it is “The Bible.”

If the Bible is a fairy tale, why is it banned in fifty-two


countries? No one would go to jail for reading a book like Snow White. If the Bible really has no power, why ban it? In this book we find the most powerful and transformative truth in the entire world. If you read it frequently and practice what you read you will be able to walk on the turbulent waters of problems and do many more things. Have you been reading the Bible? Don't forget that circumstances do not change the Word of God, but the Word of God does change circumstances.


The Bible was inspired by the Holy Spirit and was written on three continents: Asia, Europe and Africa; It was written in three languages: Aramaic, Hebrew and Greek; It was written by forty people from different professions, many of them did not know each other, and it was written over the course of fifteen hundred years. I tell you that when our heart connects with God, extraordinary things happen. God surrenders to the prayer of a humble heart.

The Bible tells us very nice and pleasant things like these: “Go home, my people, and lock your doors, hide for a short


time, until the anger of the Lord has passed” (Isaiah 26:20); “Call to me and I will show you great and hidden things that you do not know” (Jeremiah 33:3); “He who has ears, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give him to eat of the hidden manna and I will give him a white stone, written therein a new name which no one knows except he who receives it” (Revelation 2:17); “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears my voice and opens, I will come in to him and will sup with him and he with me” (Revelation 3:20).


The future is not uncertain when you fill the present with love. The Word of God is a lifesaver that prevents the soul from sinking in the dark sea of ​​life. Spiritual inactivity corrodes the soul. Maturity is about focusing on others, not on yourself. Christ is the answer to our fears. The real superhero is called JESUS ​​CHRIST. He has no servants and they call him the Lord; He has no university degrees and they call him Master; He has no armies and kings fear him; He did not win military battles and still conquered the world; He committed no crime and was crucified. He loved me first even without me knowing him; He was buried in a tomb and on the third day he resurrected, and he still lives today and continues to love and accompany me. This is worth spreading on all social networks, but since I know that few will do it, I proudly say 'I love you my God'. Thank you for being with me and my family.

Remember, the Bible: 1) generates life 2) creates faith 3)


produces change 4) performs miracles 5) heals wounds 6) builds character 7) transforms circumstances 8) imparts joy 9) overcomes adversity 10) defeats temptation 11 ) instills hope 12) releases power 13) cleanses our minds 14) defeats the devil and 15) guarantees our future forever. “Therefore this book of the law shall never depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it, for then you will make your way prosperous and everything will be for you. It will turn out well” (Joshua 1:8).

I advise you not to stop reading the book of books “The Bible”; you also do not exchange the banquet of the Kingdom of Heaven for pleasures or crumbs of the world; you trust only in the superhero JESUS ​​CHRIST and not in those of this world. Give your life to HIM.

With love,

Maria Fanny Agudelo
