Why do I believe? Sometimes , I just don’t know why; but I move forward because I’m used to it. I have clung to believe that He will renew my being, and that finally; I will do  the generational change.  It has not been easy for I have learned to let go people and habits that I loved. And every step that I go forward in Christianity, the more the things I have to let go.

With every step to the promise land, the entrance becomes narrower, my emotional avoidance would not fit there. Neither the scale that I used to weight my judgment on. Now that scale is just calibrated, and if I did not use it; my mind it would be still captive.       Read the rest of this entry »

Be happy, young man, while you are young, and let your heart gibe you joy in the days of your youth. Follow the ways of your heart and whatever your eyes see, but know that for all these things God will bring you to judgment. Ecclesiastes 11, 9

The decisions you take involve not only yourself but also everybody around you. Remember that all the things you are thinking to do, in a way, they are going to change the life of all the people you have met.

God has given us freedom to choose whatever we want, but not everything it is allowed, Read the rest of this entry »

“For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life” John 3:16 (New Living Translation)

At 25 I met God´s grace and the power of Jesus. I had turned the life God gave me into a waste, backed up by a bottle of alcohol. My dreams lacked of transcendence, I just wanted to get by life. Alcohol got everything out of me, and when I was really lost, it happened. I heard that there was someone with enough power to set me free me and restore me; and his name was Jesus. I invited Him into my heart and He gave a new name, saved me and cleansed me. Being my surprise that He did not called me full of shame but loved one, not waste but masterpiece.

Only once I have been in my state Governor´s office. On that occasion I was received by the General Secretary of the Government, that is, not even by the Governor. And I remember another time later, I was received by the Governor of the Province (or State). I went to complete a procedure at the Government´s House and I crossed ways with the Governor, at the time he was going to perform his tasks. We had a brief talk..What a thrill!

Imagine being  with the president. That never happened. I could have requested a hearing, but not only would  take a long time, I then should justify that is a matter of  great importance or urgency , otherwise I will not be addressed by whoever is in running the   presidency office.

Putting your head in the lion’s mouth – Luis Caccia Guerra

Currently, at least in our country, Argentina; applies a strict prohibition regarding the use of animals in circus acts. Specifically I remember the lion tamer in a cage with a wild beast, where the “grand finale” performance was to make the lion open his mouth and the tamer would get his head inside of it.

I do not know if there were any tricks or “little secret” to get his head unscratched and be able to hear in one piece the audience’s applause after such recklessness. The truth is that in the course of history this act, more than once went wrong and some animal tamers in the circus did not come out of their lion safely. Moreover, some also lost the life before the wild rush of an animal of nearly four times the weight of the daring trainer.

Believers, who have made the choice to obey God’s call and be in any way, a blessing to others, sometimes we forget the reality that we live literally with our head inside the jaws of a lion Read the rest of this entry »
