"THE BIRTHDAY BOY"

Where is the birthday boy?
Oh, what a joy!
Today is his birthday!
And it is celebrated in the whole world!
But.. Who is he and where he is?
Let’s sing Him a happy Birthday!
Where did He go?
I looked for Him between all the presents gathered
under the tree, and, He was not there!
Oh, who cares?
What did you get for Christmas? That is important!
Do you believe in the Virgin Mary?
Who is she?
Do you believe that your sins will be forgiven
when you call her Son for his help?
Keep digging between the presents, you may find a
little naked baby next his beloved mother who with
a broken heart recognizes that he is going to die on
a cross to save you.
Do you believe in Jesus?
Yes, I do! But where is He?
He is in the heart of those who open it and receive
Him as their Lord and Savior!

PRISE HIM HE LOVES YOU!

"OUT OF BALANCE"

What happens when we carry a heavy weight on one arm
and nothing on the other?
Right! We begin walking toward the side with more weight,
we become imbalanced!
But we can regain our balance just by putting down the weight.
Easy right? No! It is not!
They are two very important things in the world for us:
The material, and the spiritual.
The material things are first of all, our lives, our families,
our job, our desire to succeed in life, to be rich, to become a
famous person, etc.
But when our heart stops beating, all those important things
we had, have no meaning anymore for us!
Now the scene changes, our body is death but our soul
continues living in a completely unbalanced life.
Lots of sin on our left but nothing spiritual on the right!
Why?, Because when we were alive, we gave too much
importance to the material things of the world, forgetting
everything about the spiritual issues of God!
I had the opportunity to talk to some people about God, but
when I was touching the most important part, a phone rings,
wait a second one said and answered it, then, when he
finished, he said: I’m sorry, what were you saying?
Oh, I was talking about the importance of the spiritual life
Look, I said, and the telephone rang again!
The man stood up and went outside.
But in the meantime he answers it, let me tell you this:
In ten, twenty or a hundred years from now, who is going
to care about the importance of this call?
However, in the spiritual realm, everything is eternal!
Everything is important!
Our Father which are in heaven… Remember this prayer?
Well, then, keep practicing it, imbed it in your brain!
In your heart, in your hole being, because one day for sure,
you are going to need it!
Don’t forget!
The most important things are not the material ones only,
but to have a perfect balance with the spiritual, better yet:
To have God as the center of your life!

PRAISE HIM! HE LOVES YOU!

"CARNAL OR SPIRITUAL"

I believe in Jesus but I do not feel inside of me, the desire to help
people like other Christians, what can I do to serve God better?
Wow! What a question my friend?
Look: By ourselves we cannot love people because our carnality
won’t let us do it!
Love is spiritual, therefore, we need God’s help!
We need to be born again!
Then, tell me please: How could I know if I am a born again?
Well, if you don’t know it, probably you aren’t but if you want
to become one, you could! Listen:
Do you feel the desire to talk to others about Christ’s Salvation?
Do you feel the desire to know more about your Creator?
Is heaven in your agenda?
Born again believers are God’s new creatures, made to love!
The past has already past, forgiven and forgotten when you
accept Christ as your Savior!
Then, and only then, begins a new life to love God and people.
To be born again is to abandon sin and begin serving God in
spirit and in truth!
It is like standing in front of two roads and decide once and
for all, to abandon our carnality and accept to follow Christ!
The world erects a huge wall between God and us thru religion,
But Jesus provides us a “ladder’ to escape toward God!
Jesus is that: “Ladder”! He is our help! Ask Him!
To be a born again believer is to feel inside of us the desire
to share God with everyone!
The next time you find yourself in front of the cross roads…
Simply, choose Jesus!

“God did not sent his Son to condemn the world
but to save it!” John 3-17.

To be a born again believer is to accept Jesus Christ
as your Lord and Savior!
Have you done it?

PRAISE THE LORD!
