Gracia Sobre Gracia

He aprendido a contentarme, cualquiera que sea mi situación. Filipenses 4:11
Pruébate con esta pregunta: ¿Qué si el único regalo que Dios da fuera su gracia para salvarnos? ¿Te contentarías? Le suplicarías que salve la vida de tu hijo. Le rogarías que mantenga tu negocio a flote. Le implorarías que elimine el cáncer de tu cuerpo. Que tal si su respuesta es: << Bástate mi gracia>>. ¿Te quedarías contento?
Es que desde la perspectiva del cielo, la gracia es suficiente. Si Dios no hace otra cosa que salvarnos del infierno, ¿puede alguien quejarse? Después de darnos la vida eterna, ¿nos atrevemos a refunfuñar por un cuerpo adolorido? Después de darnos las riquezas celestiales, ¿nos atrevemos a lamentar la pobreza terrenal?
Si tienes ojos para leer estas palabras, internet para entrar a este blog, y medios para comunicarte con tus amigos y familiares, ya tienes gracia sobre gracia.
Dios te bendiga...
Amen

The Danger in Being a Christian: It began as a Jewish sect; fierce persecution only helped it spread Today's reading: Acts 8 Acts 8:1 On that day a great persecution broke out against the church at Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. In some countries, a person who becomes a Christian forfeits a good education and job. And in a few countries, a person who converts risks his or her life. One church historian estimates that more Christians were martyred in the twentieth century than in all preceding centuries put together. Yet, strangely, more often than not, intense persecution of Christians leads to a spurt of growth in the church. An ancient saying expresses this phenomenon: "The blood of martyrs is the seed of the church." The First Big Advance For a while, the new faith enjoyed popular favor. But very soon it involved grave risk. In the book of Acts, the persecution that produced the first Christian martyr, St...

One Day at a Time - May 21

Reflection on Genesis 44:33 Sometimes we get a second chance. When we do, it’s important to seize the opportunity. That’s what Judah did. When his brothers wanted to kill Joseph, Judah didn’t rescue Joseph but instead suggested that they sell him as a slave (see Genesis 37:26–27 ). His second chance came when Benjamin’s life appeared to be in danger. This time Judah put his own life on the line to protect his half brother, Rachel’s other son. Perhaps this commitment was taken into account in the blessings that God inspired Jacob to give his sons; eventually the Messiah came through Judah’s descendants (see Genesis 49:10 ). God often gives us second chances in life. When he does, we need to take advantage of the opportunity and set things right.
