Agosto de 2012
La adversidad nos ataca a todos, pero nuestra reacción ante ella nos da un buen indicio de nuestro carácter y nuestra fe. Si culpamos a otros y nos compadecemos de nosotros mismos, la adversidad se convierte en una carga abrumadora, dejándonos agotados, sin esperanza y desmoralizados.
En lugar de todo eso, hagamos que la adversidad sea un puente que nos lleve a una relación más profunda con Dios. Ante cualquier dificultad, usted y yo tenemos oportunidad de admitir nuestra absoluta ineficiencia, lo cual debe motivarnos a buscar el rostro y el auxilio de Dios. Después, cuando estemos dispuestos a depender de la fortaleza de Dios en lugar de la nuestra, descubriremos una fuente poderosa para la vida cotidiana.
Si usted está pasando por una temporada difícil en su vida, no permita que la amargura o el desaliento carcoman los cimientos de su fe. Por el contrario, dé lugar a que sus luchas le impulsen hacia una relación más estrecha con el Señor Jesucristo, y con toda fidelidad Él suplirá sus necesidades conforme a su voluntad y en el momento oportuno.
Gracias por sus fervientes oraciones a favor de Ministerios En Contacto. Siempre que pensamos en usted damos gracias a Dios.
Fraternalmente en Cristo,
Charles F. Stanley

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.
