Y dijo...

y dijo: « Señor, Dios de nuestros antepasados, ¿no eres tú el Dios del cielo, y el que gobierna a todas las naciones? ¡Es tal tu fuerza y tu poder que no hay quien pueda resistirte! ¿No fuiste tú, Dios nuestro, quien a los ojos de tu pueblo Israel expulsó a los habitantes de esta tierra? ¿Y no fuiste tú quien les dio para siempre esta tierra a los descendientes de tu amigo Abraham? “Cuando nos sobrevenga una calamidad, o un castigo por medio de la espada, o la peste o el hambre, si nos congregamos ante ti, en este templo donde habitas, y clamamos a ti en medio de nuestra aflicción, tú nos escucharás y nos salvarás.” (2 Crónicas 20:6, 7, 9 NVI) No sólo Josafat puede hacer una oración como esta. Gracias a Jesús nosotros también la podemos hacer . No porque somos pecadores, por la culpa dejamos de orar al contrario es cuando más debemos de juntar nuestras fuerzas.. Orar sin cesar!! Dios te bendiga!! Amén (No dejes de ir al templo)

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.
