Pero Jesús se dio la vuelta...

Pero Jesús se dio la vuelta, miró a sus discípulos, y reprendió a Pedro. —¡Aléjate de mí, Satanás! —le dijo—. Tú no piensas en las cosas de Dios sino en las de los hombres. Entonces llamó a la multitud y a sus discípulos. —Si alguien quiere ser mi discípulo —les dijo—, que se niegue a sí mismo, lleve su cruz y me siga. Porque el que quiera salvar su vida, la perderá; pero el que pierda su vida por mi causa y por el evangelio, la salvará. (Marco 8:33-35 NVI) Si confiamos en Dios como decimos porque se les hace tan difícil seguir esta regla. Porque y para que seguimos a Dios?. Mi satisfacción no es decir soy cristiano, mi satisfacción es ser un discípulo y funcionar como tal en la obra de Dios. Así qué sí estas cansado de hacer las mismas cosas en el mundo todos los días, te invito a que veas las maravillas que Dios te presenta en su obra cada día un día a la vez. Orar sin cesar!! No dejemos de orar por los jóvenes. Dios te bendiga!! Amén

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.
