Juan 3:16

The day was DEC 17 1903 the place was KEDIHOK NC ORVEL AND WIRVEL RIGT HAD JUST MADE HISTORY BY KEPIN their flying invention in the air for a total of 59 seconds. They were so elated they rushed to the telegraph office and wire their sister in Dayton Ohio “first sustained flight today for 59 seconds” the message wred, “hope to be home by Christmas” their sister was so thrilled she rushed to the Dayton daily news and gived them the telegraph so they can published in the paper. Sure enough they next day there was an article about the writes in the paper the head line wered like this
“local bicycle merchant to be home for the holidays” there was not one mention of their 59 second flight in the entire article. I red that and I though that is the way we do Christmas so often, everything around the circumference gets written up and the real wonder of the season gets lost in fact in many circles it doesn’t get even mention

Serve With Joy

For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works. Ephesians 2:10a

Recently a young man wrote to a noted business magazine, asking advice about his job. He said he had fallen into the position because there were no other options for him, but it was a job he hated. He detested arriving at the office every morning, was bored out of his mind all day, and left as early as possible every afternoon. He so disliked his work that it was affecting his sleep and his relationship with his girlfriend and parents. He found his clients "boorish," his position "worthless," and his work was "mindless, menial, miserable drudgery."
Perhaps we all face an unpleasant job situation at one time or another, but our work for the Lord is a different matter. As Christians, we're each given a personal ministry, a work that only we can do for the Kingdom. Every day we have the obligation of fulfilling the Lord's agenda for our lives, and every day there are some good works for us to do. These aren't burdensome or boring. They are enriching, fruitful, and pleasing to the Lord. How wonderful that the Divine Employer has a task for us today! Serve Him with joy and always abound in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
Good works do not make a good man; but a good man does good works. Martin Luther

El Mejor Make Over

Tal vez alguien pregunte: «¿Cómo resucitarán los muertos? ¿Con qué clase de cuerpo vendrán?» ¡Qué tontería! Lo que tú siembras no cobra vida a menos que muera. No plantas el cuerpo que luego ha de nacer sino que siembras una simple semilla de trigo o de otro grano. Pero Dios le da el cuerpo que quiso darle, y a cada clase de semilla le da un cuerpo propio. 1 Cor. 15:35
Ayer pensaba en este versículo mientras iba camino a la tienda a comprar comida para mis perros, seremos cambiados en un abrir y cerrar de ojos nuestro cuerpo sufrirá el Make over mas grandioso que nos podamos imaginar, y no es algo temporal o que necesita mantenimiento, sino que será un cuerpo celestial, como el de Jesús.
Así sucederá también con la resurrección de los muertos. Lo que se siembra en corrupción, resucita en incorrupción; lo que se siembra en oprobio, resucita en gloria; lo que se siembra en debilidad, resucita en poder; se siembra un cuerpo natural, resucita un cuerpo espiritual. 1 Cor. 15:40
Pienso en las personas que han sufrido de alguna deficiencia física tal vez toda su vida, que gran esperanza es esta, no habrán ciegos, ni paralíticos, ni enfermedades mentales, El Señor mismo estará con nosotros. Nos gozaremos en las bodas del Cordero y luego regresaremos con El a tomar posesión de la Tierra, y entonces el ultimo enemigo la muerte misma será destruida finalmente. Fíjense bien en el misterio que les voy a revelar: No todos moriremos, pero todos seremos transformados, en un instante, en un abrir y cerrar de ojos, al toque final de la trompeta. Pues sonará la trompeta y los muertos resucitarán con un cuerpo incorruptible, y nosotros seremos transformados. Porque lo corruptible tiene que revestirse de lo incorruptible, y lo mortal, de inmortalidad. Cuando lo corruptible se revista de lo incorruptible, y lo mortal, de inmortalidad, entonces se cumplirá lo que está escrito: «La muerte ha sido devorada por la victoria.»
«¿Dónde está, oh muerte, tu victoria? ¿Dónde está, oh muerte, tu aguijón?» 1Co 15:51

Camping in NC

Camping es una de esas cosas que se me había olvidado how fun it is, la semana pasada llevamos al grupo de jóvenes de la iglesia a Davidson’s River Campgroun en NC. Realmente no pudimos disfrutar del rio porque el agua estaba súper baja, pero pudimos hacer una caminata hacia la punta de una loma de donde se podía disfrutar de un paisaje hermoso. Me gusta más acampar en un lugar que sea sin tanta restricción, lo digo porque en este lugar fue imposible disfrutar la fogata y dejar que los muchachos se relajen porque pasada las 10pm no podíamos hacer ningún ruido, y obviamente con teenagers eso es imposible.

Pero bueno pasamos muy bien, mi pastor tuvo que pelear con un zorrillo que quería llavearse la basura a media noche, eso sí que fue chistoso.

Finally Rain

Look at this butterfly, the photo does not make her justice. The real colors were awesome, and she was so friendly, did not get away even though I was very near. Finally we got some rain, not as much as we need but something is better than nothing, everithing look so happy and alive now. Thank you Yahweh

SOMETHING ABOUT FOOD

Eat locally grown produces, who would have thought that make such a difference? Well Barbara Kingsolver, with Steven L. Hopp and Camille Kingsolver for 1 year ate only things that were in season, bought only locally grown produces and are changing the way we look at food in the market. Have you ever stop to think how long a typical fruit travels to get to your supermarket?. Think about 1500 miles !!! that is not even counting with the produces that come from other countries, in their book they encourage us to purchase from the local farmers market. This year we planted a big garden, we have eaten so many things from it, watermelons, cantaloupes, peppers, tomatoes mmmmmm there is nothing like a fresh tomato, it taste completely different than the ones purchased at the store. Of course we can a lot of it

YEAP that is my Hubby he's the gardener, I’m the eater it works really good for us.

Advice That Rings True

I like to share with you this devotional I got in the email from Turning Point ministries

Last year in Jackson, Mississippi, a newspaper reported about a man whose wedding ring saved his life. He was working in an antique store when two men walked in and asked to see a coin collection. One of the men pulled a gun and demanded money. When the gunman fired a shot, the clerk threw up his hand instinctively to shield himself, and his wedding ring deflected the bullet.
That ring on a husband's fourth finger is more than a piece of jewelry; it's a life-changing symbol. It stands for his commitment to put the needs of his wife before his own needs. He's to love her as Christ loves the church.
That includes simple everyday affection—a hug, a kiss, an ear to listen, hands to help with the housework, well-chosen compliments and words of encouragement, an evening out, a romantic date. Dating after marriage, in fact, is one of the great keys to a long-lasting romance. These are things that can deflect the devil's bullets and protect a marriage.
If you are married, when you see the ring on your finger, think of God's advice that always rings true: Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church.
Few things are as hollow as a relationship intended for passion that instead is marked by mere duty…. A love relationship… is what God intends us to have.
Maxie Dunnam

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her.
Ephesians 5:25

Canning Day

Estaba deliciosa, un poquito picantita pero buena Wally is becoming an expert



This is a watermelon and a cantaloupe isn't this the most strange cantaloupe you have ever seen? It is called a banana cantaloupe, is like the most delicious and sweetest of any I have ever tasted.
