When I don't read my Bible, I misaligned myself from God, I start loosing interest into what He loves; but there is the Holy Spirit that nudges me, that pushes me to not stop going to church. I need to start aligning myself with God so that I can my first love back, soul-winning and helping out at church like I used to. I may never be the same as  I was before, but being slightly like I was before is worth the victory.  One needs to be careful into believing too much of what one can do and what one cannot do. One needs just to obey and the rest will play out like how God wants to.  I need to figure something out fast before I  take a turn for the worst.    

How can one know when you have tried God's patience again and again and again? He has given me so many chances and every time I fail to take it. Sin and temptation are always close behind me, waiting on me to make una burrada in which I will drop bottom and never get back up. I have had hiccups but every time I get up again and I try and try to regain my foot hold but those hiccups always happens. They happen because my focus is not on God or in my church, my focus is to get enough rest and sleep so I can work well for Vons. I need to focus my strength where it matters, in God's vineyard. God hasn't discipline me yet because of my hiccups brought by temptation and sin and of not having dominio propio; of having my flesh and its desires in check.   If I don't get those hiccups in control and my flesh in check, sooner or later I will find myself in rock bottom and  my friends and family will giver their back to me; that will be when God's patience has run out

Parties or gathering can really depress me. I don't see the sense in being at place for a very long time just chatting it up, because I am not the typical chatting mouth. I am terrible at parties; when I'm in a room with people, it feels like the walls are caving on me and I "suffocate", before I show a sign of depression or "angry" I just bolt; I don't say bye. Yesterday I tagged along with a brother of mine from church because he was invited to a "party", once I get to place that people have already showed, I hesitate to enter (even with people that I know) I ate and I'm done, nothing more to do, just wait until its over but with convivios like this one, they get long... I just don't get it why they last so long. We got there like 7ish, I didn't last long, but they did, maybe they came home around 10ish... so much time.... I guess I need to change, but why can't I be myself? Why can't  I keep to myself? When I

How many times can one fail God before spiraling out of control? How many times can fail before God calls it quit and doesn't respond to one's prayer? God demands that we forgive others 7X70 just like He has forgiven us.  God's forgiveness is limitless and surpasses our understanding of what it means to forgive. God is the only one that should call the shots and the only that can trow in the towel. He knows our limits, He wants to push us past those limits because when we are weak, we are strong  through Him. I'm trying my best to not fail God in every way.  I just learned now that I can go in early on Saturday nights for Sunday morning so I can be on time for church.  My church is passing through some patches but with God we  will pass with flying colors.   

Dice Dios, me amas? Se repite, me amas? Entonces porque sigues derrotado? Por que sigues miserable? Por que sigues agotado? No sabes que yo tengo poder para borrar todo eso y mas? Acaso no confias en mi? Acaso mi poder es es suficiente para ti? Crees que perdistes todo? Eso no es cierto. Yo soy el Alfa y el Omega, El Principio y el fin.

How can God love me when I fail to obey Him? How can God love me when He is not always in my mind? How can God love me when I keep quiet about His awesome gift to humanity?  I am a born again Christian, and I need to start acting like one. I should leave anything behind that is a hindrance on my walk with God like for example: being a procrastinator.  I need to start loving God in my obedience to His Word.   

1 Kings 16:13 That which is not of God is worthless. Its worthless to slave away at work when God is not in your thoughts, when He is not your priority. If your are trying to be the best worker that your company can have, you are focusing on the wrong area. Focus being the child of God that you are and everything else will align properly. Be what God wishes you to be, spotless and with no wrinkles; sin and temptation are what causes the wrinkles y las manchas. Be what you are meant to be, sanctified and consecrated. 1 Kings 17:24 Why should I be taken seriously? Is it because I'm child of God? Because I'm older? Why should people care what I say and not say, what I do and don't do? Then again, I don't want to be a pointless somebody, but I am. Without God, I am nobody, without God, I can't be taken serioulsy. You want to be taken seriously? Man up and obey God. He needs to be your priority every time. Just like frozen should be your priority, l

1 Kings 11:6 Me refused to follow God? I shall never stop following God but my actions speaks louder that typed words. You can say something today but later down the road you will do the opposite. One needs to be consistent in what one believes. I don't want to be something that I'm not. The way I portray myself online, am I living in real life?

Sometimes I want to grow wings and fly very far away, but why? Why the anxiety, what is troubling you? What ever is troubling you, God can take care of it if only you allow it. Work and family demand so much from us but that's life. Life is very demanding. Every where you go, you'll see people stressing, you'll see people worrying but do you know the difference between you and them? You have the Holy Spirit residing in you, what more do you want? The Holy Spirit is our Comforter, He is there to lend us a hand when doubts and stress come sneaking in. Life is demanding but you shouldn't go against it alone.
