When we think is not what we think it is.

The Lord shows us multiple scenarios of our life. We choose what we want, but when we take His will into our life, we can choose wisely and make the best of it with what He has prepared for us. We also need to understand that it is not about us, but it’s for His kingdom. Unfortunately, we constantly battle the flesh, and we want to be right or be in control, but by releasing all the power and control to the Creator of the universe, we gain more. We can only do so much with wh

Inspiring Faith

John 1:44–51 44 Now aPhilip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. 45 Philip found bNathanael and said to him, “We have found Him of whom Moses in the law, and also the prophets, wrote—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”46 And Nathanael said to him, g“Can anything good come out of Nazareth?”Philip said to him, “Come and see.”47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, “Behold, han Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”48 Nathanael said to Him, “How do You know me?”Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”49 Nathanael answered and said to Him, “Rabbi, iYou are the Son of God! You are jthe King of Israel!”50 Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these.” 51 And He said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, khereafter 6you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.”As I was watching a video from the show the Chosen regarding this scripture when Jesus encounter Nathaniel for the first time in Caesarea of Philippie He told him that He saw him even in his lowest moments the same way while back in 2014 when I went stray from God’s presence ( or so I thought) Ikept feeling a presence, little did I know that I was God watching over me outside the my window. Carefully looking over my sleep and my life even when I rejected Him, He still care, He still was by my side carefully witnessing my “accomplishments” I owe Him everything. I know deeply that subconsciously I was trying to please Him and prove my worth by graduating and having a career and being able to work and do what I desired since I was child but now I know that it’s time to leave that shallow life behind a work for His kingdom. I created a life where I put God aside in order to complete a journey or being able to finish a degree that /I though will bring me joy and satisfaction but it only brought me more depression and anxiety in order to be perfect or have everything under control. Nothing made sense until now. He was paving the way for me to be here. I traveled the world to get here and He brought me here. I got myself into a wilderness that He didn’t had for me but He was there during the process keeping me safe. I could’ve die so many times but His powerful hand protected me. With His guidance and wisdom I will care for His kingdom and His lost sheep. He made me a fisherman and I only need to catch He will sort it out later.

By writing a variety of my life in this earth and stories that mark a cornerstone in my faith and my growth in Christ I hope to touch people's' hearts and souls the same way I was encouraged and lifted up by others brethren from the body of Christ.

disclaimer: We all fall short from the glory of God, this is just a tool to show you God's mercies and grace and that to get to know the God in the heavens that LOVES you so much that He gave His onlyy begotten son so you can have everlasting life,

There is only one found worthy.

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

3 Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day.

Genesis 1:1-5

The word beginning in the bible has a Hebrew Bereshit that translates into the

B'-: A prepositional prefix meaning "in" or "with".

Reshit: Derived from the root word rosh (רֹאשׁ), meaning "head" or "beginning".

This root suggests a starting point, the leader, or the most important thing from which everything else flows.When God created the universe He was, is and is to come because He doesn’t rule by timing when say God timing is perfect it’s because He does it when He knows we are ready. I always used to say: God will never give me more than I can handle! <<Wrong>> He allow us to go to tribulation and struggle so we can cry up to Him.

I always quote psalms 23 because He is my shepherd and I shall not want. I don’t want the world to fill the void, that only God can fill. All I want is for the Lord to fill my cup every single day. In the beginning when God created the universe, He also created man and woman on His image. We were one with the trinity then we sin against God by disobeying His mandate to not eat from the fruit from the tree of knowledge of God and evil. We know it all, He did not wanted us to have the burden in our shoulders, He wanted us to be fruitful without the worries of the good/evil consequences. Like children He wanted us to obey Him and enjoy altogether from His creation. When temptation comes (the devil) that he was cast out from heaven he did not like the idea of us enjoying what he cannot have. Out of jealousy and evilness he broke the covenant and made us fall.

I always think over and over, I would have probably do the same. We always wanna have what are not allowed to have. That day marked a pin a huge event in human history. God in His infinite love for us He did the first sacrifice for us and did another covenant that we will atone for our sins with animal sacrifice according to our sin. That went on and on for generations until God said it’s enough and Jesus in His infinite love came down to us to earth to live among us, to laugh, cry, enjoy, suffer, get angry, dance, drink, eat, rest, work, read, write and craft all that while He knew the weight that He will have to bear, That after 33 years walking among His father’s creation and after being turned to the “authorities” and be mocked, stripped from his clothing, lashed, whipped, beaten, spat at and more horrendous things that I cannot even fathom in my imagination He still decided to die for us.

Many people had stripped the gospels by saying that even the son of God thought He was abandoned when he said: "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" translates to "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?". The phrase comes from the first verse of Psalm 22. Even beaten and with one foot at the doorsteps of death He still remembered His father’s words that were brought to humanity by prophets. He still decided to die for you and I. He gave His all His blood until the last drop and thought about you, yes you!! I cannot even fathom how much He can love us that even though He knew that after 2000 years one day I tried to take my own life He still loved me and knew that so deeply that He sent a dove to bring me back to light from that pit of mud that I was on. This is the very first time I say this in public out loud. When you see someone that has everything together ask me about Jesus and I will tell you the marvelous things that I didn’t know and that He showed me that I would never fathom that I will be writing about my Jesus. The Man, The God, The son, The Sacrifice that was just enough for all yours, mine and all the generations to come sins.
