Amazing Grace🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼

Such a beautiful sound don’t you think?.. that song( hymn) always touches my heart because through grace and love we were able to get redemption.

Now this past two weeks has been a little bit out of control… I started a new job at the  Board Of National Counselors. Anyways so it has been pretty hectic as I’m still getting used to the new job. And in this last two weeks we had the preparations for Father’s Day and the leaving of one of our teens for marine boot camp.

    IMG_0252.JPGThat was me alright. I was crying on Sunday’s service so much that I should be permantly  out of tears( Just kidding ). But yes, one of our teens left for boot camp and we will miss him a lot. I think not many people come across with a youth nowadays that is zealous of the things of God; a youth that  actually seeks God with all their heart. And what can I say; this teen I thank the Lord I was able to meet him and lead him but most importantly I was able to learn from him. God is taking this youth to the marine branch with a purpose and I believe with all my heart that he will be used tremendously; even though all the youth and congregation will miss him. We just know that he has a greater purpose ahead. Something that we can’t see right now but only the Lord knows. 157C94FE-D568-4894-8FCD-7FB885234F8E

Let’s get to happier stuff; so Sunday was Father’s Day… Let me shout it out…. HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!!!!!!!! To all those men of God that guide their family and household in the Lord’s way. You guys deserve all the honor because you guys break your back providing for your family each and every single day. You carry the big responsibility of guiding your family in God’s path and instructing your children to love the Lord. I can say with all my heart that I’m so grateful that God decided to create Adam before Eve. I mean I get we women can be tough and strong for our family and faith most of the time; However it was not the Lord’s want for that to be that way. That is why he created Men; so that they were the ones to be strong and be providers for the family.

John 3: 16

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

I’m so blessed to have three fathers that love and support me. First of all my Heavenly Father because, without him and his love and mercy I would not be here today nor would I have the redemption or eternal life that his son provided through his sacrifice in the cross. There is no greater love than the one that was showed two thousands years ago. I mean what father wants their son or daughter to suffer for the iniquities or sins of others. Even if we are the holiest of holiest I can say with certainty that not one will give one of their children as a sacrificial lamb. Okay; some might argue that Abraham almost did; however even though he might have almost done it to be obedient; his heart was not in it. I can almost say that in that moment his heart was asking another solution; do you guys really thing this guy would give the son that was promise to  him since forever; I mean Isaac was his lineage through his marriage with Sarah, I really don’t think his heart would have accepted it easily after all we are humans.  IMG_2017.JPG

Second of all my Dear Dadddeeeee!!! You  know that just by that word I’m a serious daddy girl😂😂😭 What can I say; when you are the only girl in the family of four boys that’s to be expected😂😉. But anyways I really do thank God because he decided for this man to become my father; he might not be perfect but he has thought me to never give up, to work hard for your stuff but most importantly to really love God. He thought me the morals that I nowadays live through and I’m so grateful that even though I might have been a hellion sometimes in my youth; he has always been my rock and constant thing in my life. I have never doubted his love towards me, my brothers or even my mother. He has been there to give advice, to joke around and sometimes to get psychological and even ask questions or discuss the weirdest or most difficult stuff that humans ask themselves about the Bible and God.. Dad, I love you with my heart and soul not just a small thing but with MI ALMA Y CORAZÓN ❤️ no one can take your place in my heart( actually that happened already… GOD happened 8 years ago but don’t be jealous though there is still room.) Thank you Pa for all you do and will continue to do for our family; in the name of Jesus I bless your life with good health, wisdom but most importantly love for your family and God. LOVE YOU 💜❤️💕💜❤️💕💜💕💜❤️

Now last my pastor or should I say my Spiritual Father. I thank the Lord that he put this Godly man in my life as my pastor, counselor but also as a spiritual father for our family, myself and the youth. Thank you for supporting the youth in everything that we do; sometimes even taking the initiative. You are an inspiration to all the youth and to many of the congregation for your love towards God. God uses you tremendously as a prophet, worshipper but also as father but most importantly as a spiritual father to many. I hope that God continues to use and bless you and your family in everything. And Happy Birthday also, you are nearing your fifties😂😂😂.

Proverbs 3:12

“For whom the LORD loves He corrects, Just as a father the son in whom he delights.”

And Happy Father’s Day to all you fathers those present and those that have already left to be with the Lord. I hope God blesses your lives tremendously each and every single day. That he gives you the wisdom and knowledge but also love to guide your family in his path. Happy Father’s Day to all and God Bless.

P.s. I can be a little bit dramatic, but let’s continue to have in prayer this nation and every single nation , every living soul but most importantly let’s spread Love through our actions and words. Love you all💜💕💜❤️💕

Like a Rushing 💨 💨💨 Wind🗣

Tonight I want to talk about this amazing experience I had with the Holy Spirit tonight.  If you guys don’t know I come from a Latino Pentecostal church. You know that type of church a lot of people call the “Hallelujah’s” or the ‘Religious one”. I do love some of the names people come up with to describe us😂😂. I been raised in that type of church since early childhood; I remember my Grandma just taking me to one near our house back then.  Now my current church or the church I used to go to are not the same as the one where I grew up in. That one was a little bit more “mellow”.

“Like a rushing wind
Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me”

– Hillsong United

This song kind of summons up what I feel like in his presence.

Now I don’t know how many of you have been raised in one or are attending one in this moment. It doesn’t specifically have to be a latino Pentecostal church; it can be a black pentecostal church or white. But you know that when the fire 🔥 of the Holy Spirit comes down to that place; many of you will be leaving completely different. I been raised in a Pentecostal church since childhood and there was a time when I let go of the reins so that the Holy Spirit could work on me; however as I got older I became self-conscious about what people might think about me.🤔😒 I know right; that was bad of me and bad for me because, even though  I stop letting the Holy Spirit take complete control of my life in a single moment and I felt as if I was missing something; people would continue to stare and whisper all the time. It became a bad habit for me, I never gave him complete freedom and now that I’m older it has become more difficult for me to sometimes go into the presence; while worship or the Word is being preached.

However tonight was something completely different; since the start of the service there was this presence in the atmosphere that I just wanted to dance and jump around the whole place. And when the music started to play it felt like a fire was starting to flicker around the place. By the second song the air in the church felt HOT 🔥🔥🔥🔥 it felt like a furnace and I’m not exaggerating. In a moment that I closed my eyes and just decided to let the Holy Spirit have freedom to move in my life; I really don’t know what happened but one moment I was twirling and jumping just as the song was asking and I felt this presence sucker punch me in my whole body. I remember going in circle and feeling sluggish but at the same time I felt like I was burning from the inside out. Words were coming out of my mouth and I don’t even know what they meant and in one moment I hit the floor( BOOM). And I felt this immense need to cry and tears were leaking out my eyes. It’s an experience that I cherish a lot because even though they happen; they don’t always happen that often because I’m too self-conscious of what people will think. And what happened tonight reminded me of that verses in the Bible where John the Baptist was baptizing people in the Jordan Lake👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼;

                         Matthew 3:11

““I baptize you with water, for repentance, but the one coming after me is more powerful than I am – I am not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.”
‭‭

 

And when the disciples where congregated for the day of the Pentecost;

        Acts 2:1-4

“Now when the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like a violent wind blowing came from heaven and filled the entire house where they were sitting. And tongues spreading out like a fire appeared to them and came to rest on each one of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit, and they began to speak in other languages as the Spirit enabled them.”
‭‭

Now don’t go thinking that I’m a religious freak because even though I believe in tongues and the Holy Spirit. I know that even if where to speak all languages of the world but I don’t have love for the homeless, needy, suicidal, prostitute, unbeliever, atheist, alcoholic, drug addict it doesn’t matter, Because for God we are all the same in his eyes. For me this type of stuff it’s special and an intimate thing but I want it to share about it with you guys. Why? You might ask yourselves because I want you guys to know that there is a living God that loves you and I for who we are. And also because when something like this happens I feel as if I’m in the presence of the Lord; I feel more closer to him. Don’t be thinking that I’m without flaws because In have so many; however his love and mercy forgives any transgression or sin I have committed before his presence.

(That’s me when I see one of my youth jumping, running or dancing in the Spirit.)😂💜❤️💜

P.S. Have you guys seen the videos of this christian guys named Taylor Ransom; he makes videos about different type of church praises and church signs. He cracks me up; they are just that funny I like specifically the Pentecostal because it’s so true. We even have a Shofar👀👀😂😂😂😂.

Don’t forget to show the love of Jesus and kindness to everyone. Let’s continue to pray for this world 🌎 there has been too much violence recently; don’t leave those country’s that are in need of GOD out of your prayers. And also remember to share, like and comment on the blog ; let’s share his Word. Love You Guys & God Bless All of You.❤️💜❤️😍😘

My Soul & Life

FullSizeRenderMy Desire for your presence has no limits.

Nor the need in my heart. That aching in my heart intensifies everyday for you.

My soul and life need you; as nourishment for the rest of my life. What can I do?

How can I stop this feeling; that I’m dying without you in my life. Forgive me…

Forgive all transgressions or iniquities that I have committed before you Lord…

Holy Ghost, Jesus Christ you are that nourishment my soul needs… Come into my life Forever…

Open my eyes and take me to your presence; My soul wonders of your presence. 

Of the presence that accepts , guides and loves a troubled person through the most difficult stages in life.

Help me come into that Holy place in which only you can be… Help me look for your Grace  and Love.

Without you all of this is just emptiness and a dark hole that I just can’t escape.

But that sacrifice in the Cross defeated death and made it possible for the grace, mercy and your blood to break every chain in my life.

In the name of Jesus I declare myself a daughter of the most high King. The King of Kings.. I’m Free..
