Merry Christmas 2014 - Happy New Year 2015

Thoughts 2014-2015

 

 

Personal

I have seen God working in my life this year. He is closer than ever. Any fear or doubt from the past has been diluted due to the certainty of His presence and work.

I've learned to listen a little more. That is not an easy task specially when you have one thousand of thoughts going around your head while listening, looking or experiencing something. I still have to grow on this. Now, I read more than ever in the past, and actually I enjoy it. I enjoy reading about different topics that I love such as: God and His work, leadership, planning, coaching, missions, theology, news, and of course my classes of business administration.

I am so blessed due to the presence of God in my life, but also for the marvelous family that He has given to me. As I see my wife and children, I really think that I do not deserve them. Each of them is amazing. I love them so deeply.

I'm really looking forward to 2015, to continue seeing God working more and more, in the ways that someone like Joseph (Jacob's son) saw Him in the Bible."The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness." Lam 3:22-23.
My key words during 2014 are: Transformation (Rom 12:2), Multiplication (2 Tim 2:2), Freedom (2 Rey 7), Jehova Tzur (Jehova my Rock "cliff" Psal 18).

Family

I've been married to a marvelous woman for 21 years. We have been taking long steps together being of mutual support. To explain what I think about her, I have to refer to Proverbs chapter 31. I love her so deeply.
This year, my firstborn and princess Grace took a big step moving to a couple of miles away seeking her dreams, and making decisions to grow. She is not alone on her journey as she has a deep conviction about God. He equipped her with such a talent, and attitude. May our God continue blessing you (my dear daughter) as you go to different places as His ambassador. (Deut 28:1-14)
My son Daniel is already such a man. He enjoys the talents that our Lord equipped him with such as the music and the sports, in order to give Him honor and praise. Son, be strong to finish your high school. Your attitude is going to take you far. (Psal 1:1-3)
My son Miguel jumped this year from being a kid to become a tall good looking young man. God has equipped you with gifts like word and grace. You will continue shaping them to share the Good News to those who do not know the Lord. This year you moved from being a good student to be an excellent one, working hard to fulfill your goals. Continue training yourself to communicate The Message to many nations. (Isa 55:5).

Ministry

God, I have seen your glory this year. Difficult year with a good number of trials and opposition, but also with a lot of more victories and joys. I have seen You working in middle of our ministry team. I am a witness of the impact you have made in each of the countries we have visited, and among those we have served. We also have learned a lot. Today is maybe not the best time for details and explanations, but we have seen your support and presence while we ministered in Costa Rica, Colombia, El Salvador, Panama, Cuba, USA, Peru... new computer centers for pastors, tablets, libraryboxes, digital libraries, trainings, workshops, meetings and much more. Thanks Heavenly God.
The year 2015 is coming with much challenges and opportunities. God has promised to be with me everyday. Also, he has put my family next to me (both the nearest and also the one who is far away in Colombia, Venezuela and USA), friends, ministry partners, organizations, and a whole world waiting for knowing about God, and others to continue growing in Him. (Is 40:30-31)

Support

I depend entirely in God. He has not only sustained me, but also my family, friends, and ministry. Thanks Lord for our life, health, friends, supporters, those who pray for us, those who sacrificially give finances to our ministry, those who counsel us, and those who we are accountable to. God please bless each of them: those who we already know and those who we are going to meet on 2015. You oh Lord has everything prepared, the table is set, please give me discernment, wisdom and humility to follow your steps, and to discover all that you have for the journey you have prepared for us.

"The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace."Num 6:24-26 ... these are my deep wishes for you and yours this 2015.
