Never discourage
(Ever Ruiz Jose Urdaneta)
The sole survivor of a shipwreck came to the beach and a tiny uninhabited island. Requested fervently to God be rescued, and scrutinized the horizon every day looking for help, but did not appear to arrive. Tired, finally opted to build a wooden hut to protect themselves from the elements and store their few belongings. Then one day, after de Merode by the island in search of food, returned to his home to find his little cabin engulfed in flames, with smoke ascending to heaven. The worst had happened, he had lost everything. I am overwhelmed with sadness and anger. "God, as we do this?" - lamented. However, the next day was awakened by the sound of a boat that was approaching the island. They had come to rescue him. "How knew you were here?" "asked the man to their tired rescuers. "We saw your smoke signal" they replied. It is easily discouraged when things go wrong, but we must not discouraged because God works in our lives even in the midst of pain and suffering. Remember the next time your herd becomes smoke, may be the signal that the help and grace of God comes on the way.
Proverbs 14
1Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.
2He that walketh in his uprightness feareth the LORD: but he that is perverse in his ways despiseth him.
3In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride: but the lips of the wise shall preserve them.
4Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by the strength of the ox.
5A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies.
6A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: but knowledge is easy unto him that understandeth.
7Go from the presence of a foolish man, when thou perceivest not in him the lips of knowledge.
8The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit.
9Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.
10The heart knoweth his own bitterness; and a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy.
Psalm 134
1Behold, bless ye the LORD, all ye servants of the LORD, which by night stand in the house of the LORD.
2Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the LORD.
3The LORD that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.
Sir, the day begins
(Enrique Diaz Canedo)
Lord, the day begins. As always,
prostrate at your feet, the light of day
we expect. Eres force
we have the weak us.
Our Father,
that those in heaven, do the men
equal: that none shame
the others all the groans that
den consolation; everyone, who suffers
hunger torture, gave him
in rich white tablecloths table
generous with white bread and wine;
jamas not fight; than ever emerge,
mieses between the aura of history,
bloody poppies, the battles.
Light, Lord, illuminating the campinas
and cities; than men all,
sparkles in their magicos, wrap
light immortal; Lord, light of heaven,
source and cause of love of life.

Psalms 106:12 Then believed his words and sang his praise.
2 Corinthians 4:13 And taking the same spirit of faith according to what is written: "I thought, so I spoke," we too believe, and thus also speak.
Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged,
for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.
Joshua 1:9
God’s Appointed Time
We must be aware that if we get out of God’s
timing, it’s the same as getting out of God’s will.
We need to be patient and let God bring His plan
together at the appointed time. That is not to
say that we should sit back passively and
expect God to do everything. No, we
have to aggressively pursue our
dreams. But if a door is not
opening, don’t try to make
things happen in your
own strength.
We give thanks to you, O God…men tell of your wonderful deeds.
You say, “I choose the appointed time; it is I who judge uprightly.”
Psalm 75:1-2
Every Day is a new comienzoManten your heart joyful and happy in SeñorY put a smile on your face
