Two Masters


“No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.” ( Luke 16:13)

I like this verse a lot. We were actually talking about it in church this week. Let me give you an example. Have you ever had a mean, cruel boss ??? If you have, did you like working with him/her ?? probably not. That is how the bad master is, he has nothing to offer you but bad things. While you serve him, all he do is make you suffer. He brings you depression, sadness, anger, jealousy, etc...
Many people are serving this bad master thats why nothing in their life works. They don't understand that is the only thing the bad master can offer them; an unpleasant life.
Now in the other hand the Good Master can offer an amazing life, but not a lot of people serve Him. Many say they believe in Him, which is fine but their actions show that they serve the bad master. Our Lord Jesus is the Good Master, and He can offer you the life that you want. All you have to do is serve Him.
You have to decide if you want to keep serving the bad master and live a miserable life or serve the Good Master that can give you an joyful life. Remember you can't be in the middle, is all about decision.
Dear reader, Its your choice if you want to keep your normal life or follow the Only One that can make you happy. What is going to be ??
God Bless

Holy Spirit


I indeed baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.
( Mark 1:8)

Now I choose this verse from the Bible, because its something i see alot in the church. There is alot of people that want to receive the Holy Spirit but they apparently think that the pastor or the assistant can baptized them. I mean assistants, pastors, wives can help you with prayer, with fasting but YOU are the only one that can reach that. It depends on YOU !!!! You have to show God how much you want Him to fill your life. Words are not enough my friend, you really have to SHOW Him. Please understand that pastors can baptized you in water but the Only One that can baptized you with The Holy Spirit is God. Don't depend on the pastor's prayer when you are seeking Him on Wednesdays or Sundays. Also don't just pray at church, pray everywhere you go. Your thirst for God's presence must be like you are drowning in a pool and you cant breathe so you need air. You depend on that air to save you, thats how you should be. You depend on God to live.
Dear reader, if you want to have a true encounter with God, it depends on you and no one else
In faith always

Time to forgive


Have you ever been hurt by someone that you swore you would never forgive them?? I know I have before I got converted. I been hurt before in the past, I remember I held so much anger against the people who had hurt me. I didn't want to forgive them or trust them because in my head I had the idea that they would hurt me again and I didn't want that. I held everything in my heart... The only thing i couldn't see is that I was the one who was getting even more hurt.
It was painful because the person who had hurt me was one of my good "friends". Every time I looked at her... I wanted to just destroy her with words...I know it sounds bad.. but its the true.
After getting converted I finally realize that I had no right to not forgive her. Think about it this way: If God that is so perfect forgave her; How can I ( sinner) judge her and refuse to forgive her ??? Who am I to do that ??? NOBODY !! It was hard to forgive ? yes it was, because I had to swallow my pride, humble myself and forgive her. But also I had to ask for forgiveness from God and from that person. I was wrong just like she was. i thought it was right to just ignore her and give her the cold shoulder.... but it didn't solve anything because I knew what had happen.
So my friend, until when are you going to refuse to forgive ? Until when are you going to live with this heavy load on your shoulders ? Come on !! Forgive and Be Free !!
Then Peter came up and said to him, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you seven times, but seventy times seven.
God Bless
