Mirror mirror on the wall... who is the fairest of them all?

Have you ever looked in the mirror and really examined what you look like? Have you ever looked at your eyes up close for a period longer than 5 minutes to then realize that they don’t look like your eyes anymore? Have you taken a look at your hands and the way the lines in your palm are formed? Did you ever notice that you have a dip below your nose and above your lips? Did you know that you were formed from the outside in?

Those are a lot of questions to answer. Some I am sure you have never thought about. I have! I have spent a good 10 minutes just looking at my face: my eyelashes, eyeballs, nose, lips, mouth, teeth…

Have you?

You should because when you look and pay attention to all the detail that it took to make you the way that you are, you would see a glimpse of what God looks like. Genesis 1:27 (NIV) says “So GOD created mankind in his own image, in the image of GOD he created them, male and female he created them.”

Take a moment to take a look at the creation God made in HIS own image.

Then take a look at your heart and ask yourself do I reflect GOD’s image in my life? You know what the answer should be…

"…I died to the Law, that I might live unto God. I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and delivered Himself up for me." (Galatians 2:19-20).

Reflect HIS image and let HIM be your guide in all that you do. Remember that when God looks at you he sees the beauty of his son JESUS CHRIST.

Have a blessed day!

Before I was conceived HE knew me...

Before I even formed you in your mother’s womb, I knew all about you. Before you drew your first breath, I had already chosen you to be My prophet to speak My word to the nations.  ---Jeremiah 1:5 (The Voice)

WOW!! The Lord of Lords knew me before I was conceived. Before I took my first breath he had already written my destiny. To be HIS prophet, to spread HIS word. WOW!!

As we prepare our hearts for Easter and the GREATEST NEWS OF ALL TIME it is good to pause and look back. They say hindsight is 20/20 – never did I understand that more than I understand it today. Of course where you are going is unnerving and blurry, because you have never been there. Where you have been is clear as day, because it’s where you came from.

Have you taken a step back to reflect where you came from and imagine where you are going? Or are you too busy planning for the future to learn from the past?

It is true there is no point in dwelling on the past because you cannot change it but when you lay the pieces of your life before you, you can see the beautiful path that GOD laid down for you BEFORE YOU WERE EVEN CONCEIVED.

Take a look back in time when Jesus prayed the night that he was betrayed. The disciples worried and were burdened by the news of the plan that GOD laid down for Jesus. They were willing to fight with the men who came to take Jesus away. They were ready to change those plans that GOD had made. Can you imagine what would be of US had they intervened? Can you imagine what would be of US had Jesus not died for our sins? Where would we be? How would our relationship with GOD be? Would we still need the “Holy of Holies” to speak to GOD?

The things that happened to Jesus happened because that was HIS destiny – HIS STORY. Because God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son (JESUS), that whoever believes in HIM shall not perish but have eternal life.

A beautiful blessing came out of a trying time. The gift of Grace, Salvation and Everlasting Life came from that. No one knows the plans laid before them, other than GOD. No one knows what the future holds, other than GOD. But I can tell you that looking back I can see that the plans for me are beautiful. That he is preparing my heart, my family and my friends for the WORK OF GOD. He is preparing my life as a PROPHET and he is preparing me to speak to the NATIONS.

Take a look back at your life and give thanks for what was, what is and what will forever be: GOD and JESUS CHRIST. Thank HIM for speaking your name, thank HIM for knowing you before you were conceived, thank HIM for the plans he has written for you, thank HIM for the great work HE will do through you and in ALL THINGS THANK HIM. Remember JESUS died for YOUR SINS because HE WANTED TO not because HE HAD TO. Be thankful for that. This Easter season give thanks, praise and worship THE ONE that gave you LIFE and a chance to live FOREVER in HEAVEN.

Remember: You are who GOD says you are: HIS prophet to speak HIS WORD to THE NATIONS.

Use your story to spread the message of hope this Easter season and remember Be thankful for what you are going through and in the midst of trouble give thanks.

God Bless!!

In Jesus name we pray

In Jesus name we pray.

We pray because we can’t do it alone.

We pray because it’s easier to speak to the source than to the world.

We pray because it fills us.

We pray because it makes us new!!

Jesus turned, and seeing her he said, “Take heart, daughter; your faith has made you well.” And instantly the woman was made well.   Matthew 9:22

My faith is making me well!!!

MY GOD is GREATER,

MY GOD is STRONGER,

MY GOD is HIGHER than any other,

MY GOD is HEALER,

AWESOME and POWER:

MY GOD!!!! MY GOD!!!

Those lyrics reign truer today after receiving the CALL OF A LIFETIME. Dr. KAOUK from CLEVELAND CLINIC said he would OPERATE on my KIDNEY to REMOVE the CANCER. What SWEET NEWS!!! What a PRAYER ANSWERED!!! So many people have prayed and continue praying for me, my health, my operation, my family and my sanity. To those people I say THANK YOU!!! From the BOTTOM of MY HEART and GOD will BLESS you for your FAITH in him!!!

GOD BREATHED LIFE INTO ME WHEN HE SAID MY NAME, he brought me into this world, SAVED ME and MY HOUSE and gave me NEW LIFE IN JESUS through BAPTISM, and now he’s ELIMINATED CANCER and given me LIFE, AGAIN!!!! So today I TAKE HEART, and KNOW that MY FAITH will make me WELL in JESUS’ NAME!!!

If you still need PROOF that HE exists,

call me and I’ll tell you OTHERWISE

If GOD is for us, who can be against us??

What a great way to start your day, asking:

“if MY GOD is for ME, that who can be AGAINST me?”

If we don’t reflect on THE WORD of GOD then we forget our reason for being and our job of disseminating THE GOSPEL. Our job description is fulfill THE GREAT COMMISSION!!

THE GREAT COMMISSION: Matthew 28:18-20 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age

No one can be against us because WE are COVERED by the blood of JESUS, guided by the HOLY SPIRIT, held by THE FATHER and saved by THE SON! What greater proof do you need that you are invincible! So today work to fulfill your mission, saving soles and remember – “NOONE can hold you down because, GOD’s got your back!!”

GOD LIVES... I know because HE lives in Me!!!

In the midst of it all when I let the world into my head I begin to fear and have moments of weakness and God is always there to draw me back. No one but God knows what I am going through and NOONE but HIM can understand the fear I live with everyday: the fear of not loving enough, not learning enough, not laughing enough, not living enough. The fear of what will be if I am no longer.


AND yet I live in AWE everyday in this AWESOME experience, I have learned how beautiful life is, how great the sun feels on my skin, how melodious it is to hear the birds chirp, to pay bills, to go to work, to shower, to hug, to kiss and to love. I am so FOREVER grateful for this life that HE has given me (although I am not worthy). The great family and friends that HE has hand selected to walk this path with me. I make plans and God changes them, sometimes I FEEL they don’t seem to be the best plans for me but that’s OKAY, because God promises that HE has plans to PROSPER me, NOT HARM ME, Plans for a HOPE and a FUTURE!! SO GLAD HE HAS PLANS THAT ALWAYS WORK OUT. I’m glad I did not write the book on “Me” because only the perfect author, the all-knowing-everywhere-at-one-time-God, could make my life a living fairy tale because HIS timing is perfect, and HE puts me where HE wants me to be at THIS and every moment to be able to experience the AWESOMENESS of HIS divine plan.

I remember one day at Potential Church when I was teaching in Kids Ministry when I taught of the story of Esther and I could not make it through the teaching without shedding a tear and praying that I wished I was her, I wished that I was saving a nation, leading a multitude of people to the King. I prayed for that (2008) and I waited, I went on with my life and prayed for that, I got pregnant (2010) and prayed for that, I got Cancer (2012) and I prayed for that and one day God had someone speak to me. They told me that God was preparing me for my dream of leading people to Christ, she told me that he was writing the details of “My Story” – the story I would share with the world to show of HIS mercy, HIS blessings and HIS hand in ALL that is, that was and that will be. She said, make this your motto “ Vivire y contare de las obras de Jeova” – “I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the LORD has done.” AND SO IT IS!!!

I am living and proclaiming that CANCER WILL NOT TAKE ME, the DEVIL WILL NOT BREAK ME because I am HEIR to the throne of the ALMIGHT GOD: JEHOVA-JIREH, the ALMIGHTY PHYSICIAN JEHOVA-RAPHA, the eternal and everlasting GOD: EL OLAM.

As I write this I SMILE from ear to ear and CRY because I can see HIS HAND work IN ME and FOR ME. The best thing out of all of this besides my relationship with GOD is: “Sometimes the dreams that come true are the dreams that you never even knew you had” AND boy are these DREAMS spectacular!!!

Praise GOD & today & everyday give thanks!!
