Wealthy

Hey Fellas!

Holidays are few days away from now! It has been a great year I must say. In my Language Arts class we were reading a book named "The Cellist of Sarajevo"; simply amazing! It really touched my heart the way people were living in the World War II, and the way a man decided to share hope and peace to people that surrounded him. I could say that the message of this book is for us to appreciate life itself; that life itself is a precious treasure. This message moved me to write this post. I want to share with you about the beautiful gift God gave to every single person; the gift of being alive! Some people don't appreciate this amazing gift and they just throw it to the waste-basket. Some others might believe that they don't worth a thing but the truth is that your life was so precious and pretty for the Lord that He sent His only Son to die on a cross to give you eternal life, and for you to have an amazing time here on Earth. You are important... you matter! Your happiness here on Earth should not depend of the amount of money you have in the bank but it should depend in the satisfaction of having the most beautiful person living inside of you; the Holy Spirit.

In these days I have found so many people that are worried because they don't have enough money in their pockets to buy things they really don't need; in this particular month of the year people waste a lot of money! Because of this, many people believe that their economical situation is going through difficulties. Being prospered or being wealthy is not directly proportional to how much money you have in the bank. The Bible tells us that when we give the first wage or salary to the Lord, He will bless you abundantly. These blessings are not always related to money. The Lord can bless you in many ways, for example, He can take care of your health and you won't have the necessity to go to the doctor or to buy medicines because you have health, meaning that your money will endure a bit more. The Lord can also bring you peace by protecting you; you won't have to spend a lot of money in security. Some people might have a lot of money but they are 100% happy. In fact, the Lord is the Only one who can bring you real happiness. If you have the Holy Spirit living in you, then God is with you, meaning that you have the chance and opportunity of being truly happy.  I'm not saying that money is from the devil, but sometimes people place money in an altar and that's what God doesn't like. He wants for us depend on Him, not on money. I want to tell you a short testimony that happened a week ago. My grandmother is 89 years old but she is an active person who likes to tell jokes and make everyone believe that they are important (which is true). Last week they took her to the hospital because one of her blood-vessels got messed up. She was in the emergency room but she always keep herself in peace and not worried about what was going to happen. Everything went fine, she got out of the hospital the next day and went home. When we went to see how was she doing, she was laughing and telling us her stories. My grandma told us something that her doctor told her: "If you want to live more years you must keep yourself in constant peace". Even the doctors know that money is not a factor that tells you how many years are you going to live. There is a command that if we follow it, God will give us a long prospered life; "Honor your parents". Even if they are not the best parents ever existed you still have to honor them because if you do then God will be pleased and will accomplish what He promised.

I hope you are all having a great time full of the God's presence. I want to bless you all in Jesus' name and declare you will always walk in His Holy Path.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!
