Busy life!

Jesus said "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, took him to an inn and took care of him. The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. 'Look after him,' he said, 'and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.' Luke 10:30-34

So many times we hang a ‘do not disturb me’ sign in our chest. We might get so consumed by our problems or our tasks, that we miss out on who God places on our way. We might even be to busy “serving God” we miss out on who he wants us to serve. Jesus places these situations in our lives to reveal to us what is truly in our hearts. Are we full of God or full of ourselves?

"Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?" The expert in the law replied, "The one who had mercy on him." Jesus told him, "Go and do likewise." Luke 10:35-37

When we start to do life God’s way, we realize that it goes against our nature in so many ways, we have to get ourselves off of our mind, we must give to be full, we must die to live, to deny our self, and focus loving God by loving others. Let God interrupt your life and take those opportunities to put others first, only then can we experience that abundant life God wants for you.

PRAYER

Praise God for:

- The Saturday soccer group, and His hand in it! Especially in my nephew Christian.
- How He’s moving in the school and in my family


Please Pray for:
- All who are trying to put together the soccer camp. For guidance, strength and joy so we can be contagious as we share to others about it
- Ivan as he is taking some very important decisions seeking God, and may this bring so much joy, love and unity in his house

October in Guatemala!

Helloooo!! How are youuu? Yes, I’m here in Guatemala!!
Im doing really good, eating delicious!! Finally I got my beans!! Jejeje
My family is very good, It’s been a challenge but so much joy to know that I get to be light here, and really pray that I am a good testimony, one that stirs hunger for God in my family!


There is a missionary couple here, Victor and Alberdiena, he is from Guatemala and she is from Holand, they work with Ambassadors In Sport as well, so we are planning to have our first soccer camp the second week of December. Please we need showers of prayers!! There is so much to be done, but I am so excited, this is going to be an amazing start of so many things! Especially with the church!!


On Saturdays we are still having soccer matches with some teens and young adults. It’s so much fun! God is using my nephew Christian to encourage his friends and other cousins to come also. We try to have a good time, and after the game, we hang out, share a bit, and have a short prayer time. It’s awesome how a simple game can bring people together, giving us a platform so we can shine for Him!



My Spain process is kinda on standby, it’s been truly a challenge to leave that on God’s hands and rest, make me rest, because I want to see the progress, to see the work, to see, TO SEE! Jeje but that’s exactly the point, I have to focus on believing and listening, following where he wants my focus on now… don’t get me wrong, I definitely still have Spain in my plans, but it’s amazing how we really don’t have anything under control, we only think we do, it’s a mind thing, so now I need to cling to the truth, that even though I don’t see it, I trust that God has control over all, and He brought me this far, and He will continue.



I'm also playing with a team, I've played with some of them before, even before I was a christian, so I do pray that they see a difference, and that I can reflect His ways in and out of the field.
I miss you all, I can’t thank you enough for your support!!! God is using you as an amazing tool for encouragement and energy! You pomp me, to know that you trust that piece of your heart to me, that I will continue in obedience doing all that God would guide me to do! It’s really a privilege and responsibility! You are in my prayers, and please do write to me for praise reports, any prayer requests or anything, I love e-mails! Jeje


Finally I just wanted to share this story with you all. The last time I was here, I was working in a school, where several of my family members work or study. To my joy I went to visit and met the new guy, Rodrigo, who is working there now. He is completely on fire for the Lord!! This is such an answer to prayer! Then Ivan, who works there as well, he’s married and with a little boy, asked me to share with him my testimony, that he wants to change his life around, that he wants to fill that emptiness. Wow! Wouldn’t we all love for more people to be that open! So it was awesome to share with him and to see fruit in the school. Please pray for him!
