Water starts from white snow (it’s holy and pure, that’s when we were born from your mother’s womb). It melts and it comes down with a new hope to this world on the way it rushes thru the stones of the mountains. Running down finding new things on the way poked by thorns and tossed by stones. On the way, it helps the fishes other species (people around them; preaching the gospel). Its goal is to reach the ocean. A lot of them don’t make it to the sea, they dry out. They been blocked by that dam (worldly things) other (luxuries things against God’s will).

As the dam tries to stop this water, it breaks the stops and runs over to seek its destiny. Which is the sea. Once it reaches its destiny, there is the God of Almighty holding a Golden crown says my daughter/son you have finished your race.

Blessed is he who followed the Christ.

She Won’t Stop Doing Good

On my first job when I worked in a retail store, they had overstock during Christmas. My co-worker let me purchase some items as low as fifty cents. It was perfect because I couldn’t afford to buy nice things for my cousins and relatives with the kind of money I was making.

I bought a lot, but still there was more left. Besides, I didn’t know if my teen cousins would like the things I picked out. So, I called my aunt and she came to the store right away. My co-worker wouldn’t let her enter the room and my aunt insisted on talking to her, herself. My aunt explained that she knows many families she can help if she is allowed to purchase the items. I was surprise when my co-worker agreed with a smile.

As we reached home, a four year old boy who lived across street came over. He had no socks and no jacket on in freezing weather. My aunt pulled out a new pair of socks and put a new jacket on him that she just bought from the retail store. She gave him the full package of socks and said, “Richard, I don’t want to see you without the socks and jacket on when you are playing outside.” By this time, these things were common to see in this home. Moreover, children loved hanging out in my aunt’s house. Sometimes, she had to ask them to go home and she would say, “Go home, you don’t live here.”

If all this was not enough, one day we received a call from the neighbors’ house. Richard’s mother stated that she had to take her husband to the hospital because he had a minor stroke. So she left her three children for my aunt to babysit. My aunt cooked some food and decided to leave it at their house before they returned home. When we entered their house it seemed as if it had never been cleaned. There was garbage everywhere! There was an open loaf of bread on the floor and cat litter next to it.

The Bible Study Night

cloud nightOn the night of the Bible study, it was raining and the lush green trees outside of Todd and Elissa’s house grabbed my attention. As I made my way to the entrance, I stood there for few seconds just to enjoy the cool wet greenery.

When I entered their house, there was a pleasant aroma of food that Elissa had cooked. I couldn’t wait to eat; there is something about the rainy weather makes you hungrier. When we started to eat, the food was just delicious. I smiled inside thinking, “is this party because of my new car?”

The Bible study started, one by one everyone read scriptures from the Bible. In the middle of this study, a girl went into the kitchen and made a cake. I thought, “I wonder how it will taste, I want to eat the cake.” Read more »
