The Blog Will Continue Under a New Name, Emphasizing that I’m an Incurable Fool!

Full retraction of all previous blog content as the words of an ignorant fool. Declaration of a new purpose and an intention to now burn myself out following it.

Jesus is the good shepherd

Jesus is the good shepherd. The good shepherd will never abandon his sheep. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep, to deliver them from danger. Jesus has done this for us.

The Sheep and the Door of their Fold

John 10:7-10: Here, Jesus changes his metaphor a bit. He still calls us his sheep who trust in him. But now he is identified as the door of our fold, the place where we are safe. Just like in the previous metaphor, everyone else who came before Jesus and tried to lead the sheep were thieves and robbers. And once…

Las Ovejas y La Puerta de su Redil

Jesús se describe como la puerta del redil, asegurando la protección y guía de sus verdaderas ovejas, que solo siguen su voz y no la de los ladrones. Contrasta su misión de dar vida eterna con la de los ladrones, que buscan robar y destruir. Solo a través de él se obtiene vida abundante y eterna.

An important decision about my articles

The most important lesson of the last six months of my life is: to be who I am without reservation, without restraint. I’m a teacher, not a mushroom. And I participate in a Hispanic church. Therefore, I will write in Spanish first.

Encouragers/ Exhorters: Be who you are!

Each member has his or her own gifts, which are not the same as those of other members. The Church needs all our gifts. We are to be the persons that God has made us to be fully, unreservedly, completely in proportion to the faith. To Encouragers/ Exhorters, God says: “Be who you are!” The rest of us would be in a bad place without you!

Warning: Spiritual Encouragement/ Exhortation Causes Paroxysms!

If we are doing what we are supposed to be doing, we should expect to see some earthquakes, volcanoes, seizures, fires, and other things that drastically change the lives of the people around us–though in a good direction–toward love and good deeds.

Advertencia: ¡Aliento Espiritual / Exhortación Causa Paroxismos!

Si estamos haciendo lo que se supone que debemos hacer, debemos esperar ver algunos terremotos, volcanes, convulsiones, incendios y otras cosas que cambian drásticamente la vida de las personas que nos rodean, aunque en una buena dirección, hacia el amor y las buenas obras.
