#WaitingIsTrusting
“But sometimes, beloved, we want God to do it now. We want God to fix it now. We want God to open the door now. We want God to send the answer now. We want God to send the check now. We of y'all catch that later. We want God, to send the check now. But the scripture says that those who wait upon the Lord, the biblical meaning of waiting doesn't mean that you're sitting around doing nothing. Waiting means trusting. Waiting means hoping. Waiting means remaining connected to god even when you cannot yet see what god is doing.”

#AbreTuCorazonAJesus
“Pero también, si tú estás en esta sala y tú nunca has recibido a Cristo en tu corazón, hoy él quiere, eres un caballero y quiere entrar a tu corazón, pero Él solamente espera que tú lo invites. Él quiere seducirte con su amor, pero él es un caballero y espera. Así que si tú has escuchado hoy su voz, no endurezcas tu corazón, recíbele. Es sencillamente abrir tu corazón y señor Jesús, reconozco que soy pecador, que soy pecadora, que por mis propios esfuerzos no puedo llegar a ti porque la barrera del pecado me impide. Pero yo reconozco que tu sangre preciosa me limpia de todo pecado y que a través de tu sacrificio, Señor, puedo regresar a ti y puedo tener esa comunión contigo y podemos volver a tener esta armonía, esta relación íntima y personal.”

#BaptismNewLife
“So what is baptism? It's a picture of a watery grave. As the person goes underwater, they're showing united with Jesus by faith and his death. Their old life is gone in him. He paid for all their sins on the cross. They come up out of the water like coming out of a grave. They're raised to a whole new life with Christ.”

“Let me change your thinking. Let me show you. Saul was my chosen instrument to take the message to the Gentiles, to kings, as well as to the people of Israel. Ananias, your job is to get up and go. And I'll do all the work, but share with him Jesus. And Saul Paul is gonna go and he's gonna take the message to the Gentiles. He's gonna speak before kings. He's gonna speak to the Jews. He's gonna tell everybody about Jesus, but you have to get up and go.”

#GodBeyondOurStrength
“This is why we can't measure God's ability by our energy. Just because you're tired doesn't mean God is tired. Just because you don't know what to do next doesn't mean God has run out of possibilities. Just because you cannot see the way does not mean God does not know the way. Beloved, I've had to declare that there are just some things I can't figure out. There are some things I just don't have enough. There are some things I just can't carry. But I'm just so glad to be connected to God who says, stop measuring me by your strength. My god. Your strength has limits. That's it. Mine does not. That's it. Your understanding has limits, but mine does not. Your resources are limited, but mine are not. Your vision has limits, but mine does not. And some of us need to remember that we serve a god that, is never exhausted by what exhausts us.”

#NotYourStrengthAlone
“We live in a culture that celebrates strength. People tell you be strong, push through, handle your business. Don't let anybody see you sweat. Keep going. And to believe it, I I do believe that's necessary in having a value of perseverance. But sometimes the most spiritual thing that you can say is, it's god, I cannot do this in my own strength. Because there are some things you were never supposed to carry by yourself.”

#DecideHoySeguir
“Ahora se nos presenta algo que nos exige tomar una decisión, tal vez una decisión real, por primera vez en nuestras vidas. Y Esta es la ¿Nos importa el Señor lo suficiente como para seguirlo o no? ¿A ti te importa Jesús lo suficiente como para seguirlo? ¿Cuáles son las consecuencias si lo hacemos? ¿Y Cuáles son las conse consecuencias si no? En este capítulo 8 de Mateo se está expresando esta historia. Jesús encontró dos personas que expresaron su decisión a seguirlo, pero antes se enfrentaron con la realidad del costo del discipulado. Jesús dejó claro de que seguirlo no es solamente un entusiasmo emocional, sino una vida de rendición, prioridad, compromiso.”

#AmortiguadoresDeLaVida
“No salgas a decir mira que me rompieron el ojito. No, asúmelo, recíbelo, guárdatelo, tú puedes. Como como varón sufre penalidades. Es OK, te van a golpear, recíbelo. En otras palabras, tú y yo somos como los amortiguadores del carro, los shocks. Cuando el carro tuyo viene, hay un hoyo y lo coge, ¿Qué hace el amortiguador? Recibe toda esa energía. ¿Porque? Porque si no existiera el amortiguador, el carro se desestabiliza y usted termina volteado.”
54s
#EntregaTotalACristo
“Pero yo reconozco que tu sangre preciosa me limpia de todo pecado y que a través de tu sacrificio, Señor, puedo regresar a ti y puedo tener esa comunión contigo y podemos volver a tener esta armonía, esta relación íntima y personal. Te entrego mi vida, te entrego mi corazón. Decido caminar contigo. Escribe mi nombre en el libro de la vida. Permíteme a partir de hoy crecer, conocer, amarte, ser, servirte, vivir para ti. Toma mis temores, toma mis angustias, toma mis necesidades y dame tú eso que solamente tú sabes dar Tu santa paz, tu presencia y la resolución a cada una de mis necesidades. Te pongo mi vida una vez más entre tus manos.”
63s
#CristoSobreLaComodidad
“Muchas personas desean las bendiciones de Cristo, pero no siempre están preparadas para las exigencias de la obediencia, el sacrificio y la abnegación que implica. El verdadero discipulado requiere poner poner a Cristo por encima de la comodidad. La comodidad personal, las expectativas familiares, los apegos mundanos, las ambiciones personales, todas esas cosas pasan a un segundo plano cuando tú decides seguir a Cristo. Jesús nunca ocultó el costo de seguirle, porque el compromiso genuino debe basarse en la verdad. Él es la verdad y no es la conveniencia. El viaje cristiano es uno de los más hermosos de rendición, de perseverancia y de lealtad a Cristo por encima de todo.”
