What now?









PART II

SUMMARY

Good job!

This is the second stop in your journey. Ten days ago, you made a decision. ¿How did it go? Now, it is time to take the necessary steps to carry it through. It will be different for everyone. But no decision is free of work on our part. Will it be to shed some of those extra pounds that bother you? Will it be to apply to that certain university? Or be part of the worship team? Will it be to be more patient with your husband and children? How about showing empathy to that mother who just lost her child? Or write a book? Do now what you did before; draw it or write it. Be creative. Pray and ask God what you need to do to reach your goal. He will take you step by step. Then, go on the next section.

We'll be back Monday with Part III. Ruth's reward.

...esa montaña que tienes por delante.

Mark 11:12-14; 20-25 12  Al día siguiente, cuando salieron de Betania, tuvo hambre.  13  Y viendo desde lejos una higuera que tenía hojas, se acercó para ver si hallaba en ella algo. Cuando fue a ella, no encontró nada más que hojas porque no era tiempo de higos.  14  Entonces Jesús dijo a la higuera: “¡Nunca jamás coma nadie de tu fruto!”. Y lo oyeron sus discípulos. 20  Por la mañana, pasando por allí vieron que la higuera se había secado desde las raíces.  21  Entonces Pedro, acordándose, le dijo: —Rabí, he aquí la higuera que maldijiste se ha secado. 22  Respondiendo Jesús les dijo: —Tengan fe en Dios.  23  De cierto les digo que cualquiera que diga a este monte: “Quítate y arrójate al mar”, y que no dude en su corazón sino que crea que será hecho lo que dice, le será hecho.  24  Por esta razón les digo que todo por lo cual oran y piden, crean que lo han recibido y les será hecho.  25  Y cuando se pongan de ...

the big mountain up ahead.

Mark 11:12-14; 20-25 12  On the following day, when they came from Bethany, he was hungry.  13  And seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see if he could find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.  14  And he said to it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard it... 20  As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away to its roots.  21  And Peter remembered and said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered.”  22  And Jesus answered them, “Have faith in God.  23  Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.  24  Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer,...

that "Eurika" moment.

There are no “new revelations”. Scriptures have revealed all that there is. It just takes some of us a little longer to discover them. It’s called a Eurika moment. And when it happens, we slap our forehead and say, “Duh!” Ever had that happen? It just did for me (once again) this week as I had coffee with a friend. A little bit of background. It turns out that years ago, a loved mentor told me that salvation and the Kingdom were two different things. I didn’t quite understand it then, but as time went by, I tried to reconcile the concept by finding Bible quotes and verses to support it, and how. Over the years, I tried to come up with several explanations. Influenced by my old fundamental teachings, which held that although salvation was the same and freely available to everyone who accepted Christ, there were different levels of rewards according to one's level of faithfulness. One possibility was to compare the Kingdom of God with feudal earthly kingdoms, where we find courtier...
