Living offering

“My greatest proof that I have totally given myself to this Work is that none of my children were taught to wait for an inheritance, to be selfish or to serve themselves.”
I travel all over the world and I don’t know much of these countries that I see other than the natural beauty of each particular place that causes me to fall in love every time I’m there. My hobby is taking pictures and saving them on my computer, which, by the way, is always giving me memory problems.
I’m in love with my wife who doesn’t leave my side for a minute. Esther doesn’t need a lot of makeup, much less plastic surgery. I’m reminded of her beauty even with a simple brush of her hair! Our children are the fruit of our love. I love being with them, but they know not to expect an inheritance.
I don’t have anything and neither do they. Everything I have belongs to the Church and I say this with a pure heart. I do what I do for God, not for myself or for my family. My children know that if they don’t use their faith, all is lost!
When I married off my daughters, still very young and inexperienced, I did it by faith, knowing that because they were marrying men of God everything would work out. Today, I see my sons-in-law as if they were my own sons.
I practically live in an airplane. Esther has learned how to have our luggage packed in a couple of minutes. Just when we’re about to get used to the time difference, we have to travel again, and it’s at this time that our age catches up with us.
I get fired up with the thought of spending time with my colleagues in faith. They’re more than brothers to me. We have the same faith, the same goals and the same ideals. We’re all equal and share the same joys and sorrows because we’re one in the Lord. They know I’m a man like any other man and they still respect me. They respect me because they see the action of the Holy Spirit through me. We are simple, we are who we are, we like to be comfortable and wear comfortable clothes without worrying about name brands.
I leap like a child whenever I receive a revelation from God and I can’t keep it to myself, not even for 5 minutes. I call everyone to pass along my inspirations. I don’t keep anything up my sleeve. What God has given me I’ve passed along and will continue doing so.
We are idealists. The only thing I’ve asked God is to win souls for my Lord. In addition, to all those who believe, amen! Those who don’t believe … So what? I couldn’t care less about those who don’t want to believe.
My greatest proof that I have totally given myself to this Work is that none of my children were taught to wait for an inheritance, to be selfish or to serve themselves. I didn’t bring them up for my own glory but for the glory of He who called me for this Work.
Our lives are living offerings on God’s Altar.
God bless those who believe!
