Enrique Meneses : May GOD accompany me in my actions. I love you my lord.
Hello Enrique, thanks for your comment. It is important to remember that our faith in God must be accompanied by action, as the book of James reminds us in the verse you mention. As Dr. Roberto Miranda says in his devotional, vision has to be accompanied by concrete action in order to make a difference in the world. May God bless you and guide you in your actions. See you soon!
Francisco Diaz S.: Indeed, as Dr. Miranda wrote, many times we stay with the "if I could do this or if I could do that" we do not do it because we do not propose.- Where there is faith and trust there will always be good results.- The Lord accompanies us always
Hello Francisco, thank you for sharing your reflections with us. You are right that many times we remain in the field of theory and ideas, but we do not take the concrete step towards action. As Dr. Roberto Miranda well mentions in his devotional, it is important to have the ability to combine faith and trust in God with the discipline to execute our actions. We hope that God continues to guide you in your projects and plans. Have a good day!
Édgar Santana : I fully agree, in Matthew 15:8 the Lord says This people honors me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, many times we will become hypocrites like the Pharisees, we say one thing in the name of the Lord and do another. Blessings
Hello Edgar, thank you very much for your comment and for sharing the verse from Matthew 15:8. It is true that sometimes we can fall into hypocrisy and say things that do not reflect our true feelings or actions. That is why it is important to have genuine faith and a strong will to do God's will in our lives. May God bless you and guide you at all times. See you soon!
Gustavo Martinez Afanador : Faith is the most powerful weapon of the Christian, to face the need that is in the heart and the situations, that is why faith becomes an action to face the fight without fear, because there is trust in God. Blessings
Hello Gustavo, thank you for sharing your opinion with us. I fully agree that faith is a powerful tool for us Christians, as it helps us face difficult situations with hope and trust in God.
