: Thank God for your life and Thank you for this reflection that God placed in your heart, to share with us today, it is real!!!
We should act in a natural way every day without being forced to be good, on the contrary as the word says without looking at who, always act with good, know how to express ourselves and never win over people with vain words or empty cisterns, but with love and testimony that we are Followers of Christ.
It touched my heart, because as human beings we are not perfect, but let this not be a justification for not doing what is right before God and being the best at all times, even with our different circumstances, let us always ask God to give us Wisdom to to be what He wants us to be.
Thank you God Bless you always.

Francisco Diaz S.: We have examples of many Christians who have dedicated their lives and their ministry to protecting and helping their neighbors in need.- In Cartagena de Indias (Colombia) the Jesuit priest San Pedro Claver who protected black slaves is venerated.- Mother Teresa of Calcutta is another worthy example.-Mercy is a divine gift that we must cultivate.

In the reflection of Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas, the importance of living a life that manifests the love and grace of God in a natural way is highlighted, as the examples you mention did. May we cultivate that divine gift of mercy in our lives, as 1 Peter 3:15 also mentions by urging us to be prepared to give a reason for our hope with meekness and reverence. May the Lord continue to guide you on your path to follow the example of those who have shown God's mercy to those in need. God bless you!

Amen.Ruth, your words reflect a deep devotion to honoring and recognizing God at all times, without stopping in obedience to His will.

May the Lord continue to guide you in your walk of faith and may His face shine upon you, as mentioned in Numbers 6:25. May God bless you and strengthen you in your walk of faith!
Iris: In these times when we are all pointed out by the bad testimony of many Christians, false prophets, Christians who live by emotion and where the word is not preached as the ancient path,
If Jesus became poor to live among his people, sacrificing his life for us,
Because we, as his children born again, repent, do not repay that love, fulfilling his commandments to the letter, we do not do it because we lack love, like that of Jesus.
When we live as true children of God, we want to imitate him in everything,
Starting to accept our mistakes and forgiving your enemies from the heart,
And every day asking to change everything in us that does not allow us to be better people, being more humble,
The only way is to start fasting, to break the flesh, accept and renounce that old man that has me stuck and does not allow me to be a good testimony before others, we are Christians but we are selfish, haughty, arrogant, being bad examples before others. the rest.
For people who walk in the world, they think that we must be perfect, not make mistakes, and accept everything good or bad.
That is why as true Christians we must love our neighbors as ourselves.
Do good without looking at who, with love and dedication.

Do good without looking at who, with love and dedication.Iris, your reflections are deep and full of truth. In your comment, you highlight the importance of living a life that reflects the love and dedication of Jesus, as Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional. It is crucial that as children of God we seek to imitate Christ in everything, being humble, forgiving from the heart and seeking to change that in us that does not reflect His love. As you mention, it is essential to love your neighbor, do good without looking at whom, and live in dedication and love towards others. May we, as mentioned in 1 Peter 3:15, always be prepared to give a reason for our hope with meekness and reverence. May the Lord guide you on your path of faith and transformation. God bless you and strengthen you in your quest to live according to the love of Christ!
Heidy : Tremendous word, I understand that it is a clear invitation that day by day we seek to be perfected by the word being imitators of Jesus, so that his love in us may testify his presence being light in the midst of darkness.
