Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. (Psalm 16:11)
And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: (Colossians 2:10)
Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas

My god is fullness

The world is full of superficial religiosity and idolatry, but the church must proclaim the fullness of and in Christ. False doctrines had crept into the church in Colosse, but Paul presented the fullness of Christ as the incomparable gift and Lord of all. Life in Christ means redemption, salvation, and liberation, and His fullness infuses power. We must not seek to add new ingredients to Christianity, but be satisfied with the fullness of the Holy Spirit. God is the one who completes us in Christ for His glory. Read more...

Enrique Meneses Muñoz : Since I found JESUS on my aimless path, I can only say that my life found the path, the truth and the full life. I love you my LORD
What a beautiful testimony, Enrique! Finding Jesus on our path leads us to experience the fullness that only He can provide. As Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional, "To be filled with the Holy Spirit is to allow ourselves to be guided by Him and to be satisfied with His fullness." Just like the psalmist in Psalm 16:11, where he reminds us that in the presence of God there is fullness of joy, we can find that full life in Christ. May the peace and love of our Lord continue to guide your path!
Sabino Marroquin Lopez: I was like a ship: without direction and without destination, but today your Holy Spirit Lord, is the light that guides me on your path. Thank you my Lord, amen.
What a beautiful analogy, Sabino. Just as a rudderless ship finds direction with the light that guides it, we find our way in the light of the Holy Spirit that shows us the path of life. As Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas says, "Fullness is that which does not admit 'extras', it is the maximum. To be filled with the Holy Spirit is to allow ourselves to be guided by Him and to be satisfied with His fullness." Let us remember that in the presence of God we find that fullness and joy that we so need, as Psalm 16:11 reminds us. May the guidance and light of the Holy Spirit continue to illuminate your path, Sabino!
Francisco Diaz S.: Jesus Christ was born to redeem the world, to accept the rejected, to forgive the sinner, to raise the humble and reject the proud, he came to show the true path of truth and life. - Christ is salvation
What beautiful and profound words, Francisco. Jesus Christ certainly came to redeem, forgive, and show the true path of truth and life, as you mention. In the words of Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas, “Life in Christ means redemption, salvation, liberation… Only the blood of Christ was and continues to be sufficient.” Just as in Colossians 2:10 we are reminded that in Christ we find fullness and completeness. May we continue to recognize in Jesus the Savior who shows us the path to truth and eternal life. Blessings on your journey of faith, Francisco!
Kiria: Faith in Christ is NOT a religion. Idolatry has always existed from the Chaldeans and Egyptians to the present day, but the scriptures warn us that in the last days this would happen. Evil would increase and more people would love themselves and be extremely vane, and that is what we live. No one wants to seek the presence of God because they are only busy with themselves and the material things of this world. It is such a beautiful decision to seek the kingdom of God than the delights of this passing earth. Blessings.
Kiria, your words are very apt. As Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional, "Today's world, ruled by all kinds of egotists, is a den of superficial religiosity." It is important to remember the warnings of the Scriptures about idolatry and vanity that would prevail in the last days. In the midst of this reality, it is a valuable decision to seek the kingdom of God above the fleeting delights of this world, as you mention. May we continue to strengthen our faith in Christ, finding in Him the fullness and completeness that we need. May the peace and blessings of God accompany you in your search for His presence!
Karol🇨🇴: God wants us to live a full life, and we find that fullness in His presence. We must seek it and long for it. The presence of God gives us fullness of joy! Father, if we have you, we have everything. Jesus Christ, you are my fullness! 🙏🏼
Karol, what a beautiful comment! Finding fulfillment in the presence of God is an invaluable gift that fills us with joy and completes us. As Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions, "We must believe that nothing completes us more as human beings than the love of Christ and the Spirit of life in Him." Let us always remember that in Christ we find the fulfillment we need. May the search and longing for the presence of God continue to guide your life, Karol. May His love and joy fill your being!
Ruth Vives.: It is to delight in the gospel of God. Which is something simple since He created us and has mercy on us through His mercy and Holy Spirit. Glory to the Father and the Holy Spirit. God bless you. Amen.
What beautiful words, Ruth. To delight in the gospel of God is to find true fulfillment, as Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas reminds us in his devotional. We find in God’s mercy and Holy Spirit the guidance and comfort we need. As Psalm 16:11 mentions, in the presence of God there is fullness of joy. May we continue to glorify the Father and the Holy Spirit, finding in them the fullness and peace that only comes from God. May His blessing and love be with you always, Ruth!
