Getting back on track!

hey hey!!!

I am gonna start with this illustration that i have heard:

"... that are people willing to cook but they don't know how. Then they go and buy a recipe book and good kitchen tools (equipments). They also go ahead and buy all the food material they need for cooking. Some even re-model their kitchen so they will feel more comfortable. 

So... they got all these ... BUT! they don't read the recipe book. And then they wonder why cant they make a good meal!"

The christian life can be like some of those guys i just mentioned. We as christians got all equipment but we forget to read the guide. God has given us talents that will help us to share His good news among the ones we know. Loved ones or not. HE also gave us the manual - the Bible - showing how to use the equipment HE had provided. But some christians have that illusion of mission work its only for missionaries (you know... the ones that went to seminary school and went to a 3rd world country or something like that) but they don't realize that once you became a christian you also step up for a missionary carrier. 

In Matthew 28:19-20 Jesus says: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations... teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you..." . 

So... He doesn't say "send someone" He says "you GO". He says: "YOU get all the talents I had provided to you and do something in My Name". Use it for My GLORY He says.

If you do not use your specific tools properly, Who else will?

All this just for me to tell ya that I am back in Sao Paulo, and I am trying to get back on track (normal life) as my winter break is over, and i gotta go back to work and  to college as well. I fell like my ministry still in Aracaju as i can see me more involved in doing things. But for His own reasons i am in the third biggest city in the world, working in a pre-school, being part of a new church planting and fighting with my self on personal issues that shouldn't be on my heart or mind. 

But like i always say: "Life is good, and i am living it!" , because i know that even going through all THIS...  I am sure HE is shaping me for something bigger ahead in my journey.

Big hug to Y'all...

Allowed  HIM keep blessing your life.

Always in HIM,
