His Reflections: “Peace Wherever You Go, Angels…They are Always Watching Over You” Pt 2

His Reflections: “Peace Wherever You Go, Angels…They are Always Watching Over You” Pt 2

It has been two special weeks, friends visiting and different circumstances happening. Some writings delayed and well all pieces must come together to understand what is the learning from Father Almighty. Through out the whole process from young till today, I find myself intrigued every single day, reason why I share these stories and leaves me in awe all the time. It is in the how he places the people for you to meet and deliver the message. In the how He triggers the moments for a laughter or to share love with people that you do not even imagine, whether you have lived a circumstance in good or in a bad moment. I know He smiles all the time when you are just in the awe of the triggered moment. 

I met in these weeks several people, one of them is Farell and I hope it os spelled correctly. She work in the Broward County Clerk Court house…not the best way to meet people…yet, rewarding because there is a purpose. A loving lady and very helpful, the words preeminence of love came upon. But, What is the preeminence of love?  “Without love as the center of your faith, your trajectory in office will be less than it could be otherwise. For you to be influential, your spouse, family members, and colleagues must know in their heart of hearts that, first and foremost, you are a loving person.” “Preeminence (or pre-eminence if you love hyphens) comes from the Latin word praeeminere for to “rise above or excel.” Her desk is filled with all these loving words of God and has always special words as she speaks and whether it is a special message from her mother, a moment of joy for grandchild or simply a heads up for something in particular, it is the ease of the moment that she brought a beautiful smile to my heart. There is still something to be completed there, but here is the thing, I think Father Almighty has his way to meet people and even though it may not be in favor of my flesh or blood, it is in favor of a purpose from above. I guess my next meeting to resolve a minor issue… I will be meeting a very special and important person who has helped youth and developing people for a better future. 

It is interesting as I connect the points from the last part and this part as I walk this road, I was listening to K love which was an interview about youth and young adults, about university campus and what is being done. I cant recall the university, however, it spoke about what I mentioned above developing a better future, speaking about how many student are in colleges and universities who are thirsty and hungry to find  guidance, peace, love, purpose, which comes back to the Latin word praeeminere for to “rise above or excel.” Here is the thing, how can we rise above or excel when our hearts are not complete when we still miss long this special love that comes from above, when there are so many unanswered question and we walk of road where not many explain. It is an inheritance of what good, of what is necessary, specially for youngsters. It is a time that many are opening there hearts to receive love and find wisdom.“The Bible often uses metaphors for conveying wisdom and truth. One example of this is “sowing seeds” of love and righteousness that will blossom into beautiful things later in life. This reminds us to think beyond the present to the future and how our actions and choices will impact tomorrow and beyond.”loved this mentioned in Biblestudytoolscom. It is beautiful to see how people evolve, how they think…I recently got to see a beautiful display of people at the hospital with my moms surgery with nurses and doctors. Research is increased, technology is applied, new systems and creativity used. It is the impulse, that drive to move forward. The ramification of evolving into what they want in their hearts and delivering a message that confirms such beauty that it is time to evolve in the biggest need or what you yearn in your heart.

There is so much divine presence in this time, unselfish and abounding love. Unchangeable, unsurpassable moments from Father Almighty. It may not be that it is a blessing. But, it is in the acceptance of circumstances whether bad or good, that it is to be grateful, thankful because in bad we are saved, rescued from whatever circumstance that may have happened and in good we are rescued, saved for better preserved either way we are blessed. It is an infinite value preeminence of love that Father has for us human beings  over other creatures. It is a civic duty as well, the responsibilities of a citizen, a human being. Many can say how well they were treated, or not nicely treated, it actually goes both ways  the way one behaves matters, they wat you respond back to an attitude matters as well and therefore yielding a question mark to the person who misbehaved as it did not trigger anything in you.“Here’s the deal: God didn’t intend for us to live in isolation. He specifically designed us to crave (and thrive in) relationship with others. We’re our best selves when we’re experiencing life’s highs and lows with other people.” “God expects us to take responsibility for our actions—instead of refusing to take responsibility and blaming God (or others) for our mistakes—and He aids those who do (Proverbs 28:13). Every human being will have to give an account for his or her life and actions (Galatians 6:4-5; Hebrews 4:13).” Loved this from lifehopeandtruth blog 

He specifically designed us to crave (and thrive in) relationship with others. We’re our best selves when we’re experiencing life’s highs and lows with other people.” I want to come back to this part, I experienced something so beautiful some weeks ago, love taking movies into account. We went to Surfside driving through I love praying as we drive. As we moved back to head home, we drove through several places. I had a recollection of the movie Creed…it was a Creed moment of triumph” with rumble and tumble. I saw all these youth and young adults on motorcycles and cuadricars, tricars(4 wheels, 3 wheels) passing by the streets, they were opened by police cars and as they went through the police cars followed all making a noise and a triggered moment of God within boundaries of taking care so nobody may get hurt. Not everybody loves the noise, not everybody accepts it, The beautiful moment was that I did not know whether to go or stop so I happened to be caught in the back part. However in that moment I saw two of them impose their hand and to go. My eye caught that particular moment in the middle of the rumbling and my heart filled with joy seeing these youngster impose their hands. A triggered movement for God,  and that what if’s in guidance to find peace and love from heaven. In the same way, thoughts come upon…not everybody will accept, not every person will be open but the inheritance is there. Change comes with triggering a movement, opening spaces, touching hearts and a new is coming to be fit, such beauty in vibration and the wait is over, together in humbleness. 

There is so much to write or speak about when it comes to God’s work. Testimonies  How he places together I recently had two friends over, one of them a Dr who works in the military hospital and the other a retired officer, who is the person who has helped me translate the books in Spanish and other writings. I met this young lady by WhatsApp video and Google video meetings. We have spoken for so long, her parents died from Covid and it is what such a incredible moment to meet after I believe two years. God transformed her sadness, her guilt and so much more. The beauty of transformation, from how she was to how she is today is amazing and the smile today where she is expecting a baby. She came in and out to visit and travel as well to new York. But the amazing part, how Father took sadness and blessed her with so much happiness and now that longing for her parents was transformed into joy knowing that they are with her as Angels all the time. She no longer sees the sadness but the joy in them and with God. The second part of this testimony I will share in my next writing and that is …with God you never stop learning, How Father Almighty places moments where you do not know what will happen…but that is for my next writing as it is a long testimony of the love they received in New York and the learning for the future.

So many testimonies in this writing, My moms surgery brought my brother to visit. The day before leaving, we drove home…I wanted to say an early Happy Birthday to my friend and thought lets just visit her, surprise her. My brother was a little reluctant because of the time but at the end we did. I love Father Almighty when he works his plan out. So, we went upstair and visited and she was with her boyfriend and it ended up such a beautiful moment. My brother is not so spiritual, but has encountered those moments where God just leaves in a “oh” moment. There was a beautiful message of love that somebody needed and I ask ed my brother to share his testimony. I love that testimony, He and a cousin where in a car a day after a bar they had visited. In that time, my brother had a very old small pickup truck. They had encountered another adult youngster who asked them to help him get home and he lived in the outer part of the city. So they said ok, thinking oh my it is far…they took the journey. By the time they were there, there was a sound in the tire, a punctured tire so they dropped off the person and wanted rapidly to head home. They realized the tire had a “pencil hole” like  in the tire. The person told them to wait, and my brother as well as my cousin wanted to really leave but the guy told them please wait. As he went in and out of the place he brought them back a bible with a scripture highlighted and written with dedication. And told them they would be fine. Funny enough they made it back home and had not noticed what he had underlined in the Bible which was to have faith as Father would bring them back home safe. Faith, Hebrews 11:1 – “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” At the end, the message was delivered from the gentleman in my friends house, with a beautiful testimony from my brother, and something to look forward and a hug for my friends birthday!

To wrap up this writing, I wanted to share and end this writing with the following: My brother and I went to drop off my dad a day ago at the airport. I do not really watch the news but as we drove there, the lines were huge, delay in airlines and terminals.  I had not seen something like that in Fort Lauderdale Airport. We did make it and there were so many police officers, sheriffs, Fire Rescuers and authorities. My brother got my father checked in and after we left to find out about something that had happened there. The job that authorities, police officers, sheriffs, pilots and all who assist, help, to protect, They are amazing. People who are willing to give up their life for others, those are the people who make a difference in our lives. So, to wrap up the word “praeeminere for to “rise above or excel.” A greeting, a celebration to those who rise above, who excel in what they do, and surpass by giving their lives if they have to. Being respectful goes both ways.

Romans 13:1-5 MSG 

To Be a Responsible Citizen

13 1-3 Be a good citizen. All governments are under God. Insofar as there is peace and order, it’s God’s order. So live responsibly as a citizen. If you’re irresponsible to the state, then you’re irresponsible with God, and God will hold you responsible. Duly constituted authorities are only a threat if you’re trying to get by with something. Decent citizens should have nothing to fear.

3-5 Do you want to be on good terms with the government? Be a responsible citizen and you’ll get on just fine, the government working to your advantage. But if you’re breaking the rules right and left, watch out. The police aren’t there just to be admired in their uniforms. God also has an interest in keeping order, and he uses them to do it. That’s why you must live responsibly—not just to avoid punishment but also because it’s the right way to live.

Ecclesiastes 7:8 NIV 

8 The end of a matter is better than its beginning,
    and patience is better than pride.

James 1:2-27 MSG

Faith Under Pressure

2-4 Consider it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come at you from all sides. You know that under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors. So don’t try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way.

5-8 If you don’t know what you’re doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help. You’ll get his help, and won’t be condescended to when you ask for it. Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought. People who “worry their prayers” are like wind-whipped waves. Don’t think you’re going to get anything from the Master that way, adrift at sea, keeping all your options open.

9-11 When down-and-outers get a break, cheer! And when the arrogant rich are brought down to size, cheer! Prosperity is as short-lived as a wildflower, so don’t ever count on it. You know that as soon as the sun rises, pouring down its scorching heat, the flower withers. Its petals wilt and, before you know it, that beautiful face is a barren stem. Well, that’s a picture of the “prosperous life.” At the very moment everyone is looking on in admiration, it fades away to nothing.

12 Anyone who meets a testing challenge head-on and manages to stick it out is mighty fortunate. For such persons loyally in love with God, the reward is life and more life.

13-15 Don’t let anyone under pressure to give in to evil say, “God is trying to trip me up.” God is impervious to evil, and puts evil in no one’s way. The temptation to give in to evil comes from us and only us. We have no one to blame but the leering, seducing flare-up of our own lust. Lust gets pregnant, and has a baby: sin! Sin grows up to adulthood, and becomes a real killer.

16-18 So, my very dear friends, don’t get thrown off course. Every desirable and beneficial gift comes out of heaven. The gifts are rivers of light cascading down from the Father of Light. There is nothing deceitful in God, nothing two-faced, nothing fickle. He brought us to life using the true Word, showing us off as the crown of all his creatures. to be a faithful witness, testifying of the witness of Jesus with their words and deeds. It is not necessary to die physically to become a “martyria.”It only requires being a faithful witness; the cost will differ for each person, depending on their circumstances. 

“The “doulos” (servant) who would be a faithful witness must also hear the words of the prophecy and keep the things which are written in the Revelation. To read is to acquire the proposition of the Revelation. To hear is to understand its truth and its ramifications. Once this proposition is read and understood—that in order to be blessed, believers must be a faithful witness—the next thing required is action.

It would make no sense for Jesus to give to His sheep a message to read, and write it in a language no one could speak. Similarly, it would make no sense to give a message that could be read but not understood. The Revelation is intended to be read and understood. Finally, it would make no sense for Jesus to give His followers a command to do something which they were not capable of doing. No human can take actions in the past or the future. Actions may only be taken in the present. Therefore, while the Revelation reveals future events, its emphasis is not for His servants to unravel the future. It is, rather, to spur His bond-servants to take actions now, in the present, to be faithful witnesses deserving of His reward.”

Philippians 1:9-11MSG

9-11 So this is my prayer: that your love will flourish and that you will not only love much but well. Learn to love appropriately. You need to use your head and test your feelings so that your love is sincere and intelligent, not sentimental gush. Live a lover’s life, circumspect and exemplary, a life Jesus will be proud of: bountiful in fruits from the soul, making Jesus Christ attractive to all, getting everyone involved in the glory and praise of God.
