I started on May reading, trying to keep up with the reading plan
I started yesterday in Numbers 32 from verse 1- 6 got me. I realized they stayed reubenites, gadites, and half of Manasseh stayed on the east side of the Jordan. They did not cross into the Promised Land, and that really stood out to me. What kept coming to my mind was: why did they stay on the other side? The east of the Jordan, the east of the Jordan. When I connected it, I realized they stayed there out of their own convenience and they didn't want to abandon their old life. They wanted what looked good, just like what happened to Lot—everything looked beautiful at first, until he ended up in Sodom and settled there But I went deeper, and they remind me of people who give halfway, people who even when there is already a clear goal, when they have been told: for you get this, but you have to let go your old ways your old life. That's what happened to Lot wife " she didn't want to let go I couldn’t help but switch between English and Spanish, and from Spanish to English 😅😅😅😅😅

It got me amazed
Ok.. sometimes I read the Word in Spanish and I found something, then jump to English and got something else the same chapter Exmp: I'm studying about Holy Spirit, and then somehow The Lord keeps bringing me the story of Jesus and Nicodemus in the old popular version of the Spanish language Bible one phrase of the chapter stuck in me "born again", then I just jumped to the English language ( I'm reading NLT version), this phrase of John 3: 2 caught my attention After dark one evening, he came to speak to Jesus clicked in me We're in dark when we're in our mother's womb, we don't have any shade of light. Jesus tells Nicodemus, that he being the a religious leader supposed to understand these secrets ( like my son' voice: bro, you didn't know this. Where are you been") 😆😆😆. Thank God, and the Holy Spirit for showed me these things in both languages 🙏 🙌 😆

Tonight
Hey family I stumbled onto something in the word that I had known before but forgot it’s significance. This not only helps you win the Battle but it removes the temptation to make it even easier Also let’s talk about the difference between a trail and temptation and how the enemy will try to use them simultaneously to get you to fall. See you soon.

Less Talk and More Reading
Hey this is your friendly reminder not to talk about the Bible more than you read it. This hit me, because I spent all day talking about the Bible but as I’m getting ready to rest and go to sleep… I haven’t read my Bible today! 😬 We can spend more time talking about Jesus than we do talking to Jesus… if you want to be religious and powerless… that is the formula. All word and no power… just talk about God but never walk in the discipline to actually seek God. And No, watching the Chosen or House of David does not count 🙄

😅😅😅 watching the chosen and the house of David don't count( that was funny) I haven't finished the 2nd season of house of David. I want to watch season 6 of the chosen.. there's a Brazilian show of the Bible, that I was watching called Moses and the 10th commandments. I think they have the other stories of the Bible; I'm seeing pieces of book of Daniel, some of Elijah, when he confront the Baal prophets.

Change Starts from Within
I heard a quote a couple days ago that really stuck with me. "Respecting personal boundaries is also respecting someones choice not to change." You cannot want someones success more than they want it. Well you can, but what ends up happening is you're frustrated and angered and they're left despising or resenting you. A couple facts are... the areas that you see and want people to change in today, may not even be what God is working on currently. If you look back on your own life, did the greatest shifts happen when you were being pressured or corrected? Or did they come in your time of self reflection? Did you find that someone correcting you and explaining all your missteps shifted your life OR did you find that as people modeled correct behavior you had gradual change that you still see fruit from today? We cannot change people, think about how much you want to change yourself and you're still having problems. What we can do is love people and walk with people and be a sounding board as God reveals and directs. What are your thoughts?

I got that particular phase with my father. I learned that you can't push who doesn't want to help themselves. Like my pastor said to me pray don't push with words 🙏

But, can I say that He letting me see what He's doing with my father. it's like I feel it inside me. Like you asked about the phases or seasons and I said in our call I'm learning, to listen, to obey, to pay attention too, but to be quiet and observing ( watching Me work and be quiet lol phase or season) .... this one of my testimony... Last year I remember I used to pray: Lord let me see or show me You're moving around me, or something like that. Sometime last year I was reading the book of Exodous wasn't my plan, but somehow I got there. And I got on the part when God was saying Pharoah was too stubborn and prideful, and that stick with me. Got off from work, and then heading to my parent's house to pickup my son. I was praying my way down to my parent's, and everything was quiet for a moment, and I heard this voice in my head lol, I quoted 😄: this is your father, and I could see in my mind what I was reading about Pharoah, and God saying he's prideful, like the whole page stood up in front of me, while I was driving. And wow I just feel what I felt that early morning (I was daydreaming for a second lol, He was letting me read, and I was driving, and receiving all in that moment split seconds ). I had a whole page in from of me, it was not like the Bible was reading. Tell him that I said so. And the story of why He said that, it's another testimony 😄😄😄😄.
