This is my response to what I have heard from God, I don’t think I have great or even interesting things to say, either I have the gift of writing (which you could probably tell by now); but at the same time, I have this desire to write that I can’t put away by trying to convince myself that I am not capable. Because this desire doesn’t go away and matches the voice of God, I will take a chance, and here is where it starts. Help me God, Thank you Jesus.
If you are here and know me personally, you probably know what to expect, but if you don’t, let me tell you. When I read the bible, I meditate about it ( by meditate, I mean sometimes spending days thinking about that text), pray about it (most of the time), and talk to friends about it; sometimes, what I believe are great ideas come out; I think to myself, this could be a blessing to many people; This is what mostly you are going to get here, ideas, doubts, complaints and prayers, of somebody who is truly trying to bless you by hopefully helping you get closer to Jesus, to your real self and to those around you that you have been called to love. Basically, you will read a guy who is fighting for his family as we navigate just like you, on a very stormy life, guided by the winds of the Holy Spirit, always knowing that Jesus is in the boat.
My plan is to write here one or two times a week, in the future maybe more, but I believe that is what I can do for now. Most of what I will write here will be in English but eventually, I will write also in Portuguese or Spanish (thank you Mom and Dad for gifting me with languages), as a pastor and missionary, there might be some things I would like to communicate specifically with those that speak those languages. Thanks for being here with me.
Looking forward to what's coming!
