Francis Chan


Francis Chan is amazing as well.

Christianity is not the religion of Prosperity and nothing else.


Matt Chandler is solid.

What's going on?

Random snaps:

- Decided to drop out of University. I'll find what, where, how, I'm going to do, and after that, I'll get my studies and complements to that.

The other way around just wasn't working.

- That being said, right now my focus is on Sports-related Entrepreneurship.

Still don't know exactly what, where, how, but I'm working on it. I do believe God's sending some signals I'm on the right path. The way my trip to the US is shaping up is the major one of them.

- There has been a couple of down, lazy days here and there, but my life has been a chaos of responsibilities piling up. So many good things. And I keep saying this: everything just falls in place, every cranny filed with a meeting, practice, work, worship, hanging out with friends. There's an intelligence behind all these things falling in place, carefully stacked. There's just too much coincidence for it to be just that. God keeps answering my prayers, directing and organizing my life.

- Spiritually, God's been showing me how incredibly blessed and spoiled I am. Not just what's mentioned above, not just the incredible feeling of fulfillment of living a life to Him, but every little thing I take for granted when I wake up in the morning and go to bed at night.

Having amazing, loving parents, friends who flock to me, even when I don't remember them, having food, WATER, car, gas, HEALTH, hobbies, security, a RELATIONSHIP with Him, WORK(!).

Some of these things I now look to in wonder! WOW! My parents give me so much, they are absolutely stunning people, they spoil me as if I was an only child. Going to bed at night without feeling hungry, being able to spend money on restaurant food, spending money on crappy snacks, WOW WOW, do you have any idea how lucky that is on this world?? During these tough times having a car and money to put gas in it, allowing me to go wherever I want without needing to think twice if I have the money to do it... Health! Not only I was born with perfect health, but I play a sport that is a constant hazard to my well-being, and yet, I can go through my days without almost any repercussions of that. Some soreness here and there, but it could be so much worse. Having some spare times to watch Football, some Tv Shows, youtube videos, to spend with friends. Being born in a country where I don't have to fear for my life or for my faith. The fact God chased me to be a part of Him, and I was able to see this. How He's been teaching the Truth about this world! Wow! Work! Lately I'm being called for work even when my supervisors only need 3 or 4 people! I'm being placed in front of 100 something people! 

Dang!

I'm so spoiled!!!! How can I ever want or desire anything more? And yet I do, and I ask ask ask, giving Him barely my obedience...

Knowing I'm such an ungrateful brat should make me feel like crap, and it does... Then I remember, the fact that I'm a sinner is a given. The fact that I know it, and I'm completely willing to let Him change me, is what matters.

It's not easy. Every day I'm more and more convinced the path I chose is so effing hard! I almost would rather my friends didn't have to go through this. But it's the only right path. Everything else is just sand and vanishes way too soon.

"What's it worth for a man to gain everything in this world, and forfeit his soul?"

I'm so incredibly blessed... Dang!

Ok, ok, maybe I'm forgetting a bit about this blog.

Not completely, though! :)
